Love these colours on you and the beautiful print is lovely. <br /><br />The garden pics are amazing (and I am a bit obsessed with photographing raindrops on cobwebs, which sounds a lot more Sound of Music that it really is). <br /><br />As always, your bangles are fantastic - and your garden is so lush and GREEN, I want to move in. That's ok, right? I'm coming over. <br /><br />Lust, <br /><br />Sarah xxxAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16235255775524330362noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8489237810886177584.post-10255512708638671512013-10-08T21:51:19.022-07:002013-10-08T21:51:19.022-07:00Love the outfit.

You're looking good anyway, I seem to remember seeing your dress before and being very taken with it, and I like boot weather too, though not the grey skies that go with it. That photo of a leaf with beads of water on it is intriguing, it doesn't look real. Lately I've not been feeling very patient with kids at all, mine or other peoples, so I really admire you for helping out at the school, I could imagine you being really encouraging to the kids who struggle a bit, I remember some teachers at school who really knew how to make learning fun, rather than just going through the motions, but I think that's quite a rare talent. Still remember Mr Woodhouse the english teacher and the gigantic crush I had on him, oh he was lovely. xxCityScape Skybabyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10664705819999740018noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8489237810886177584.post-23249788840325029272013-10-03T23:11:41.303-07:002013-10-03T23:11:41.303-07:00I am always more patient with the teenagers in my ...I am always more patient with the teenagers in my tutor groups than I am with my own but I suppose it is because we don't have to give out that energy 24/7.<br />I like the way the outfit comes together with the belt.<br />You have sensational legs.The Small Fabric Of My Lifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05584379200783754320noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8489237810886177584.post-42960817630346003392013-10-03T19:20:34.654-07:002013-10-03T19:20:34.654-07:00I adore that skirt and love it with the black top

The dress is amazing, you know from before ... but the black jacket, the semi-sheer tights, the boots ... everything... all so gorgeous. A whole lot of my favorite elements. Just the best. Can you tell I like it? Asian images!!!<br />Reading with kids is the best thing in the world. I just love it that I know you, Curtise. <br />I understand a little about your drained feelings. Probably not the same circumstance, but after I have a particularly good or satisfying day, I have a tendency to rate the next ordinary day as a bad one ... my own expectations, of course, high and low. But mostly, it sucks when you're sick no matter what actually happens, good or bad. So I hope you get better much sooner than later! Cyber hugs to you!
