I'm not really jaundiced, I swear.
This maxi dress is the most comfortable item of clothing. Ever. I fear I look like I have no waist here though. I blame the cardigan. I wore this on Saturday to go and watch the football in Levenshulme (my new soon-to-be manor, fact fans) with E and J. Apparently I looked 'very Topshop'. I'm taking that as a compliment. Also, I think Saturday was only the second time a girl had worn a maxi dress to the pub we went to. The first time? My friend E wore one a while ago. Someone took a photo of her. Levenshulme, not so much with the fashion then.
I understand the Topshop comment. Snood! Headband! Cardigan! Dress! Plus leather jacket (not pictured). Layered to the max. This is the same nail varnish as in this post but I actually managed to capture the green, hologram-type effect this time.
Now, just like Carrie Bradshaw doesn't like to play favourites with her shoes, I don't like to play favourites with my jewellery. However, when it comes to this little beauty I just might make an exception. It's by Swank and I am completely smitten with it. In fact, I'm quite smitten with a lot of their jewellery. I think this Rock Lobster is next on my list.
Dress, Cardigan & Headband - H&M
Snood - New Look
Boots - The usual Docs
Necklace - Swank
Nail Varnish - OPI's Go on Green

I found your blog the other day and left a comment on one post, since then I've gone back and read everything you have written and I absolutely love every post.
I don't mean for this to sound like a suckup fest..your style of writing is really inviting and it's clear that what you write comes from the heart :)
Re. this post, I'm too scared to wear maxi dresses because they make me look really shapeless and I do need to up my accessories game because I wear the same things day in, day out.
That is a really lovely outfit :)

I love this look and the layering is brilliant. I've not managed to layer well at all - I always end up looking like a hobo! x
