since i hardly venture outdoors these days, i make a conscious effort to step out in my finest threads on the rare occasion that i DO leave the house...

monday: dinner with gen & drea. outfit: white pussybow top with sweetheart neckline (hard to imagine) tucked into a high-waisted black pencil skirt (double button detail at waist) paired with two-tone cream/tan sensible shoes with black elastic detail and big brown bag (BBB). neckline accentuated by cream/grey/baby blue plastic shapes necklace. top H&M, skirt primark, shoes and bag charles & keith, necklace urban outfitters.

tuesday: dinner with sweetie & babylamb. outfit: long white tank worn casually over black skinny jeans paired with strappy chocolate brown leather heels and BBB, the statement piece being a sharply tailored red & navy pinstriped blazer. a simple gold heart locket pulls the look together. top warehouse, jeans and blazer topshop, shoes zara, bag charles & keith, locket H&M.

voila!

it gives me an unexplainable sense of delight to look well put-together (to myself at least), be it in a sharp blazer or gorgeous vintage dress... i love coming up with a new look every time i go out (to town), usually centering it around a specific item such as a funky shoe or particular print. dismiss it as cheap thrills, but to each his own i say.
