What I Wore | A 50's Take

Two Piece Set: Lashes of London*. Boots: My Dress Room*
I’ve wanted to get my hands on a two-piece for a while, but hadn’t managed to find one that I really liked the look of – until now. The majority I've seen are quite garish and floral which isn’t really me, but this one from Lashes of London is a bit of a beauty. It’s definitely an outfit you could dress up for a night out, but I quite fancied grunging it up a little, teaming it with a pair chunky boots, woolly tights and my oversized denim jacket. The top comes with an in-built bra which means extra support and no need for undies if you’re feeling free! The fit is lovely and the stretchy material means you’re not restricted (remember those important lunges in daily life ladies). It reminded my mum and me of a 50's bathing suit, which I definitely need to invest in!

These booties from My Dress Room are the definition of brilliance. I’ve not quite let myself jump on the boots with open sides and massive buckles bandwagon, but I am partial to a good smaller buckle every now and then and I think when one is a lover of boots, one must always make room for a chunky pair. They’re super comfy and are amazing quality. They're currently in the sale for £31.50, which is a massive bargain. I may even invest in another pair...you know, cause everyone else does that too, right?

If you wanted to get your hands on the top and skirt, they're also currently on sale and together cost a measly £30! Woohoo! Who doesn't love a January sale, eh? :)
