Wardrobe Wednesday - Fragrance


WELCOME everyone to my first Wardrobe Wednesday (WW) link-up!  To those that have linked in or followed WW before you may recognise some things will stay the same and some things will change.  One feature I love from when Miriam hosted is the weekly theme - something that each week you can choose to focus on showing off (or not).

As I'm participating in Fox in Flats month of daily style dares today's theme is 'fragrance'.  My favourite perfume is Coco Chanel, Mademoiselle but as you can't smell that via a post I decided to be more liberal in my interpretation!


 
 
What I wore: Dotti striped cardigan, Warehouse red jeggings (UK), Jacqui E black vest, red flower (unknown), Zalando black slingback wedges.

One of the new WW features is that each week I'll pick one of you beautiful ladies from the previous week to feature.  It may be my favourite, or perhaps the most clicked on (if I can work out how to figure that out!) but it's a great chance to put the spotlight on new and exciting blogs that we might not have seen before.

Over the years, but especially after having two boys, I've frequently felt out of touch with fashions and left behind.  I started this blog (and hosting WW) in the hopes of helping some of the busy people out there like me who might be looking for inspiration, but living real lives. For some being in front of the camera is comfortable and for some it can be very scary - but I promise for those that take the leap and give this a try, you'll find a supportive audience just waiting to encourage your efforts.

I'm even linking us up with WIWW (Transatlantic Blonde), Whatever Whenever (Rolled Up Pretty), What I Wore (Pleated Poppy), Marionberry's Trend of the Month, CopyCat Closet (Ma Nouvelle Mode) and Style Sessions (Style Elixir)!

How to play?
  1. Please link to a specific blog post not just your general blog.
  2. Link to a post about clothes - that's what we're here for.
  3. Please add a link back here so other people can come over and see people's clothing posts too - the old fashioned way or grab a button below.
  4. Be encouraging and visit people - leave a comment now and again too; everyone loves to get encouragement!
Here's the WW button (note: same button but new link); just copy and paste away!

  9. How I would love to be in that garden with you. I can "smell" the floral from here. Sadly we won't have any summer here for at least another 2 months.

    I love the black white and red theme.

    bisous
