Animal Print A-line




I'll admit to you, I've worn this outfit twice now. Something about it makes me feel very Roman Holiday-esque. It's simple, pretty, & perfect for an evening meal out. The skirt is one of my treasured vintage pieces (you've seen it paired with stripes here), & the vintage bag I've been favouring quite a lot recently. The bold animal print works well with heather grey & I like the added element of lace cap sleeves. Classic Ray Ban wayfarer; Michael Kors ballet flats for comfort, et voila! 


Also - you can expect some changes to the blog over the next couple of weeks. I'm finally getting around to some long-overdue design tweaking, as well as creating a Facebook page for the blog. I'll be sure to share more info when it all happens :)


I was wearing:
Animal print skirt - Mr Jax (vintage)
Grey crop top - F21 (2010)
Patent bag - Vintage
Watch - Michael Kors
Ballet flats - Michael Kors
Wayfarers - Ray Ban

  20. I also get the Roman Holiday vibe from this! It looks simply perfect here but oh, I remember when you wore it with stripes and I loved that look as well. I'm the same way with bags - I can wear one for weeks at a time. Even when it doesn't match the outfit. Lol Also, classic ray bans are a must that I'm lacking! I should get on that.... :)
