Ever said that at the top of your voice in the chemist before?
Disgraceful? Embarrassing? Well, I have no problem with such social disgraces.
The double-takes and stares this outfit elicited today reminded me of the things we'd LIKE to say, wear, do ... but are too scared to.
This absolutely scrumptious frock was part of a super-dooper surprise parcel from the fecktacious Helga this week.
What an absolute darling!!!!!
The satin bodice has a sequin motif on it and attached are layers of the finest tulle I have ever groped, stroked and rolled around in.
It has two pink satin bows at the front and back to drape the tulle.
I simply had to wear it to drop The Stylist off at her ballet lesson - "You can't come in" - then went for a wee stroll through the oppys.
The gawping was pretty spectacular and I couldn't help thinking of the number of people who may have secretly yearned to wear a tutu-like frock in public.
Oh yes.
I KNOW you're out there!
Don't be shy, make mama proud.
Notice my new bag?
It's from Two Squirrel's Etsy shop and I pounced on it quick-sharp.
I'm so glad I did because it's a Super Bag with its patchwork, gorgeous blue satin lining and a lucky penny!!
I was so touched by this, a war-time penny from my homeland:)).
In 1940, my Dad was in prison camp aged 18.
Scrummy rings from Helga, plus the earrings I'm wearing.
Winged shoes are just the thing to take off in while wearing such a divine frock.
A marriage made in heaven - two amazing bloggy mates who are in-real-life buddies - they are both wrapped around my body!!
Can you feel the lurrrrrrrve?
You have yourselves a banging weekend.
And don't forget to slip one on (or tie one on) for me, y'hear?
Big squeezy hugs,
Desiree xo

The white frock from Helga is completely and divinely see-through and look what those lovely Squirrels popped in as a pressie!

ReplyDeleteOoh, it's just lovely. You look beautiful! I love that handbag; I had even added it to my favorites list on Etsy so I could admire it's patchwork, and when I saw that it had sold, I'd hoped it was to someone who would love and cherish it--and that's exactly what happened!!! :D It was meant for you!
ReplyDeleteOh pretty ballerina!

My favourite pic is the one taken through the tulle, so lovely...
