Blue and Green Should Never be Seen…
..or so my mum told me this morning when I came downstairs. Well, I think it looks alright! Truth of the matter is, I can’t stand not wearing a hat so it was the best of the 7 options I brought home with me. Yup, 7.
I just had to get out of the house today. It’s the end of the holidays and I’ve accomplished absolutely nothing in terms of University work. I’ll sit myself down in front of the computer only to be distracted by eBay, or reading blogs. I keep telling myself it will all work itself out, perhaps the night before hand-in! Please tell me I’m not the only one?!
I borrowed Miguel‘s new coat for our little jaunt, as I love navy with the pumpkin orange colour of my tights, which are making their 100000th appearance this winter. I’m sure all you Nadinoo fans haven’t missed what I’m wearing with them either! As a thank you for creating the AW11 film, she sent across the beautiful ‘a Bird a Day’ dress. It’s such a beautiful print, you could study it for ages, reading the names of all the birds. As it’s a cotton dress, I’m looking forward to styling it when it’s a little warmer in the spring, so I don’t have to crumple it up with a coat over the top. I’m practically counting down the days until it’s bare leg weather.. x

I see that quite a lot of people leave links for you to visit, but as you mentioned you are often distracted by blogs I have to share my favorite, besides yours! It’s called bleubirdvintage.blogspot.com and I have absolutely nothing to do with it… but the clothes and DIY’s are amazing, so I wanted to pass it along to a fellow true lover of all things vintage and fashion!
And of course, that’s wrong. It is http://www.bleubirdvintage.typepad.com
I love the bird print, its quite unique and looks great with the tights!

I absolutely LOVE your outfit! It’s so fab! I wish I had clothes like yours…sigh…

I love these pictures, you have an amazing sense of style!
haha even my mom used to say “blue and green should never be seen”!
I have not accomplished anything in these holidays. Tomorrow begins the university and today I started doing my work! Disaster.
Love your Nadinoo dress, it’s my favourite of Nadinoo collection.
You look great in the whole look, including green hat!
Love the dress so much, and I think the hat looks beautiful with the coat! As always, you look amazing!

Hi Carrie, I read you from Spain since a long time ago but I never comment because I dont feel very confident about writing in English. Well I think it is a bit selfish not ever letting you know that your posts always communicate me sweetness and good vibes. This Christmas when I didnt have many reasons to celebrate I read a lot of old entries and they really made my day. Thanks!!
Very lovely pictures – your dress is so beautiful… I really love your style of pictures!

You look beautiful! I’m right there with you on not being able to get anything done as far as school work comes. I neeeed to buckled down soon!
Gorgeous dress, and blue & green totally do go together!!!
And don’t worry; I’ve been procrastinating studies for a number of weeks now…! :/
The colours in this outfit are gorgeous, the green and navy go great together actually. That Nadinoo print is fantastic.
Also you’re lucky to be able to wear Miguel’s coat, my boyfriend’s clothes are way too big for me, booh.

That dress is just amazing! I love it! I love the print! Your outfit is just lovely! Thanks so much for sharing!
What is it about bird prints that make one so happy? Love it. My mom always forbad me from wearing pink and red together. I admit, I sometimes do now that I’m grown, just because I can.
This is lovely
Absolutely beautiful.

Wonderful, wonderful pictures. I love the montgomery you wear in the firsts pics.

Of all the newest Nadinoo dresses that has got to be one of my absolute favourites. So pretty!
Beautiful duffle coat! Maybe I should take a look on the men side in shops!
Lovely dress too
This dress is amazing! I love it! Your photos inspire me.
Stunning dress! I love the little birds!!!
My last comment had the wrong link to my blog . . . oops
Now that is the perfect dress to wear when going bird watching (and at any other time of course). Beautiful!
You look so lovely. Whenever I go home to visit, my mom always gives me the strangest looks at the outfits I come up with.
Amazing! That dress is just stunning. I would just stare at my own boobs and belly and whatever else I could see just to read all the birds
I think this outfit is gorgeous but what I really love is that beret ♥
Love the dress, it’s so lovely
