Coat: H&M. Trousers: H&M. Shirt: Charity Shop. Jumper: Stolen from Boyfriend. Shoes: Charity Shop. Vanity Case: Gift.
An oh so comfy outfit for an oh so tedious Saturday afternoon spent in the library. These tweed-esque trousers are a great substitute for jeans and are both smart and casual. A classic pattern like this can never go wrong and remains a firm favourite of mine along with paisley.
My boyfriend commented that my vanity case looks like an old camera bag, which I suppose it kinda does...it makes a nice change from my usual bland granny bags anyway.
My inspiration for this outfit is pictured below:
Michelle Williams in My Week with Marilyn replicates an iconic 1950s look.

ReplyDeleteyeah the charity shop is in aberdeen - its on king st, opposite morrisons. i have never seen anything that cost over £4 in there, its amazing! and yeahhh i've been to that one, you guys have some good stuff! it's cool you work there, when i used to work in a cancer research years ago i loved having first pick of all the new stock :)
ReplyDeletealso, love your trousers! x
I know the one you mean, King Street and George Street are the best for charity shops because they are run by old biddies who price everything cheap as chips :D haha I am the same, I often struggle to put items out in the vintage as I would happily keep them all!
ReplyDeleteThanks, trousers are H&M, think they still have similar ones in store x x
absolutely love this look, its adorable. followed!
