Visible Monday

A necklace of some description is always my favourite accessary. This one, a cast of Ariadne, made by Himself, is light and easy to wear. The weather is cold, so I'm layering a a comfortable pin-striped linen dress from Toast over a cotton t-shirt.
The dress has generous pockets, which I always appreciate - but, my, how that linen creases! Cropped grey leggings underneath and now that I'm tucked in for the evening I've swapped my footwear for some grey suede ballet flats.

    1. Himself made the cast head and the silver work was produced in the old silversmith area of Birmingham. You can read about the casts on my objects blog, they are number 83.

  5. Lovely photos of you, lovely outfit and such a pretty necklace. I thank you so much for your comment on our anniversary post. I had to smile at your necklace too as Gregg and I met on his ship (he was on an exchange tour with the Royal Navy at the time). His ship? HMS Ariadne :)
