I had great plans this week to do some creative writing accompanied by scenic photos but life had other
plans and I found myself working heaps more than usual leaving very little time for much else.
The scenic surrounds became my back garden on a blustery evening and even though I am smiling here,
most of the time I was more concerned about the havoc the wind was wreaking on my roses.
My outfit was what I had worn to work that day , with the exception of my hat which is worn here as a
nod to the Spring Racing Carnival taking place around the country. I am wearing a cream coloured leather
jacket from New Zealand over a spotted top by Marlene Birger and a new pair of harem pants from Japanese label Moyuru, fast becoming an all time favourite.
Here is a close up of the details of the pants , they are black but look more navy blue here.
On another note we are planning to travel next year in the Northern Hemisphere Autumn to France,
(spending our time mostly in Paris), Spain and Portugal. It has been many years since we have travelled
overseas (1983 in fact) so much planning is the order of the day.

Jill, the jockey hat is a stand-out – I love the attitude it conveys! Great trousers too. xox-Pattihttp://notdeadyetstyle.com
Thank you Patti the jockey cap is an all time Summer favourite. Always a pleasure to join Visible Monday.
OMG–love that jockey hat! Don't be sad about staying put. I find the planning of trips is (almost) as fun as the trip itself and it sounds like you have a fantastic one to look forward to.
Thank you Marea , I know you are such a seasoned traveller with so much planning under your belt.I do agree I am enjoying the reading and planning.
Those really are great trousers. They'll be so comfy on the plane to FRANCE!
Thanks so much Connie, must remember to wear these next Fall.
I am rapidly becoming obsessed with Moyuru because of you! Such wonderful and flattering shapes that shouldn't work – but do! Always a treat to see what you're wearing.Aliciaspashionista.com

I love your hat. Yes, it's clear why your Moyuru pants are becoming a favourite. They are versatile and they look comfortable. And I love the anticipation of an upcoming trip. How exciting!
Thank you Melanie I fear the pants will be a feature this Summer. Looking forward to the trip , as you say the anticipation of an upcoming trip is half the fun.

Hi, Jill. What great pants! Ohhh, the trip planning will surely be exciting. I always wonder if a trip like that is something I should do just once in my life….
Thank you Lisa for your kind comments. I think you would enjoy a trip, I always found it so interesting.
Haha, not a hint of black on that photo, the pants look absolutely navy blue! The trip you are planning sounds great, all those countries! Once in a while one should go on such trips, it breaks the routine of life and fills you with new impressions and emotions.
I totally agree with you on travelling it opens your eyes so much to the world around us. Funny how in print colours can be so different.
