Bumblebees and Sequins.

Yesterday I had to go into town again to buy some birthday presents. While browsing for birthday presents, I got a little side tracked and I bought another yellow dress (this time from TopShop) and it's silly because not so long ago I owned virtually nothing yellow and now I own two dresses. It's yellow broderie anglaise and I also bought the little wicker bow bag which I mentioned a couple of posts ago. I ran with the yellow and black theme which is a combination I love seeing other bloggers wear!
Cardigan, H&M
Dress, TopShop
Necklace, Possibly TopShop
Belt, River Island
Shoes, KG tap shoes (even though you can't see them!)

I spotted a sequinned skirt in Miss selfridge today but it was super expensive and I'm not so sure on the fit. It's a shame really because I am loving the trend for black sequins! Especially from none other than Miss Bubble herself!
It's also my summer soiree tonight which is held in our History Of Art Department (also a gallery) which is a grade II listed building and has a beautiful art deco interior. I will be playing croquet and giant connect four on the lawn with all my closest friends. Don't worry I will be posting a few photos when I get back!

    You have the cutest style, I think it was a great idea to pair it with a belt. It breaks the body up more.

    That skirt looks cute, too.

    It's great that you are building up your yellow collection, because I think you wear it well. Love the detail of the fabric.
