"Lose an hour in the morning, and you will be all day hunting for it." ~ Richard Whately.

Headmistress Feather Headdress - Fairground Shadows like Perfumes Wrap from Frankie Sunshine - Somedays Lovin' Free Falling Crop Top - EVIL TWIN Sheer Maxi from Market HQ

I kid you not - I woke up half an hour earlier today just to snap these for you all (and it was freaking cold). As a result, I am now struggling quite significantly. But that's ok. Because I'm happy with the early-morning-sunshiney photographic results. (Disclaimer: this may mean that I'll have to keep getting up early to snap crisp-morning Winter photos, which will also mean that I look progressively more sleepy.) Just a heads up :p

Shadows like Perfumes Wrap is probably the most perfect name for this insane maxi cardigan from over at Frankie Sunshine - the shade of grey is as warm as it is itself, and it will remain happily married to all my maxi-whatevers, some high-waisted business when the time is right and the millions of brilliant Somedays Lovin' prints that remind me of Summer.

I haven't pulled out this beloved Headmistress headdress of mine for quite some times now, but I think it's making an impressive comeback over the course of these colder months. The colour scheme was always a rustic favourite of mine. Jillian is absolutely killing it with her amazing new turbans too!

Did I mention that it has a hood? Perfection.

Seriously stressful times happening at uni right about now! We're all slowly going insane. It's awesome.

Fields have eyes and woods have ears.

Headmistress Watson Lake Headdress - Living Doll Beaded Layer Dress - Zoe Wittner Ursula Wedges

As much as I'm not a fan of sitting in fields in what-I-wore-today (because let's face it - you clearly don't wear that to a field), I couldn't resist the amazing sunlight at about 5 in the evening, and the way it makes everything look super-focused, but dreamy at the same time. A lot like this amazingly sweet dress that the lovely Annika of Living Doll kindly lent me to share with you all. Isn't it just stunning? I could spin in it forever - the layering is that fine and perfect. Similar outlook goes for a lot of Living Doll's pieces! Take a look HERE.

The obvious accompanying choice would have been flats boots and a felt hat. So I tried my beloved wedges and my favourite feathered beauty that is getting a lot of wear (much to the entertainment of those who live on my street).

Desert Spot.

Annie Greenabelle Long Sleeve Bodycon Dress - Headmistress Watson Lake Headdress - ASOS Distressed Art Boot

Although I did catch a lot of unflattering angles and inconsistent in these shots, I'll take comfort in the fact that I am absolutely fixated on wearing this little ensemble all through Summer - even if I do wish that I had sunbaked parts of Arizona as a backdrop rather than my favourite corrugated wall (though I suppose jumping nonchalantly wouldn't be quite so easy in Arizona).

Annie Greenabelle's Fairtrade certification and 100% organic cotton dress makes it so much smilier for me to jump around, particularly as I've been such a fan of her work for a while, and the fun spots and sweet scooped back definitely embody the fresh but simple vibe Annie's work is all about. You've probably seen a lot of her work floating around TOPSHOP (tea dresses, come to mama) and this aesthetically and ethically pleasing designer is going a long way, let me tell you. Check out her adorable work HERE.

To go with the desert feel of my new ASOS boots (I physically hugged them when they danced out of their little box) is this amazing headdress, made by Jillian over at Headmistress. After trying to help a friend with some feathers for a school design project, I now truly appreciate Jillian's talent in fashioning amazing feathered pieces. I'll definitely be showing more of this beautiful headdress (the rustic colours and perfect gold and leather details get me every time) so keep your eyes peeled for some feathery goodness HERE - particularly if you have a secret love of feathered rings and general badassery.
