The knobbly handbag only cost me a couple of pounds in a charity shop but I knew it would add interest to any outfit.<br /><br />The island is so lovely at this time of year, hence we are awash with visitors which keeps me in a job, thank goodness!<br /><br />Anna xAnna's Island Stylehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04997013627919505807noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5020891948274286259.post-13424570895542412022017-07-11T07:42:22.609+01:002017-07-11T07:42:22.609+01:00These are all the reasons I fell for these Kezzie,...These are all the reasons I fell for these Kezzie, plus the fact that the material is lovely, floppy and very flattering.

I know what you mean about culottes as I feel the same way too, but keep seeing others wearing them which spurs me on to bring mine out too. I think the more you wear them, the more you like them. Keep trying!<br /><br />I really love these shoes too, but flats don't inspire me as much as heels - something to do with the fact that I long to be four inches taller I suppose.<br /><br />Thanks for all of you lovely input x<br /><br />AnnaAnna's Island Stylehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04997013627919505807noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5020891948274286259.post-30308588126324233102017-07-11T07:35:03.204+01:002017-07-11T07:35:03.204+01:00Thanks Jodie.

I must admit I'm in a bit of a trousers groove at the moment and am having to force myself to mix it up for the sake of the blog. I did enjoy wearing these however, and have another cute top that will work really well too.<br /><br />Have a fab week x<br />AnnaAnna's Island Stylehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04997013627919505807noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5020891948274286259.post-41613439566087497432017-07-11T07:32:07.186+01:002017-07-11T07:32:07.186+01:00Hi Tessa!

I live my life through rose coloured spectacles and make no apologies for that whatsoever!<br /><br />I've been so lucky to land this job that gives me a legitimate reason to dress up daily.
