Baby it's Cold Outside

The quest for the perfect winter dress (or three) begins...

First at Eliza Parker...



Then to eshakti




Then to Igigi...

Gratitude 15: Slinky Leona-esque dress

I love Leona Edmiston's style. Lovely dresses with sleeves. Understatedly feminine.. Hair up. Perfect.


My new eshakti dress is a little Leona Edmiston. Slinky and lovely. It's my go to evening dress at the moment.

Gratitude 14: White Wrap Shirt

My beautiful white wrap shirt by Jane Lamerton is evidence for the quality argument. I've had it three years now and it still looks new. It irons like a dream. It is in the spirit of the shirts below but not exactly the same. It has an almost seventies retro big collar and a fetching black buckle.

Gratitude 13: Cherry Earrings

I am loving my gratitude project. It's training me to think a little differently. As my items of gratitude get a little older I may need to get out the camera as it's getting harder to find images online!

Gratitude 13... hmm is that unlucky?

Here are my cherry earrings from Paper Biscuit on Etsy.


They are so pretty and add a little rockabilly sweetness to the outfit du jour.

Gratitude 12: Girl-Power Maxi

Ooh eshakti! This is such a lovely dress. It fits. It's lined in cotton. It doesn't have ridiculous plunging cleavage. The length is perfect. It's straps stay put and most importantly it's in white, purple and green the colours of women's suffrage.


As always there's a few custom options. I chose "wide straps". Simple and lovely.

Gratitude 11: Minnie Mouse Dress

My sister tells me that this eshakti dress makes me look like Minnie Mouse, but in a good way!


It can only be good, as Minnie Mouse is a style icon of mine.


It's a look that works for everyone!
