I loved the big, full, swishy skirt on this dress (and it has pockets!!) so I decided to keep the '50s theme going with a denim shirt tied at the waist. I've had this H&M shirt for a few years now and, truth be told, it's a bit small for me now. In fact, I don't think it ever fitted properly, but I was too lazy to return it. Instead of wearing it like an actual shirt, lately I've been wearing it on top of skater dresses like this as something in between a cardigan and a jacket. Perfect with a pretty dress, some Wayfarer style sunspecs and wedge sandals for a put-together outfit that actually requires no effort.
I went shopping last week and got a couple of new jewellery bits and pieces from New Look. Sadly neither the set of rings or necklace seem to be available online, but hopefully they'll still be in store if you fancy getting your paws on some. I really love the little pop of neon pink in the necklace, and it matches this dress perfectly. I've always been a big fan of necklaces on long chains, but lately I've been buying lots more of the short/statementy kind of necklaces. This one was nice and cheap - just over a fiver - so I think I'll have to go back to New Look and see if I can find any more bargain ones for my jewellery box.
