Day One Hundred and Seventy


Claire is wearing a men's denim jacket [charity shop], velvet halterneck blue dress with swirls [charity shop], blue with lime trim trainers [Nikes, from a Spanish charity shop].
Covadonga is wearing a blue scarf with brown, purple and teal triangle print [charity shop].


We're hitting a cold front today, complete with breeze. Which I am giving the cold shoulder in my low-backed, halterneck dress. I know it's not exactly daytime casual appropriate wear, but this dress is actually quite great! It's long so it keeps my legs sheltered, and hides ankles (if that's something you require in life), but it simultaneously reveals my shoulders and upper back: so ventilation up top, insulation on the down low. Moreover, it's nicely 90s with some synthetic velvet (but it's nice synthetic fabric with little static, if that's possible) and obviously a halterneck tie. The fabric has a lovely sheen to it, which compliments the body underneath it as it contours without highlighting everything, because subtly has it place and this garment is clingy enough a sit is! Finally, it's a deep indigo blue colour with subtle green and purple swirls: I look like a rave light! 
Naturally, such a 90s ensemble would not be complete with modern hipster trappings (over-size denim jacket, Nikes) and messy half-up-half-down-hair.
