If you go in the woods today

 Brrr that's all I can say it has gotten cold this weekend (well nippy), this is what I wore on Saturday to go play with my niece and sister, we were going to a cake shop, but it was too full so ended up wandering in the cold. These are three of my favourite items, wait no four.
The cape is 1960s from a vintage fair last year, I feel like Little Red Riding Hood or some other fable heroine in it. The yellow 1950s dress is from a vintage shop in Totnes, Devon, going back to Devon in May, very excited the dress is so tatty but my Mum covered the worst bits at the bottom in more flowers and the green hat is from a Paris flea market, I think I have mentioned before but I have no idea which way I am suppose to wear it. Oh and the asos shoes are ridiculously high, I managed to drive and walk to my sisters in them but then decided to switch to brogues, so ended up looking like a bag lady. Oh and fyi, I have a tripod now! my boyfriend is off the hook aha. I switched to pale raspberry lipstick, I always feel like I am cheating on my cherry red when I do this.


















Little Red, what a style icon










I plugged the socket in to make it look more editorial.

    1. Isn't she just, glad you agree. Tripods are awesome. It is by Natural Collection by Boots which is a pharmacy chain in the UK. It is very cheap £1.99, I could always post you one when I next buy some! x
