Outfit

RAIN ON MY PARADE

June 17, 2013


. DENIM PENNY DRESS .

Today’s outfit post is a little look from my weekend and features my new boots which I blogged about this week. The outfit is a casual-ish day look, which I planned to wear to see Rihanna, however as you’ll see half way through the pictures … it then decided to pee it down and so an outfit change had to be had.
The dress Is my favourite Motel number, I love this little denim dress, it goes with everything and is so comfy and easy to wear. The boots and glitter socks (from Urban Outfitters) give the dress a little edge and make for something a little different, versus the standard black tights and flat boots I usually wear it with. 
– RAIN – 
. Motel Penny Dress £50 . Office Ankle Boots £85 . Vintage Satchel .
I always admire the whole chic and casual smock dress styled with edgy boots look (aka Kate Bosworth / Alexa Chung)  but never really feel like I can pull it off. I always feel like the boots need to have a little heel else you look a bit stumpy legged and luckily my new boots are the perfect pair for the job. I deliberately chose a unique colour when I bought these boots, and I love how the burgundy colour is a little different and gives an outfit a little twist. 
I finished my outfit off with my vintage tan leather satchel which my family bought me for my birthday a few years ago. It’s my go to festival bag and is actually still covered in mud from Isle of Wight festival last year. This year was the first time in 4 years I’ve not been to IOW, so I had to get the festival spirit channeled into my look somehow :)
What do you think of my new boots? Are you a fan of the whole smock dress and ankle boots look? How would you wear these?

      I love that dress! I bought some boots similar to those from New Look I think the cut out part makes them a bit more summery! Big fan of this look!
