All Saints Cat Eye Sunglasses / Moxham Anubis Necklace / Staple Tank Dress / Finsk Wedges / Balenciaga City Bag

We finally got a little peek of Summer this week, it was unbelievably hot & sticky, however a few days later & we are back to dull, dreary days. For the entire few days the sun shone, I was ill, stuck inside with a chest infection & pretty much as soon as it went back to behaving like September, I felt back to normal! Well, normal except for a puffy, swollen face, hence the sunglasses & moody expression! So, this is kinda my ‘I feel like death’ outfit, basic & most importantly super comfortable dress + a few statement pieces that always make me feel better when I’m wearing them. I’m not exactly a sun worshiper, as is probably extremely obvious from my pasty white tan, but there’s no denying that days are so much more enjoyable when the sun’s out, even if I am slathered in factor 50… I’m still clinging onto my tights though, I couldn’t face exposing others to my transparent legs until they’ve had at least a little bit of sun!

I’ve been wearing my Moxham Anubis necklace with almost everything recently, it’s become my new COS belt, one of those items you can’t stop wearing because you can just chuck it on over anything & instantly feel confident & put together. Absolutely every outfit seems to look better with it added, when I’m not wearing it I can’t help but feel like my outfit’s missing something, that finishing touch. I guess that’s a surefire sign I need to treat myself to some more & fast!

I’m a little like that with my Finsk shoes too, once I realized how comfortable they were I couldn’t stop at just one pair & now I have a whole shelf of them! The way they complete an outfit & can make even the most basic look quite statement with the addition of a pair is far too addictive. Plus, they make me smile & give me a bit of a spring in my step when I’m wearing them, exactly what I needed for a day like today!
