Japan- Flower power & the friendly deer




OUTFIT 1:
Shirt- Zara
Earrings- Tilkah
Wind Breaking Anorak, thanks to Pilgrim Clothing

OUTFIT 2:
Jeans- Saba
Tee- Ojay
Scarf- Witchery
Icebreaker Bliss Wrap, thanks to Natureshop
TeaPea shoes, thanks to Steve Madden
Bag, thanks to Ooh La La Accessories

I love a bit of diagonal photography, but gee whizz, it seems I went a little nuts in Japan and have managed to take a fair whack of crooked pics... apparently on purpose!  I do wonder what on earth I was thinking, and I do hope I'm not driving you nuts with my arty-farty photos : )

The garden pics were taken at the Imperial Palace in Kyoto, only open for 4 days a year, and timed perfectly with our visit!  The deer is a friendly deer who lives in Nara where we visited the largest wooden structure in the world- the Great Buddha Hall.  Rather spectacular indeed.
