My last blog post from beautiful Russia, as I am currently half way home to Australia, writing this post from a Hong Kong airport terminal where I have a ten hour layover. Although I blogged this dress when I first came to Russia, my grandfather made me another beautiful flower crown this week and I…
Gingham and Freddies of Pinewood
This week I have been stung by nettle many times, eaten buckets of raspberries and found several kilos of mushrooms. I’m sure it’s getting repetitive now, hearing about how many things I have found in the forest and eaten…but I swear that it is a totally normal thing here! Mushrooms in Russia come in a…
The Dietrich Trench Coat
Getting dressed when you’re living out of a suitcase can be a bit of a drag, and after being in Moscow for a whole month now to say that I am missing my wardrobe is an understatement! However, a glamorous trench coat makes getting dressed a little easier when travelling as it instantly makes one…
Wild Strawberries and Gingham
Gingham, strawberries and the countryside may be a huge cliche together, but this is exactly how my week has been and I couldn’t be happier. The fields and the forest is full of wild strawberries now and I have gone into a frenzy collecting (and eating) as many as I can before they disappear. Wild…
Kuskovo
Some quick photos from yesterday when we went to Kuskovo palace, a place I always visit when I’m in Moscow. Last time I visited I did a post about the interior of the palace and the gardens which you can see here! Dress – Hell Bunny Shoes – Target
Home
It’s so good to finally be home. It’s always a strange feeling coming back, it feels like time has stood still and like I never left in the first place. I think that’s what is so comforting about it and why I never want to leave. This lupine field would have to be my favorite…
Lady in Burgundy
After this past weekend when it was 30 degrees again, I was convinced that winter definitely was not coming. However when I woke up this morning I was in for a shock as it was absolutely freezing and in the single digits – which was really the last thing I was expecting! So you can…
Glen or Glenda
Completely simple and low key as this outfit may be, I always feel particularly fabulous when I wear it. This may be to do with the freedom of movement that wearing swishy pants like these allows, or it could be the cheeky, cropped midriff top. The fact that both pieces are extremely comfortable to wear…
Leaves of Red and Gold
Plaid – as lovely as it is, it tends to be a very popular fabric choice for school uniforms! This dress in particular makes me think of the characters outfits in Mona Lisa Smile – 40s/50s collegiate style. I love preppy vintage looks so it isn’t any surprise that this dress made it’s way into…
Lets go Sailing
My favorite part of the Sydney trip was staying with Kayla and her lovely family who live by the central coast for a few days. I was completely blown away by how beautiful everything is on the peninsular and when it was time to leave I couldn’t help wondering whether it might just be possible to…
