The Tibi Mini Skirt

I know it's nothing special but for some reason I really love this outfit.

White skirt, black vest, chambray shirt and heels. That's about it but still, it's a nice mix of expensive/cheap and girly/tomboy.

I think there are two things that I would pinpoint specifically:

a) The textured Tibi mini skirt - it's a cute voluminous bubble shape with elasticated waist. Perfect for those big lunches/dinners. And it was massively reduced in the net-a-porter sale - can you believe this was originally priced in the £200 range.....erm, WHY? It's nice but...no, just no.

b) The shoes - FINALLY these have been made comfortable months after purchase. I love the way these Sam Edelman's look but comfortable they are not. Something about the metallic leather that just wouldn't soften until wear 20 but here they are and I am friends with them again. The chunky block heel, the metallic detail....they are perfect summer shoes. I quite like them in the bronze/darker leather...mmm :)

The shirt perhaps ruins the shape of the skirt slightly but it's my dress down comfort blanket and I couldn't give it up :)

Skirt: Tibi - Link! (very similar ASOS one here - Link!)
Shirt: American Eagle
Vest: BikBok
Lace bandeau: American Apparel (if you can make it out!)
Shoes: Sam Edelman - Link!
Bag: Celine
Sunglasses: Elizabeth and James

On another note, a perfume one...(ha de ha)...L'eau de Chloe was my perfume of choice today. This was a gift and it's as pretty as the bottle makes it appear to be. It's apparently made with 22% rose water. The remainder of the notes include grapefruit, violet, cedarwood and good old patchouli. It's light, non-offensive and perfect when you are feeling clammy and sweaty.

...and the nail polish? Well this is the best Gelish colour I have ever tried.

Cue lots of exclamation marks...

!!!!!!!!

Next post tomorrow with the big reveal about the generic pale pink colour :)

Hope you had a good start to the week!
