What Milly Wore: Wonder Woman


 

Here is an outfit that a wore last week, whilst trying to dress a bit more self-confidantly :)
I Wore:

Navy Cardigan: Topshop
bought last year, definitely a staple of my wardrobe

Stars & Stripes American Flag Body: ASOS 
Love this, it was in the sale a month or so ago, I think its gone now
Wonder Woman Style Leather Belt: Vintage £4 ish
I bought this belt at least 4 years ago, I just couldnt resist,
Its lovely real leather
but unfortunately now its a little on the small side

American Flag Shorts: Topshop
You've seen me wear them before on the blog, just really easy to wear
they weren't cheap, but I think they were worth it!

Leggings: Primark £3
Seriously THE best leggings I have even bought,
they come up really high on the waist which I love, 
no rolling or falling down all the time
I'm deffo going back for another pair!
White Studded Pumps: River Island £5
I got these in pink and in white last year,
just as an add on to an online order as they were so cheap
I'd never actually worn them before (no idea why)
But I've had a sore foot and with socks they've been the comfiest shoes I own!

Lipstick: Mac Wonder Woman Collection 'Russian Red'
It had to be done :)

What do you guys think?
I know It's a little out there,
but I'm trying to make an effort to not care what passers by think,
about my fashion sense, or the fact I'm not a skinny minnie!

What Milly Wore: Shorts & Wedges

*excuse the squinty face, I need to work out how to stop myself doing that!

I'm not gonna lie to you,
when I left the house wearing this outfit, I thought I looked pretty damn good!
However, my boyfriend was not so keen,
and looking at the pictures, I agree with him I don't look quite as I had pictured in my head.
Why brain do you fool me so??

Leather Waistcoat: New Look, at least 4 years ago if not longer
I also have this waistcoat in brow, both real leather
and they couldn't have cost me more than £10 each!
I couldn't do it up as I'm much bigger now than when I bought it
however with the use of a hair bobble I managed to keep it closed which looked much better

Plain Black T-shirt: New Look

Aztec Print Shorts: New Look
No idea why I'm wearing so much New Look at once!
Love these shorts, great aztec pattern ( had to get a 16 to fit round my butt, boo)
If anything a bit too short, but I still love them

Black Bag With Horse Buckle: Miss Selfridge

Sabre Skull Necklace: Galibardy

Black 'slimming' tights: Primark
actually quite impressed with these tights,
they were £3 and although I don't think they are particularly slimming,
I did feel well held in, without being restricted
and they didn't fall down and were quite comfy

Burgundy Suede 'Ruby Tuesday'  Wedge boots: Clarks Originals
First time I've worn them
and I really like them... a whole lot
but I am not used to walking in any kind of heel at all
must practice more!

What Milly Wore: Tan Leather & High Waisted Shorts

 

Firstly, I have no idea why my head is at that funny angle ( I do apologise )
This is what I wore a couple of days ago

Oversized Sunglasses: £6 Next Sale

Grey Military T-shirt: Zara (last year)
High Waisted Denim Shorts: New Look (this season)
 These are my new absolute faves, I love to wear them
and they are so versatile!

Black Leggings: Topshop

Tan Leather Loafers: Office (this season)
Tan Leather Plaited Belt: £8 Next Sale
What I really like is that you can do this belt up anywhere along the length,
so you can wear it on your hips, or waist without it looking odd



Tan Leather Bag: Vintage £3

What Milly Wore: Le Freak C'est Chic



 Here is what I wore the other day:
Le Freak C'est Chic T-shirt: Wildfox Couture £20 Sale (cant remember which website)
Black Ski Pant Leggings: Topshop (Old)


Red Deck Shoes: Moshulu £12.50 Sale
American Flag Shorts: Topshop £34

I decided to keep the shorts in the end, I'd just seen them on a lot of lovely slim bloggers,
and felt fat and frumpy in them.
But once I stopped worrying about what other people look like,
I found I really like them and so what if I had to get a size 16!

 
Galaxy Print Bag: Peter Pilotto for Kipling

I seriously love galaxy print,
far far too much!
I'm going to do a post on all the galaxy print things I own,
but I'm waiting on a special little parcel first ;)
Wishbone, Claw and Bone Necklaces: All by Fashionology NL

Seriously the best, most unique online shop ever!
Although it's not in the UK, the prices and posting are reasonable.

Fashion Fix: New Arrivals - Maxi Skirts and Americana

Well Uni is very nearly over, 
all hand ins over with,
all work being marked!
Just the Exhibition to be taken down tomorrow
Phew
If any of you guys follow me on twitter you will know I had one of my wisdom teeth taken out a couple of days ago (Sorry It's all I've been tweeting about!)
But I'm starting to feel better,
and need to get back in the swing of things,
Including blogging!
So Here's what I've bought recently:




 
Pleated Maxi Skirt: £51 American Apparel 



Sheer Maxi Skirt : £52 American Apparel



Huge Lipstick Pendant: Danielle Scutt for Topshop £16.50
American Flag Shorts: £34 Topshop
Both the skirts are lovely, kinda expensive but I did have a 25% off code at the time so that softened the blow. I've been after some floaty maxi / midi skirts for a while, inspired by other bloggers like A Little Bird Told Me , Cheap Thrills , ColorMeNana , and BowDreamNation

I love the Lipstick Necklace, It's so awesome, like a weapon! you should really check out the rest of the range, Danielle Scutts designs are incredible and much more affordable from the topshop concession!

And onto the Americana shorts I really like them I do, bit I think I'm going to have to send them back, they would look awesome on other people, but they are just to short for me, even with tights or leggings underneath!

Oh well! Expect more posts soon, and another Clothes Twins post with Hannah next week
