Whilst my everyday dressing isn't usually all that experimental, sometimes it makes a nice change to have a reason to get a
bit dressed up. At the start of the week I was lucky enough to be
invited along to the launch of the new Sister Jane shop on Portobello
Road (post to follow soon!), which also provided the perfect excuse for
an impromptu burger date with Aisling, Sophie and Lily. If you're a
regular reader, then you'll know that I'm a massive fan of Sister Jane,
so the event on Tuesday evening seemed like the perfect excuse to dig
out one of my favourite designs from them and team it with a new
purchase:

Blouse (worn under dress): Sister Jane (via ASOS)
Dress: ASOS
Tights: Marks and Spencer
Shoes: Topshop
This
blouse has featured in many an outfit post, and is probably one of the
most worn things in my wardrobe. Whilst it's a lovely standalone piece,
the embellished collar detail also makes it perfect for layering-
whether under chunky knit or under a dress as I styled it here. This
dress from ASOS is a fairly recent addition to my wardrobe, added to my
basket on a whim as a rainy day pick-me-up. Needless to say, when it
arrived I was smitten- the oversized fit makes it really comfortable and
easy to wear (not to mention perfect for hiding a burger belly!), and
the batwing sleeves also add a really interesting dimension. It's
definitely a piece which I can see becoming a real classic, and I'm now
super tempted to pick it up in navy too!
Also,
I finally got round to having my haircut-hooray! I'd forgotten how nice
it feels not to spend half an hour wrestling with a blow dryer in the
mornings!
Have you picked up any new wardrobe favourites recently?
