It’s MLK Day here on Monday so we have a lovely long weekend. I wasn’t looking forward to it earlier in the week as it was so cold and lashing it down with freezing rain. Now though I am thrilled as the skies are blue, the sun is shining and my windows are open. Spring is taunting us.
On Thursday night I had a lovely dinner with an old friend from my corporate days. It was so much fun to catch up especially as she has got married and is now in the process of changing jobs – my stories felt comparatively dull!
Boots – AllSaints Alba (on sale and now reduced even further) // Leather trousers – J.Brand (old but the same here) // Jumper – Everlane cashmere tunic
Yesterday was my day off and after completing another grueling work out (I will be 20lbs lighter by the summer!) I was lucky enough to have the afternoon with my Husband chatting and walking the dogs in the sunshine.
Sneakers – Stan Smiths in navy // Trousers – J.Crew drapey wool trousers in navy // Jumper – Everlane cashmere v-neck
These Stan Smiths are pretty awesome – yup if you’re counting that’s another new pair.
Today I took Poppy to the mall. It’s always so much fun to treat her after a good week at school and right now her favorite store is The Body Shop and who am I to discourage cleanliness and personal grooming!?
Jumpsuit – OAK (on sale) // Shoes – Nine West // Jacket – Helmut Lang (on sale)
And I got to take my new baby out. Really? Who for one moment thought I wouldn’t buy it? I am in love.
After hitting The Body Shop, where of course we had to buy the limited edition Smoky Poppy product line, we headed to Sephora where I bought the travel sized Hourglass Veil Primer to try. I’ve heard amazing things about this stuff. Lets see if it delivers.
Tomorrow is my Blogversary – 3 whole years! I still love this little creative outlet as much as ever and my world would be empty without all the amazing friends I have met through it. What will year 4 bring?
Happy Blogversary Poppy’s Style. I really do love that bag and with that outfit soon although I’m guessing you didn’t do too much walking in the mall with those heels?? x
You know what they are actually incredibly comfy – they are only 3″ and I was nervous to wear them shopping but I forgot I had heels on – I think it is the fact they cover most of my foot too so no rubbing anywhere. It’s lovely to wear peep toes in January:) x
Bag envy! It’s gorgeous! I had a good catch up with your blog the other day & you look amazing atm! Love your hair with a fringe! Happy Blogversary Poppys Style! x
I love the first two outfits – I could totally wear those. I’m too chicken to try the jumpsuit though I’d love to try one at some point. And that sounds wonderful – just you and the hubs taking the dogs out for a nice walk – it’s the simple things.
And if you’re nearly on your 4th year … I can’t be that far behind you. Who would have thought I could keep something going for so long – even I’ve surprised myself.
Seriously – NO ONE thought for a moment that the bag didn’t get bought haha!! I adore it and can’t wait to see it in RL soon. Love the Alba boots too – look fab on you xx
