Peach Polka Dots & Midnight Blue

Polka dot shirt & navy pinafore dress

This was probably i of my most eclectic colour combinations to date: peach, midnight blue, burgundy and tan.

Merely I do similar them together! I take worn this (sometime) Karen Millen dress a few times on the blog now: here, here, here and hither, so although information technology was quite expensive at the time, the cost-per-habiliment would work out to exist pretty cheap as I wear information technology regularly. I tend to think that I'yard just wearing a plain bluish clothes – I forget how pretty all the stitching and embroidery on it is (it shows upwardly beautifully in photos).

The boots are exceptionally old – in fact I hadn't actually worn them for years and years. The heels needed redoing which I finally got round to doing (they had completely fallen off so a trivial metallic spike was sticking out the bottom of both), and I'm going to do a mini DIY on them just to bandbox them up a bit. They'd been languishing at the dorsum of the wardrobe in the spare room, and so I'd totally forgotten I had them. They take a bit of a Sixties shape to them and they fit like a dream, so I call up they're worth a makeover…!

This Friday I'll exist posting Part 3 of my Give Your Web log A DIY Design Makeover series, and then look out for that. And I'll be hosting a giveaway next week for some great shopping vouchers – it'due south all happening here at NDAL HQ! 😉
