OOTD: Pattern Mash-Up

08 June, 2012


Sheer Shirt: Charity Shop, £6 // Bralet: New Look (Kids Section), £12 // Skirt*: c/o OASAP // Sandals: Topshop Sale, £25

Would you look at that?! I'm actually dressed like a girl today. This beautiful floral print, high waisted skirt was sent to me by OASAP. It's super short and super clingy and as you may have figured from my countless floaty skirts and dresses I have an irrational fear of wearing body-con, but it's actually so flattering on the figure and I love the fact it's high-waisted. I decided to be a bit adventurous and pattern clash my floral skirt with this aztec bralet, which was actually from the kid's section in New Look. It's always worth checking the kid's section there because the sizing is quite generous and their clothes are pretty much half the price of the rest of the store! I was a little self-concious by the fact this outfit is bodycon, so I threw over this oversized sheer black shirt to cover myself up a bit.

I re-dyed the top of my hair today to make it more of a vibrant ginger once again. I love the smell of freshly dyed hair! It's come out pretty vibrant, which I'm really happy with! I was really excited to see yesterday that the Official Urban Outfitters Pintrest had pinned some photos of me without me even knowing. I was genuinely overwhelmed!
