What I Wore: Blustery walk on Dunstable Downs

I am wearing
H&M leather skirt // Re-worked Vintage tux shirt // Kate & Aud necklace 
Vintage faux fur coat // Vintage velvet turban // Necktie made by myself
Underground creepers // Matalan bird print scarf

We spent our Christmas in Mr D's hometown, Dunstable, a quiet market town in Bedforshire. It's been hit quite badly by the recession and there are closed down shops up and down the high street. You can almost imagine tumble weed rolling down the high street, like in an old Western, it's that quiet. Dunstable may have lost its trade but it still has one little gem. 

One sunny but blustery morning, after having several days of rain, Mr D Snr, Molly, myself and a four legged friend went for a walk over Dunstable Downs, part of the Chilterns which covers an area of 322 square miles stretching from Bedfordshire to Oxfordshire. Husband grew up playing in these hills and it was lovely to see Molly enjoying them too! The views are breathtaking up there and it was a perfect opportunity to take some photos of one of the new outfits I got for Christmas. I have wanted a new leather skirt for a while and was really excited to receive this pastel pink leather skirt from H&M. My scarf and necklace were also Christmas gifts and all went perfectly with a white tux shirt I had re-worked.  

I've a feeling this skirt will be making an appearance quite a lot in 2013. I was also given a pastel blue cat print shirt from River Island for Christmas which will go perfectly with this skirt (can be seen pictured in my last post). I haven't had a chance to wear it yet but as soon as I have an opportunity I will take photos. 

Ta ta!
