This past week I have been dreaming of a black and white/neutral travelling palette. Last obstacle I wish to experience before heading out the hotel door for a days sight seeing, fun and games is the dilemma of being left with a riff raff of miss matched apparel and bellowing I have nothing to wear!
So..I am gathering a few pieces in my mental check list and allowing myself to feel excited about a special holiday on the near horizon. Alas I can only tease and not divulge the destination because this decision is still in the 'omg pinch me now we are actually planning to do this' phase and there's countless dots to join before I scream my news over the Internet.
A go anywhere jacket, black ballet slippers, black backpack and tiny purse for the bare essentials while partaking of the glorious sights. And because I stick purely to a neutral theme I swish up an outfit with a scarf such as this pretty Italian leopard print.
So once again our luggage will be hauled out and put into service. Believe me I am bursting to share...
all in good time.
A big thank you to the team at The Decorating Forum for featuring my blog this week...it's been fun.

How exciting for you Annie:). There is just one other essential item you need to pack - an Ipad so you can keep in touch with us and share your journey:)
ReplyDeleteThe iPad will be coming along and I have installed Blogsy app so will do my best and will no doubt be Instagramming to my hearts content.
DeleteYes, as Julie-Ann says, please share the journey (not always easy though !). And I looove that jacket ; who is it by ? Best wishes for your preparations !xx
ReplyDeleteThanks SB, the jacket is from Target so not an expensive garment. Do you even have Target in Paris? Yes blogging while away can be problematic.
DeleteI hear so much about Target, I am so jealous that we don't have in France ...X
DeleteLove your colour scheme, keeping it simple always works. So interested to discover where you're whizzing off to!
ReplyDeleteSimple is always best. I know I'm feeling really mean by not divulging but we need to get more arrangements organized first.
DeleteI am a neutral fan/advocate so I think these pieces all look great. Will be excited to learn of where the trip will be to and when. Mxx
ReplyDeleteHmmm I like a good mystery...destination that is. I am thinking from the stripes maybe Paris ? Non...oh la la Maybe New York following the trail blazing AM trip...lets face it we all can't wait to get there after seeing all her amazing photos. I would say though anywhere that's not the Morningside Woolworthes would be exciting for me ha xxxx
ReplyDeleteI'm taking a guess as to where it is. Do I win a prize if I'm right?
