Blue Jeans

I'm not normally one to wear jeans, unless it's my trusty black high waisted skinnies in the Autumn, or when I have a long day of shooting. But I'm trying to get better at casual dressing, and slowly, slowly, I think I'm getting the hang of it.

As someone who frequently works from home, my uniform tends to be a mixture of pyjamas and comfy work-out gear, with a few staple skater styles for when I actually need to put on a bra and leave the house. Other than that, I have dresses. Lots and lots of dresses, mostly impractical, brought for dancing, clubbing or DJing in. They tend to be super frou-frou or covered in sequins, and not the ideal item for nipping to Sainsburys in. But I really need to break out of the habit of offering up either total slob or retro realness with my wardrobe, and attempting a cutesy, sort of vintage approach with denim seemed to be the obvious direction.

Necklace: Tatty Devine (no longer available)

Jeans: Boyfriend Fit from ASOS (no longer available)

Top: Long Sleeved Jersey Top from H&M (£7.99) 

Shoes: Sole Diva Navy Ballerina Flats from Simply Be (£10)

I decided to keep my bumper bangs and red lips, teaming the outfit with a cute boat necklace from Tatty Devine to give it a touch of riviera glam with a nautical nod. It was a comfy outfit, but I'm still not quite sure I feel like me in it - almost as if I'm playing dress up, which I know is a completely silly thing to say. I think it's something I like though, and certainly a look which I want to play around with a little bit more. Whilst I love my dinosaur pyjamas and penguin shaped poncho, there is something to be said about occasionally looking like a real life adult...

Until next time,
