What I wore: ASOS floral midi skirt


I got back from holiday less than a week ago and already it feels like I never went away. My wanderlusting will have to take a backseat for a little while however, as I've used up most of my holiday. Sniff sniff! That said, I did manage to sneak in a crafty few days at my mum's in France for her birthday in November. The next big travel decision will of course be our honeymoon, which we've been furiously saving for as I'd love to go somewhere special. I've resigned myself to the fact that becoming a homeowner is a long way off for me. There are so many beautiful houses in the capital, but a quick search on property for sale in London puts me back in my place. I have some serious saving to do! It seems my priorities drift to somewhat more manageable goals: a nice holiday, a regular gym membership, the odd meal out here and there.

Anyway, enough daydreaming about warmer climes and yummy plates of food! Today I wanted to share an outfit I wore on holiday. We were in Sumartin at the time (blogged about here) and I wanted to wear a pretty skirt to mark the one year countdown until we get married on 5 September next year. This ASOS floral midi skirt has become a top contender for both the office and at home. It's almost a thick jersey material so very comfy and flattering. Plus it stretches after a big meal (I take stock of these things when shopping). we paused on our way to the restaurant for a few snaps on the water's edge. The light was dimming so I can't vouch too well for the sharpness of these pictures, but it was a beautiful evening all the same.

Warehouse cardigan (old)
New Look wide strap buckle sandals - now £8
Oasap oversized clutch* (old)
Joggers have also become a firm wardrobe staple for me this year, and I'm trying to get as much wear out of them as I can before the bitter winter chill sets in. I picked up this latest pair from New Look for £17.99, and they're so utterly comfy I could wear them every day.

I hope you all had perfect weekends and are making the most of the milder air before the chills come. On Sunday I treated Frank to lunch at the OXO tower and was very proud of myself for choosing the salmon over the enormous burger that Frank lay his hands on (although I managed to commandeer a couple of bites... The ingredients were so fresh and the salmon was perfectly crispy on the outside and juicy in the middle. Delish.

I seem to have engineered a very busy week for myself this week: various social events, a consultation with a personal training and slotting some gym classes in between. I'll definitely be trying to sneak some early nights in there too or else I'll be well and truly pooped by Sunday! What do you have planned?
