Has March ended already? Gosh, it's been a busy month for me! I began my month by sharing a trip I took to Scarborough (here), and two easy peasy skirt tutorials (here and here.) Most of the beginning of the March was occupied

Lately I've been drawn to triangle bras on pinterest, like this one. I don't actually wear bras day-to-day, but they're fun to have for special occasions! Underwear is so expensive, especially for the small amount of fabric that you buy, so I decided to DIY my own triangle bra. Joe took these photos for me when I was in Southampton last week, and we had so much fun!
You will need: 1/4 metre of cotton

It's a lovely space, but what caught my eye the most was the extremely grand castle-like houses that overlook the gardens. Apparently they were built as mansions

The lovely Laila saw this dress in the charity shop she works in and thought of me. I'm so glad she did because I love elephants, and I love everything embroidered! It is a little big for me, so I made it backless with the aim of making it looking purposefully oversized. It's so soft and flowy, and I'm looking forward to taking it to Italy with me next week! Oh, and what do you think of my shoes? Obviously
