Playing Dress Up Part 2

The photos in the last post and this post were taken in my (shared with another couple: that's why it's not decorated!) sitting room when Rebecca was over for an interview last week. She bought her penguin family with her to leave at my house because she is moving over to Edinburgh this week (yay!), and I decided to pose with them... while she posed with a random drum. As you do. I love the velvety dress that I am wearing, but it is rather tricky to walk in: I had to take teeny tiny footsteps!

Dress from Naf Naf, shoes from Schuh, penguin from Central Park Zoo!

 

 

And then there were four...

'Hmm...' Dress from Kookai

Playing Dress Up Part 1

Taking these photos was quite amusing... there were lots of people outside at the crossroads which is right beside my house, and some of them definitely noticed us posing... And clambering in and out of the window while keeping our modesty intact was also challenging!

Sister, Sister

Me and my big sister at the Royal Botanic Gardens

My sister came up to visit me in Edinburgh for a few days this week. We had a wonderful and hectic time: we went out for lots of lovely meals, visited a market (where we bought some delicious cupcakes), wandered around the Botanic Gardens, had some delicious margaritas (banana, mint and strawberry were all sampled), did some shopping, and went up Calton Hill to see the view. We've always been very close, and I lived with her in London for a few months until I moved up to Edinburgh in January, so I really miss her. It was great to see her, and hopefully next time she'll stay longer.

She always dresses very stylishly; I've got lots of clothes that were chosen by her or used to belong to her. My love of clothes and make up (MAC lipsticks in particular!) has always been very much inspired by her. My life and my style would definitely be lacking if she wasn't such a big part of it. Below are some photos of her trip, with some of our outfits too.

On the way out for dinner and drinks: I love that we're both wearing black peep toe heels! Her dress is from French Connection, blazer from Zara and shoes from LK Bennett. My dress is from Warehouse, blazer from Topshop and shoes from New Look.

There is always a lot of silliness when we are together!

She's always stylish! Blazer from Zara, t-shirt from a shop in Munich, bag from Clarks, jeans from Next, and shoes from Converse
