Als de bloemen konden spreken zouden ze zwijgen

Hi! I'm so sorry that I haven't blogged in a while. I was studying like crazy for my finals. Anyway, this set returns to my traditional "english garden = pastels" combination. I really need to get rid of that... Next time I come across a location that is or has a garden, may it be british, french or italian, I'll try to use bold colors. I know the bag seems out of place for a garden, but the location is actually an hotel in the countryside (with a garden).

Teázik

Hello! So today's outfit is a teatime outfit, but not any teatime, the Ritz teatime. I decided to match this lovely light-colored dress with darker accessories (except for the headband and the necklace) to create a contrast and because an pale outfit for teatime seems so cliché. I decided to add the pearl necklace because it is the Ritz after all and elegance is never overstated (especially not during teatime at the Ritz). Passed many times in front of the Ritz during my trips to London, but never took the tea there. Will probably do next time I go.

Have a nice day and yes, I do love the word "teatime".

ДЕНБГА ДЕНБГУ РОДИТ

So, for today's outfit I decided to mix chic and casual together, since the Connaught Hotel is a very chic London hotel in a nice neighborhood, but I think nobody arrives there for a room in a ball gown or a cocktail dress (unless there is an event of some sort of course). I don't think anyone arrives in jeans either (but I'm sure it happens), so that's why I picked this lovely dress and matched it with a McQueen clutch and Union Jack ankle boots, both accessories adding some elegance to the look and some britishness. The other accessories are there to complete the look.
