Wanderings

I'm now giving some thought to my cousin's wedding in August and my outfit for the occasion.  (I know, random, but let's face, I have time to let my mind wander.)

I actually bought a dress, (which so far, I feel pretty confident that I'll still wear,) about 18 months before my cousin even got engaged.  I just knew an engagement would be on the cards sooner or later, and I loved this dress as soon as I saw it, it was pretty, classic, "weddingy" and in the sale, too good an opportunity to leave on the rail... and I love it.

Unless something else catches my eye, this is the one.  It's blue, (two shades,) sleeveless, high necked, floaty, voluminous, below the knee in length and best of all... it has pockets, which are concealed.  I have no idea why I love this aspect, I just think it's a magical bonus.

I have nude, patent leather, (very comfortable,) 5" slingbacks which I will probably wear.  (They probably sound like stripper shoes but trust me, they're very elegant.)  So my attention has turned to hat and hair.  It costs a fortune to have your hair "put up" here, but it's a must, it's August so it'll be hot and my frizzy hair has no choice but to be wrangled into something tidy and classic.

I won't be wearing a hat but I'm thinking flower, headband, some kind of fascinator.  What do you think?

I've drawn a picture... we'll see if I can upload it shall we? 

Can I just tell you that Mr James, was my favourite teacher and I only got an "A" in art, because of him, he was however, the first to acknowledge that I cannot draw.  RIP Mr James, such a wonderful teacher.

The Dress... kind of, use your imagination.
