Red Velvet Christmas

Some photos from Christmas dinner with pals at Zuri yesterday. I wore a very old Miss Patina dress that I had been saving through the last 3 Christmasses, my long beloved vintage hat from Dalena Vintage, and trusty Bass loafers.



Illumination

This is an outfit I’ve wanted to blog for a while now – a mix of old favourites and new. This botanical top by Glamorous has been one of my best buys in recent times, the print reminds me so much of medieval illuminations!

In love with: Dark Florals

Botanical florals, dark florals, wallpaper florals, winter florals, florals reminiscent especially of groovy 70s curtains and the dress that went with it. I fell in love with this aesthetic from the Valentino Pre Fall 15 collection early this year, and now I’m absolutely smitten.

DIY Gold Autumn Crown

Here are some step by step instructions to make your own gold autumn crown! I’d say it’s a level 2 DIY, mostly because things can get fiddly if you’re using dried bay leaves like I did, or other dried organic matter – leaves, flowers, twigs – they tend to split if you’re not too careful.

Munnar, Day 2: There’s something about this weather that brings back an October of five years past. I slip into a dream, a cloud like those that settle on the mountaintops before drifting down to the valley.
