Lazy

Dress - c/o SheInside // Jacket - Topshop // Sunglasses- Primark

Dresses with collars attached are an instant win for me - they cut down on the bulkiness that comes with layering and you've got an effort-free outfit ready made for you. I've been painfully lazy when it comes to dressing at the moment, spending a week in jammies over the Christmas period has clearly done me no favours, so this dress has been my saving grace. This particular one is sold out at the moment but there's a similar one here or you can find the black version of the one I'm wearing here for only £22.

The jacket's one I picked up in Topshop last month, I felt a bit sick paying £75 for it but I reasoned that it was extremely similar to an Acne one I'd admired and, at £1525 less, was actually a massive bargain.

And that's the story I'm sticking to.

Samantha Griffiths said...

Coats and jackets are an investment I always say, therefore spending a bit more on them is completely justified. Plus if it's a "classic" style like this one you could potentially wear it for years.
Hope I've made you feel less sick at spending so much on it :P

P.s. Love that dress.
