The title of this blog post is quite ept. I
hardly ever wear anything other than a great dress. I live in dresses and to
some, it may seem boring, but to be frank, I don’t care; dresses are my style
and I’m unapologetic about it (because surely that’s what a personal blog
should be about?!).
However, I do like to break from my nom on
occasion, and this outfit post is one of those occasions. I went to dinner a
couple nights ago with the ever lovely, Hanna. We headed to a lovely Italian
restaurant and ate like the little piglets we are ;p.
I found this skirt while looking through
the Next online sale earlier this year. It’s something I would never normally
wear because it’s hardly shy and retiring, but I thought it was really great
and I loved the colours. Next is known for being quite pricy, but I got this
skirt for £8! Total bargain. With skirts of this nature, it would be the norm
to pair it with a black top, but I didn’t want to do that; so I paired the
skirt with burgundy. The top is very light and isn’t too strong a colour to
take the focus away from the skirt – I really like this look.
NB: I’ve decided that looking down is the
way I like to pose at the moment. I’m not really photogenic, which doesn’t
particularly bother me, but finding a pose to suit and one which makes me feel
comfortable, is key with a blog like this – I’ve found mine….for now. Also, thanks to Hanna for taking my pics! :)

Side note: I’ve been doing my regular M.I.A thing with
social network – Twitter, Facebook and the like, are not on my agenda
currently. I like to take a few days, or sometimes a week or so just to assess
things without looking at these things. I know it’s not for everyone, but I
like my sanity and a break is what I need (other than posting about this blog
post, obvs!). I’m sure I’ll be back on it properly, next week….at some point.
Hope you’re all well - ‘til next time folks
:)
