Slouchy Summer


cardigan: topshop | vest: H&M | leggins: topshop | boots: H&M | necklace: lola rose | nails: misguided mismatch & barry M glitter

So this is just a very easy, slouchy outfit I threw on last night before going to the cinema and decided I loved it quite a lot. Such a simple outfit and yet I think looks quite stylish, I blame the cardigan for it. 
I do like my baggy, slouchy clothing. When I was a teeny size 8 i definitely went for tight stuff, but now I'm a little bigger (thanks uni) I can't always get away with it, and I find my baggy stuff so much comfier.
As you can see I've still managed to incorporate some of my favourite aspects into an outfit - lace and Lola Rose, as well as my new favourite H&M boots on (hi £15 in the sale) which are one of my best buys ever - I've only had them about a month and I haven't stopped wearing them. Although Arthur does like to run off with them in his mouth, so guessing he likes them too!

These nails are totally different for me. I got this bright orange coloured Misguided nail varnish free with Cosmo (?) this month, I deliberately searched for the orange as its totally different for me. This is three coats worth with one coat of Barry M glitter on the top and I love it, just think it's so summery (hint to weather) and so different yay!

So not much happening in life at the moment, just the usual stuff! Had my cousins wedding last weekend which was lovely and I'll pop the outfit on in a couple days. I wore my gorgeous new Dorothy Perkins Maxi and I can't wait to show it off. I'm also off to do the Race for Life this weekend eek! Haven't done any training which is bad but definitely going to give it a go! I'm doing it with Amber and Andra dressed as fairies (we are the Giggle Fairies) and we're running in memory of Amber's Nan :) we've raised quite a bit so far so am so proud and hope the weather holds out ! Wish me luck!

What's your slouchy 'summer' outfit? Wish me luck for Race for Life?

  3. You got to love a good slouchy laid back summer outfit! with the lack of summer we're having I'm probably wearing more casual clothes then usual for summer! my casual outfit is an oversized black tee with minimal graphic print with an array of comfy jeggings or shorts.

    As promised on twitter to pay a visit to your blog, I'm glad I got round to it finally!
