I love my mum to bits but what was she thinking, I too am truly scarred, the most thankful thing I can take from it is that there is no photographic evidence, praise the lord social media was not in existence.

I've been stalking it forever on Shopbop and literally only came across the Matches one (which was less than half of the price of the Shopbop one!) and bought it the day before you posted! It just arrived and I love it! (The Shopbop styling of it is much better though, with tee and b/f jeans as per your suggestion).

A hand me down yellow shirt dress with yellow and gold enamel buttons, in a yellow that should have been spring like but made me feel like death warmed up...yellow is not a colour choice I go for now.<br />And talking of spring, I fear that ours has sprung a leak, in the form of 15-20cm snow coming tonight! <br />So the blazer as outerwear will have to wait a bit longer here, although I have just bought a navy one I can't wait to wear, not tomorrow though...I go for a fitted shape otherwise being petite I end up looking like I'm playing dress up.

My mum is to blame for my shopping habits too - I remember some rust-coloured cord knickerbockers she bought me early in the 80s which I loved, but she bought them from La Cicogna on High St Ken which, along with Biba and Pollyanna on Fulham Rd were her shops of choice for my sister and I. Since then I have had a massive weakness for a boutique...<br />I love a blazer and it seems have passed that onto my 22 year old daughter (I know - how old am I??!!) as she keeps stealing my Hush one. They just have that Parisienne 'thing', whatever you throw them over. Oh, and that Me&Em blazer (and the rest of the outfit, TBF) is just gorgeous. I am practically drooling over the whole look.Mariehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17111082794677743047noreply@blogger.com
