Silhouette and Pearls

Dress: Little Mistress via House of Frasier ~ Satchel: Urban Outfitters ~ Rose Loafers: Russell & Bromley ~ Pearl Peter Pan Collar Necklace: Gift ~ Silhouette Pendant: Gift

My new favourite dress;
I think it's safe to say that I am well and truly in love with this dress. I was with my sister when I spotted it on the sale rail in House of Frasier but forgot to pick it up, it played on my mind for a while and when I went back a month later there it was, waiting for me! It's everything I look for in a dress, pretty print, cute colours and I love the neckline and detail on the sleeves. This is the outfit I wore to afternoon tea with Olivia yesterday, I had such a lovely time! She's got such a lovely personality, and we had so much to talk about! One of the best things about blogging is the fact that you find people with similar interests to you and make such good friends! Ah, the strange world of the net.
I've packed up all of my clothes and shoes for New York, and am all ready to go. The excitement is finally setting in, and I just want to board the plane already! We leave tomorrow morning and arrive in the late afternoon local time, so we have the evening to explore, I love New York at night with all the hustle and bustle of the yellow cabs against the bright lights of the city. 
I just wanted to say a little thank you to all of the comments on my last post. I realise that you should blog for yourself, it doesn't matter how many readers/comments etc you receive as long as you have fun in the process! The comments have spurred me on to continue with my blog, I do love my blog, and want to see it progress and just use it as an online diary, so thank you so much for supporting me and just generally being so nice! Thank you, your comments really do mean so much.
Sorry this is a bit of a short post, but packing prevails! I'll see you soon, hope you all have a lovely week!
Love, Charlestown xoxo.

  23. Hello Charlie, I just wanted to say that whilst I only discovered your blog a few days ago, it has to be one of my favourites.
    I simply adore your style of pretty dresses and I love your collection of Cath Kidston bags (I really want one but they're kinda expensive right now)
    But yeah, before I start to ramble, I was sad to hear that you felt that way about your blog, because you have super gorgeous clothes and accessories, and you're really pretty. I hope you continue to post because it would be a great shame otherwise.
    I did have a question: Do you think it's ok to re-wear items on your blog?
    Thank you reading this anyway,
    a new, loyal follower who is still plucking up the courage to even think about writing a blog.
