Today's Details

Photos of my outfit details from today including heels I bought from Zara last week (just the right height - not too high, not too low - and seriously comfortable) and a Zara trench I've had for a couple of years and couldn't be without, especially in this stormy hot-one-minute-raining-the-next weather.

Half Tucked

And just as you've given up on good weather, it arrives! 22 degrees and sunshine! Hoorah!

I only just packed away my lighter clothes but any excuse to wear them you have to take in this country.* I think my eagerness to do this has awakened me to the fact that I'm not quite ready for the colder weather and the layering it brings. But hey ho, I'll be ready with my jeans and skinny knits when I need to be.

My favourite skirt once again, with my loose white cotton t-shirt half tucked in and cork and beige leather sandals. They look uncomfortable but are actually one of the most comfortable pairs of heels I own. I didn't even realise till I looked in the mirror that I'd paired two striped pieces together, but since the top is subtle, I quite like the combination. And then I even stood in front on my Anya Hindmarch dust bag which also happens to be stripey.

*Just as I type this the sun once again, creeps back behind a cloud. Sigh.

Little Bo Peep

T-shirt - Uniqlo, skirt - Zara, wedges - Zara, necklace - Tiffany & Co

Little Bo Peep needn't worry. I found her sheep safe a sound. On my skirt.

I've had this skirt for a few years now after buying it in Zara when I went through a stage of having a penchant for dainty prints and chiffon pleating. I feel all of these trends have made a reappearance so it was time to break it out of hibernation for a warm and windy August day.

I teamed it with a grey stretch T, my cheesecloth pom-pom wedges and a top knot in the pursuit of off-duty chic.

Pin Striped Shirt

Shirt - United Colours of Beneton, skirt - Asos, pumps - Primark, ring - family heirloom, necklace - Tiffany & Co.

This is what I wore shopping over the weekend. It was humid and sunny so thin, breezy pieces were a must. I went for this loose blue, thin striped shirt, left the neck open and matched it with a white cheese cloth skirt and tan pumps (with cute matching bow details. Well I think they're cute anyway).

All White

I've had a couple of days off and I'm so shattered I haven't planned on venturing too far. However much as I would like to wear my pajamas to the supermarket, I'm not sure it would be received too well (for a start my boyfriend would most likely refuse to go with me) so I suppose I've had to get dressed - reluctantly.

Attempting to be as fuss-free as possible, I opted for my white jeans, my beloved white t-shirt which I've had for so long and worn so much that its going see-through and colour-pop platforms.
