OUTFIT | #1


dress: Bay Trading, necklace: Marks & Spencer, shoes: Melissa

I bought this dress around two weeks ago, maybe more. However this is the first opportunity I've had to wear it so far, mainly due to poor weather. I bought it at the same time as the blazer I wore in my previous post. When I tried it on in the shop, I transferred a lovely big smear of red lipstick all down the front so it was probably a good job that I liked it so much! Trying to explain that one to the dressing room attendant would have been... interesting.
I actually didn't do anything today. I woke up late, around lunchtime, and mostly padded around my room and revised a little bit. After a while I got changed into some old jeans and a t-shirt since it seemed a waste to dirty a perfectly good dress for no reason. Also, you can really see how pale I am in this picture. I quite like it though; I look dreadful with a tan. Maybe it's the fact that the dress is little 50s reminiscent, but it reminds me of Mad Men when Don Draper refers to Peggy as 'fresh as the driven snow.'
