Red

Dress: Liz Jordan at Noni B silk
Sandals: Betts for Her patent
Bag: Vera May patent & painted
Necklace: Gift, silver

Finally posting pictures of the simple-yet-statement four piece outfit I wore to watch a certain small boy play his last cricket game of the season! The unseasonably warm weather (even at dusk) meant that something "floaty" was a MUST, so this asymmetrically tiered silk shift by Liz Jordan at Noni B was ideal, particularly in this vivid red rose print... so "in" this season despite the dress being at least five years old. Black & red "go well" together, as they say, making my choice of a comfortable pair of patent gladiator wedges from Betts for Her seem like a no-brainer while my convertible Vera May handbag - replete with a sweet scene of a front porch, flower-laden garden gate & fluffy white cat - gave me the option of carrying all my essentials via two short handles or one long cross-body strap.


Completing the look was this funky silver necklace - gifted by my dear friend Jenny - with the words, "Be Yourself; Everyone Else is Already Taken" etched on the large circular pendant. Scroll down to check it out in detail:
