I haven’t been able to join in on the flowery maxi dress trend, I’m quite tall and I feel like a ship in full sail 🥴. I love fashion and clothes but sometimes you just have to stick to what suits 😄
This was funny! I’m totally with you, imagination going full Dynasty characters coming down the stairs to dine in finery… and buying random gorgeous stuff and then living in an old tee shirt and baggy shorts (I’m in Spain now so it’s hot). Our fantasy life and reality, I’m also tall with big shoulders so look like Schwarzenegger in drag in puff sleeves. Although I have succumbed to them, idiotically, then passed them on. I keep on telling myself NO MORE CLOTHES… and yet, alas… ! Xx
Haha, so true! Splashed out on a royal blue puffed sleeve blouse in approx 1982, in a effort to be stylish - more a new romantic influence than Lady Di - but still, instantly regretted it and never wore it.
Your cruise sounds fab! Never wanted to go on one but this might convert me!
I'd never wanted to either but honestly, it really was great fun. Lovely to be so looked after. The food was amazing and all of the stop offs (a different place every day) were great. I actually loved surrendering all responsibilities for a week! And yes - have bought so many items, never to be worn. Maddening! x
“I want to look like a grown up but not like Nicola Sturgeon fresh out of Hobbs.”
Some great lines in this 😂😂
Victoria’s Secret - yes I hate it when there are more staff than customers. You feel like you have to chat a little/express interest to break up the monotony of their day 😂
Funnily enough I bought myself a puff sleeve dress a couple of months ago. Think it just softens the bingo wings into fairy wings or something…..hm….😂

You're so right. Being a shortie I can't do billowing flowery maxis either. I think I might just stop buying clothes! x

Enjoy the rest of your cruise :)
Thanks Julie, glad you enjoyed. And it really was huge fun (and a press trip too so feel very lucky!).
The puffed sleeves on the Chelsea Flower Show presenters are RIDICULOUS! 😳
Or is it just me?
Peak puff, I'd say! x
They looked like they were all dressed up as different shrubs 🥴😄
