I have absolutely worn this outfit to death this week. When I finalised plans to go to the London meet and HPM social this week I was faced with the horrendous prospect of having absolutely nothing to wear, despite the wardrobe of clothes screaming out at me in my room. After spotting this skirt online and hot footing it into town, I breathed a sigh of relief as I bought the last one of these skirts on the 'last chance to buy' rail of hell. It hasn't shown up on photos but its a sheer material over a jersey mini skirt, which I thought was unusual and a bit edgy. It was a size 16 but I used my handy skills and sewed it up quite neatly to fit me really well at around a 10, (and then I covered up some messy hems with the baggy tshirt - top tip for tramps like me).

Ive never worn a maxi skirt before, and not really sure I'd get another one, but there's something about the sheer material over the jersey skirt that I really like, and I find quite flattering. Plus it means that you can get away with not shaving your legs, result! I think this is quickly becoming a total favourite and go-to item of clothing for me, as its really easy to dress both up and down. Brightened up the monotone too with some neon pink polish with accent ying-yang nails, which you'll see in my next outfit post! 

Had a super nice evening with Sean last night, I havent seen him for a week or so because he went home to see his poorly cat, so we celebrated with treating ourselves to a Dominos, nom nom nom. Bit naughty when we're on a student budget but Tuesdays are always slightly more acceptable cause they have some really good pizza offers on!
