Outfit Post | Paisley Print Love

You'll usually find me prancing around in a floaty dress or skirt; but I do love a good pair of jeans and top too. Sometimes it's just nice to be comfy, you know? Blouses and shirts are fast becoming a favourite in my wardrobe; so when the lovely ladies at Lavish Alice offered me the chance to pick one off the website I was very excited….. 





Shirt: c/o Lavish Alice Collar Brooch: Vintage Belt: Vintage Jeans: Italy Boots: H by Hudson
If something has a collar I’m probably going to want it; and this one makes me swoon like there’s no tomorrow. Neutral shades are my thing, and the paisley print really makes this blouse for me. The light, sheer chiffon material means it’s perfect for summer (although completely see-through, so have your strappy tops at the ready ladies!), and the silky paisley strip makes it feel so luxurious and expensive. But it’s NOT! Yayyyy, we all love a bargain, don’t we? It’s a measly £21, which kicks topshops butt any day of the week. I love how paisley is slipping it's way in to the fashion market, I really like the subtly of this print, and I think my collar brooch (picked up from a charity shop for £1) compliments it well. 
The beauty with shirts is that you can dress them up or down, so I chose to go for a more casual look, teaming this beaut with my new favourite skinnies and trusty old boots. Farmer girl-esque? Probably.

    Hi there would you mind letting me know which webhost you're using? I've loaded
    your blog in 3 completely different internet browsers and I must say
    this blog loads a lot faster then most. Can you suggest a good web hosting provider at a honest price?

    Cheers, I appreciate it!

    The obstruction in the nаsal passages mаy be cauѕеd on acсount of varіοuѕ reasons.
    Excessive intake of аlcohol and sοme ѕort of
    medicines suсh as sedatives or tranquilizеrѕ can cause snoring.
    Alcohol and sρecific medicines trigger relaxаtion of
    гespiratоry orgаns liκe throat and tongue whiсh in
    turn cаuses snoring. Making use of fat wealthy food such as sоy milk аnd itѕ merchandise causеs the mucuѕ
    tο depοsit аround the throat areas аlloωing
    lesser space fοг the rеsρiration approach.
    Sleeρіng in your back can pull yοur tongue inside
    which once more reduces thе гespiratory sраce.
    People with excess weight generally have faг more fat deposited οn thе thгoat
    and its surrounding arеas causing folks to snore.
    It is obsеrved that smoking also сausеs snoring.
