Stunning simplicity

"beautiful Scandinavian dresses for girls"

Everywhere you turn, it’s all about Christmas.  So today I wanted to take a break from all the festive chatter and share these gorgeous dresses for girls.  Clean, understated pieces that can be worn for any occasion.  From one of my favourite high street stores, these dresses could not be simpler or more stunning.  Anya has last years version of the orange and pink block dress (the skirt part was black last year) and whenever she wears it the compliments don’t stop coming.  This year I’ve got my eye on the bright blue bubble dress although the black dress with the pink collar is so striking in it’s simplicity.  Styles like this really speak to me because I’m not a fan of too much fuss and embellishment but more importantly I think dresses like this really allow the child wearing them to shine rather than detracting from the child.  What do you think?  Too simple or simply stunning?

"informal wedding dinner style"

We’ve got a family wedding to go to soon in Kathmandu, Nepal and we’re super excited.  I love weddings and it’s been a while since I’ve been to one.  We’re all booked and the only thing left to decide is what we’re all going to wear.  Indian/Nepalese weddings tend to go on for a week with function after function so it’s not just one outfit you need, but several.  Luckily this wedding is a bit shorter with only three events, two of which are formal so both Anya and I plan to go in Indian national dress for the formal celebrations – I’ll wear a sari, she’ll wear a kids lehenga.  We’ve already got the Indian outfits so all that’s left to plan is the look for the very informal pre-wedding dinner bearing in mind that it’s going to be hot too.

Probably the easiest thing would be to find myself a dress but I’m not much of a dress person.  I prefer trousers or skirts.  With that in mind, I’ve been thinking about looks for Anya and me.  These are the 3 favourite looks I’ve narrowed it down to for the informal pre-wedding dinner party.  Which look do you like best?
