Daily outfit: 3/7/2012

bohemian, friends, presents, purple, rings, skirts, vintage

It’s very rare that I wear a bunch of brand-new things all at once. It’s actually rare that I have a bunch of all-new things, because I’m trying to limit my clothes buying a bit. However, seeing as how I just had a birthday, I do have a lot of lovely pressies about, waiting to be worn. During the week, I found a couple of gorgeous items on sale, which I just couldn’t pass up. This skirt is one of them.

I am wearing:

- Cat’s-eye glasses from Clearly Contacts.

- Black bodysuit from Remember Me

- Denim vest from Cotton On

- Purple chevron skirt from Target

- Pendant (gift from Sam)

- Vintage filigree belt (gift from Adam)

- Brown leather boots (thrifted)

- Beetle ring (gift from my parents)

- Amethyst ring

- Gold butterfly ring

- Emerald ring (was my grandmothers)

- Owl ring from Diva

I saw this skirt a month or two ago, but I thought that it was a bit too pricey at the time. Last Wednesday night, it had been reduced to just $10.80, so I snapped it up. I really love the colours in it. It’s a really light fabric too, which feels gorgeous to wear.

This vintage belt was a birthday gift from one of my best friends. It used to belong to his grandmother, who passed away eight years ago (on my eighteenth birthday, no less). He found it a couple of weeks ago, I decided that I was the best person to give it to, because I would actually wear it. I adore the sparrow motif. I plan on getting a lot of wear out of this.

This pendant was a gift from my lovely friend and ex-housemate Sam. When it arrived in the mail, I was ecstatic. It is exactly my style. Sam has a way of picking out the perfect jewellery as gifts.
