a bit lady like

Suede flats: Zara. Dress: H&M. Satchel: Coach (thrift/vintage). Shades: Ray Ban. Rings: Gifts. Lips: MAC 'RED.' Silly band (Mine's in a shape of a microphone. Some random info for you).
The whole retro mod feel of the 60's is such a brilliant look. I like it edged a bit with messy hair, aviators and some eyeliner.
I hate structure but this vintage Coach satchel I got months ago is the dog's bollocks.
All the mags and runways are showing the designer 'minimal bag' but I'll stick with vintage thanks. I like wearing it this way too. Now if I could just find one in a whiskey brown colour....
ps. I wore these Isabel Marant-esq flats right out of Zara when I bought them.

  8. loving how lady-like this is. You most certainly know how to rock the pointed toe flat. I've yet to succeed in making that modern. Your look is amazingly chic.

  12. absolutely love your take on the lady like trend. the red accessories are so perfect with that polka dot dress. absolutely love this outfit... it's the kind of look that could appear frumpy on the wrong person and shows that attitude and the way you wear something really makes an outfit. xx
