Slip up






(Wearing a thrifted dress, thrifted slip, t-bars off Trademe and rabbit-and-mushroom-print bow from a vintage shop in Athens, Greece)

To take a wee break from the 7500 words I have due for varyingly agonising subjects, my brother Will and I went for a wander to our old school to enjoy the Autumnal colours and bask in the whimsy. I wore this $1 thrifted sheer dress, and I wish I'd had a black slip, because in this light I can see it looks a bit silly with the white. I have so much more to write, but I don't want to fall into that familiar old pattern of procrastination- oh I'll just check my blog comments, I wonder if anyone's emailed me, I wonder how my Google Reader is looking... and so on. I am yet to ever hand in an essay late, but I fear this week may be my undoing. Farewell!


Oh, but, my brother got me these lovely lily-shaped fairy lights in Thailand, from whence he's just returned. Thanks Wills, you're an alright buy.

  1. Pretty dress. I am a sucker for red and polka dots. I know what you mean about all the writing. I just handed in a 4500 word essay today and I have another due on Friday. I should probably be working on that right now.

  6. Love the sheerness of your dress! The print is just lovely as well and I think you styled the outfit perfectly. And good luck on all of your school work. 7500 words is quite a lot :-) xx
