Hello my lovelies ... how are you?
Very eager to share today's post with you.
I'm happy to say I'm co-hosting with Jennie, she's the lady behind A Pocketful of Polka Dots if you've not visited her blog before I suggest you pop over there tout de Suite, because she's got some enchanting and very stylish ideas.
What's more we'd love you to join the Fabulous Friday Link Up & share your outfits.
Earlier on today you might have seen my Throw back Thursday blog post, I re-visited a few of my favourite outfits from the past year & you can check them out here!
With the weather starting to change here in the UK, the inevitable comes to mind and I start thinking of slightly warmer clothes for the cooler days that are arriving. I wanted to keep the summer in mind so decided to style this summer dress for colder weather.
White with a thin black pinstripe all over it, my dress has cap sleeves and a round neck, fitting below the knee it's a fabulous dress for a warm summer evening, for the transitional period this M & S shift dress is working really nicely over jeans.
Pulling out my white boot cut option from storage, I haven't worn these for a few years but fancied a change from the slim fitting style I've been wearing of recent months. Giving an Autumnal feel to my look with some tan accessories - including these block heel court shoes, I've also worn these with a girly dress & the perfect Chambray shirt dress.
The necklace is from Matalan you can find similar here.
I've really got the hots for it! With gold rings & beads around the tan leather like strands, it really does it for me. A great length sitting mid way on my neck which is just right for the M & S dress I chose to wear. My choice proves to be stylish & has endless possibilities.
What outfit doesn't respond well from the addition of a neutral bag? The clutch I've added is a really basic, beige suedette bag, similar ideas here
. Every bag collection needs statement bags, but they also need the good ol' reliable variety too! That's what mine is.
Now lets take a look at this link-up, I hope you can join in the fun, sharing your outfits along the way - I can't wait to see what you're all wearing, I love getting ideas for new outfits!

Meet your host for Fabulous Friday, Jennie of A Pocketful of Polka Dots. ∼ Hey y'all, I'm Jennie and I am a 47 year old frugal fashionista! I am mom to two wonderful (and handsome!) sons and one very spoiled Pomeranian. After spending most of my life in black and boring clothes, I now enjoy trying new trends, am a confessed shoeaholic, believe life is too short for boring hair, and never met a polka dot I didn't like. I am also an avid photographer, reader of Jane Austen, Paleo/Primal enthusiast, and lover of DIY. You can follow me here ∼
I hope you stop by Jennie's blog to see who she has chosen!
