Playtime

Neither outfit featured in this post was actually worn today,
it was more of a case of "would I wear it?"
(please tell me I'm not the only one who uses photos to help them decide!)

The first one was actually kind of a no-brainer...
I always equate t-shirts with jeans, especially casual t-shirts. Looking at this photo however I can see it works very well with a smarter cut of trousers

Except to see this as a proper outfit soon. I can't get enough of this tee!

This second outfit has been a long time coming. Ages ago I was sent this skirt from Damart; a shop I'd never have even considered buying from before due to my association between it and the older generation.
However, they still sent the skirt and told me to see what I could come up with. Months (oops) later and I finally feel like I could wear it.

Spinning qualities make it a winner. Always.

And I guess that proves that old saying right...you really cannot judge a book by it's cover.

Happy Tuesday (that feels like a Monday). I'm planning to take it easy today as the next two days at work are going to be MAD. Who launches a new system right before another bank holiday?! Apparently we do!

Have you voted yet?

P.S. I've had a few comments/tweets about my blog coming up as a phishing site?! It seems to be an issue for those using google chrome as their browser,
if any one has any suggestions do share...I'm lost!

Debzy said...

google chrome is telling me you are phished, maybe see if you can get onto chrome yourself and if there is a button for telling them you are human and not evil?

PinkBow said...

I do really like the skirt, very versatile!

pip a la chic said...

Loving the t-shirt and trousers combo, you look gorgeous as always :) You look great in the skirt too...I definitely wouldn't know how to wear it though (short legs :( ) <3 xxxx

That first outfit is amazing! You look really pretty! I know my week is all messed up to but on the plus side three days then another long weekend! xoxo

Alex said...

Damart eh? I think I'd need to chop about 6 inches off that for it to be a flattering length on me - oh, to have such lovely long legs as you!

Vintage Vixen said...

That skirt is fab on you and those trousers are pretty much perfect, too. xxx

Julia said...

how cute is that tee?! I'm not a lover of logo tees, so apologies... but a great outfit in all! :)

Kb said...

Wow that skirt is amazing and from such an unexpected shop! I guess it's best to not judge a book by it's cover in these cases, might have to pay this place a visit!

Pippa said...

Love the trousers and the casual look in the first images :)

I agree, after i stopped working there i could never afford anything! Always keep an eye out on ebay instead! :P

Love the ice cream shirt! And the skirt is too cute.

Lauren said...

I would definitely wear the first!

I love the skirt in the second. What material is the top made of in the second? I feel like I want it to be slightly... different. But I have no advice, alas!

You look great, as always! :)
