The palms

shirt – Gap (last worn here)
skirt – H&M For Water (ON SALE!)
sandal – Zara
fizzball clutch – Kurt Geiger
necklace – gift from Dubai, bracelet – Reiss 

When I saw this little number in the H&M sale I knew it wanted to come on holiday with me and find other palm trees to pose next to (or maybe that was me…).

After a 6 hour flight, an inordinate amount of time spent in the passport control queue and a taxi which broke down in the carpark, we finally made it home around 5am.  But today saw the return of my little hairy bear and good was fully restored.  I feel I may possibly also be the first person ever to catch a serious cold in the 40 degree heat of the desert and no, before you say it was on the plane, it was not; it started in Eygpt – I’m just super lucky like that.  Unfortunately the plane air-con almost certainly circulated my germs around the entire cabin and soon most of Glasgow will be enjoying various strains of my tropical flu…  Fortunately for you I still have plenty of holiday photos to bore you with while I recover.

    Hey :)
    ah you look stunning as always :) )
    the 1st photo provoked my imagination and now it goes wild, thinking it would be the perfect cover for a love story novel : “waiting for him full of hope he’ll come on time…yet roaming around memories…waiting or wondering if you should go” lol

    • Thankfifi Posted 25 Sep at 3:59 pm

      wow – well if you ever write the novel let me know and you can use the picture!
