This skirt is by far the most beautiful, luxurious item of clothing I own. It's just so pretty and ladylike - I can pretend I'm not a gobby Essex bird for a few minutes. It literally only lasted a few minutes too before I got my heel caught in the decking and tumbled down the stairs in front of our guests. I had to sit through the reminder of my mother's garden party with a plaster on my grazed knee like a five year old. Ladylike can't be used to describe me just yet... Maybe one day!
I wouldn't be British if I didn't mention the glorious weather we seem to be having. Long may it continue! All I seem to want to do is sit in the garden with a good book and a pitcher of Pimms. How are you spending the sunny days? Although the underground is sweltering at the moment, it's not one aspect of Summer I'm enjoying!
You might be seeing a lot of Arctic Monkeys lyrics as blog post names in the future as my boyfriend managed to get tickets for us to see them at Earls Court in October. Their first album has been making my daily commute a little easier - I feel like i've gone back to being 18 again aka the best years of my life. I'm so excited to finally see them as it's been a long time coming! If I'm honest, I'm probably just paying £40 to hear I Bet You Look Good On The Dancefloor live. Excited isn't even the word to describe it.
Have you got any gigs lined up in the future? Or did you manage to get Arctic Monkeys tickets too?
Aww, you look so lovely in this skirt and the shoes are cute - I'm still undecided on the Lady Dragon thing.
ReplyDeleteI haven't been to a gig in way too long. x
You look fabulous. Oh us Essex girls are all the same ;) We will have to do coffee sometime if you fancy? x

ReplyDeleteTumbling down sounds like something I would exactly do as well! I may never be quite lady like haha
ReplyDeleteThat skirt is sooo beautiful! Im obsessed! I love skirts that length!
Oh, so sorry you tumbled! Your outfit is beautiful, though! It's always hot where I live, so I kind of take warmth for granted.
ReplyDeleteI haven't been to a concert in ages. I'd like to see Jimmy Eat World!

Ahh sounds a little embarassing but at least you look amazing! The skirt goes so well with the Vivienne Westwood shoes. I've been after a pair that colour for ages!
ReplyDeleteI'm so jelous about the Arctic Monkeys, sadly I couldn't afford it. I saw them at Brixton in 2009 and they were amazing! Hope you have a lovely time!
