Blooming Brilliant


floral skirt

I don't usually go this girlie - full skirt plus heels...


valentino red bag floral skirt
Polo neck: Gap (similar).  Skirt: Asos.  Shoes: Steve Madden (try these or these).  Bag: Valentino (similars in red here, here and here).  Socks: Can't remember but probably Topshop.   Note: Shopbop sale on: Code: SpringEvent


So figured I'd freeze the moment with a post now before I revert to boots. 

It took a graphic wood print to get my attention.  Normally a midi has to have something special going for me to cave e.g. it's leather - it's a kilt - something.   In this case - it's the print.

Took these pics right before going out for dinner in the city and added the All Saints jacket
