It’s hard to believe it’s September already! This Summer has absolutely flown by and tomorrow Isobel starts high school. We’ve spent the morning doing a trial bus run, although I think we’ll drive for the first couple of weeks. We took advantage of the nice weather by going for lunch afterwards, which was lovely apart from the persistent wasps!
I sometimes find it difficult to know what to wear at this time of year because the temperature can fluctuate a lot; it can be hot in the sun but quite cool in the shade. This lemon print midi dress is loose and lightweight, and provides plenty of coverage, making it perfect for late Summer and early Autumn. If I need an extra layer I’ll add a denim jacket and maybe swap the sandals for white trainers.
To emphasis the lemon print I chose a fun lemon bag from Skinny Dip; their designs are really quirky and always make good conversation-starters! I also have peach, pineapple, coconut and watermelon bags…well with my name I’m bound to like fruit! I mentioned in a previous post where I wore some cute cherry earrings that I’d also bought some pearl hoops featuring beaded lemons. My plan was to wear those with this dress…and then I spotted these lemon slice earrings in H&M and I had to buy those too! They seemed a better match for the dress and bag, so I’ll save the others for another outfit.

Oh yes, it would absolutely look divine with a jean jacket!! LOving this cute purse so much too! Great look:)
Lovely look Emma – I am crazy about fruit prints! That bag is such fun.
I love the lemon theme so much!! Your accessories are too cute, especially your earrings. And the rest of your fruity bag collection sounds awesome, too. That’d be a fun blog post idea – just featuring all your fruit bags! Anyway, hope you’re having a great day. 🙂

Thanks Suzy!
That is a really pretty fresh dress. I hope the weather warms up and we can get back into summer outfits.
Thanks Anna! Yes I’d like a bit more warm weather before Autumn sets in properly!
I don’t have any fruit print in my wardrobe which is a shame as it’s such a cute trend! This dress is beautiful on you and you have accessorised it so well! 🙂
Hope that you are having a lovely weekend 🙂
Thank you Mica! There’s quite a lot of lemon print around at the moment – H&M have a couple of dresses as well as a skirt and top xx
Hi Emma!
I go crazy over lemon prints! I wanted this very dress from HM but they never had my size avaiable. It looks wonderful and so fresh! I have the print in a cami.
That bag is just precious too! I saw a Kate Spade lemon bag I wanted but it was too much $$$ .
Have a great weekend!
