konnichiwa

Just a quick post, lovelies, as I am off to the cinema this evening. My pictures were confined to the great British indoors today as it has been grey, miserable and rainy for the last three days where I live. Just a few days ago, I was raving about how gorgeous the weather had been - I guess I must have jinxed it! The pictures we did take weren't that great, so there are only a couple, but I really wanted to make a post for my new summer jacket.

Love love love. It's a gorgeous, lightweight chiffon, with big, kimono style sleeves - we didn't get a good shot of the sleeves, but definitely will when I wear it next. It feels so pretty and oriental - I love anything inspired by Japan. I wore it over a pretty basic, all black outfit but am already itching to wear it with brights and sandals - when the sun makes another appearance, maybe! This outfit is definitely more autumnal than I'm used to of late, but hopefully I'll be back in my summer brights and skirts before too long.

Bye for now! xo
