16.11

Morning all, Happy Monday and start of another new week! I hope its going to be a good one.
What did you get up to this weekend? UKers, I hope the weather wasn't too awful for you, we had the worst of it Saturday, it was scary at times (or, I'm a wimp!)

Outfit today:

The top is actually a vintage dress, which I bought because I loved the detail on the front,
however, I didn't take my height in to consideration and I feel it is far too short to be worn as a dress. Having being sat in my wardrobe for 3 months, I finally decided to pair it with the "jeggings".

Thanks for the amazing feedback on my jewellery, all but the compass are still available, so drop me an e-mail if your interested.

Have a great day!

the dress/top is amazing. the detail on the front makes it look so modern even though its vintage.

Susan said...

Those jeggings look ace, I'm not too big a fan of them as a rule but those just look like really fitted skinny jeans. The weather scared me too! xx

muchlove said...

love it! clever way to wear a too-short dress.

Harriet said...

That's such a nice dress/top! And I love your shoes! I got so wet this weekend with all the rain, actually that's a lie, I got very wet on Friday and decided to spend the rest of the weekend inside to avoid it happenning again!

WendyB said...

belle in arms said...

That is a great outfit, you look good.

Sher said...

I think you look really pretty in that dress, it's strange though that you didn't pair it with one of your tights haha:) But the jeggings looks good!

Cafe Fashionista said...

That vintage dress works so well as a tunic - love the way you've paired it with jeggings. But even more, I'm completely obsessed with your booties - they're heavenly! :)

noura. said...

The Haute-Shopper said...

Adore that dress! The bow detailing is fantastic! I think you could also get away with wearing this with thicker tights... I have the same problem with a few tunic/dresses that are too short to be worn with the naked leg.

Wanderlusting said...

I feel your pain...all dresses are too short on me :(

Sherin said...

The weather really was quite bad here this weekend. I love the vintage dress.

Jennifer Fabulous said...

Little Bird said...

Pretty perfect, as always. I love those jeggings! Totally getting some.

The weather here is terrible tonight - I'm praying the wind stops and the Sky signal stabilises in time for ANTM at 9pm!

Happy Monday to you too! :)

Dream Sequins said...

"Jeggings" hehe love it never heard of that word combo before.
The weather sure was freakish! To make matters worse I only watched that film about the end of the world---'Knowing'
Why? Why did I go and do that for!?

Where did you get your jeggings? I saw some at Target, but they were very cheap and tacky looking.

Hey, that's ok, it's understandable. I keep seeing people putting things up on Etsy and so when I saw your things I thought you might've already made a store haha. I really like that charcoal grey jumper/top though, lovely. xxx

cute sweater! :)

trishiekoh said...

you look amazing..as usual, of course!

closetcat said...

I love the front detail of that dress/shirt. I make that same mistake too with tops. But for me its the other way around. I buy shirts that are too long for me and I am forced to wear as a dress or a really long shirt :)

Yeah Saturday scared the life out of me! It was almost dark at like 2pm because of all the rain. I was at work at Topshop and we sold a LOT of umbrellas. x
