L I M E.

Jacket; Striking. Jeans; Kmart (Alternative here). Blouse; Unlabeled (Alternative here) Knuckle rings; Sportsgirl. Gold Ring; Isla Stone. Shoes; Therapy

Call me immature but whenever I wear these pants I can't help but walk around singing 'You put the lime in the coconut and drink it all up...', this really isn't helped when I'm wearing white on top, only adding to the general coconut vibe and making me dream of days spent lounging around on a beach in the tropics. I actually got into an argument, I mean yelling and throwing stuff, this morning about whether or not you should wear colour in winter (which by the way you totally should). I argued that as long as you're warm then what does bright colour have to do with it, my opposition deemed bright colours 'inappropriate' for winter. So because I am a spiteful teenager, I of course pulled out the brightest, most obnoxious pair of pants I could find in my house and wore them all day long. I always find that things done from spite never end well but this outfit has to be one of my favourites. I think this coat, which doubles as a snood, sets off the tropical vibe of the pants perfectly and makes it definitely 'Winter Appropriate', proving that sometimes mother doesn't always know best. What I lack in life experience I make up for with my awesome dress sense and general charm.
I'm not sure if you guys have picked it up but I have definitely been approaching writing posts differently. After coming to the startling conclusion that I don't have a boss and therefore no one to please except myself I realised I can be snide and sarcastic if I want to, leave the serious writing for runway reviews and making plans for the inevitable zombie apocalypse. I do hope you're enjoying seeing a different and frankly more me style of writing, and if you don't well...frankly my dear I don't give a damn. (10 points to whoever knows where that quote is from)

  1. GONE WITH THE WIND!

    I like the lime Laura :) I haven't noticed a change in the writing of posts, but then again I am a relatively new reader. I enjoyed your mbfwa posts though, I think you can balance the serious posts with being yourself. Susie Bubble is my main inspiration for style of writing x

  4. I love love love these jeans. Haha, I think you can totally wear bright colours even in the winter. Especially when you live somewhere with mild winters! I know I feel like when there's snow on the ground I need to wear black but man, I wish I could get out of that rut sometimes!

    1. While we may not get snow we do get frosts, and it always gets really, really windy here as well.
