Ello all,
Just a quick outfit post. I know it's that day today, if you like celebrating it I wish you a good one, if you hate it we shall sweep the whole thing to one side and I bid you a happy Monday instead :)
Anyway... I wore this ensemble on Sunday. Set my hair all by myself and it came out alright for a change.... huzzahs ! I'm wearing my new Bluebird dress from Adelines Attic. I was supposed to be being a good girl this year when it comes to clothing purchases, but this little beauty was too good to miss! I also have a stunning Puttin' on the Ritz number to show off, which was a birthday purchase. But that deserves a seperate post too :)

| Dress: Adelines Attic - Shoes: Remix - Belt and bangle charity shop |
I added the belt as I finally managed to lose a few inches so things are a little baggy atm,which is great ,but also means I have a lot of alterations to do (and what if those inches creep back on again?!) I think a lovely thin belt in kelly green would look great with the dress... along with a green hat and some green suede 1940s sling backs... need to keep an eye out for a pair (which is tricky with my size 6 feet). Ooo yeah I forgot to show you the sleeves... the sleeves...

| Oooo, I stared at these so hard the first wear I got a crick in the neck! |
In the evening I went to see Chris play with harry Strutters Hot Rhythm Orchestra who were accompanying "The Jiving Lindy Hoppers" It was awesome. 1920s/30s jazz with some mean dancers performing to the songs. If you get the chance to see the show (normally called The Cotton Club Revue) I'd highly recommend it. Or just look out for the Lindy Hoppers who do shows across the UK, they are really fab.
The Theatre audotorium was named after Bruce Forsyth and there was a big plaque on the wall to let the audience know this, so I had to do a Brucey pose!

Sucha gorgeous dress! Love the shoes too
this post made my day! gorgeous!!!
Ooooh I love your song- so classy and you have such a pretty voice. I've had my uke for about 18 months now and just can't get the hang of it at all, so much for it being the easiest instrument to lean- although you make it look simple! Love the dress and hair too x
fabulous print on the dress
Love the dress! I think I have the same uke as you do but I love your choices of music better then the books I have, if the last two songs you posted are any indication. Do you have any recommendations on music?
Gorgeous dress, the Baroness always has such a fabulous selection doesn't she. Will listen to your warble when I get home, my office might not appreciate it as much as I do ;) x
I love love love that song and you sound beautiful singing it!
Very beautiful dress! And LOVE that song. "Mean to Me" is actually one of my favourite songs and I simply adore your version!
Seriously - get some gigs!!!!! You rock! (in a dainty, ukey way)

Oh so sweet and lovely thank you so much.
You have alovely voice and arn't you a clever gal being able to play the ukulele.
You looked stunning in the beautiful frock.
Thank you all so much for you lovely comments... I've been a bit tardy in replying, lots of things keep happening and the blog's suffered/.... but I just wanted to say how much I appreciate your support and encouraging kind words :) xx
