The kids don't stand a chance

Cape - Uniqlo, Trousers - H&M, Bag - H! By Henry Holland





Welcome to Victoria! I spent many Sundays here between the ages of 7-12 at the cathedral, the (now closed) bookshop and House of Fraser, which I pinpoint as the root of my shopping addiction.

Anyway, I'm in trousers! It felt so strange wearing them and also strange to see myself in them since I'm almost always in skirts. I saw these in the sales at H&M and thought I should get them to change things up a bit. I have to say I like them a lot more than I thought I would, although I forget that most trousers tend to be too long for my short legs. I wore heels to combat this but they aren't shown in the photo since my lovely mum was my photographer and she got kind of tired with my fussy directions, so this had to do.

  8. Ah so jealous would have loved to have grown up in London. Love the pants. I hear about fussy photographers. I always ask my friends and yes they get impatient. That is why I do not have a lot of posing pix on my blog. You really have to work with a semi professional if you can find one.

    1. Haha I guess it's pretty awesome growing up here :) but I still get jealous of people living in other parts of the world!
      Yeah I never want to bother people and ask them to take my photos so I usually make do with a tripod, it would be nice to have a semi professional photographer!
      Thank you for your comment :)
