Just a quick scheduled post today – we’re spending a weekend in Cornwall at a luxury hotel after I won a competition for a free night at The Llawnroc Hotel in Gorran Haven… I’m so excited!
This is an outfit from a couple of weeks ago incorporating my bright chiffon shirt from Asos (sold out, sadly) and a big bow neck tie – it’s a little hard to see as my hair covers most of it. I like the contrast of masculine and feminine as I am generally a wearer of trousers, but then a skirt feels like a bit of a ‘day out’ for my legs so it’s a special treat for them 😉
Hope you’re all having a fabulous weekend!

I love the pattern on your top, it matches so well with your hair!
I really like that blouse. It's a bold print but you paired it down with the neutrals.

One of your best outfits! Love it..
That top is soooo retro looking and I love it! I think the floppy bow tie is a nice touch. I will need to try that soon. 🙂 Congrats on winning the competition! I saw a few of your photos on Twitter and it looks like fun! Hope you had a great weekend! <3

Very pretty blouse. And you do look good in skirts so your legs can have more days out.
Oh, thank you Greetje! I'm never 100% happy in skirts so that's really lovely of you xx
