This is an early autumn outfit that I never quite got around to sharing until now. But I thought would be perfect for those of you in the Northern Hemisphere, wanting an easy outfit idea for spring.
Wearing Uniqlo mens Breton stripe top (old but similar womens style here); Isabel Marant wrap skirt (old but similar style here); Everlane 40 hour flats; Chanel vintage classic flap; Muru Jewellery sun pendant; Missoma marina bracelet; Missoma chain bracelet
When I first started my blog, and started to shift towards a more minimal colour palette, I was heavily inspired by Parisian style. Which I’m sure drove a lot of the rhetoric in my posts. I’d say this had a lot to do with reading Lessons from Madame Chic. Close to ten years later, I’m not quite as obsessed, but there’s definitely a Parisian bent to a lot of my outfits.
One thing I’ve been doing a lot more recently is shopping the men’s section. This Uniqlo striped top was a lucky find. It was in the clearance section, and ticked all the boxes for me. I liked that there is a white blocked off section at the collar, the hem and the ends of the sleeves; it’s a design detail that sets it apart from my other striped tees.
I’ve tucked it into a little mini skirt – a pre-loved find – and matched it with black accessories. My pointed toe flats from Everlane, which are on track to be one of my most worn items this season. And, the vintage Chanel classic flap I invested in at the start of the year. I’ve had a few questions about this bag, and do plan on doing a review and sharing a bit more about the purchase in the next few weeks.
