Thanks for the comments on the skirt. It really is a very simple pattern, just two seams and attach the elastic, hence the quick result. I think I might be going to Abakhan's at lunctime to look for fabric to make a few more!
(
@annieeg The shoes are by Hotter and were an ebay bargain. You can blame
@Lowena for these as before she mentioned Hotter shoes, the brand had been off my radar.)
