Under my hat

(Stripe tee: Topshop, black trumpet skirt and bag: Zara, Fur Stole: H&M, Shoes: DIY, Hat: Unknown, jewellery: Misc. ) #teenvogue

Discovered that taking photos in a public place at midday on the weekend was a bad move. There were kids on scooters everywhere. A little embarrassing for me I have to say. Oh, and the parents, very sweet and all, but still. "Kids, look at that ladies shoes! Aren't they lovely, Lets all stare for 5 minutes and watch her squirm". Okay, so they may not have said the watch her squirm bit but I was uncomfortable regardless.See the first picture, that's me watching the kids scoot off for another circuit of the gardens while trying to work out how long I had before they ran into me again with their Dora the Explorer scooter. 

Bought this skirt for Zara recently. I am a big fan of that kind of fabric at the moment so it ended up in my basket. It does make me wonder why I have added yet another black skirt to my collection of black skirts. I hated wearing black when I had to in school and stubbornly wore my grey skirt. Why now as an adult with my only outside activity being University do I love wearing black? So many questions. 

With love from,

  6. I love this adorable top and how it ties in the back! Yes, taking photos with lots of people around can be distracting!! Yours came out really good, just the same!

    1. It's typical Topshop and it is just an extra bit of fabric so I have to be careful not to lose it when I wash it.

      Ha, it is SO distracting, makes me feel super awkward too!

  16. As soon as I saw this outfit I rushed to the 'follow' button, I absolutely adore your style!! You look lovely and that hat, and the shoes, and the skirt.... agh the whole outfit! Please come and style me! :)

    I think it is cute that the kids were loving your shoes, I take that as a big thumbs up if kids like what I am wearing (is that the wrong thing to judge my outfits on? maybe?! But who cares, if a 3 year old thinks my dress is 'pretty' it can make me smile for the rest of the day!)

    1. This might be the nicest comment I have received. We should be friends! I think we might be the same person... I love it when kids say they like my clothes, makes me feel cool because I know that I am not remotely cool. Kids are brutally honest too so you know they mean it if they think your sweater with a rabbit on it is neat.
