Today's outfit is one of the aforementioned "timeless (in my eyes)" outfits that I will always go back to, wear each individual item a bijillion - totally a word, right? - times and will never tire of.
Said outfit.
Lace up flats: New Look (no longer in stock but similar here)
Button Down skirt which I am SO in love with: Celeb Look*
Off Shoulder top: Primark (similar here)
Bag: Zara
Not one to save the best for last, I'm going right in with what has already - as in, I only received it two weeks ago - become my most worn item this summer. This button down skirt* by Celeb Look is exactly what I'd been looking for for months now and it came at exactly the right time. It's the perfect length; not too "here's my arse fella's" short but it's also not too long and restricting. I wore it in my latest video which was a Summer Lookbook video (I'll link/embed that below so you can see it in action) and it got so many lovely comments.
The off shoulder top is one that I rely on (far too) often. There's something about a bare décolletage - ooh er - that just makes me feel good. This one from Primark provokes the biggest "should've got it in every colour" regrets for me because I've worn it to death and I just know that I'll continue to do so.
Those lace ups. I featured these a little while ago now - further terrifying proof that time really is flying by - and I still love them just as much as I did then. They're that perfect "Dressier than a normal flat, but without the heel" shoe and I am all for those.
In a complete and utter contradiction to the theme of this post - i.e comfort zones, wear all day ehhr day things - the lipstick that I've gone for today is totally, totally out of my comfort zone. You see, I don't really wear red lipstick. At all. I just don't feel like I've found one that totally suits me and if I'm being really honest, I just prefer nude pinks on me. However, Smashbox Fireball came into my life recently and I just thought it was the perfect lip to go alongside this
And I am all for those sassy vibes...
So, before I use the phrase "sassy" far more times than is really acceptable, I'll wrap this post up here. In short, button down skirts, lace up heels and off shoulder tops are 100% for me. Red lips on the other hand, are probably not. But hey, we all need to feel just one step closer to being Taylor Swift at times, right? Right... ;)
As always, thank you so much for reading. I hope you enjoyed this post!
