What I Wore #4

Grey Marl Midi Dress

I'm not happy with how any of the photos came out, my boyfriends a tall man so I feel like I look a bit stumpy in all of them because they were taken from a height, (when I'm actually 5'7 and not stumpy at all!) Anyway, as there aren't any particularly flattering or good shots, I've made a little compilation instead. The weather was stunning, golden autumn leaves were on the ground, there was a gorgeous frost to the air but it wasn't cold. I don't like being cold!

I really like this dress because a)I love grey marl. I have a few tops that are similar to this. It reminds me of comfort and relaxation, but because it's a dress I think it makes it a bit more exciting than your average marl tee (not knockin' them, I loves a grey marl sweatshirt!) b) It's going to be versatile; here I've worn it with tights and boots, but it could equally be worn with ankle socks in spring, and on it's own with a belt and sandals in the summer.

 The dress would look cute with chelsea boots, chain necklaces and a bobble hat.

What I Wore #2

Rainy Day Last Week

 

I like blazers, they can smarten any outfit and are still comfortable. I had a long car journey ahead of me hence the leggins!

Other blazers I like;

Although I don't think I'd wear the first, I like the idea of it. Would be nice with a sleeveless lace vest underneath.
The second is classic and something I suppose we would call an 'investment piece'!

The End of Summer

What I Wore
Midi Skirt

I embraced one of the last sunny days of the year (even then there was an afternoon downpour)

I wore a peach/bronze metallic pleated midi skirt that I bought about a year ago (Miss Selfridge), a cream cotton blouse with detail (TopShop), nude flats (New Look), a vintage tan leather belt.

Other midi skirts I think are pretty good;

TopShop

Both would look ace with a black leotard and a blazer.


I never dress feminine but I quite enjoyed looking like a girl for the day!
