soft and light...




Believe it or believe it not, Carlow is having a lovely day. I hope it's the same for everybody... 

I went to work in a denim shirt and ski pants thinking it wouldn't be all that beautiful out. Thankfully, I was wrong and as soon as I came home I was out of the heavy black and into the super light and super soft white. This dress is the perfect summer dress in my opinion, it's comfy yet still fitted, it's white (which as you all know reflects the light away to keep one all cool and lovely) and it's really cute. Little house on the prairie and all that shiz. AND all those little holes make it very airy! Perfection... The only thing I am not to pleased about is how low this dress is for a 'day dress'. It's grand for some people but I always feel like Bosoms MaGee most of the time anyway so it's not the best. Tis simply rectified with a lace body underneath though. Result!

To follow on in the comfort and coolness stakes I pinned back my hair loosely and donned chunky sandals. Now to find somewhere cool to work...

easy comfort...



I ache today... Being "fit" all of a sudden is hurting me. Damn those runs! So being comfortable was essential to me today. At least I figured that out after being in a fitted enough dress and high heels.* I needed to change. I craved trousers! Unfortunately mine are all in the wash (all two of them) and these pair are on their last legs! No pun intended... 

I need to stop buying shoes and buy some serious clothes. By serious I mean stuff I actually need. Like more trousers, especially if this weather continues. I can't stand wearing tights anymore (the sheer effort of putting them on in the morning is heartbreaking) but bare legs is an obvious no no, so trousers are indeed needed. Plus they look more casual and I really don't own enough "nice" casual things. 

I am currently rectifying the matter...

*I am aware I am still wearing heels but what you need to understand is that these heels are like wearing flats... so so comfortable!

white flowers...






It seems the weather is going back to it's old ways. Grrr... I was getting used to not wearing tights. Oh well! At least I am wearing a spring dress plus it is made of wool so I ain't all that cold and I feel very pretty. I also get to look at this beautiful blossom tree in my front garden. So white that it actually glows at night. Though those damn petals go everywhere. And I mean EVERYWHERE!

I haven't shown you these shoes yet. They were my birthday present from my parents and they are adorable! Who can't adore love heart loafers!? And they were on sale... even better.
