We Wear: No pants day


Indoor outfit pictures are a rarity on the blog, mostly because yugh lighting and ferociously abstaining from using the flash. But the weather this Sunday was just too awful to face it without packing myself in a rain coat and something to keep me from blowing away, which wouldn't make too much of an outfit. Or actually it would, I can imagine some of you out there wanting to witness that. But no, I wanted to wear this outfit - which gives the illusion I'm not wearing any bottoms. Not to worry, I am wearing a skirt, it's just hiding under the large amount of oversizedness that is just too awesome and cool to not let it predominate the entire outfit. 







The sweater was actually a total misbuy, caused by my emerging aversion from fitting rooms on a Saturday in town. I just grabbed it in a size L without thinking too much, cause I like my things loose, breezy and oversized. But this particular sweater was already designed to be highly oversized, hence buying it in an L made it pretty much something like a blanket. I was going to exchange it for a size down, but I couldn't find it anymore and I absolutely adored the olive colour so the uber oversized thing that is this sweater was kept by my side. And then I wore it and couldn't be happier that I didn't take it back to the store! All's well that ends well! 

Also, check out the first glimpse of my apartment, which is by far not finished that but I'm getting there. One (extremely) slow box at a time. Thank god I'm not wasting any time in fitting rooms on Saturdays when it feels like the entire world is out shopping.

We wear: Cropped top


So where do we stand on crop tops? And by 'we' I mean you, our dearest readers, as I believe my opinion is pretty obvious. I absolutely love them and think my summer wardrobe should have MORE CROP TOPS. It's kind of becoming my mantra these days. I feel like they spice up every single outfit and just get me floating on a summer breeze by just thinking about wearing them. However, seemingly not everybody is as fond of them as I am. I mean, yes, a crop top can possibly show off a lot of skin that is under normal circumstances hidden. Notice the keyword being 'possibly', as in 'not necessarily' as yours truly exhibits in these pictures. I think it's rather subtle, no? And even if girls decide to wear them in a way where their belly button is showing, I can only applaud that they have built up enough confidence and have the guts (or lack thereof) to wear them that way. I do not however, so I'll stick with offering the world just a glance at my diaphragm. 

Denim jacket: Primark - Pleather skirt: Boohoo - Crop top, shoes: H&M - Necklace: Claire's 



 




 


Excuse me for the slight rant, I have been reading up on some articles about girl's body shaming and it infuriated me deeply. In addition, I've been writing and writing my PhD dissertation (due date is this month, hmpff) and I kind of feel my head is clouded and I'm overthinking  EVERYTHING. 

PS: Told you so that this denim jacket would make a reappearance on the blog soon. 


 Currently listening to:
All kinds of 'Go go go, you are the best, you can do it' music.
Currently craving for (fashion wise or other):
Sleep. Precious, relaxing sleep.
