Claire is wearing a pair of teardrop floral metallic earrings [jumble sale], dark teal scrunchie [Leeds Kirkgate Market], batwing floral blouse [from a friend], thin denim trousers [charity shop], black and white leopard print socks [Primark] and black canvas hi-top trainers [Dunlop, from Sports Direct].
Covadonga is wearing a fuchsia yellow flowered skirt [Leeds Vintage Kilo sale].
Decided ot wear this lovely blouse on rather the wrong day. Turns out it's not that easy to clean a hob whilst leaning over the oven without draping your batwing in the anti-bac spray. Today lots of things moved out, but I have not. Yet. My time will come but for now, my room is looking a tad bare. Moving all the things in this top was alright though; the lack of arm restraint helped! Still, the only issue is that it's made of polyester fabric, which means sweat, what with all the heaving and ho-ing!.
However, I'm willing to endure it (though I cannot speak for everyone else...) because this top is wonderfully floaty and feminine. I love the swirly flowers and rows of shapes. The shape is one I wouldn't normally opt for; I love big, draping sleeves but I'm usually not too hot for the smock look. However, the draping on the top is proving me wrong, especially with it's high neck and collar as I love a high neck, there's something put together and comforting about it!
Combined with my shimmery pink lipstick and nail polish, I feel like a 70s sweetheart!
