{Denim Daisies}

On May 26, I did wear my Denim Daisies from Escada. This was still before we started having all those tropical thunderstorms with heavy rain. The temperature was still pleasant too and our outlook on summer was great. So finally I get to show you these photos. How time flies... We're almost back at the very same climate as we had in May!
Dark blue denim with denim daisies.
What an idea for designing those!
The sleeveless top is all cotton too.
Always hard to make photos when the sun is that bright...
To the right you can see the 'old' bridge over the creek. Now it has the beautiful white balusters for a railing.
Shoes are also from Escada in denim with leather.
On the legs there are two daisies each, at the top of a slit

    You look simply WONDERFUL!!!!! I love the way you wear those denims, you look so fresh and beautiful! I love your style, and your glow! The denim daisies are definitely a lovely touch... they make the whole outfit pop!

    Thank you so much for your sweet and heartfelt words about Mammola. That is indeed so true... a sheltered life, and human care, make such a huge difference! You are such a brave and wonderful woman, dearest Mariette... I had no idea about your eyesight, you glow from within, and that's a blessing. Blessed to know you, Mariette :)

  15. Wow, you must love denim a lot:) A very cute outfit, Marriette! When I look at your last name(s) I wonder if it's German or Dutch? I am Dutch (my blogname is my artist name).
