Or Squirrel Charmer…
I seemed to be both at the weekend, when out and about with Miguel and Mum who was over visiting. These pictures were taken in Russell Square, on what was a crisp, bright afternoon. My main goal was to show you the long-lusted-after Vivetta cat skirt that I finally splurged on last month. It’s my new favourite thing! What’s better than wearing a lookalike of your own kitty around your waist? Nothing, that’s what. It’s just the kind of playful design from Vivetta that I adore. If only I could afford the entire collection (I did make another naughty purchase but more on that at a later date!).
Judging by the pictures, it looks like my bright new My Suelly bag pulled the most focus though, ahhhhh it’s so beautiful! I couldn’t be more grateful, I can’t take my eyes off it. I’ve taken to placing it next to my computer screen, just so I can glance at it every now and again. Is it normal to feel this way about an accessory?!
If only I could spend every afternoon taking a walk in the park. With a nasty cold and dissertation draft deadline looming, I can’t help but feel I’m not going to have another afternoon like this for a little while. I’m more “PJs in bed with tissues surrounding me” than “pretty skirt in the park with falling leaves surrounding me” at the moment. Still..it’s nearly time to go home for Christmas! x

That skirt is so unique! Lovely bag too, I have a Mulberry Bayswater and I actually miss it when I don’t have it with me. So you’re totes normal to feel that way about an accessory (although I’m probably a little odd haha) xx
This is the cutest skirt that I ever did see! Would love to have one!
Hope you’re having a great week!
Miki.
Super cute skirt!
Ohhh that squirrel is soo cute ._.
and they’re so cool!
i love the fact that there so many squirrels in London, its hart to find some in Germany
That feline motif skirt is absolutely darling! And the squirrel makes a nice photo shoot companion.

I had no idea squirrels would be so game. I love your bag as well, and yes staring at it by the computer screen seems normal… i think.
Ahh I’ve been looking forward to see this! The skirt looks amazing on you, Carrie
Stay warm and take care!
I know what you mean with PJs+tissue+deadlines, such an evil trio… I’ve just been through one of those and it was awful (plus sleepless nights!), but you’ll be enjoying delightfully lazy walks in the park again soon

ah this outfit is so beautiful! your legs look great in those grey tights, and the bag is of course amazing. Squirrels just so happen to be my 2nd favorite animal for me so this post is all around a win win {win}. Love!
Oh your skirt is so pretty!! And I love the bag. I hope you start to feel better. Colds are no fun when one has a deadline =<
Too beautiful and charming! Meow!
Ohh, that skirt has been on my wishlist forever! I was so excited when you said you had bought it (on twitter) and it is even more amazing to see it on! <3 <3 <3 Such beautiful photographs, Carrie! You are such a babe! x
So lovely! I adore your photos–always beautiful!
Your cat skirt is one of the most adorable things I’ve ever seen! And I think it’s quite a talent to pull off a look that’s both elegant and playful. Super cute!
Oh my goodness! I definitely cannot afford to buy my own cat skirt, but I may have to try and make my own asap! You look lovely
You are such a cutie patootie.
Aww your skirt is so cute! I love fun clothes like this. I really like your bag too, it’s lovely and very eye-catching. I can’t stop looking at it…
As an owner of a black cat I am in absolute LOVE with this!! <3
That skirt is all kinds of adorable! Super jealous indeed. & Don’t worry it’s perfectly normal to feel that way about any form of clothing, well at least I hope so as I do it all the time (:
You look stunning, that skirt is to die for and so is the bag!
Something about the look screams Blair Waldorf, stunning lady!

Aw, that skirt is brilliant!
I can’t believe how tame squirrels are in London, up here they’re so timid and shy. x
That squirrel is too cute! The skirt is too adorable and I love the bright red satchel too – perfect for brightening up dark winter days.
So impressed by your squirrel taming skills! x
Your blog is heavenly! Every picture is amazing! x
That skirt is adorable! And I can’t believe how close that squirrel got, amazing! Haha. I can’t wait to go home for Christmas either, this semester has definitely been draining x

This is the kind of outfit which makes fashion so fun to look at !
The cat skirt is a delight and it looks beautiful on you. It’s not an easy one to wear: I’d probably look like a big fat thing in it !
The red bag and matching lipstick (with the matching phone cabins) make the whole post even more special.
LOVE your blog
So lovely!
you’re so beautiful and have an impeccable style!
Beautiful outfit and a amazing bag.
