I love it when things happen in threes! My gorgeous, gorgeous skirt arrived last night by my trusty DHL man. It fits (although it is a bit snug) and it is beautiful. I will not enter a long and boring monologue about the quality of the garment but all I will say is, it well worth every penny. One of the best bargains I've ever had.
Then we all woke up to snow, a light smattering but it is still falling. Although in central London it is turning to sleet, in the suburbs it is still proper snowfall.
The petit garcon went straight into full loving the snow mode. He made angels in the playground and was so happy. Kids never tire of snow.
And my third delivery was a dog. A really cute shiatsu called Alfie. We're looking after my in-laws dog whilst they go off to Barbados. Yep, I feel slightly galled.
Although what with my Valentino skirt and a dog I actually think I'm in fashion accessory heaven.
We've got the snow, too! I remember being the Petit garcon's age and doing just that in all the excitement.
ReplyDeleteCan't wait to see you in that gorgeous skirt and the little pooch is so cute. xxx
Dear Kate, I'm still totally over excited about the snow at 41!
ReplyDeleteYour skirt is gorgeous and so is Alfie the Shitzu. What's he got in his mouth, it looks like a Christmas cracker! xx
Alfie and petit garcon both extremely adorable. I reckon being given a pup to look after is the only way I could get over any Barbados-related envy x
ReplyDeleteI'm happy to hear that the skirt lives up to your expectations, it really is beautiful. Just don't get dog hair on your lovely new skirt!
ReplyDeleteI finally saw the first season of Mad Men, subsequently I now own 2 new pairs of two-tone maryjane shoes and coral nail polish. I'm booked in to become blonde next week - god knows what season 2 will influence me to.
So happy your DHL Boyfriend delivered that fab skirt safely: you will never regret it.
ReplyDeleteI was shopping yesterday and thinking about your designer challenge, I think you are so sensible. Buying less but of super quality, I just think you can't go wrong.
Cute snow angel!
Snow here- sadly not settling into anything but slush (which will freeze no doubt and become deadly).
ReplyDeleteI've got some nice 40s style slacks and a twin-set on. And a coat (indoors). If I were at home I would have a dressing gown and/or poncho too! Brrr!
You skirt is gorgeous - Alfie slightly more so! Topping the cuteness scale though it petit garcon in the snow - a lovely trio of treats!
ReplyDeleteHi there-so pleased the skirt lives up to expectations, can't wait to see you in it!! The kids will make the most of the snow for sure, am hoping schools out for a couple of days, lol!!
ReplyDeleteThat skirt is stunning, I'm very envious. Finding a really good, interesting black skirt is seriously hard work and, you did it!!! xx
ReplyDeleteCan't wait to see your Valentino all styled-up. No snow in Blackpool yet, but love how kids enjoy the snow, they never seem to feel the cold! Ps I voted for your blog and Alfie is just too cute! xx
ReplyDeleteYay for delivers that fit, more or less. Any room to let it out a tad or is that not really necessary?
ReplyDeletePetit garcon is so sweet! Glad to see that he's fully recovered now and out enjoying himself.
ReplyDelete-super cute,
ReplyDeletegorgeous pictures(:
havea great day,

This is exactly what you need with snow - a child and a dog, they make is so much more fun, and of course you need Valentino for every occasion! Just saw your fabulous posing skills on Penny D's blog - you need that Nina Ricci dress!
ReplyDeleteSkirt, dog and snow angel maker - all totally gorgeous!!Have fun with them all!

I am so glad you didn't wear that skirt to make snow angels in!
