The weather has been remarkably good the last few weeks here in the Netherlands. Usually September marks the start of a few months of wind and rain, and some more wind and rain, but the summer sun was there to stay this month (which is obviously fine by me :-P)

This gave me the opportunity to pull out some of my favorite summer dresses one last time. I bought this particular one from Hobbs' NW3 collection on eBay last year after seeing it (and loving it) on Pippa Middleton when she wore it to Wimbledon in 2011. It had some excess fabric on the back, so I had it altered a bit and now I love wearing it (proving the power of good tailoring). The 'Minx' wedges from Stuart Weitzman are truly a well-bought investment piece. They are very comfortable, despite their height, and they go with a lot of different styles and colours! 

Although I obviously prefer sun over rain, I do secretly wish for (a wind- and rainless) autumn. Cable knits, tartans, nordic prints, boots, tea and apple pie: here I come!
