I've never polked a dot as spotty as this

Today I took Little Miss A to story time at the local library - it was overcast and a cool wind was-a-blow'n so it was time to get the scarves out.



I got this scarf as a belated Christmas present from a friend so I had to wait until the cooler weather, and what better combination than with more spots.



While Little Miss A was having her daytime nap the sun came out and I soaked up the heat that was radiating off of the cement in the backgarden, I new there was a reason why our back garden was cemented over.

Spots and Stripes and Stars

Something new for the year: mixing patterns, I'm a pretty plain dresser I think, not too adventurous with patterns or accessorising, so this year I am going to make more of an effort to mix it up.



I was cleaning out my wardrobe yesterday (I had a very large pile of un-ironed, hardly worn, no longer fit clothes) and found this skirt I bought a long while ago.



I remember why it ended up at the bottom of my wardrobe, I didn't know what top to wear with it and which way to wear it - big spots at the front or back - yeah I know that is a really silly dilemma.



So with my new attitude towards patterns I gave it a go this morning, and I like it.
