May has been a complete washout in the weather department so far but trust the very last week to have glorious sunshine. It's perfect timing really because I'm been dying to be able to wear my new dress and sandals but it's just been too cold!
I mentioned in my A Nautical Nod post that after discovering Closet London, I fell in love with the Pale Blue Off the Shoulder Midi Dress. It's perfect for my growing bump and the light material was great for what I was hoping to be a warm summer. There's still time for the sun to show summer! I wore this for a relaxed Sunday brunch with friends paired with my ever faithful Birkenstocks.
I first bought Birkenstocks when I lived in Spain and right before they came back into fashion I gave them to a charity shop and have regretted that decision ever since. As I've been growing my flat shoe wardrobe in time for my ever-expanding bump and swollen feet, the very first pair on the list was a new pair of Birkenstocks. A lot of you will hate 'em but they're so comfy, give them a chance.
I accessorised with some pretty silver pieces from Buckley London. It's not often I wear jewellery and when I do, I like it to be dainty so The Shoreditch Collection is right up my street. I also had my trusty Zara bag which I have used non-stop since I bought it, along with my Vivienne Westwood Balmoral purse in navy leather. Whenever I use designer purses I like them to be subtle and this one is perfect as the small gold globe logo sits small but centre stage. It also has lots of pockets inside which is handy for my store points cards. Let's hope the sun keeps shining because I have so many pretty dresses to wear this summer.
I'm wearing:
Vivienne Westwood Balmoral Zip Purse £130.00

I love Birkenstocks on other people but as I have size 9 feet they look like big flippers on me so I can't wear them! haha Love this look on you and the handbag is gorgeous x
