Stripes, polka-dots, bubblegum pink purse


Stripes and polka dots -- Why not? Let's do it. My two favorite patterns together in one outfit.


I bought this necklace on eBay as that is my thing these days, and it's sharp little points dig into my skin. It's a little more than I bargained for, but at least it looks classic cute.


The polka-dot dress and striped sweater were both thrifted (and actually so were my ballet flats now that I think about it). The purse was eBay years and years ago. I actually think it was my very first eBay purchase.


Bubblegum pink, faux-snakeskin, it is my party purse. Or my theater purse. Or my hanging out on a sunny day by a fountain purse.


It was so sunny and lovely, I didn't wear leggings or boots, and I even took off my sweater. And to think just days earlier, there had been sleet... what a wackadoodle winter this has been! Maybe spring will be more sane.

    It's been almost summer-like here in the UK today, I've been gardening all day long. Your handbag is really pretty.
