Blushed to My Roots

 Alexander McQueen

It happened! I saw my first pink coat in real life today. Despite all the exclamations of the fashion editors (and me) the pink coat has not been the unavoidable trend that I feared it might be. I thought that every second person would be flouncing in fuchsia or romping in rose and that it would be such an obvious trend it would be somewhat embarrasing to be one of the herd.

I rather question my reserve now, because the lady I saw looked unspeakably elegant.

To make up for it here are some of my favourite pink items, and I will endeavour now to bring a flush to my winter wardrobe.

We're All Going on a Summer Holliday

I adore Mimi Holliday. They are one of the few lingerie brands that make bras to fit my sizeable rack. Plus they are super pretty. And do you know what I love more than a bra that doesn't endow me with the ever charming "four-boob"? A bra that is very brightly coloured.

I know that a nude coloured bra might be practical, but dear lord is it boring. Give me some neon undercrackers over sensible knickers any day of the week. Love, love, love them!

The lovely Miss Keddie is getting married in six months. I am inordinately excited about the nuptials. Mostly because I know that she is going to rock a serious dress. The woman owns Lanvin, for goodness sake, it is going to be a sight to behold, I am quite sure.

 

So I think it is only reasonable that I have started to fantasise about what I am going to wear. I want it to be amazing. And I want it to be colourful.

 

Here are some of my fantasy dresses so far.
