HOLIDAY LOOKBOOK: SAILOR STRIPES

I apologise for the lack of posts over the weekend, its mainly due to a combination of bad weather and genuinely being busy in the past few days! Once again, I'm showcasing another couple of holiday purchases, surprise surprise bought from Topshop! I've been on the hunt for a striped cropped top, preferably long sleeved as its such a classic item to have in the wardrobe. I'm still hunting, but this one makes a nice alternative whilst I search, especially with the addition of the sheer floral appliqué edging! It makes the look summery, however I will easily be able to wear the top in winter with jeans or a skirt and tights. I also found these shorts, which aren't typical denim not only because they are looser and therefore more flattering, but also because they're actually made in more of a canvas material, which means they're lighter and softer. They create a casual, carefree look to just throw on when the weather's a bit warmer, with the stripes maintaining that element of classic chic. My skin is slowly reverting back to its chalky milk bottle self, as I had a few problems with removing and re-applying the fake tan product I brought away with me. Any shoots from here until I return home will be considerably less tanned for this reason. 

T-Shirt, ring & shorts - Topshop
Necklace - Miss Selfridge

Heels - Steve Madden






 I wish I had more variety concerning my shoes, but this would only be possible if I had an endless budget for suitcase allowance when flying! I will be back to a more varied range of shoes when I'm home at the beginning of September.
