I'll Take You Away From This Horrible Town

We took these photos by the lake in a little French town called Mansigné. I spotted this first-aid post and thought it would be the perfect location to take some outfit photos.

Jacket- Penneys/Primark

Rings- COS
Anklet- H&M


I spotted this dress in Zara last month and fell in love. I've always wanted a gingham dress but had never found the right one for me until now. Did I mention it has pockets? Well, it does. Find me a girl that doesn't love a dress with pockets and I'll call you a liar. I added the photo of the back of the dress to show off the cute bow and cut out detail despite the unsightly glimpse of my white bra (sorry). 

I love these simple rings I got from COS. I have been loving the brand recently, their stores are such a pleasure to shop in and I love how everything is merchandised. Their jewellery in particular has really impressed me, I love the clean lines and minimalism of everything and it isn't too expensive either which is always appreciated. 

I decided to try out anklets again having not worn one since I was a pre-teen. I got this in H&M in a pack with four toe rings which I have yet to sport, but plan on doing very soon. 

These Clarks ballet flats have been on my feet a lot since I got them a few months ago, they're cute and comfortable and go with almost anything. 

What have been your Summer wardrobe staples so far this year?

  1. Hi, Emma! The color and unique design of that first aid station certainly does provide an interesting backdrop for your outfit shots. As always you look fresh as a daisy, smart and lovely.

    In my post tomorrow (Friday) morning I will be nominating your blog for another award. If you don't have time to deal with it I won't be offended. I just wanted you to know how much I admire you and value your friendship. Whatever the case I hope you can swing by and have a look. Good night, dear friend!

  3. Cos is my new favourite store!! I've been moving away from prints lately to a simpler style and Cos have such good quality, interesting silhouettes and still a couple of lovely prints to tempt me :) This dress is gorgeous and the backdrop is just perfect - before I realised you were in France I hoped maybe it was some French quarter in Dublin I didn't know about :)
