Ivy & Gold

I know I said I wouldn't keep posting all the time, but I did something of merit today. I actually went out and took photos of my dress! Yes, my lovely dress, the one I made at the start of the summer, decided I didn't like it, took it apart and re-made it. I think it still needs a little lace along the bottom, but otherwise it's all done! :)









It's just a floral cotton dress, lined with linen and it has lace around the neckline, for a nice touch.

It was rather cool and windy today, the sun was warm but the wind make me quite cold, hence the tights and cardigan.

Dress - handmade
Belt - second hand
Bag - street market
Cardigan - Zara
Shoes - H&M

All photos taken by me in local fields :)

  2. Hey, I found you on lookbook, I like your style and your blog and I'm actually studying physics, hehe ;P

    Also, where do you actually live and where are you going to study? Now I don't mean to be creepy stalker nosey it's just that I think I recognized a city near me on your pictures and now I'm just curious whether you're actually near me and are maybe even going to end up on the same uni as me. That would be quite funny P:

  3. Addie:Thanks so much <3

    noir-muse: Thanks :)
    I'm in France but I'm studying in London. I think the only city pictures I've posted were Cologne, I used to study near there but not any more. That would be a funny coincidence though :)

  4. You're welcome ;)

    Yes Cologne indeed. I'm studying in Bonn, so that's near there, and oooh, London, wow, I hope I can go there for my Masters but it's so expensive :/

    It is expensive, but it's just where I got accepted.
