Baby Blues: The Midi Mac
The eternal autumnal quandary for the midi-lover - finding a hemline-appropriate cover-up to throw on top - has finally been solved for me by my discovery of Collectif's "Dietrich" trench. Having trawled through Brighton's piles of ancient furs and dirty Converse in an attempt to purchase some genuine vintage, I have to admit to breathing a sigh of relief upon coming across some lovely new, clean, animal-free gems in this heretofore-undiscovered vintage-repro store! At £47.50, reduced from £95, this was a bit of a splurge for me (albeit a great value one!), but I'm considering it my 29th (eek!) birthday present to myself...

So, although, I will no longer be able to provide emergency access to towers, I would like to think that I do now look better in a fedora, which is the main thing.

4 More Ways to Wear a Pastel Midi
Last month, I previewed my new pleated pastel midi in my Célfie selfies, but, as the last glimmers of summer fade, I thought I'd show you how else I've been styling it, along with my other Dotty P bargain beauty, in an attempt to sweeten the autumnal transition with a little taste of candy...
