Hello, remember I mentioned a protest march I was going to last weekend? Well it dawned a beautiful calm sunny day with blue skies and a temperature high enough to have bare arms. I wore my Paul Klee top (which started life as a maxi dress and has been reincarnated as a top and a skirt). Not visible in the photo are the jeans and boots which were thrifted too.
On Sunday I went to Savemart and found quite possibly the world's most amazing pair of boots. They are exactly my size, leather and barely worn. Okay, so they are a funny shade of pink and the embroidery is a little garish, but I loved them. At only $7 I would be mad not to love them. When I got home I made carrot soup and waffles.

Some how the blogging vibe deserted me all week, but as the photo below shows, Monday was not a bad day - it was nice weather so I could have bare legs. I wore one of my magic skirts (made from old saris), grey thrifted tee shirt, pink accessories and a couple of anti war badges on a retail jacket with cropped sleeves.

Now I feel all content and sleepy - full of good food and warmed by the fire. How about you? How was your Saturday??
Oh its funny how the old blogging sways in and out.....I am the same.
ReplyDeleteI love the wee pink shoes with that fabulous skirt.
Hello to your lovely fur-babies too.
This rose velvet skirt looks like a wee treat...looking forward to seeing it.
Hope you are having a splendid weekend.

Yay for a great score on the boots. Savemart seems to be so hit & miss from the times I've visited, & yet I'm always drawn back to it! Lovely outfits, I particularly like the skirt teamed with the blazer. Your dinner sounds delicious. Today was the coolest morning we've had here, it was 24 degrees & that almost felt brisk! We are wishing the days away until our next trip over the Ditch. We booked some flights yesterday. Fingers crossed we get to catch up again. Enjoy what's left of your weekend. Xx
ReplyDeleteOh heck there's just so much to love here!!! The Klee top and your new boots - GAH!!!!! Carrot soup and waffles - yes please, yummy in my tummy and I ADORE your sari skirt. In fact, I'm convinced it has magical powers - truly!!! xoxoxox
ReplyDeleteAll this talk of food is making me hungry. The waffles look delicious. I love the embroidery on the boots and what a bargain. That rose print is beautiful. I can't wait to see a pic of the finished skirt.
ReplyDeleteSoup and waffles, mmm... Love the Paul Klee print and the sari skirt. The boots look lovely, I gues you could always dye them if the colour isn't to your taste.
ReplyDeleteContent and sleepy and warm and full sounds a good way to be! xxx
OMG - carrot soup and pink shoes and red rose velvet skirt - there's so much to love!!!
