I've passed the half way point of my week off work today and spent it lunching with my pal Charlotte and lazing about the house (and trying to tidy...)
I resurrected some old classics when I got dressed today. My eBay cat t-shirt (similar here) and my ye olde faux fur coat from H&M! Worn with my acid wash New Look jeans and new Sarenza* shoesies.
These suede t-bar shoes from Mellow Yellow at Sarenza* really remind me of the kind of shoes I used to wear when I was little, with the cute heart-shaped cut outs! The gummy heels mean they are super comfy - always a plus in my book. I've worn them loads in the short time I've had them!
Now I just need to find some grown up versions of the shoes with the key that changed the image on the sole for my nostalgia-footwear-fest to be complete! Anyone else remember those?!
Hair update (because you're clearly on the edge of your seat): I gave my fringe a trim today to make the sides look longer. It's starting to look ever so slightly more like a short bob rather than an outgrown crop now! Hoping to grow it just a few inches more and then I think I'll be happy with it.
The growing-out period hasn't been nearly as awkward as I was expecting! If I'd have known it'd be this easy, I'd have done it yonks ago!

Lovely outfit, your shoes are so cute too! I started growing my hair last year after having it shaved on both sides (big mistake) but it's so worth it. I think your hair looks lovely, not awkward at all!

LOVE the shoes! I had a pair of black patent shoes in a similar style when I was little, so cute :)
ReplyDeleteI just want to say I've been reading your blog for ages and it's SUCH an inspiration to me! Whenever I don't know what to wear I have a look at your blog to get ideas <3 I suddenly decided it was rude to never comment on my favourite blogs so I started doing just that.

ReplyDeleteAlso, you look great with slightly longer hair. I think a little bob would look so cute on you. x
I'm super shocked by those shoes, when I first saw them on the sarenza website I didn't think they'd go with that much but they look amazing here (cute and comfy! what more could you ask) I'm wanting them with tights and the faux fur ;)
