Wannabe Sandy
30.8.12
Top - Topshop
Bandeau - DIY
Jacket - Boohoo via Next2Nowt
Trousers - DaisyStreet
Shoes - Republic
Ring - Dorothy Perkins
Bracelet - Car Boot
When I was putting this outfit together it did cross my mind that I might look a bit 'Sandy'-esque. It turns out that I do look like Sandy. For anyone who has no idea what I'm on about, think Grease. The weather hasn't been much to shout about this week ('summer' is a lie) - explains the lack of outfit posts!
The top is another item I bought about 2 years ago but I've never worn. I think I've never worn it as it's see through and I don't tend to wear see through fabrics as I just don't feel comfortable in them. I still don't feel that comfortable wearing it even with a bandeau underneath, but I do really like it so it's a bit of a shame really! A vest top / strappy top just doesn't look right under it. If anyone has any ideas of how I could wear it I'd love to know!
These shoes are beautiful, but they still need wearing in. The colour of them didn't appeal to me much at first sight, but I've grown to like it more as they can top off quite a plain outfit nicely.
I've had a lovely week so far - my boyfriend came to visit for a few days. We made cinnamon sugar pretzels, which were ridiculously tasty (dangerously so... infact, I think my love for them is on par with my love for Krispy Kremes, and that's saying something!). Are any of you as crazy about cinnamon pretzels as I am?!

Oh Robyn I love this look! The shoes are amazing that's for sure. I share your discomfort about sheer tops, they're just not for me! x
ReplyDeleteYes! I need a way I can feel more comfortable in them! Maybe just always wearing a jacket?! Hah, thanks Sophie xx
