Not quite autumn, not quite winter here in Melbourne I’ve found that I’m doing what Melburnian’s do best and that’s layering.When I first moved to Sydney I found it hard to get used to just wearing a t-shirt all day, or just a sweater. What was this crazy concept where the weather stayed the same all day?
I dressed for all four seasons, every day in Melbourne thank you very much.
Anyhow, it gives me pleasure to pull items like this vintage, Irish linen, a-line coat out of the wardrobe that has sat there quite lonely all summer.
The coat was given to me by one of my aunties who had it for years but never wore it. I wasn’t sure at first whether I would myself, but now I find that I wear it with everything. Well, this week that is.
In other Lady Melbourne news my new blog is just about ready to launch and later on in the week when you visit you’ll no doubt see a new look.
Don’t fear if you visit and can’t see anything, there may be minor transmission interruption while it all swaps over but come Friday I’ll be at my new home.
I hope you like it.
