A world oh so small.

Junk Clothing Lace Dress - Rebecca Minkoff Alligator MAC Clutch - Tony Bianco Dodge Boots in Ash Suede - Limecrime Retrofuturist Lip Colour

For the first time ages I tried doing my hair in a dressed up bun - I quite enjoy that it makes it look like a lopped off all my hair :)

Is it normal that I've been to 500 million tea parties in the past couple of weeks? So many florals and full skirts! No bright lipstick until today though - I had to awkwardly avoid white porcelain and look like a plastic woman while eating odd flavoured macaroons.

This amazing clutch thanks to the gorgeous Rebecca Minkoff team is now my day-and-night staple for the intensely teal alligatored leather, and beautifully contrasted gold hardware. I hadn't realised how wonderfully bright the bag was until I unwrapped it this morning and decided on red lipstick. Who hearts opposite colours? More and more I've been gravitating towards colour palettes that nobody necessarily visualises, but somehow work once on.

Also, don't forget to check out my guest posts for Rebecca at Minkette.com!

Having read all this, I realise that none of it makes sense - my brain is too scattered today (mainly because I fail at driving)! What have we all been doing this week?

P.S. spreading some love through Twitter and Bloglovin'!

P.P.S. Yay Spring/Summer! Check out that Jacaranda tree.

i like to see contrasts- for example, your delicate, lacey dress worn with sculptural, minimal shoes. and the handbag adds an unexpected pop of color.
