FINALLY some beautiful sunny weather again! Today was gorgeous, Sunday will be good, and Monday and Tuesday will practically feel like summer. I am so excited to break out my spring and summer clothes again. This skirt for example, it was an amazing vintage find during one of Think Twice's monthly sales, marked down to just 2€. 100% cotton, lovely colour and print, AND it has pockets and an elasticized band in the back. Definitely the kind of piece you thank the vintage gods for when you happen upon it, especially since I was looking for something exactly like this. 

There's this one gorgeous streetstyle picture on pinterest of some lady wearing a printed circle skirt with heeled sandals and a simple t-shirt, and I could never get it out of my mind. Sometimes a picture plays so perfectly to your sense of style that it's just burned into your brain, forever egging you on to try and replicate it. This is the image I'm talking about.

Looking back, I didn't even remember her as wearing cat eye sunglasses and a ponytail. Turns out I was even more subconsciously influenced than I realized! And this will definitely remain one of my favourite inspirational images for bring that playful femininity I love so much. My version will always be more casual (as you know, I suck at heels and pumps of any kind), but that will just make it more "me" and less of a copy.

Hope you like the look, and have a lovely weekend!
