What I Wore...

Yesterday I finally gave in and admitted that the ‘Indian Summer’ is well and truly over and gave my wardrobe a thorough sort-out! Away went the T-shirts and brightly-coloured summer dresses, out came the shirts and long-sleeves.

As I sorted, I realised that I don’t wear nearly enough of my clothes. I have so many awesome things that barely see the light of day! I have become ‘clothes lazy’, opting for the jeans-and-t-shirt combo all the time.
So I’m going to make more effort with dressing and post some of the results here!

To start, here’s today’s ensemble:


Hat: H&M
Jacket: Atelier Boz
Collar: handmade--see my tutorial here
Tunic: Vero Moda (bought from charity shop)
Belt: Saben by Roanne Jacobson (bought from charity shop)
Strappy top (worn underneath): H&M
Leggings: Ebay
Socks: Don’t remember
Brogues: Primark

The jacket is my absolute pride and joy. It cost a lot more than I would usually pay for any item of clothing but after years of lusting after it I finally had the opportunity to buy one and knew I would regret it if I didn’t!

Here is a better picture of the hat:


I bought this in H&M today! I’d gone into H&M in search of a belt, but the hat caught my eye instead. The feathers make it that little bit more playful. I may add something else to it, since I love to add my own touch to things.  

Here's hoping I can pull a whole heap of looks out of my wardrobe and make use of all the pretty things in there. Wish me luck!

  1. I love hats. I currently NEED a cloche but they're all for big heads. I need a children's one maybe lol! Good on you for mixing things up. :)

    P.s. somehow my husbands work account is linked so I'm posting anonymous but it's me Samantha (aka Mrs H!)

  2. Adorable, you have great style!

    I didn't know you were so young.

    Thanks for the comment on the partridge; totally overpriced on ebay, but it either sold or was taken down, because it's gone now.

    Kei (btw, how is that pronounced, like Kay?), you are a noreply blogger, did you know that?
