I watched Anastasia last night, on Phee's recommendation. It reminded me that I used to be fascinated by the Romanovs when I was younger. In fact russia in general caught my attention. There just seemed to be something mystical about it. To my mind at least, Russia was a sort of Narnia; all glittering snow, fairytales, ballets, and sparkling baubles.
Taking my lead from the Romanovs, I donned the nautical stripes...

| The Romanov Children. In hindsight I think it all went to my head a bit. Is there is such a thing as too nautical?! got rinsed at work, not to mention the heckling I got on my walk there.        |
I don't think that's too nautical at all! Great outfit :) I really want that cardigan now.. Was it a recent Primark purchase by any chance?

Aw that's such a cute outfit! Not too nauticual! I love Anastasia. :]
ReplyDeleteI LOVE that you wore tap shoes as everyday footwear. I might take the taps off my spare pair and do the same! Also, are those Primark two-tone brogues in the later pic? I think I have the same ones!
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you left me a comment on Bette on Toast today - I might not have discovered your lovely blog otherwise!
Yes they are- well spotted that I changed the footwear (thought I'd got away with it).
ReplyDeleteOh yes you should, they are so classic looking and much cheaper than vintage, or faux vintage ones.
thank you :) love yours makes me smile every time you post. x
