A New Top in Four Seasons

Yesterday, I got a lovely surprise in the post. The team at Room31 Fashion (use SGS25 for 25% off your next order) sent me this gorgeous Vero Moda top! So I just had to wear it today...


Here's the top up close - the grape and vine pattern is coral/pink/dark grey on a cream base and there's a cute pleat detail on the neckline and over the shoulders. You can find it here on the website. I started the day with a cream cropped cardigan over as it was nice out but a bit nippy...

As I was about to go on the school run, the skies opened and I had to get the boots on and swap my cardigan for a grey wool jacket (last seen here)...


When I got home, I grabbed my cosy long grey cardigan to warm me up...
But as the evening went on, the sun came out and it warmed up a bit so I ditched the boots & cardigan and put on my Fly wedges...could summer be round the corner? <hopeful>
Now any top that can take me through so many weather changes is a keeper - I know I'm going to get lots of wear from it. Make sure you have a little browse on the Room31 site - it has a lovely mix of unique pieces and you'll be supporting a great small business run by one of the hardest working girls I've come across in a long time...and I'm not just saying. I've been a fan for a while now and my postman has delivered more than a few pink bags :) 
Jeans throughout are Boden Bootcuts in dark indigo. The Fly Pecam wedges are the same as these ones from Amazon, though mine are a stone coloured canvas with leather. They add about 3 inches to my height and they are unbelievably comfortable. 
Fingers crossed for a sunny weekend - catch you all tomorrow!

  5. Hi
    I have found you via various blogs talking about the vile comments on Daily Mail, just dropping by to say something nice and give some support. I am hopeless at keeping up my posts and always feel like a bit of a voyeur, or a single man at a wife swapping party, who reads everyone else's but gives nothing of themselves! Will definitely post tomorrow!
    Great top and the cut of the jeans are perfect on you!

  6. Wow! Really cute stuff and the prices! £3.99 postage, even to Australia. I see myself buying lots of gifts my my English niece and sisters in law cause I can deliver straight to them. Fab!
