The Phone Case

I know there are some people out there who change their phone cases as often as they change their shirts.  I, however, have had the same phone case since May 2011.  A hot pink Speck case, it did the job.  My phone felt safe encased in it. 

Recently, the little rubbery bits started to give way in a big way.  The bottom part would detach readily, and I started playing with it the way some people click pens.  Guess that might have been annoying...  Anyway, I decided a new case was in order.  I'd seen some pretty cases in Mombasa so headed in there.  This was the only one that appealed to me though. 

Removing the old case, I felt justified in this new purchase - the whole lower section is only just hanging on.  After nearly 2 years of the hot pink safety of Speck, this new one feels rather insubstantial.  I am yet to drop the phone though to really test its protective properties.  In the meantime, I'm getting used to this new yellow thing hanging around.  I do like the spots!

Outfit #3

 I love these shoes.  I had them several months (from a swap day) before  I actually wore them.  Once I'd tried them out I was smitten.  They're cotton so they breathe, not so precious that I can't wear them in the rain, a bit of height.  Plus they come in my favourite colour - black!  I was trying to last longer before wearing black, but when something is so good, why resist?

This dress is really nice to wear.  It's a fake wrap dress, jersey material, with a tie at the back.  The first outing was for a gig.  After that, I always wear a singlet underneath.  Every time I moved I had to hold onto the front to save it from revealing everything.  Maybe I need to move more when I'm trying on clothes.

Dress: Hot Options.  Singlet (only visible close up): Ambra (bamboo).  Shoes: no label, but made in Spain (swap). Earrings: made by me (no photo - but they're like striped licorice).
