Yet another window in my house used as an outfit background. There's something very flattering about too much light & slightly softer focus. The reason we have so many weirdly shaped windows in our house is because my dad used to make stained glass & when I was a baby he knocked down our house and built it back up, only keeping the original front, so he put in all these church type round topped windows. I'll put up a photo of the little one between our kitchen & hall one day...
Enough about windows. More about this coat. Jay came into his own discussing coats with the scary gun men in the Army Surplus shop. I say scary gun men because the person who was before us was asking about different types of bullet holders. & it was Rememberence Sunday so there were a lot of "warry" people around anyway. Not my natural habitat in over the knee socks & dress printed with pin up girls. But after one of the scary gun men brought out this second hand coat with lovely hood & cotton & waterproof lining & a string around the waist for a svelte silhouette (as my brother would say) I was hooked. After hanging it out to air (ie, stop smelling like wetness) for a couple of days I can finally wear it. Well happy.
Also the amazingly inspiring Jazzy Elizabeth over at hivennn has done an interview with me about SWEAT & general other things. It's a lovely blog that you should visit anyway but you can read my interview here.
Can I just say hello & thank you to all the new followers & how mathmatically lovely it is that I reached 111 followers so close to 11/11 or at least over Rememberence Sunday when we had the two minutes silence at 11.11. How perfect it would've been to be 11/11/11.
Can't wait.

beautiful lights coming from your window...I could sit there for hours just letting the light come in. And beautiful jacket as well, I have one that looks exactly the same, but in you it looks great! I am too short...
