Yesterday was Style imitating art with the beautiful Salazar of 14 shades of grey and we had another cracking piece of artwork to educate me:
![]()
Oh how many possibilities there were for this wonderful painting! It's Henry Rousseau’s “Woman Walking In An Exotic Forest“,
Had I had time to think about this one, there was LOADS I could have attempted- hat, white frilly dress, florals, leafy shades.
However, in the end, it came down to a scrambled last minute- "Oh look, what I am wearing works -sort of!"
![Flower trouser power]()
The top and cardie are thrifted and the trousers are Primark from a couple of years ago as is the headband. Cat shoes, embroidered by moi!
I have to say, I don't think my love of big trousers over tight ones will ever abate. Especially nice floaty summer ones! I loook over my trousers past and present and the only ones that have ever stood the test of time are the big ones! Right from teenage years of wearing 1970's vintage flares that someone gave me (wish I still had them! Too small though!). What about you? How do you feel about trousers?
I had a teaching observation today from my headmistress. It apparently went really well according to a quick passing comment from her but I guess it's hard to view your own work objectively! In my head, all I see is the bad bits- the children who couldn't make a minim last for 2 beats but ran it into 1 beats!!!
Ah well!
Hope all is well with you!xxx
