Mermaid Dreaming

One thing I love about clothes is how versatile they are, I'll often buy things thinking I could wear it with this, this and this – getting more bang for my buck, as it were. This skirt is one of those items, I bought it when ASOS had money off (when don't they?), as it's suede it was a bit on the pricey side – but I ended up paying about £40 instead of £55 – woop! It's a statement piece you could wear on a night out (though be careful, it is suede after all), a day out with your friends or I've actually worn this to work and got a lot of compliments. I think the colour plays a part in making this skirt so great and a real talking point – they do have it in the typical Autumn burgundy colour, and I was temped to play it safe but this turquoise mermaid-y colour really caught my eye. I love it!

I added some glitz to this outfit, ready for Christmas of course, with this rollneck thin jumper from Primark which was a recent purchase. I thought it was going to be a bit itchy and annoy me around the neck, but nope, nothing at all! This fluffy bag was also from a recent Primark trip and I knew I had to have it as soon as I saw it – fluff? gold hardware? and the perfect size for those night out essentials? It's my new 'going out out' bag and I can't wait to show it off around Christmas time!
