Let's start from the bottom. I'm obviously wearing flat shoes (not that I usually wear other kinds of shoes) to lessen the chance of me spontaneously falling over and going into an eternal sleep coma. They're monochromatic lace ups from Aldo. The dress is very important in the execution of my 'sleepless' strategy as it's an automatic outfit that doesn't really require much effort in terms of accessories and putting on. In addition, the stretchy fabric hugs my body the way my blankets and duvet would if I and my bed were better friends. This TopShop piece is perfect because of its colour and the fact that it can be worn at any time and place-merci beaucoup Mademoiselle Chanel. I brightened the look up with a light utility jacket in an interesting coral colour-merci beaucoup Mom's Closet, and everything was pulled together at the last minute with a bowler hat that was purchased from a small shop in the tiny town of Clarens in the Free State.

Hopefully I will get some sleep soon, but by the looks of things, chances of that are quite slim. There is a lot to do and so I have concluded that I will most probably have to wait until the school vacation to finally lay my head down on my pillow for a few solid days.
