Boots, bag and belt – vintage
Whenever we go to take photos, these tend to be Leanne’s most commonly used phrases: “you’re doing that awkward smile again”, “stop pulling stupid faces!”, “you keep closing your eyes!”. It’s true, I am the worst model ever. If only you could see some of the outtakes we get. (I have no intention of sharing!)
Don’t be fooled by how nice the weather looks in some of these pictures. It was absolutely freezing, and it started raining while we were out. I was wearing a coat but I took it off for the pictures because the proportions looked really odd.
Penny for your thoughts on this dress? I’m beginning to wonder if I’m too short to pull it off but maybe I just need to try it with different shoes…
Photos by Leanne and me.
P.S. The flowers were salvaged from a bin, not a grave!
That dress is beautiful on you, I wouldn't change anything about it. Gosh, considering the weather here today you must have been absolutely freezing! It has been so bitter in london recently.
That last photo is gorgeous, but also really sad.
Awesome photos! It has such an atmosphere!
And the outfit fits you a heaven ♥
I think the dress looks lovely. And that last photo, beautiful.
I was absolutely FREEZING! my hands where blue from the cold. And you make me sound mean, I am thinking I might just steel the out-take photos and post them on flickr for everyone to see, brighten everyones day ;) xxx

It looks just wonderful as it is! The outfit looks beautiful, love those boots!
xxxxxxx
Leanne: Ha ha, you're not mean, I need to be told these things! Also, I can't even begin to imagine why you'd want those monstrosities tarnishing your beautiful Flickr page.
U know charming ur way out won't help, especially when its not true ;> xxx
nononono, keep the dress! it looks lovely (: if you wore it with heels, i reckon you could even go out in it (unless you're anything like me, of course, then you'd end up spilling red bull down it. i.e. not a good idea)

Hannah, this dress looks perfect on you. You make me want to have long hair again! I love longer hemlines for this fall or in general. I don't really wear skirts/dresses that hit me below the knee nowadays. I bet it's cold in Scotland, eeeek. Stay warm! I adore these photos. Tell Leanne she captures you beautifully! :)
The dress is really lovely on you, definitely keep it. And with those shoes too.
You've reminded me I need to go for my annual autumn walk on Hampstead Heath. Might do that this weekend.

That dress is so incredibly pretty as are these photos!
Beautiful photoshoot, you look lovely xoxo
You look gorgeous! And I know what you mean- my sister always tells me I'm doing "the awkward smile" when she takes my photos. I'm a terrible model. (:
Gorgeous photos! I love specially the last one.
Have a nice week.
I love this! Awesome location and lovely outfit. It looks great! I have some boots similar to those but they're too small for me. :/

If only fall wasn't so cold! We are going into summer now, but I would love autumn even more than I already do if it wasn't so bone chilling sometimes!
I think the longer length dress looks perfect on you especially with those boots!
You pull it of so effortlessly
Beautiful photos!

The dress is so lovely, simple but with just enough detail to make it really special, and you pull it off beautifully :)
the dress looks lovely.you're definitely not too short!!
below the knee dresses are my favourite at the moment

Love your bag and boots. The dress looks gorgeous on you.
The last photo is so beautiful.
Velvet: Actually, this is kind of unpleasant but we found them in a bin! They were on top and there wasn't much else in there so we rescued them and decided to include them in a couple of photos.
both the dress and you look beautiful. the length totally works.
dreamboat!
Beautiful photos! Those flowers are gorgeous (even if they were salvaged from a bin). I think the dress looks wonderful on you, and I think those shoes complement the style very well.
perfect autumnal colours.
the flower shot at the bottom is my favourite. very melancholy.
Love love looove that dress. So much.
AND YES I AM SO EXCITED FOR HARRY I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO.
You are so charming and beautiful an you have such a simplistic and stunning sense of style!
I love everything in this post!

Haha, I always get comments like that when my boyfriend takes my photos! He also says things like "What are you doing with your face?" haha, they always kinda relax me and make me giggle.
I love this outfit. Your accessories are great!

I like that dress, it's so simple and pretty!

you look very, very beautiful. an inspiration, always. x
I think i looks great! Honestly, I actually think that is a really lovely length on you. Maybe it's something you could experiment with some more? I'm sure the longer dresses would be cosier over winter!
at least the top half of the dress is pretty. maybe you can change it into a shirt?
i wouldnt change a thing about that dress, either!
I think its a good length! I'm learning to enjoy my shortness in longer hems!
Shy
don´t change the dress! i think it´s amazing the way you wear it . i never dared to go with black tights to a white skirt but now i might give it a try…
I think the dress looks wonderful! The length is really unique, I think you should keep it as is.

Pointy little witchy shoes would make your legs look longer but the boots are awesome and the dress looks great!
You pull it off just fine :) Very elegant length!
I am a terrible model! My brother always complains about it when he takes my photos.

I think you look really pretty in the dress. Your hair always looks amazing.
Gorgeous photos :)
That dress is beautiful, it really suits you. And those boots are amazing. I'm jealous, I've been searching for some similar for a while xx
i think the dress looks lovely on you, especially with those boots.
I love the length and the shape of it! You look so lovely and natural in it.
Maybe it's a bit too long for my taste, i'd shorten it a bit, but that's just me :) you look great indeed
That dress is lovely! Love it with the boots & belt. Beautiful pics!
where is this location? its beautiful. the dress looks amazing on you.
beautiful photos, you look so pretty!
Too short to pull it off? My darling, it looks great on you!
PSH! Before I even read about your doubt of the dress, I thought to myself, "I wish I had a dress just like that!" It is absolutely gorgeous on you and the length is perfect. The boots are a great match with it too. But hey, if you still can't decide, I'll take the dress! :)
Looking stunning as usual, doll.
no problems with the length for me !!
