Orange floral dress - Primark
Cream cardigan - Primark
Nude cut out brogues - Dorothy Perkins
This dress was found as a result of a self-imposed spending ban. I'm trying to save for New York so buying clothes is a no-no and I'm having to root around in the dark and dingy depths of my wardrobes for things to wear. Sometimes I'm disappointed but other times it's a pleasant surprise like when I found this dress. It's quite a few years old now and I remember being disgusted that it was priced at £25. A bit extortionate to be fair but it's made of lovely thick material with netting underneath to help make it poof. This is my summer uniform. It's so easy to chuck on a dress, cardigan and shoes when you pop your snooze button on a bit too many times and have to rush out the door to catch the bus. My lovely wavy hair is courtesy of the Bumble and Bumble surf spray - we've become firm friends. Just look what it does!
What is your summer uniform?
I am on a shopping ban too so I hope I find some lovely things I have forgotten about in my wardrobe too!
ReplyDeleteYour hair looks gorgeous, I need to get my hands on some of that spray.
I adore this outfit, those shoes finish it perfectly x
ReplyDeleteI love this dress, I have it somewhere in the depths of my wardrobe but I suspect it won't fit me anymore :(
ReplyDeleteLOVE the dress xx
ReplyDeleteSo pretty Sophie! I've got a hankering for some brogues now, yours are so nice! And you must have one of the best dress collections ever. (:
ReplyDeleteI'm trying to save as well, but I'm terrible at it! My summer uniform is dresses that have an empire waist. I only put true effort into my outfit if I'm legitimately going out at night. It's just too hot to do much for day. Your hair is looks beautiful!
