I've just bought some more faux pearls so layered them up with my other necklace. I took two sets of photos: the first were with a new skirt, which is a big disappointment. I will probably be adding it to Nancy and Shelbee's Bad Buys Book. I saw it online and fell in love with the trumpet shaped hem. But readers, it is such an unforgiving fabric! I had to resort to the dreaded Spanx and even so there's no smooth line.
I quickly took some more photos today but in traditional UK summer style it's raining, so had to do them indoors. I wore a new pair of "velvet" trousers from Next which I got in the sale, plus new hounds tooth shoes from Amazon.
