Sheerness

I'm on at the airport now so just thought I'd quickly show you what I wore yesterday.

Photobucket
Shirt and dress from Topshop
Body con skirt from H&M

The dress thing belongs to my Mum and it must be the first and only thing she has ever bought from Topshop. I love it so will probably be stealing it a fair bit. The knitted top panel and the sheer bottom section is really on trend at the minute and I love a bit of mixing textures. The shirt is sheer to but I'm not that brave to wear it on it's own. I picked it up in the sale for a cheap as chips price, the only down side is that it's from the tall section and I being closer to petite can't really handle the long sleeves so keep having to roll them up.

Ireland has been wonderful and I'll be sharing all my pictures with you in the next few days. I'm sad to leave but I'll probably be back later in the year.

Have a good weekend x

  4. You look beautiful :-)

    I'm always "borrowing" clothes off my mum and she returns the favour. It works quite well, actually.

    I hope you're happy my darling. You do look it :) x

  7. Sadly my mum is considerably skinnier than I am and has much smaller feet, so I have no chance of borrowing nice things from her!

    Love this outfit on you.

  14. I do love a dress over a blouse combination - exactly what I would have gone for! Sheer shirts look great underneath stuff, they can make a look feel very glamourous. Apologies to your mum, but you should definitely hang onto that dress! xx

  15. Love the outfit. I love sheer shirts as well, but probably won't wear them on their own either. The dress is stunning.
