Red H&M dress with pink, Tricia Guild style!

One of the dresses I bought lately reminded me of the red colours used by the designer Tricia Guild. I have several of her books, including Pattern where I got this photo from:





I would love to fill my home with her silk fabrics, but I can't afford to. Instead I've come up with this outfit that has a bit of the same feeling (the scarf is silk):





And a close up of the details:




I wore it to a lunch party at our good friends house yesterday. It matched the sunny day perfectly!


On Wednesday I went to Copenhagen again, to have a haircut. I wasn't very inspired as my feet were killing me, so I ended up with a dress that I've worn quite a few times lately. It's easy to remix with different cardigans and jeggings (that are just warm enough for the outdoor temperature these days).




If you haven't seen the orange bangles before, here's a nice shot...




Last photo is from this morning. The weather was depressingly wet and windy, with temperatures just above freezing. So, back to thick sweaters and heavy boots.





The scarf is old, from around the last time pastels were the current trend. I have a matching silk dress that I'm hoping to use for the pastel colour challenge on Everybody Everywear, on April 10th.

Have a great weekend everyone - see you again on Visible Monday!
