Today I'm Wearing

First thing...IT IS SO WARM TODAY! WOW!

Mint Green Blouse--- Miss Selfridge
Black Jeggings--- ASOS Petite
Black Body--- Wolford
Sunglasses--- Tom Ford
Grey Bag--- Prada
Grey/Purple Loafers--- Tods
Gold Watch

 

Just a random side note to start! I forgot to mention that on Monday I was walking around Oxford Street with my sister while she was visiting in London and I had a photograph taken by COSMOPOLITAN magazine for a new concept cover they will be doing- a mosaic of many faces apparently...maybe I'll be a tiny part of one of their covers coming up! Will keep everyone posted !

This mint coloured blouse is the same style as the salmon/pink one I wore from a previous post! You see how long it is here? I would usually never EVER brave this untucked and in this way unless I was wearing either skinny jeans or leggings. I would otherwise be totally swamped and drowning in the excess volume of the blouse!

I love the tone of the mint green, like a MINT ICE CREAM colour (which I sort of mentioned in a previous post 'Ice Cream and Glossiness'). The combo of the mint green and the pastel grey/purple I adore!

Useful Tip:
When wearing something loose and unfitted- balance out your proportions by wearing something fitted on the legs!

Today I'm Wearing

Green Cotton Jersey Top--- ASOS
Brown Leather Bag--- Mulberry
Black Jeggings--- Topshop Petite
Shoes--- Gina

I've gone extra easy and simple today! This top (because it's so comfy) I actually have it in a purple as well! I'm sure you guys will start noticing very soon if I like something and if it's available in different colours...I WILL INVEST (well, only if the colour suits me!). I like to shop like this because I will mention again that I'm a little short, so anything that I find that has a relatively good fit, I will definitely consider in different colours!

The plum hue of the Gina heels gives the outfit a bit more colour, but doesn't overpower the green of the top as they both share similar tones. The gold soles of the shoes make the outfit stand out a little more but in a very understated way.

This top has a small row of 4 buttons sitting just beneath the neck tie- I'll try and get a close-up next time- perhaps using in purple version =) !

Have a wonderful day, everyone!

Today I'm Wearing

Blue Cotton Blouse --- Dolce and Gabbana
Black Jeans--- Topshop Petite
Brown Leather Belt- Gucci
Brown Leather Bag---Mulberry
Sunglasses--- Tom Ford
Mint Green Loafers--- Tods

Instead of going  for obviously brown shoes to match the belt or the bag, I've gone for MINT colour- soooooo this season- on my feet! I love the tone, the colour, the shape of the shoe- just everything!

I love the details in the blouse from the necktie to the collar (where it buttons-see how the shirt comes together) to the cuffs!

I must admit, D&G blouses don't fit me properly in the sleeves- so believe it or not...if you take a look in these photos...I have actually FOLDED the cuffs once,  then buttoned them together from the insides turned out (confusing explanation i know)!

I think I've done a good job making up for the fact that I'm too short for D&G...I think the sleeves look all right =) !

Useful Tip:
Keep hair off the face when showing off a special detail around the neck area.
