Yeah, I totally used the ASOS sales to buy one last version of my much loved River Island promdress. Now I have one in printed black, grey with hummingbirds, white with embroidered flowers and an apple printed one. The apples immediately reminded me of those teacher suckups that bring an apple to class each day, so I ended up with this kooky 70's esque teacher outfit. Inspiration struck me when I suddenly tought "hey, these dresses are perfect for layering over tops, WHY haven't I done so yet?" So I did.
No idea why but these pictures look like I've photoshopped myself into this alleyway. Let me assure you, I haven't. I suck at photoshop. The light's just weird!
blouse: T2 vintage
dress: River Island via ASOS
socks, bag: H&M

ReplyDeleteI can't believe all of those dresses were river island... and especially can't believe I wasn't paying enough attention to the fact that Asos sells River Island to buy at least one of them! They're the perfect silhouette for layering with tops... love this one and the black one the most I think!
ReplyDeleteapple print - amazing; layering - love it! it's how I mostly wear my dresses in the cold seasons; mixed prints, socks and shoes - iiiiiii! <3
