Hats off

Thankfifi- Hats off-11

It seems the sun has taken his proverbial hat off this week.  So I have mine on.

When I bought these jeans I felt smug.  I was ahead of the game, predicting pink, one step ahead.  Fast forward two weeks and every lookbook in my inbox is full of pastel hued sugary threads.  Do I love them less?  No.  Do I want a pink coat?  Yes.  But I also need to come up with something new.

After years of torturing my poor mum with my alternative dress code, which resembled Kurt Cobain plus an underskirt here or there, and after countless pleas from her to dress ‘nicely’, I started art school and joined a sea of grungy artists.  And that was all I needed to smarten up.  Where’s the art in looking just the same as everyone else?  (Perhaps I should dig out my underskirt for LFW).

    Love this look! Especially with the hat – it just makes the outfit, along with the detailing on the knee of those jeans. Can I as k a nosey question?….. How tall are you? You look ‘model height in your photos! I’m only 5’5″ and wonder if I can get away with similar outfits with being a little less tall. Thanks 🙂 x

      Hi Louise – no probs being nosey! I’m somewhere just shy of 5’7″ – just standing tall and almost always wearing heels 😉

    Oh those jeans are just fantastic and I have to admit that my eyes go straight to your hat. It’s the perfect topper!

      love having a couple of hats like this – always seem to transform a ‘meh’ outfit into something better
