Outfit – Statement Pieces

     I wasn’t a checked shirt person for a very long time, but I’ve now been fully converted after realising how comfortable they are! This is my only one at the moment, but I like mixing it into to different outfits; casual doesn’t have to look lazy! I tend to wear it hanging open most of the time, so a simple black vest is ideal for underneath. I chose this skirt because I love the contrast of the purple with the green. It also has pockets, which is a massive win for a skirt or dress! I also like the contrast of the plain skirt with the patterns of the shirt and tights. Finally, I’ve gone for some chunky statement jewellery, which stands out against the dark colours, and jazzes up an otherwise fairly casual outfit. The necklace was actually reduced because there’s a stone missing on it, which I may try to replace somehow, but for now I’ve painted over the metal background with nail polish that matches the other stones. How do you think I did?
