So here goes my first! Today I went out for some Yum Cha ((it was delicious, I didn't want to stop eating)) with my sister and her boyfriend, some shopping came home and then went to do my first ever shoot after my sister curled my hair with her favourite new beauty toy, in this scary but cute little walkway to our local tennis club and playground. I was so nervous but there are quite a few shots I actually really liked of me in one of my favourite outfits out of my closet! I know its the middle of summer to peep toe booties and leather skirts aren't the most generic summer outfits but Melbourne weather is super dodgy so it feels like autumn.
I wore a pleated faux leather skirt from Cotton On (similar is available at Forever 21), a patterned oversized cut out tank top ((I don't even remember where I bought it from but anything similar can make the look work)), black peep toe booties from Rubi shoes, a Links of London bracelet and a black vintage Chanel shoulder bag along with my favourite cherry red lipstick.
It took me so long to find the skirt after seeing it on http://www.ashley-ringmybell.com and was 4 sizes too big when I found it and a total impulse buy so I did a bit of sewing and took it in (a lot, its too big again though because I've lost weight recently) which turned out to be a blessing in disguise as it added a lot more shape and puff to the skirt. So glad I bought it!
I'm also not usually a big fan of cut out tanks but i adore this one and wear it all the time with several different outfits. It's just so perfect and slouchy!
Anyway, Happy Friday blogosphere! :)
