As suggested by...Erin.

Welcome to the third feature of this name where you chose the theme of my outfit. Erin emailed me to say that she really loved these snakeskin print boots and asked to see them again as I've only worn them once before. I had hoped to put a link to the first time I wore them but in the editing I managed to cock this up magnificently and have now lost that entire post from my archives. Showing it would mean I have to republish the draft of a January post in the middle of July. I'm sure it's all irrelavant in the grand scheme of things. It's the first of July, so let's just keep forging on eh?



I'm delighted to be ask to style these beauties up again, particularly as it's not an obvious choice now that the weather has turned mild (at last). At the first hint of sunshine most of us are happy to pack up our boots and bring out the sandals. I'm the same, but still, I do have a few pairs of boots hanging about that have the chance of making one more appearance just as these have today. The colourway is what makes these so easy to translate into a summer outfit. As you see they really don't look out of place with my cream jeans and embroidered top.






And look! Here's my paintbrush necklace again. I'd completely forgotten about this beauty as it was packed away in its box out of sight. Apologies for the whole walking montage that follows. I thought I'd introduce a slight variation to the blog today, but who would have imagined that walking could prove to be so problematic? Just that simple putting one foot in front of the other thing, you know, like I've been doing all my life, but somehow it seemed to be so difficult today. Anyway, I couldn't decide which looked the most authentic and so will leave it for you to decide.










So here you have it Erin. I'm really pleased with this fresh feeling outfit and think these boots are the perfect finish. I really hope that you agree. 

So for those of you who are new to the blog, I'd like to invite you too to take part in this monthly offering. If you would like me to style up a particular piece again but in a different way, then please drop me an email, or message me on Instagram or leave a comment at the bottom of the page. I love to read all your comments, and particularly if you want to spark the next installment of this feature. 

Today's outfit comprises of embroidered top from Tu at Sainsbury (all sold out now I'm afraid) jeans are from M&S, boots are c/o J D Williams, paintbrush necklace is from Zincwhite, sunglasses are from Quay Australia, watch is by Michael Kors, handbag is from Accessorize many moons ago, bangles from a charity shop, brown ring is old and the nude ring is from Boots.

  2. That paintbrush necklace is darn special!

    I also wonder about me and walking photos. I never seem to get it right, although you seemed to have mastered it here : )

    1. I love this necklace, but can see my new tidying up efforts could have a negative aspect where I forget where I've tidied things to! Aaaahh, this walking does take years to perfect. But never mind in another decade you'll be as expert as me at it x

  4. I have been after cream jeans for ages now with no success! I love the whole outfit - so cool and summery. The bag is lovely and very summery as well.

    You take long strides for a short woman, Anna, I'd be running to keep up with you!

  5. Keep searching Veronica, you're sure to come across them sometime. I was delighted with the bag and top working so well together in this. I suppose I do take long strides. I walk as if I mean business is what my husband says.

  6. Really cute outfit. I would vote for the first two walking photos as I can see the boots very well.
    Indeed, this is what I do with cream coloured boots as well: save them for spring or colder summer days.

    1. This is a novel idea for me to wear boots in the summer. I would never have considered it without Erin's suggestion, but now can see the value in keeping them in the loop. Thanks for dropping by again x

  9. I have done the walking thing with my pups but straight toward the camera. I did get some good ones, but also got some wierd facial ecpressions, as are we always smiling when we walk? These look very natural, well done! Love the embroidery on your flowy top, those boots fantastic and unique, and I love the painter necklace.. I always love seeing pieces that are not mass produced and unique! Looking great!
    Thanks for linking up with turning heads tuesday

    1. Cherie of Style Nudge does the walking thing beautifully and inspired this effort, but golly Jess we took so many shots just to get these, and yes with some pretty odd facial expressions too. I love to add something quirky or unique to give my pesonal spin to an outfit and this paintbrush necklace really fits the bill.
      Have a great weekend x

  11. Fabulous look, Anna! I recently deleted a post by accident, and it bothered me sooo much. But then I decided that it really wasn't worth it to get that upset about it... Still annoying though...

    The boots look fabulous with the jeans. And I love the embroidery on the top! Such a fun necklace, too!

    1. Oh dear Andrea, I was very upset too as it was my birthday post featuring not just a good outfit, but also my birthday resolutions. It took me a bit of time to get over, but like you, I decided the only it mattered to was me, so had to move on. So lovely to have your positive feedback again x
