Outfit

SARTORIAL JUXTAPOSITION

June 11, 2013


. FLAMINGO TEE .

I’ve been meaning to share this outfit with you all for ages, I was saving it up as I actually really love it … as you all know by now I do love my leather skirt, but this outfit was the first time i’ve really styled it down, with my new flamingo top. The casual colourful tee and the structured leathers skirt are the perfect sartorial juxtaposition.

The top is actually relatively new from the clothing brand Brakebrun. Brakebrun is a brand i’ve only recently come across but a fab brand for stylish sports wear, kinda surfer chic (which I absolutely love). I was lucky enough to get to pick an item to feature on my blog, and as soon as I saw this tshirt I knew I had to have it. The colour is just perfect, I seem to suit quite bold bright colours (maybe due to my hair colour etc) and this colour seems the right tone for me. I also absolutely love the flamingo print, and think it’s so cute! The best thing of all though is the quality, it’s such a good thick tshirt material, its so comfortable to wear.
. H&M Real Leather Skirt . Brakeburn Flamingo Top £22.99 c/o .
. Daniel Footwear Unforgettable Sandals .
I wore the top with my leather skirt and love the uber casual, but kinda chic style it created. It’s something I see international bloggers rocking all the time (the whole effortless chic look), and love the idea of wearing something structured and formal with something completely casual and laid back. The tshirt really softens up the leather skirt and makes it totally suitable for a more chilled out look.
What do you think of this outfit? Are you a fan of mixing up garments to create a sartorial juxtaposition?
