knock me down with a feather






I have so many dresses competing for spot as my favourite right now. Motel Heidi feather print dress* is one of them, and quite possibly the top contender! Sent c/o Motel this is the first piece I have owned from the brand (aside from a pink and red striped rugby top when I was about 14!). I'd never bought from Motel before, convinced that the dresses were all bodycon and far too short; but this fit and flare style has won me over...it's flattering, floaty and one of those pieces that you can't help but feel good in.

I teamed it with my latest Sarenza aquisition; Georgia Rose Lalia Boots* currently in the sale at £60.60. I thought these might have been too pointed on my big feet, and maybe a little ugly, but in real life they are AMAZING. A little bit punky, beautifully comfortable and very versatile. Potentially a new favourite pair of boots.

Back at work today, I lose my lunch break to life support and defib training too. It's going to be a long 'un!

Looking on the brightside...it's already Wednesday, so ALMOST the weekend!

I think it would be my favourite, wow!! You always introduce me to dangerous palces where I could spend money :) I haven't seen Motel Rocks before...

p.s. I found somewhere in Leeds that did the Pretzel M&M's! they were pretty yummy, though £2 a bag?! Ouch!

Almost the weekend - exactly, that's what makes the hump-day, well the humpday! :D

Really, really cute dress. I am most jealous, especially as I have a bit of a feather fetish. Have a good day at work m'dear - do they give you a lunch break somewhere else if you are training during yours? xxx

W-O-W amaaaazing shoes...absolutely love them, would have the same issue with the pointness, as I do have long feet :) but hey, I still adooore them. Lovely dress too, the entire outfit has an effortless charm that really appeals to me.
