Whats up readers? This post is currently being featured on 'Fancy fine'. It also includes a photo of me and my new boyfriend for all you nosey buggers who wanted me to show off my newest 'accessory'. Haha!
When lovely Ashely asked us to blog with the theme of 'Fancy fine' we had to put our thinking caps on. We're so grateful for what we have but we live in the rather humble surroundings of East London so 'fancy' is not really a word that describes us contrary to popular belief!

Wow I cannot decide which outfit I love more, all of you look so absolutely charming and lovely and I adore the flowers! Ahh, so pretty!
ReplyDeleteLove ALL those outfits and those flowers. Flowers and cider, what a winner!
ReplyDeletedear bright young twins - i love your blog so very much. whenever i see your posts pop up in my reader, i am so happy! your exceptional style and way of living sets you apart even from the endless stream of fashion bloggers. Because you are more than just "fashion"! You ooze other eras, you are simply not of this time. Plus, as a platinum-haired girl myself, I am terribly envious and inspired by Harriet's mane!
ReplyDeleteI recently started up my own blog in my own corner of the internet, I would be thrilled if you read and enjoyed it as much as I do yours. Cheers, and happy birthday Aimee! I think i would fill a bath tub with all the flowers and roll around in them, just for luxurious kicks.

ReplyDeleteThis post reminds me of the opening scene to My Fair Lady! The flowers,the lace, and the fair ladies: )
ReplyDeleteYour style is impeccable.
your boyfriend reminds me of Cillian Murphy (which is a VERY good thing) happy late birthday!
ReplyDeleteHi Harriet, would you mind if I did a portrait of you for school? Or at least inspired by you/your monochromatic look. I love it very much!
ReplyDeleteNot at all darling! We'd love to see it xx
DeleteYou're vapid and I hate you.
