School Girl at Heart

Now that it is starting to cool outside I can start experimenting with layering, especially with tights and socks. Apparently I felt like dressing like a school girl on this particular day with a peter pan collared dress, sweater, knee high socks, and Brogues; but it was fun so what does it matter? I fully intend on taking advantage of experimenting with fashion while still in school. Who knows what sort of dress code I will have to follow once I enter the working world? Until then I will dress whatever way I want (even if that means I look a little costume-y).

Dress - Forever 21

Sweater - Casual Corners

Brogues -Winners

Socks - Ardenes

Floral Skirts

I own many skirts and a lot of them are floral but this is probably my favourite one. I dress it up to go out at night in or dress it in a more casual way for the day time. The only problem I have with this skirt is that it likes to blow up int the wind (EEK!). Luckily for me the skirt has a pocket on each side that I can weigh with my cell phone or other things. This may sound a bit ridiculous but I love flirty, feminine feel of this skirt so I don't care.

Denim Shirt - Juniors

Skirt - Costa Blanca

Tights - Ardene

Lace up Boots - Spring

Sunglasses - H&M

Ring - Silver Wear

Can you believe that this ring that I am wearing actually used to be a piece of silverware? While casually strolling through a local farmer's market I found this booth that would buy antique silverware and turn it into jewelry like bracelets and rings. This ring in particular is made out of a silverplate piece from 1906! I love finding unique jewelry that has a story behind it. Just imagine what it has been through in those 106 years. I am betting it was a part of some pretty interesting dinner parties!
 

  I am just beginning to learn the art of taking good outfit posts (as you can probably tell by the fact that my face is not in the light). If anyone has suggestions of how I can improve, please let me know!
