When I bought the suit two years ago (on Vinted) I had to adjust the trousers - see that post here - but then last year one of the trouser darts started to come apart and I've only recently fixed it. The crunchy boucle fabric is not as robust as it seems and is liable to unravel. Not only that when I took the trousers to a sewing shop in Truro for some advice they said that hand sewing is by far the best way to deal with any repairs on this type of fabric, which is what I've just recently done.
This was my work outfit for Friday, one of those perfectly sunny days that just had us all swooning at the view as I stood at the desk at work.
My yellow beaded bag by Dune was a great match for this week's outfit again along with my Emily Nixon rings - I must try to mix my jewellery up a bit better, but that's a whole other story.
My Dr Martens work beautifully with the trouser suit aside from being easy to wear, and always draw a compliment or two.
Fiona was back behind the camera this week after last week's photobombing. That's not to say that we didn't suffer the same problem this time - they just didn't make it onto the blog! I'll leave you with a fabulous shot taken from last week when the island was looking as perfect as you could get. These are the pinch-me days when I really can't believe how lucky I am to live here.
