Wearing:

1940s vintage dress - Etsy somewhere | Vintage bracelet - gift

Hair flowers - Primark | Shoes - Clarks

This dress is still one of my absolute favourites because just look at it. I wore it with my 40s lace ups for a few hours before the photos were taken but as you might be able to spot, they gave me terrible blisters due to the heat. I always forget that shoes that fit perfectly well most of the year round can be very uncomfortable when the weather gets warm. 

I was very pleased with my little matching posy of flowers in my hair. I really like wearing them but I often find that I'm not very good at spending money on accessories, so I'm always pleased when flowers etc turn up in places like Primark for next to no money. I have a vague memory of trying to make 2016 the year when I'd really start accessorising, but nope - I'm just not very good at it. 

Maybe 2017 will be the year of the accessory for me...
