Gorgeous Greece..

IMG_4340

We travelled back home from gorgeous Greece yesterday (up at 8, started driving at 9.30..got to the airport at 5.00 pm..then flight delayed..home in London at 2 am) so rather hollow-eyed this morning – the world is still swaying, but it was so worth it..we had a truly magical time..who could’t?

Packing..

IMG_4328

I hate packing with a passion..but at least in summer the clothes are the easy bit…all I take are vintage cotton dresses..

As a change this year – yep, I always wear the same ones..I’ve added an edge of neon pink pom poms..

I have all sorts from all different countries..this is one of my mexican numbers..and yes, if didn’t escape the pom poms either..they’re breeding and rather addictive..

My white broiderie anglais kaftan..excellent for wafting in with a trilby and a cocktail..

This is an African number – comes with a full length wrap skirt in the same material.  A girl has to have a bit of bling..

My cheesecloth peasant dress with embroidered butterflies..guaranteed never to meet someone wearing the same..

Another Mexican..they’re rather fab and very easy to wear..

The only two exceptions to the rule are my vintage jumpsuits..dress up, dress down they can take me to any occasion..

This one was originally 80’s purple, but it got a dose of brown dye and now it’s a wonderful burnt aubergine colour.  It’s silk so does crease, but it’s worth it with a pair of gold sandals..

 

But I still hate packing..

Missioni and beachwear feels a bit like a oxymoron..until you see Missioni Mare.  Why is it that green and pink go so well together? Maybe it has something to do with nature…

My Summer Beauty..

This was a purchase from my vintage wander to Stoke Newington..and I love it.  It hasn’t made the holiday packing cut purely on the basis the material is quite heavy, which means it holds it shape wonderfully..and is perfect for those cool English summer evenings.  I wear it with a pair of wedges, my vintage Mulberry bag and a big smile….puurrrrfick!
