I went out for a meal with the girls/ladies from work and of course this cardigan made yet another appearance. It was actually a much better night than I thought and it's funny how some people come out of their shell once they've had a few drinks or just out of the work enviroment. I found out things about my boss which I never wanted to know in the first place! I'm not a big drinker myself as I go horribly bright red when the smallest amount of alcohol enters my system...which is not a good look even though it never ceases to amuse my friends and family. Though, it has to be said, it's in the genes and all to do with my Chinese heritage!
I wore...
Black Cardi (H&M)
Ruffle Dress (HK)
Belt (TopShop)
Leggings (TopShop)
The dress is quite versatile because it buttons up and unbuttoned, it works as a sleeveless cardigan so I plan to layer it up in an outfit one of these days!
I helped my sister move into her halls yesterday in Liverpool (she's a second year Law student) and she filled a suitcase with clothes and my dad was very thankful there was a lift. He said the case was easily 40kg. I on the other hand, agreed that everything she took up with her was essential and understood....as I am sure you all do too! I want to visit her one of these days as Liverpool is currently the UK's city of culture with a brand new shopping centre. Of course there is the culture itself, and I might make a trip to Albert Docks to Liverpool Tate! Shopping then Art I think...
Its always good to have a trusty item on the go, the dress looks lovely with the cardi :)
ReplyDeleteand I get red everytime I drink too, damn my Chinese genes...
I have one thing I wear every day without fail: my wedding ring.
ReplyDeleteEverything else is negotiable.
I can easily believe your sister toted 40kg worth of clothes to school. I did the same. You've got to have your favorites on hand, right?
One might argue that shopping IS art or at least an art-form. I think you best put this test and shimmy up (or down) to Liverpool.
ReplyDeleteHi there-You look lovely in this outfit, the blue is a gorgeous colour on you! Liverpool sounds an exciting place to visit, I haven't been there yet either!
ReplyDeleteloving the blue 'dress'
ReplyDeletei have a trusty cardi too.i wear it all the time.loving your dress,the colour is beautifull xx
ReplyDeleteOh Winnie! You must tell me who this Style bubble girl is because you're not the only one to make that reference lol.
ReplyDeleteYou look very nice here. I like ruffles and your ruffles are cooooool. Two 'o's' are just not enough hehe :)
As for my trusty item its not actually a piece of clothing. Its my wallet but it has a wicked design on it from and independent artist. Its like my fashiuon statement from the mainstream 'fashion statements' hehe
I think a trusti cardi should be in everybodys wardrobe. I am off to liverpool to look at the university. Hopefully I will have lots of time to go shopping. x
ReplyDeleteOne thing I can't live without is my phone )))as to clothes and accessories - I change them everyday ) And at home I can't live without my warm morning gown
ReplyDeleteHugs from Angel
The dress is lovely =]. My trusty item is a pair of black skinny jeans - so easy to style!
ReplyDeleteLiverpool One shopping centre is quite good, except for when it is raining as its not covered in, boo!
I love your frills, so well match!
ReplyDeletea kiss!!
That colour really suits you! I have a couple of necklaces that I wear all the time, and I guess I wear my Levis waaaaay too much. I'm trying to collect rings so I can wear rings on all my fingers on a daily basis!
ReplyDeletemy go to piece now is a grey sweater dress i got from barneys. i can layer it or wear it alone. i am like you, i can't drink. one glass of wine and i am gone.
ReplyDeletelove the richness of the blue from your outfit
ReplyDeletecute dress.
ReplyDeleteget down to liverpool, you'll love it. i suppose it's up from birmingham though...

oo love the colour of the dress with the brown belt! you look so cute with your head next to the camera, you should get a tripod!
ReplyDeletei love the little ruffles
ReplyDeleteThat dress is so pretty!
ReplyDeleteI don't know if I have "one" thing I can't live with out...there always seems to be so many I don't want to leave behind.
I don't uusally feel cold so I don't wear cardigans. My essentials are, EYELINER, mascara, concealer, headbands, tons of bangles, my name necklaces, 2 rings. Hahah yes, 2!
ReplyDeletePS. YOU LOOK GREAT :D
That dress is really beautiful! Great thinking pairing it with the brown belt - those colours work so well together! Oh, and I'm not a big drinker either...mainly because I hate the taste of alcohol.
ReplyDeleteThat cardigan is adorable!
ReplyDeleteLove the dress & belt together.
