Boyfriend snapped a few photos of me while we were getting ready to meet some friends on Saturday night. The lighting in my room and the candid snaps made these feel a bit fuzzy and nostalgic looking. I cleaned them up a bit in Photoshop to show off the true colour of the outfit, but maybe I should have left more of the sepia tone! :) I love going out on Friday or Saturday night (or working from home) so I can pick from my less formal collection of clothing. My workplace is super laid back about the dress code, so I can wear all the fun Anthro pieces I want, but still, I'm not going to show up in party dresses. I fell in love with a lot of British high street fashion while I
lived in England. That style is a bit more youthful and party orientated than what I wear for my working life. I still indulge in a few "going out" pieces from my favourite UK retailers now and again. Lipgloss;

What a lovely mix of soft pink colors in this outfit! You look delightful. And oh, how I miss highstreet retailers. I have 2 Topshop and M&S orders I'm dying to make but the shipping here is killing me.
ReplyDeleteOh M&S is so good. I still miss browsing their comfortable but cute shoes! And Topshop I miss like old friend.
ReplyDeleteWhat are you thinking of ordering?
Wow, your hair is just gorgeous! Out of curiousity (having never been to Britain), what is Britain high fashion like? Could you point me toward a few designers?
ReplyDeleteAlso, I found you through Anthroholic's reader outfits post!
