What I'm Wearing: How To Wear A Denim Skirt - Part 4 Posted by Unknown |

The fourth and final part of my How To Wear A Denim Skirt series – see Part 1, Part 2 and Part 3. I really have tried doing the collar buttoned right up to the top, but it just doesn't work on me. Neck probably too short, I'm thinking. Luckily this cafe latte coloured silk blouse from Topshop (long sleeved black version here) has a second button pretty close to the top so I think I'm still managing the preppy hipster vibe. Sort of. Anyway, the skirt you've seen before, part of the fabulous Riyka SS13 collection and the delicious mint coloured brogues are Hudson. Earrings (recently spotted on Kimberly from Girls Aloud) and rings by my favourite Brick Lane jewellery boutique Comfort Station. I've also included some close-ups in this post. Hope you like them, I totally meant to do this before.

Part 3 of my How To Wear a Denim skirt series (see Part 1 & Part 2). I love tucking jumpers into a waistband – the leather band on this skirt is perfect – and it's something I just don't do enough. I also love the bobbles on the knit's cable pattern set off against a simple round neck. Round neck always over a v-neck, I say. More ankle boots (remember back when ankle boots – the 'ankle boot'? Haha, oh fashion speak – didn't really exist apart from when they were cowboy boots?) and these are a pair I've had tucked away in a shoebox for nearly a year. No idea why, I think I thought the mauve wasn't quite right last autumn, whereas, this year it feels just right. And they're by Ash, one of the most comfortable shoe brands I know. Though sad to say, my two pairs of Ash heels were worn so much during an intense party period that they are both scuffed and wine-stained. But still I keep them in shoeboxes on top of the wardrobe. Sentimental hoarder, me?
