Day One Hundred and Forty Two


Claire is wearing a multi-coloured watercolour scarf [jumble sale], giant gold hoop earrings [Topshop], blue and white stripey tank top New Look], 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 snapback cap [Airwalk, from Sports Direct].


I bought this tank top, or crop top as it looks cropped on the hanger but when you actually stretch it to wear it, it's actually full length, as part of my post-exam shopping trip. I've been feeling the crop and fitted top vibe recently, especially in combination with the high-neck, no shoulder thing. All the things indeed. The style is very much in; it's a bit 90s and after having bought this top, I then saw 3 girls all wearing the same one that afternoon.
I rarely buy in to stripes but I'm trying to be more varied and embrace their linearity. The navy and white combo means I look a bit sailor today with my denim, but ahoy to co-ordination!
It's comfy and snug too, which means I don't even have to wear a bra, which is great as the one with the co-ordinating straps for this top is in the wash. Always the way... 
I get to show off my shoulders and arms, recently honed by a Youtube dance video channel (Fitness Marshal, great songs, sass and the routines are suitable for the uncoordinated such as myself). Meanwhile, I'm balancing out the snugness of the top with my baggy jeans. 
All about the baggy to snug ratio.
