French Connection Print Dress, Scarf, Heels, Alexander Wang Rocco | Layered Top, Pencil Skirt, Marc by Marc Jacobs Fran Bag

Here's what I wore to work on Wednesday:

Jacket: Barkins beige trench coat 
Scarf: Marc by Marc Jacobs Island pine-print scarf
Necklace: gifted freshwater pearl necklace
Dress: French Connection 'Fast Rhonda' dress in black/caramel
Shoes: Wittner 'Bloomy' black heels
Bracelets: the usual

Three days in a row I've gone for a printed French Connection dress now, sorry! Had to think of something easy yet professional to wear, and rather than fussing with separates I went for the lazy printed dress option. We were filming an internal video at work and I had a part to play in it so wanted to look as professional as possible. I'm be curious to see what the final video looks like - got to see a bit after I'd done my clip and it looked okay. Will be good to see everyone's parts together.


Last worn: beige trench, Marc by Marc Jacobs island pine scarf, French Connection print dress, ankle-strap heels, Alexander Wang Rocco bag.

Bracelets: the usual plus Indigo Rose Design waxed leather cream howlite beaded wrap bracelet

I was wearing a trench over this but it was impossible to take a photo showing the fake "layering" with the top so I braved a photo without the outerwear this morning. Have been eyeing up this top in my wardrobe for a while wanting to wear it, today was finally the day. It was a little awkward tucked in though, the skirt didn't hide the buttons well, haha. Must wear a stiffer skirt next time!

French Connection Printed Dress, Skull Scarf, Chloe Marcie Hobo Bag | Leather Jacket, Polka Dots, Rebecca Minkoff Grey MAM

Here's what I wore to work on Monday:

Jacket: Temt Black trench coat 
Scarf: Alexander McQueen modal and cashmere skull scarf
Dress: French Connection Romany rib printed dress
Shoes: Wittner 'Mimi' heels in mushroom
Bracelets: the usual plus Marc by Marc Jacobs enamel turnlock stripy hinge black and white bangle
Bag: Chloe Marcie medium hobo bag in Nut


Although it's not in the picture as it only arrived in the afternoon, I ended up wearing my new custom bangle from Yondale Design, you can see it on Instagram. It's a beautiful piece! Went a little custom-crazy a while back, and ordered this cuff and a necklace. I'm looking forward to sharing the necklace with you too when it arrives.

Had another presentation practice at work on Monday - so heels again for a bit of a confidence boost. I got to do my presentation twice, once to a small group as we break off to do them, and once to the larger group. It was definitely a lot scarier with more people in the room, but I'm pleased I managed to do it. All of the feedback was really helpful. Now I just need to think of a topic to talk about for a few minutes next time, and practice some more!

Another black and white French Connection dress today! Decided to wear another skull scarf too, why break the pattern? hehe. Had a day full of meetings and a bit of running around the city between buildings, so the boots kept my feet dry and warm as I did so. Wish I had thought to bring an umbrella, but didn't get soaked until I left the office to go home, so that worked out well.

Linking up with Style Sessions, Trend Spin Linkup today.


If you're interested, I'm selling some handbags and accessories from my collection on ebay. :)
