ShoesMarc by Marc Jacobs studded mouse flats in grey

Despite almost losing my voice I still had to give a little presentation at work on Wednesday, so dragged myself out of bed to go in. I wanted to be comfortable more than anything, so wore a nice tee under my pencil skirt and of course a big scarf to keep me warm.

Here's what I wore to work today:
Scarf: Cotton On white pashmina
Bracelets: the usual plus gifted Ferragamo double wrap bracelet
DressFrench Connection 'Woodblock wonder' panache dress in white/geranium rose
Belt: C/O Poppywinkle brown weave belt (came with Janet top)
ShoesAcne pistol boots in "skin"
BagVintage Louis Vuitton speedy 25 in monogram canvas


Another big scarf! It was a little too warm for this scarf today, although it was nice in the air conditioning at work and I wanted to keep my neck bundled up. There is probably zero benefit to my health but something in my brain just wants to wear scarves when I'm unwell. Maybe it's to lessen the blow of having to get out from under the doona each morning, haha!

I tried on a few printed scarves with this dress but wasn't quite sure that they looked okay, so went for the safe option with this big white pashmina instead. Would you wear a printed scarf with this dress? What do you think?


Last worn: orange dressbeltpistol bootsspeedy bag.
First time the scarf has been worn on the blog, but I've had it years.

Took my blog photos a little differently on on Saturday - first time using a proper tripod! Usually my photos are a mix of those taken by DH and those taken on self timer with a gorillapod and a tall object I can put the camera on. Now I have a tripod I can take photos anywhere, so I took these photos while on a long walk with Cooper. I just have to get better at finding a shady spot for photos though!

Close up of accessories and bag:

First day back in the office after being stuck at home for a couple of days. A skull scarf and studded dress and shoes felt like necessary accessories for me to get out of bed, haha! Thought that the studded shoes would be nice with the studs on the dress, but with the shoes being silver it didn't pair as well as I thought.


The scarf was last worn here, dress here, shoes here and bag here.
