Fresh as a Daisy

Oh come on guys, you KNEW today's post would feature the daisy dress, right?! I just had to be.
It's a little on the short side, but that is part of the parcel of being tall I think, so I'm doing to rock it regardless with my dignity just about intact.

(hi there Flash, attacking my feet, again)

007

The ring up close. It's adjustable so perfect for everyone. I have chunky fingers and often find it hard to get rings to fit so this is A++

001

A pair of Mum's old earrings. And by old, I mean older than me.

006

I just *love* early mornings. Yeah.

Happy Friday Guys, what are you up to this weekend? We're having our house invaded by Richard Parker for a couple of nights (The Croft. Sunday. 7:30pm. Tickets on the door. BE THERE) so it's gonna be a mad 'un.

P.S. In honour of it being Eating Disorders Awareness Week, I've been featured by butterflyshapes on her blog. Check this girl out, she is the sweetest.

O I just love the dress; and you look so good in it. You should definitely wear shorter things more often, because they fit you really well. I mean you look so tall!

Sophie Isobel said...

Love that dress, it's so cute! I love all your piercings as well :) x

Panty Buns said...

The daisies on your dress are amazing and beautiful! What a find! The ring is pretty (and your fingers are not chunky at all).

I'm so glad you did that interview (Butterflyshapes: A Daisy Chain Dream.) for Eating Disorders Awareness Week. I think you are probably helping a lot of people by candidly sharing your story. People in the fashion industry need to become more cognizant of Anorexia and Bulimia and I have more to learn myself.

On that same subject, thank you for having offered roxxybelle an ear over at Roxxy Cambridge - This Year So Far Has Proved Rather.

I hope the Richard Croft invasion goes well. Have a great weekend.

Chuck said...

Yey! It looks amazing! The shameless plug made me laugh - it is unlikely that i'll be in the vicinity of SC but if I am I'll drop in. x

Kezzie said...

Hello! The dress looks great on you! I thought it was a bit short too at first when I put it on(I have it too!), but it just works! Any time I've worn it, it's been greeted with compliments!
Peacocks have got a really cute collection of flowery earrings including mini-daisies http://www.peacocks.co.uk/product/index.jsp?productId=4619271&prodFindSrc=paramNav that would go great with it!
