High point

DSC_5282

tee – H&M (last worn here)
skirt – Limited Collection @ Marks & Spencer (last worn here)
hi tops – River Island
sunglasses – Marks & Spencer
bangle – Biba, renegade cluster bracelet – Stella and Dot, bangle – handmade by a friend
leather bag, faux fur tail – Autograph @ Marks & Spencer, Thai market
trench – Gap

padded lead – Ancol, harness – Lupi
coat – model’s own

As promised here is my first look with the new hi tops – what do you think?

It’s a curious thing really; I prefer to style them on the smarter side with a tulip skirt but kept the sporty edge with my jersey tee. It’s all about balance I guess – to avoid looking like I belong in the skate park with the group of 12 year old boys (and that one old dude with long grey pigtails) I think they work best with something a little bit tailored or structured and minimal jewellery. This skirt does it for me here but I think they’d also work with the right dress… so long as there’s nothing neon (I am almost afraid of the 80’s – no doubt my least favourite decade for fashion and ironically the one I was born in). I’ll experiment some more and get back to you!

Any ideas how I should style them next?

    I say YAY to your new platform sneakers! I’ve seen a red version from Marc Jacobs that have left me miles away from unmoved. ;) After your take on the trend, I might just succumb! :)

    • Wendy Posted 24 May at 9:11 pm

      ah, it is funny when this happens right?! I bet you have some in a couple of weeks (and they are sooo comfy!) ♥

    Very nice! I think they would also work well with skinny jeans. Enjoy the sunny weather. x

    • Wendy Posted 24 May at 9:11 pm

      I will try that next maybe, thanks for the idea!x
