The Staple Sundress

The staple sundress. Maybe you found it at a street stall, or a French supermarket, or maybe it was your sister's when she was your age. It's easy to wear, it's comfortable. It's never quite like what you see on the high street, and that's what makes it special.








Bringing Back the Basket

I hinted on my twitter earlier this month that August would mark some changes to this blog. The major one is now complete - Lexi Likes has a brand new design. I'm very pleased with it and I'm hoping it will reflect the new breed of content I'm starting to produce. Thank you for all of your feedback thus far, I'm so happy you like it too. Here's to a new chapter!

Today I'm sharing another Summer outfit shot in Kas, Turkey. Kas has a wonderful bohemian, chill vibe. It's not a town for dressing up, and I've loved being able to throw on a sundress and some flip-flops every night. Although I'm excited about dressing for Autumn, I am definitely going to miss the ease of Summer evenings.

No, you are not seeing double. No, I am not secretly a twin. Yes, this is Edie from my last post. You see, Edie is sort of like my long lost sister. We have seen each other pretty much every Summer since birth. In this circumstance, Edie came with me and my family to Mallorca for part of our time here. We are alike in so many ways but are also opposites in many too. I eat the chocolate ice cream, she eats the vanilla. I listen to punk music, she listens to folk. I live in London, she lives in France. But we've always liked dressing the same or similar (a lot of the time it's unintentional). In this case, Edie found these wonderful dresses in a little boutique in an old town here. It's not something I would normally pick out, but I like it. We decided to make use of the symmetrical garden and our new matching dresses.

Our rings with the matching stones we designed ourselves in a shop here. Mine has cool symbols around it (good witchy vibes) and Edie chose this pretty sunflower design.



We were even reading the same book, and decided to press identical flowers on identical pages (I know, so cute and innocent). I've only just realised the book is about two people meeting with the same name. Ah the irony.


I have also started to contributing to CultNoise mag and you can read my first article HERE.
