Firstly, thank you to everybody who left such thoughtful comments on my last post! So encouraging to receive such kind, informative and helpful feedback; it really is appreciated. 🙂
Shirtdress: Coco Boo Loves
Cardigan: Next
Cap: Warehouse
Boots and Socks: Topshop
Bag:Â Porteen Gear (Etsy)
Quiet Sunday car parks are designed specifically for blog photos right? Again my mum and I nipped into town to run a few errands, and for a little shopping experiment – more on that later. It would seem that I have no common sense whatsoever, as I believed that this sliver of a dress, loose cardigan and barely there fishnet tights would shield me from the wind. Oh how wrong I was! Although my neck was perfectly toasty, thanks to my handknit scarf (Haven by Kim Hargreaves). I am glad that I knit so many accessories as an 11 year old 😉
I can’t believe it’s taken me so long to show this camera bag on here! I’ve been using this Porteen Gear bag for a few years, and I still love the classy-but-practical leopard print design. These handmade leather/fabric camera bags have three compartments inside, and available from Etsy.
Fishnet tights outline legs in black, which I think is really flattering!
Counting down the days ’til half term now! Physics coursework was ticked off the list this week, so only textiles left now. With creative subjects I find it really difficult to just ‘get it done’; I’m such a perfectionist that I can spend hours doing a few sketches! Are you a speedy sketcher or do you deliberate over shades of blue pencil crayons like me?

3rd February 2014 at 7:12 pmI’m totally on the same page regarding creative work. It has to exactly perfect, which understandably takes forever.
Your shirtdress is pretty. You’re so lovely in it.

6th February 2014 at 4:53 pmYou mean *moi’s* ruffle scarf thing? Well, ha ha, I never really wrote a pattern for it, just wrote down what I did afterwards on this page http://jenjoycedesign.wordpress.com/my-patterns/ruffles-scarf-free-on-site-how-to-instructions/
However, I’ll happily gift you through Ravelry any pattern I have actually written out official. 😉 lol.
Designers often don’t really have times to knit other designers’ patterns, sad but true, isn’t it? :)xx
