O U T F I T | AX Paris Paisley Pinafore Dress

Pinafore Dress*: c/o AX Paris // Tie Dye Crop: Urban Outfitters (old) // Shoes: ASOS, £30

A while back before my move to my new house, AX Paris sent me this adorable white, paisley pinafore dress to style. The paisley print is subtly pressed into the fabric and can only be seen when you’re closer to the dress, which makes it that little more unusual. I’ve developed a little obsession with the colour white this summer, which is partially due to the fact for the first time ever I seem to have actually developed a bit of a tan. Thank you, glorious heatwave! Usually my skin never accepts a tan and just seems to either burn or stay milky white and acquire more freckles, meaning I can never wear white. I’ve layered a pink and blue tie-dye crop top underneath which I bought from work forever ago now.

These beautiful, beautiful shoes were a treat to myself a few months back from ASOS. I had seen similar Vagabond ones that I was coveting, but these ASOS replicas were only a mere £30 and they’re velvet. If you’ve been reading my blog for a while you’ll know the extent of my love for velvet. A very large percentage of my wardrobe is in fact velvet. I’m still living without the internet at my new house, which means I’m still blogging from the comfort of Starbucks with endless re-fills of their filter coffee. This is set to change though by the end of the month and although it’s been refreshing to live without the internet I am excited to be able to blog and browse the net without having to trek into town.
