It may be winter outside


It’s easy to wear summer frocks all year round.


Add thermals or a full length vintage petticoat, thick tights,
a pair of boots and a cardigan


It was just a coincidence that my outfit matched the magazine
that arrived yesterday 


The dress is made by British maker Alfie who trades as Scarlet Sometimes.
I have a few of her creations and wear them a lot.


Like this gypsy skirt.


Pinafore


Crotchet jumper


Gingham dress and I have one in red




Skirt

If you’re an Instagram fan you’ll find Alfie and her creations here


She doesn’t even know I’ve done this little post but I felt we could
all do with a bit of colour on this miserable wet weekend.

Stay dry, keep colourful, summers on its way

  1. I love how you Winterize your Summer frocks, Lynn. Layering is indeed key, and your are doing it so well! And what a lovely parade of frocks, skirts and pinafores. They're all utterly gorgeous. Alfie is very talented indeed! xxx

    1. It’s nice to buy clothes that are made here by an individual and not a company xx

  2. When you love your clothes you'll find a way to wear them all year round! I love the challenge of layering up.
    What a fabulous array of outfits and that magazine looks very tempting indeed! xxx

    1. I’m like you Vix I just love to wear colour and if it means having to wear thermals under my frocks, so be it.
      Been to the opticians today and had three different comments about my outfit, all saying how summery and stylish I looked. I hope it rubs off onto folk.
      The lady who runs the textile group I’m in is featured in it. I don’t buy it all the time, just when there’s someone I know in it. My favourite mag at the moment is Reclaim and Period Living. My friend gets one and I get the other. xxx
