[Shirt -Joy, Jeans - Topshop, Leopard print pumps - Vintage]Send me to fashion hell; I wore black and brown together this week! I bought this shirt for £5 in a sale at JOY (which has shut down now, another victim of the recession) last year and I love the piping, and the way the sleeves pouf out at the elbows =]. I wore it for a cinema date with the boy (Go see District 9 everyone!). I hadn't noticed how grey the sky & lake (which you have to cross to get to the cinema) look together until now, haha.
I have just moved into the boy's house for a few months. His dad moved to Vancouver two years ago on a professorship at Simon Fraser uni, and his Mam has gone to join him over there on a part-time professorship (I'm so jealous of them, I love Vancouver!). They will be back for a few months at Christmas, but until then I have moved in to keep him and Alfie dog company =]. We had a "house warming" party last night, which was lots of fun!

P.S My flickr account was full so I moved to Photobucket and I'm rather liking the image sizes!
I love black and brown together - and you pull it off flawlessy!
ReplyDeleteI am having issues with my Flickr account. Do you like Photobucket better? Recommend that I switch?

great colors, complements your hair!
ReplyDeletejess s//
the brown is amazing on you!
ReplyDeleteI actually like the the brown with the black, it's a light brown and so they are not too close in color :)
ReplyDeleteI like the shirt a lot!
Great shirt!
ReplyDeleteXoXo
I think black and brown can make a perfect match! These "fashion rules" are just stupid!
ReplyDeleteHurrah! The war shirt! Is this the first time you've worn it? It looks good! I have to hop everywhere. If I have to hop around NY, my left leg will be so toned! Don't let me drink at one of your parties again please. It would have been better if I'd gone out so I couldn't afford to drink! Haha xxx
ReplyDeleteBlack and brown don't always look off. You rock this look. :)

block and brown look great together! that rule is stupid ;p
ReplyDeleteRules are meant to be broken!!!! haha
ok, but seriously I am loving that top! I fall for anything the slightest bit peasant inspired.
Thanks everyone!
ReplyDeletePrettyneons - Ooh err, that doesn't sound good, I'm glad you can read it again =D!
I love love mixing black and brown! especially that shade, which is perfection for the said mix ! :D
ReplyDeleteyes. women after my own heart, I love when people wear brown and black together. It's totally archaic to think that they can't go together. Nice styling! Oh, yeah, thanks for the comment on my blog, I'm now following your blog. you've got great style girl :)
ReplyDeletepeace
You have the most fantastic hair ever, it looks so good!
ReplyDeletethe top is lovely. delicate, but not too much so. really liking the blog!
ReplyDeleteI always end up inappropriately dressed! for some reason my window always faces the wrong sort of weather and tricks me into wear too many/little clothes haha. i can't believe JOY has closed down!!!! very sad :( xoxo
ReplyDeleteOH my GOODNESS, you live in southport!?! sorry - thats where i live when im not at uni, i saw the marine lake and was like woooaahhhhhh i live in a town with a lake just like that!
ReplyDeleteoh and i love your hair colour
