Excuse the quality of the photos, I had the camera on the wrong setting – but I’m too lazy to take more.

‘Maltida Jane’ because it’s so ridiculously girly, but a little dark too. My mum calls me Matilda Jane on occasion, I haven’t got a clue why. It seems to fit her anyway, and maybe she has superpowers, like Roald Dahl’s Matilda. That would be interesting.

Ah, it’s lovely! I especially like the shaping and the feminine neckline. That’s a great color on you, too.

I like the lacing, it gives it that extra something. I’d not noticed the cows until Becky pointed them out. Very cool.
