Grecian

IMG_1183
I saw this dress in Topshop over the summer and just had to snap it up. Unfortunately, I had to wait several months to wear it because the wispy-thin fabric doesn't really lend itself to cooler temperatures! This weekend, I finally got a chance to wear it out for dinner, and it's already a firm favorite in my closet. The swish of the skirt and the long length made me feel very Grecian!

And of course, it's a dress that lends itself to endless twirling and dancing ;)

This weekend, we bought parakeets/budgies! Ritesh and I were wandering through a local market and found these gorgeous yellow birds, so we decided we had to bring them home. They make beautiful sounds and kiss each other all day!

    And those budgies bring back fond memories. When I was little we had a massive cage full of them & I used to love watching their antics.

  19. this dress is so elegant, i love the bright teal colour on you - it does feel very grecian or a little cleopatra inspired. I really want to paint my nails like that..what silver did you use for the tip?

    I enjoyed your privacy blog post, I am always cautious of this too and it can be frightening to think of just who reads us sometimes. It sounds like you haven't had a good experience recently and I hope it's all ok :(

    take care x

  21. That dress is DIVINE. It is the definition of the word. I love the way the skirt flows, so effortlessly. It was made for you.

    And I'm so pleased to see you are the mother of such beautiful birds. What are their names?!
