date with the night

Ello! Got two outfits to share today. I wore both of these yesterday, one in the day and one to go out in the evening.


 top, cardigan - charity shop, jacket - primark, riding pants - american apparel, shoes - creepers

The shirt actually has a really small check pattern on it that you can't really see in the photos. I feel very 'This is England' in it! And my evening outfit:





fur coat - vintage, dress - new look, tights - primark, shoes - ebay, socks - topshop

Who doesn't love a peter pan collar? I've had this dress for well over a year now (it was my new year's eve dress for 2010/2011!) and thought it deserved a bit of love! The shoes I won on ebay a few weeks ago after spending ages searching for a pair of chunky heels. They were under a tenner and the make is Kangaroo, I used to wear Kangaroos to school! I got the socks before the shoes even arrived cos I knew they'd look great paired with them. 

I'm going charity shopping the afternoon, we're going to try find some new ones! What an adventure. What are you up to today?

Again, have a good Easter!

    1. It's just a little black scarf that I tied in a bow, can't remember where it's from but I'm sure there's plenty around :) Sounds like a good day!

  29. Yes!! It your dress is similar to my dress! I love peter pan collars. It's always fun you thinking you can dress like a 5 year old and never want to grow up! I love how you've teamed it up with those shoes as well. You can pull the playful look off so well! Kangeroo's! I never had them when I was a child...is it wrong now I want them as an adult? :)
