SNA show us Festival Fashion

Morning my friends. 

How’s your week been?

I’ve had a wonderful weekend. Saturday evening I was at a wedding reception. Imagine how excited I was to find out it was a black tie event which as you well know means wearing a long evening dress! I’ve only worn an evening dress on a handful of occasions and I couldn’t wait to get ready for it. I’d bought a couple of dresses from a company called Goddiva and when they both arrived I couldn’t decided as I liked them both. I kept them just in case I need another for a suitable event, but who knows when that’ll be! They both looked great on and fitted like a glove although this one was a bit too long so had to be taken up! I didn’t do a bad job and revelled at how good it ended up. 

This is the drop shoulder fitted maxi I wore, but today’s post is really all about me and my co-partners for the Style not Age challenge which fell into my hands. I opted for a typical Summertime prompt of Festival Fashion purely because we’re in the height of summer festivals having just had Glastonbury and IOW gatherings with many more coming up including Edinburgh Fringe and the Leeds/Reading events.

Good morning. 

Hope you’re all well. 

I’ve had a busy few days getting everything done as I’m off for a long weekend to L’Escala tomorrow. It’s a little village on the Costa Brava coast in the bay of Roses. It’s been a holiday venue for us when the children were small and before that David used to holiday there with his parents back in the 70’s. We’ve seen a lot of changes over the years and I’m sure not having been there for quite a few years it’ll have changed even more! We’re staying in a hotel we used to walk past (we normally stayed in a villa and self catered) so it’ll be lovely to enjoy being ‘looked after’ for a change. Not all the family are coming with us, just Sophie and her fiancé along with James, and Davids’ sister, husband, daughter, son and his girlfriend will be joining us so it’s sure to be a fun few days. We’ve earmarked our favourite restaurants and pray we’ll be able to book a table - one in particular ( we call it “pigs cheeks” for obvious reasons) will be top of the list & I’ll share some piccys if I do manage to get there. 

I’ve got a couple of new bits to take and some pieces you’ve seen before and I’ll share them each day on IG for a little fashion show. ☺️

Thought I’d tempt you with my new bag today. I was kindly gifted this beautiful hobo sling bag from Elie Beaumont so let me know what you think about this stunning arm candy. 🤍

Items marked with * have been gifted to me, however these are 100% my own honest comments.
