Claire is wearing a green flower [Peacocks], yellow flower [charity shop], orange tassel earrings [tassels from Leeds Kirkgate market, but I handmade them], off-white men's t-shirt [Primark], long high-waisted denim skirt [charity shop] and tan leather boots [Topshop].
Covadonga is wearing small yellow flowers [Chinese Bazaar, Spain] and yellow bow-tie [charity shop].
I was inspired by a Project Runway episode about evening wear yesterday, so I decided to wear my widest skirt today. It's very wide, it trails behind me on my way down the stairs.
I had been looking for a nice denim skirt that didn't look mumsy and too a-line, patchwork, too short or low-rise. I eventually found this!
The waist fits me, and the buttons mean that I can actually wrench it over my hips to wear it. The flared shape only enhances this, and I can swish around. I have been told previously that I look like a flamenco dancer in the peak of 90s fashion. It's a bit cowgirlish at the same time, but a bit of howdy never did anyone any harm!
To continue the flamenco theme, and on the styling advice of my housemate this morning, I a flowered low bun and I threw in the tassels for good colorful measure.
To contain the colour to my head I've kept the rest of my outfit simple, I'm enjoying a focal point today!
