Dress - House of Fraser Oasis Waikiki Dress c/o
Crop top - Topshop
Sandals - Office Garland Block Heels
Choker - DIY
I have six or seven versions of this short-sleeved crop top to my name thanks to a love of activewear-layering! Though even with these many colours of the rainbow on hand, I found myself drawn to the black version as a way of contrasting with the fun, tropical print of the Waikiki midi dress. It also proves to be a great way of continuing the accessories' colour scheme throughout the outfit; speaking of which, this black suede cord choker was so easy to make - that is to say, it hasn't fallen apart so far!
Psst! On my nails: Maybelline's SuperStay Second Skin (875).
So yeah, I'm 100% feeling the heat, but with my time here in the South of France coming to an end, I'm also feeling the heat, you know? I'm not at all ready to kiss goodbye to the mornings loaded with pains au chocolat, or evenings spent on my balcony staring at the moonlit sea. I'm making sure to soak up every single moment - and at least I get to bring both memories and my holiday wardrobe home with me!
With love,
Gabrielle x
Definitely soak up every minute while you're there, it sounds like you're having an amazing time! Enjoy the heat for me as well, I'm rugged up in about three coats at the moment :(

You look great. It's always so sad when a great trip comes to an end, but I'm sure that you will be traveling once again in the near future.

Too bad it isn´t appropriate to explore in a bikini, it could be so comfortable! But your choice of clothing is a lovely and light alternative. I hope you will be able to create some more wonderful memories.

Loved viewing bits of your travelling in the South of France. It looks like you had fun taking these images. The frock is also a beautiful one. It's been hot everywhere lately, so I am hoping to catch breezes soon somewhere for a short work-trip. Enjoy your week, Gabrielle. <3 /Madison xx

Love the way you layered the dress over a basic black top. It's a nice touch and I definitely agree that it's a creative way to continue the color scheme. The choker reminds me of this one video I watched before on YouTube where the girl took a long black shoelace and used that as a choker. I wonder if you did something similar?

Floral dress looks so beautiful on you! It is colourful and looks so light that won't make you get hot. Even layering it with a black top looks good, I wouldn't think it would be that pretty! I hope you soaked up as much as sun possible, you will definitely miss the warm summer breeze when the cold hits you :) x

The midi dress is lovely and I really like how you combined it with the crop top. This is such a clever idea! The location is absolutely lovely! Enjoy the rest of your vacation!

Definitely soak up the sun and enjoy every minute that you can. Ah, I'm SO in love with your floral midi dress. Lately I have been obsessed with longer dresses and usually I prefer a shorter hem, but maybe they remind me of my teen years in the 90s. I guess they will always have a special place in my heart.
