Hello! Did you have a nice weekend? Mine was spent adoring my little boy. We went to the park and my favourite moment was when he spotted the swings in the distance. He did this little hop/skip/jump in excitement. I remember than excitement.
The weather is warming up and I thought it would be nice to have a week of spring dress-ups. I'm thinking of devoting a week to fashion at the start of each season. It reminds me what I have in my wardrobe and what I might need to invest in. I've worn this skirt before here and still very much like it.
I can't recall showing you the front of my house before. When I bought the house the timber was white, the gutters a red brown colour and I don't think the house had been painted for forever.
The timber is now painted in Dulux Self Destruct, all the trims are in white and a new door fitted which I painted in Dulux Dewpoint (1/2 strength). The door bell and awning are original.
I'm still thinking about that pink front door. One day...
I love your skirt - perfect spring outfit! Glad you had a good weekend! x
ReplyDeleteWhat a great look and I simply adore your polka dot skirt!
ReplyDeleteLiesl :)
P.S. Great front door too and think it would look lovely in pink one day too! ;)

ReplyDeleteI think a week of outfits at the start of each season sound like a great post idea! I've always admired that gorgeous front door of yours in that stunning shade. Hope your week is lovely x
ReplyDeleteyou look SO happy in this pic, more please!
ReplyDeletealso, I think you should go the pink door...like, ASAP
Am in current 'heated discussions' with my boyfriend about house colours - I want very similar to this, he agrees with the main colour (perhaps a bit darker than this which I am willing to compromise on) but he wants a darker trim! Nooooo! White trim I say - WHITE TRIM!!! :(
ReplyDeleteyour outfit looks gorgeous...and that front entrance i LOVE XX
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely outfit and front porch! I love the colours you've repainted in.
ReplyDeleteWe had a great day at the park for Jacq's 2nd birthday...and its wonderful how the simple things bring them so much joy.
ReplyDeleteHoney..I say..paint that door pink..no time like the present....I looked up once what the colour pink denoted about a person ( when I was going through a major pink zone) and kind of still am...its funny how we tend to gravitate towards different colours at certain stages through our lives.
Pink: This color embodies the gentler qualities of Red, symbolising love and affection without passion. Women who prefer Pink tend to be maternal. Pink desires protection, special treatment and a sheltered life. Pink people require affection and like to feel loved and secure, perhaps wanting to appear delicate and fragile. Pink people tend to be charming and gentle, if a trifle indefinite.
Well...you certainly are charming and gentle...as is your little man ; ) x
that skirt is beautiful & it looks like you have a very lovely home
