I dream in mint green.

I passed a hair assignment today, so I have purchased this original crepe late '50s onesie to congratulate myself. (Any excuse!)

 Whatcha think girls? It's a mint green dream.

When she arrives, I will be wearing her with accessories along these lines...

Love as always, Lucille x.

Old Shopping.

I am looking forward to:

Newark International Antique Fair

I will be on the lookout for one of these:

Winter dogs and a broken resolution.

It was totally inevitable, I knew it would happen. For my new year resolution was for me to stop the shopping. Yeah, anyway whilst out doing the deed, I came across what seemed like a guard dog of sorts. Alas, on closer inspection, this dog was so loveable in his knitted jumper, and not a snarl insight.

Later today, I made sure Inka was all wrapped up in her (Christophers) scarf.

Love as always, Lucille x.

'Must have' Monday buys.

In my usual practised shopping route, I always tend to include Topshop. I ignore the hot stuffy changing rooms and hoards of posh students in their fur coats, because I know that every now and again I manage to find something lovely. Something that wouldn't look outta place in a woman's wardrobe circa 1949.

 Just lately I have been craving Chinese prints, fantasising over floaty fabrics and fancying floor length skirts. In the corner of the maternity section(!!) I found this lone blouse in my size. And that was it. I got it home and styled it to satisfy my cravings. Top marks, Topshop. 

The sleeves are lovely and billowy. If that's a word? Perfect for dancing anyhow.

Love as always, Lucille x.
