Une hirondelle ne fait pas le printemps

Translation: one swallow doesn’t make it spring. Which kind of means that one positive sign doesn’t mean that something is actually real/happening. But I’m disregarding the figurative meaning and going for the literal one: I WANT SPRING so I wear LOTS OF SWALLOWS. Does that make it spring yet?
 dress, cardi: zara
tights, headband: h&m
shoes: sac d'anvers
ring: Alex Monroe

I guess not. Sigh. I guess a flower headband and open shoes kind of make it feel like spring though.
Are you guys sick of me nagging about the weather yet? It really is horrendous. And if I wouldn’t be going on about the weather, I’d be stressing out over the exams. I SO do not have a good feeling about them :( It usually works out ok, but I still can’t help but worry.
Let’s focus on things that DO cheer me up:
- miu miu dresses that aren’t actually miu miu and hence very cheapies
- flower headbands that don’t go all the way around my head because real headbands like that make my hair look like a mushroom
- cloglike shoes that aren’t actually clogs because those are a bit too clunky and hard to walk in for me
I seem to get happy from things that aren’t really what they seem. So why doesn’t this spring that seems winter do anything for me? :(

  1. I am going to buy that dress!!!! :D

    Nice look with the white tights Annebeth, I was looking forward to seeing how you would accessorize the dress when we spoke about it the other day, Fab!! :D

    I am off to the US on the weekend (again!) so I know I will get at least a few warm days, I am so sick of the cold here in the London too. All I have to do is get back from the US on time.... :D

  2. let's all pray that the volcanoes keep it chillax this weekend :D haha

    and thanks! I love this dress to death, it has a cutesy, vintagy feel to it but because of the bold print and the simple shape it can be easily smartened up with a blazer. Or some frilly blouse underneath :D
