And you're tearing up your photos cause you wanna forget it's over
Without sounding too egotistical, I'm
starting to feel like every one of my outfits recently has been a new
favourite. This was another outfit that I just absolutely loved. I
copied the layered maroon top from Sian, who wore this top under her daisy print dress when we went to Crystals and Crumpets. At first, I
wasn't completely sold on the competing necklines, but I actually
quite like it now. The socks were a last-minute idea, and the hat was
actually kind of a joke at first. I'd been a bit upset and my
housemate Briony was looking after me in my room when she tried my
hat on, so I put it on myself. It was the final addition my outfit
needed.
This dress makes me really miss living
in America, purely because delivery from Modcloth is absolutely
extortionate to the UK. I wish I'd taken advantage of it more when I
was over there!! This was my 21st Birthday dress and also
the dress I wore when Erick and I went to the Minneapolis sculpture
garden, so it always holds happy memories for me. It's a little bit
big, but I only realised today that you can tighten the corsetting at
the back, so I might be able to adjust it a bit.
Today has been a weird day. I worked
until 11pm last night (but it was quite fun- I ended up working with
a girl I went to high school with so we were trading gossip from a
million years ago, and we also managed to snag some free sandwiches
left over from an event upstairs) and then I came home and watched Gok Wan with Beth. I got to bed about 12.30pm and was absolutely exhausted. I've spent the day crying on Briony (it's been one of those days!) writing articles and feeling pretty down and ill and tired. I did drag myself to dancing though and feel so much better because of it. I'm just about to get dressed up and ready now to go out with people on my course. I'm hoping it'll be fun.

Very sweet dress!
ReplyDeleteYou look amazing Charlotte!! And I think all your outfits have been fabulous lately too =) They've been really inspiring me and I keep wanting to go out and buy things to copy your looks (ie. the shoes!). This dress is just so cute, I love the buttons on it, and what a clever idea layering it over the top ;) And the hat just looks awesome, I need to get a hat and wear it, I never wear hats but I think they look so good!

I love this outfit! So glad you added the hat :) I love the way you and Sian both wore this shirt, it's such a gorgeous colour. I don't like to hear you've been sad :( Hope you've perked up a bit now. And I hope we can meet up soon!!! Amy xxx

ReplyDeleteThe hat is definitely the cheery on top here, and it looks so cute on you. I'm sorry you've been feeling down, hope you had a good time out!
