I’ve found myself coming over a bit bohemian these warm days and nights – it’s just so great to wear flowing pieces which let the air circulate to keep cool. The studio I work in is pretty warm at the best of times but add 5 bodies, a steam iron, this wonderful heat-wave and windows that only open a couple inches and you’ve probably got an idea of what we’re dealing with! Please don’t misunderstand me though, I would never complain about the heat in Scotland, I am more than happy to adapt.
I picked up this dress from H&M in the sale last year for some ridiculous price like £3 but when it arrived it was too short – maxis that are not entirely maxi really aggravate me but I recently discovered that the top could be folded inside and the dress became a skirt at the perfect floor skimming length (in fact I could have probably worn it an inch longer still).
Hope you are all managing to keep cool and enjoy the start of what really does seem to be an actual summer!

Love how you’ve turned the dress to a skirt and how flowy and beautiful you look in this ensemble my sweety!
thanks sweetie.x
Smart thinking Wendy!! The dress-come-skirt is an ideal way to wear an ever so slightly short maxi (one of my bug bears too!) Such a dream to wear Summery clothes now non? Thank heavens we have a bit of sun!
Hope you’ve been having a lovely week hun!
