I can't believe the weather today, it's been raining/hailstones/snowing here all day. When I woke up this morning and looked out the window, I immediately turned over and went straight back to sleep! I did have class this morning but skipped it in favour of a long lie - it was only a revision session though so I don't feel too bad about missing it! That's me finished uni now until exams start at the beginning of May. I'm going to take a couple of weeks off to relax and then I'll have to start some serious revision!
Once again, I'm dressed in head to toe black! But I think the polka dots on the blouse make this outfit a bit more interesting. It's such a versatile outfit - great for going out for dinner or to the pub, or lose the heels and red lipstick and it's a pretty relaxed outfit for the daytime (I wore it to the library last week!). I bought the blouse from Primark a couple of months ago because I really liked it but I wasn't sure if I'd wear it that much. Shirts which button up the front tend not to suit me very well, but I like this one with the addition of a belt so I've actually ended up wearing it loads.
I love this necklace too, I got it ages ago when River Island did a student lock-in evening. The men's jewellery sections in shops like River Island and Topshop are great for finding hidden gems, the jewellery always tends to be cheaper and (depending what kind you're looking for) just as nice! Definitely worth having a look next time you're shopping.

Polka dots are amazing.. and this top suits you ever so much! Also a huge fan of the gorgeous wedges x
ReplyDeleteBut I love the all-black outfit! Do agree with you though, the polkadots break it up nicely.
ReplyDeleteLove this outfit, your makeup looks really nice too! Those new look wedges are gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteAs usual looking amazing! There's something strangely satisfying about dressing nicely in the library.
ReplyDeletePolka dots look great on you! River island jewellery in general seems to be getting a lot better! It's a lot more grungy looking and a lot less glitz and glam!xxx
ReplyDeleteYour makeup looks amazing here! jealous of your skills. My brother picked up a great stag brooch for me in the Topman sale a while ago, love mens jewellery xx
