Hello my lovelies,
It has been way, way too long. I'm sorry! Alas, we are still without internet at the flat thanks to Sky and their awful shenanigans, so once again I'm blogging from the civilised comfort of the in-laws' sofa. Still recovering from the jet lag as we landed back in the UK early on Tuesday morning, a bit of a shock to the system coming back to chilly temperatures after the relatively warm holiday we had in Florida! I managed to take 1500 pictures so I shall try and post some once I've narrowed it down to, oh, about 50...
Today's outfit is all about mixing my existing wardrobe! Do you ever have moments where you suddenly become fixated on certain items you own and how they could work with each other in ways you wouldn't normally wear them? I hope it isn't just me who lies awake thinking up random outfits at night! The lace dress is a piece I usually wear with a slip underneath as it's a little risqué otherwise, but pop a nice cosy jumper on top and the problem is solved. I think I picked this jumper up a couple of years ago in BHS, just looking for an instant cover-up, and I remember it being really cheap! It's lasted well and has a really lovely neckline , but you can't really see it in the photos, unfortunately. I felt a bit like Wednesday Addams/schoolgirl in this outfit, but it was warm and perfect for a little stroll up to town!

I'm really craving winter knits at the moment as I've realised my collection is pitifully small! Do any of you lovely readers have recommendations at all? I'm looking for decent quality but not too expensive (as always, I am broke!) so please feel free to leave your favourite knitwear shops in the comments!
xoxo

LOoks really nice! I like how you stuck to dark tones, makes it look smarter and not too school girl-y. Are you using your new camera?
ReplyDeleteAnyway I think primark does do nice knits (does Brentwood even have a primark?) xxxxxxxx
Love this outfit!

Such a cute outfit! I love the boots with it, perfectly balances the sweetness. Looking forward to the holiday pics! x
ReplyDeletelove it! I think I have a similar skirt but never wear it so you've given me an idea :) xx
ReplyDeleteThis is very chic, Dani! M&S have some cozy jumpers/cardis and Dunnes Stores too! (which I'm not sure is even in Britain, it's in Northern Ireland though)
