Day One Hundred and Twelve


Claire is wearing a sky blue and gold beaded necklace [charity shop],men's grey over-sized vest [Leeds Kirkgate Market], long blue hand-knitted cardigan [knitted by my Nan], black leggings [Primark] and grey thermal socks [F&F at Tesco].
Covadonga is wearing a grey stretchy scarf [charity shop].


My vest matches the sky, and that's reason enough not to venture out there. That and the pile of sheets waiting to be transformed into digestible notes. Hence the lack of shoes, I'm not leaving my desk except for biscuits and some yoga.
I bought this giant (XX large) vest yesterday from the market for £2. The arm hole exposure going on is ridiculous yet edgeh. It's very comfy though, and I like the low cuts. I've been lusting after an over-sized vest for a while, I was keen on those basketball player ones with the mesh and the bright colours. They're coming into vintage vogue nowadays, but as I don't know any of the the teams, it would feel a little fraudulent. However, the stall also sells white mesh vests, so I may get my string vest happy ending after all.
The cut means I get to show off my beaded necklace, regally 90s, I think, with it's gold bead tipped points. It's a lovely shape and it sits beautifully. I find it's an usual occurrence to have one that lays well with only 1 clasp option, so top marks here! 
Finally, I feel my new lipstick is apt for this occasion. I bought a more natural looking one, alluringly named 'Cinnamon Frost'. Don't get me wrong, it's quite pinky and shimmery, but less bright than normal. I feel it sums up the casual vibe today, and my work out wouldn't be the same without lippy...
