As fast as you can.

So maybe I don't have my jumping quite as down-pat as this fantastic site Jo showed me this morning, but I'm getting there :) Sorry about the silence over the past few days! I may have been the dork that took my computer on my few days away (which, by the way, was intensely fun), but I was also the dork who thought it would be a good idea to go to two events (and dumplings afterwards) on 3 hours of sleep. As a result, I'm fairly ill as of waking up at 1pm this afternoon.

But all is well with these fantastic pants by Mrs Press - after I returned them to Clare (sob) I started seeing trillions of ways of puzzle-piecing them into my wardrobe. Definitely need to pay a visit to Mrs Press Dressing Room when the spring collection drops! I got this bowler hat at the risk of being packaged in bubble wrap with an enormous 'Raging Hipster' label across the top - the simple solution turned out to be flipping the brim downwards so the vibe was slightly more 1920s (comme ça), rather than the associated chinos and boat shoes.

I would also like to announce that these heels (thanks to my friends at ModCloth) are the perfect answer to drawing attention to small ankles. Weird to say, yes, but beneficial? Very much so.

An now, for the winner of the Style Yourself giveaway which I should have announced a week ago! But here goes. Congratulations to:

Hadassah of Linton from London

And for those of you who didn't win, not to worry! It's definitely not a fork-out to grab your own copy right HERE.

*love*
