Dressing Up In... Romantic Jewels and Flowers

London was gorgeous and sunny, but with that nostalgic feel of the end of Summer in the air. So with the light flowers of Summer in mind, along with the darker colours and jewel tones of Autumn, and after acquiring for myself a stunning birdcage necklace in Camden the day before, I decided to go for a romantic but casual look.

The ring is my Qpot darling, it really looks good enough to eat and I love to wear it, despite it being huge and heavy. It fits well with the theme and sweet feel of Jewel Tree Bouquet though I feel. The shoes are from Hong Kong, bought about 6 years ago and not worn much since then! It was a good time to dust them off and bring back some classic Vivienne Rocking Horse style to add a bit more Lolita to the casualness of the outfit.

A friend was visiting me in the UK at this time, and we passed through St James' Park on our way to Buckingham Palace. The white buildings in the background of the photos are the Horse Guards Parade, but they looked stunning and more like a French chateau or a magical citadel from the blue bridge in the Park than the Parade grounds.


 London truly is an world of endless surprises, of places where, when you take a look from another side, a new beauty to that is revealed. This view is a wonderful testament to that.
