Jacket: Principles at Debenhams, top: H&M, skirt: Primark, belt: vintage at Topshop, shoeboots: Office, necklace: D.I.Y from Laura Ashley, bag: Fiorelli |
There are some days where clothes just seem to work together and yesterday was one of those days. I wanted something frivolous that was also fairly practical and so the pairing of a simple white t-shirt with this gorgeous spotted skirt seemed to be a match made in heaven for a day of revision. I also got the chance to wear the necklace which I got for my birthday off Cindy and Dan as the colours matched perfectly!
For some reason I look really unimpressed in all of these photos but I was actually in quite a good mood! It was an outfit that felt slightly more grown-up, due in part I think to the white t-shirt...although it's a basic for many people, I can honestly say I only wear it a couple of time a year! I guess though, that's the beauty of being able to create your own wardrobe, a few years ago I wore it almost constantly so it's interesting to see how my style has evolved :)
Sunglasses: Accessorize |
Outtake of the day has to go to this rather windswept photo of me in my new sunglasses! I love the cat-eye shapes and Paula wears it well but have always been a bit wary until I swooped down on these beauties in Accessorize. I usually treat myself to a new pair of sunglasses each year whether that is magazine freebies or Primark specials and the tortoiseshell frames and slight cat-eye meant that I was unable to put these beauties back on the shelf... They have been the perfect finishing touch to many an outfit since I bought them and I think they may have even overtaken this pair as my favourite!
Has your style evolved? Do you think it's worth spending money on accessories or do you rarely wear them?

I did NOT realise this necklace was a DIY thing - that's amaaazing! Bravo Cindy and Dan! x
Awww this outfit is lovely and the DIY necklace kit is amaze!
As for accessories, I do love them, however when in a rush or just being general absent minded it's so easy to forget them!

i love the necklace kit, what a great idea! this outfit looks lovely on you.
Loving the beautiful skirt- the colours are fabulous. You've just made me realise that I actually don't own a plain white tee anymore. Lots of plain black, grey and pastel/esque pink but not white. How odd....
I love all the colours in your outfit together - they look so pretty!
Absolutely adore the skirt. It's an amazing colour.
And that's a pretty necklace. It's definitely worth money spending on accessories. They're what make an outfit!!
That skirt is a really lovely colour Maria, it's so cute on you. Also really loving the sunglasses too, shame it's so rainy at the moment!
Such a cute outfit, Maria! I love the necklace too!

ooo love the skirt!
Those colours are gorgeous on you. I've always been all about accessories. I go through months with no new actually clothing but just a million necklaces and handbags! That necklace kit is absolutely lovely. x
