repeats

Both of these dresses (from yesterday and today) have been fairly recently worn for blog posts. I used to think it was a bad thing to repeat outfits, or perhaps not bad…just boring. I’m starting to re-think that now having seen many wonderful bloggers restyle things and make the most of what they have. Contrary to popular belief, I do not own an awful lot of clothes and the days I don’t post outfits are usually days where I’m wearing something I wore perhaps only two days ago.

To this dress I added cotton legwarmers and shorter boots. I’m not sure I overly love the effect as it seemed to shorted my legs and make me appear more frumpy.

This dress cost me all of £5 and is one of my most worn pieces, usually with an array of different coloured tights. These dark orange 80 denier tights from tabio are making their blog debut and are quite possibly my favourite coloured tights I own. The quality is AMAZING and they pick up the tone of this dress to perfection.
The fringed boots are a couple of years old now, but wearing very well for a £7 impulse buy.

On a final note, if anyone is interested in buying these necklace, please e-mail me. It’s crying out for a loving owner.

Enjoy your Thursday everyone; we’re almost at another weekend!

  35. You own the most amazing collection of tights!

  36. Still absolutely adoring the first dress – I love seeing bloggers restyle outfits too. Too often I wear the same skirt with the same top and never mix it up so it’s nice to get some inspiration!

  37. both dresses are so cute!!! but i love the second one the lace detailing on the top is gorgeous!!

  38. Love both your dresses but the 2nd one is gorgeous x

  39. It’s an awesome look and doesn’t shorten your legs or make you look frumpy.

  49. i used to feel exactly the same when i first started blogging, i didn’t like wearing the same pieces. but now i really don’t care, i think it makes blogs more relatable, when you see that the bloggers wear pieces more than once. i adore your chrismassy jumper, it’s lovely. xxx
