Music I'm posting to..
Roo Panes, Land of the Living EP-favourite track; Silver Moon. Perfect for a bright chilly day.
This post comes to you from a rainy Saturday afternoon last week, in the Botanical Gardens-the umbrella was not merely a prop! I didn't think it was especially cold out until I tried to send a text in the cafe afterwards, and my hands had gone numb. The perils of the perennial blogger...
On this rain and wind buffeted Isle, there hasn't been a whole lot of choice recently other than to layer up and get as waterproof as possible. Bang on trend? Not so much. Certainly fun though, especially when I was wondering what to wear with my wellies (for a change from trousers) and happened upon this old dress with its pattern of tiny ducks. I was never sure what it was trying to do in a style sense, as it seems to be a cross between an apron, dress and play-suit-but without the shorts. I love how quirky and random it is though, and how it can look just as nice with thermal tights and wellies as it does with sandals; nicer, perhaps, as I don't rate it as much for summer now I've seen it all layered up.

| Tiny, tiny puddle-ducks! And a blue cardi; the nice little colour match was a happy accident. |
 |
| Not cold at this point. Still smiling. |
 |
| Actually this was a childish desire to see if the wind would lift me up...I confess... |
 |
| The wind was about to do away with my hat. |
 |
| Just chillin...literally |
 |
| All the real ducks have gone in for the winter! Where do they go though?! |
 |
| Lonely bench and lonely trees. |
