Overalls, my fun weekend wear




Hello and how's tricks? I hope you're well and are enjoying Father's Day. This is my weekend outfit, as worn today, a pair of funky Lucy & Yak dungarees or overalls depending on what you call them. I found these on Vinted and have managed to find another pair here if you'd like them too! These baggy overalls are made from stretch cotton and have three front pockets, one of them on the chest, perfect for storing your sunglasses and tissues.




I got up early this morning to take some blog photos before the rest of the island woke up. We had a busy day ahead with some friends coming to visit us from St Martin's, so Steve and I pushed to get lots of chores done ready to have a day of leisure. We met them at the Abbey Garden where we stopped for coffee and cake, then meandered to New Grimsby where we had a long lunch at the New Inn, finally making our way slowly to Old Grimsby in time for their boat back. It was a good day of eating, drinking and chatting in no particular order.




My Lucy & Yak dungarees require little jazzing up; a plain white top (pre-loved) and white Replay trainers (TK Maxx) complete the look. Dungarees have no age limit and look equally good on toddlers or oldies like me. I intend to be wearing these well into my dotage!




My plastic rings are both pre-loved as is my blue and white necklace. My sunglasses are by Radley London. 




If, like me, you have broad feet, then you might like to try out Replay trainers. I've now bought four pairs and love that they're all-day comfortable.




The sea was temptingly calm this morning and it would have been rude not jump in for a swim. It was my first time swimming on Appletree Bay for a while as there had been a big influx of blue jellyfish washed in on the big tide last week. Today I didn't see any which was a relief!




Wishing you a fab week!

  1. Hooray for no jellyfish!

    I love these overalls, Anna - I have been looking for a pair for myself, but it's so hard to find good ones that aren't crap quality. My wish list is for some sort of white or light denim, so I keep looking.

    Sending you good vibes for a fantastic week ahead, my friend!

    1. I owe you a visit Kezzie - too much time has passed since I dropped by, sorry! Blue/purple jellyfish appear here most summers. I dodged past one on this morning's swim x

  4. I love those bright and cheery dungarees. I recently donated mine, they were from the 70s and ridiculously small for me now. Tessa x
