dungaree dress & blouse - topshop, hat - h&m, shoes - new lookthis dress is something i really liked, but i just wasn't sure i would be able to make it look good. it's kind of... different, and i was worried i'd end up looking like a 5 year old! but, lately i've been pushing myself to buy things that i normally wouldn't, in an effort to try new things and really try and find my sense of style. my instincts told me to wear it with stripes (in a very alexa chung type way), but thought that would be too obvious so went for polka dots instead. will definitely be wearing it with stripes in the future though, am looking forward to seeing how many ways i can style the dress!
i also bought these shoes in the same way i bought the dress... they have quite a high heel, albeit with a wedge, but i've been trying to wear more heels lately because they really do make me feel more girly, and the height and posture they give me in photos is great. i'll always be a flat shoes girl, but i'm slowly trying to work my way up to being able to wear reasonable sized heels and not yearn for my loafers!
i went to see black swan yesterday, and thought it was amazing, really haunting and creepy but beautiful. natalie portman is without a doubt the most beautiful actress i've ever seen.
p.s the more i look at these photos, the more i feel i should be standing there with a pitchfork in my hand and a bit of straw hanging from my mouth.. definite farmer outfit!
the dress looks great, i wish i could pull off this look! x
ReplyDeleteoh dear, this is another item of yours that im desperate to go out and buy! im going to be penniless if i keep reading your blog! the dress looks so lovely on you, i think the spots look great under it and your signature hat makes it look stylish and grown up x

so adorable! that dress is positively lovely <3
ReplyDeletewell...you shouldn't wear a hat with this dress. and yes, stripes would have been too obvious, but the polka dots don't work. i would simply wear a white or grey longsleeve and some grunge lace up boots, in order to not let it look too girly. but the dress is really nice.
ReplyDeletelove that dungaree dress, i haven't worn dungarees since i was about 8 though hehe. definitely got that farmer girl vibe about it.
ReplyDeleteaww sarah this looks lovely, and bang on trend for daredevil denim too this season. well done xxx
ReplyDeleteohh you look so cute :)

ReplyDeleteNice wedges also :)

I think you have a really well developed sense of style! Every outfit you wear just seems really you, and you make me want to go buy things I never would have wanted otherwise. Then I remember that I'm not you, and maybe I should work on my own, already schizophrenic, wardrobe!
ReplyDeleteYou're so cute! Looks great together :) x
ReplyDeleteI love the polka-dots :) I think they would look better than stripes, but I guess that's just me! And I agree that Natalie Portman is an amazing actress!
ReplyDeleteSO cute !!! and girly !!
ReplyDeleteI've just bought these shoes yesterday on newlook website, and I'm glad when I see how they look on you !!!!
(sorry for my english)

It's inspiring to see someone emulate Alexa Chung rahter than just copying her. I love the polka dots and well the dress is just so gorgeous... especially with those cute wedges.
ReplyDeleteI need to find myself a dungaree dress (or some dungaree cut-offs) for the summer, particularly after seeing someone wear one so well, it's a definite must. x
Lovely outfit :) x
ReplyDeleteahh love this. :) you definitely don't look like a 5 year old.

ReplyDeleteHey! I adore your style and personality. I just wanted to let you know this girl - www.flashesofstyle.blogspot.com has recently and frequently seemed like she is imitating you/copying you/ripping off your outfits. Its just the kind of thing i see happen and can't let go, I had to say something about it!
ReplyDeleteAnyway, keep up your genuine amazingess. :)
