Claire is wearing a dark teal scrunchie [Leeds Kirkgate Market], black top with grey and gold swirls and cut outs [Vintage Kilo sale], black leggings [Primark] and black canvas hi-top trainers [Dunlop, from Sports Direct].
Covadonga is wearing a gold woven scarf [unknown origin].
I bought this earlier this year at a vintage sale, I was attracted to the sparkle. It makes me look like a figure skater with it's glittery swirls and the triangular cut on the front and back. The key-holes along the neckline are in reverse (basically they stick out) along the hem of the top. This only enhances the skater costume aura. I feel I should tie the triangles together, take my leggings off (probs should do that first really) and grab some skates and an ice rink.
Moreover, the arms on this are concerning. I'm having to roll up the left, while the right fits perfectly. Is my left arm longer? Am I lopsided? Is my top uneven?? What? Why? I've since decided that rolling is the way to go, it hides the excess fabric and I think it tones down the skater-ness of the thing.
Just gotta roll with it!
