I don't usually do frills. I like them - on other people - they have just never made it into my wardrobe. But when you borrow dresses, you end up with things that are different from your usual and I've discovered that I love wearing fills! The one on the hem flips as I walk and the fills on my shoulders are such a nice alternate to sleeves. Maybe I will have to fill-ify my wardrobe!
And now for a gratuitous cake shot because we haven't had one for awhile given the current frock focus of my blog. It was a colleague's birthday today which of course necessitates a visit to the Flue and resulted in the purchase of this amazing chocolate caramel cake topped with various flavours of macaroon. I had both a caramel (the white one) and blood orange (the orange one) as well as some cake and it was all incredibly delicious.
OMG a macaron-covered cake, I want!! Gorgeous dress xx
ReplyDeleteThat is a cake?! Oh wow. I'd have been thrilled if it was just ('just') macarons on a plate.
ReplyDeleteCake, macarons, frills, and smiles? Sounds pretty perfect to me :)
ReplyDeleteLoving all this Frocktober inspiration - you have some great looking professional dresses - that's hard to pull off! It's a pleasure to visit you blog!

KittyCate - it was great!
ReplyDeleteKari - I know! And it was amazing value. There were 15 macroons on it and it only cost $35. At the normal price of macroons, I think it makes the cake part free.
Hannah - it was fairly perfect.
Catherine - thank you. Some of them have been rather less than professional, but I love dresses so I've collected plenty to wear to work over the years. I find it is so much quicker to get ready when I just put on a dress!
