Ever since it became apparent that the fashion world was shifting away from skinnies I’ve been obsessed with finding the perfect pair of flared jeans. I searched all over the high street but eventually ended up back at my original starting place, as is so often the case. I’m not usually one to jump on to a trend bandwagon but the Summer Seventies revival has got me, completely got me. I have a huge yearning to fill my wardrobe with floaty maxi dresses, a-line mini suede skirts and bell bottoms galore.
Jeans: Mango at ASOS (dark wash version) | Top: New Look | Ring c/o Hazel and Kent
It has been a long time since I last owned a pair of Mango jeans and I had forgotten just how much I rate the brand for denim- I find it suits my height and build perfectly, where other brands don’t seem to. It was love at first sight when I saw this 70’s flared pair on ASOS for a mere £22, they have since sold out but I have linked to the indigo version above (next on my list I think!).
I’ve come to realise over the last few weeks that I own very few tops that aren’t basic vests or knits, which makes putting outfits together problematic at times. I saw this gypsy style number in my local New Look and couldn’t resist, it was made for pairing with these jeans and as it also comes in a tan colour I might be going back for another.
I think gold jewellery might have gone with this outfit better but I couldn’t wait to show off this statement silver ring from Hazel and Kent (a brand I discovered through the e-tail PR blogger network). I can’t find the exact style on the website anymore but there are similar styles available for under a tenner- such a bargain for such a statement, high quality piece!
All I need now is some platform sandals for when the weather warms up and this outfit is good to go, I’m dying to get out of ankle boots and (on a good day) trainers…come on weather, it’s time to let me free those feet!
