So we were paid a visit by a passing butterfly when we took these pictures, not unusual except that it’s January. In England.
It’s so mild the poor things are confused and popping up all over the place.
I got the neon satchel for Christmas from my lovely Mr Summers… my face was a picture when I opened it (shock and awe and amazement), I totally forgot that I’d said ages ago I would really love one. The gorgeous bling ring I got in my stocking, and then in total contrast the raincoat was a bargain from Karen Millen years ago. It was about £120 down to £30 and I was living in London when I bought it – it’s at least 12 years old. I reckon the price-per-wear must now be in the minus figures, it’s such a classic and has never dated.
So this is a bit of a “something old, something new, something borrowed, something blue” post. Nothing to do with weddings. Can I say we borrowed the butterfly’s time to take his picture?

Booking my flight to England now to steal that BAG! OMG…I am obsessed with it. Neon is going to be huge for spring…and I am not brave enough to wear it in clothing most likely..so accessories like that bag would be PERFECT!
Love this look!!!

Katherine, You look so beautiful and classic in this outfit. I love the neon purse!
Thanks for double linking. You are welcome to link up as many times as your want. I always enjoy reading your post! Your outfits are always perfection!
You have such an incredible vision with colors!
Lovely outfit my dear.
It's so lovely to see the butterfly – and your gorgeous neon bag! What a sweet husband you have : > And your boots are so chic as well; I'd love to see them in my closet! Thanks so much for linking up to Visible Monday.
Love, love, love the neon bag. And I hope it doesn't suddenly turn freezing and kill all your butterflies; that would be horrible.
I love that you grounded it all with the black shoes. You look gorgeous! We've been enjoying mild temps here too – some of the trees even have buds on them, I'm worried we'll have a hard freeze!

That coat was a great find..don't you love it when you buy things that you end up wearing for decades?
