Cardigan: Primarks Menswear, Dress: clothes swap, Leggings: asos, Shoes: Converse All-Stars
This feels a little like a non-outfit, just clothes to lounge about in feeling a bit under the weather, but the fact that I'm wearing leggings AND a cardigan inside for the first time since summer started is on the exciting side to someone who prefers layering properly than the awkward somewhere between the two seasons where it's too cold for shorts and t-shirts and too warm for, well, this.
My best friend and I are currently wardrobe-sorting and clothes-swapping, which is how I gained this dress. She's getting my v-necked jumpers from my preppy days, and in return I got several items in this colour, although she still has plenty of them. Isn't it odd that we all gravitate towards certain colours? We used to swap bank cards and make pacts not to buy certain colours in an effort to try and diversify, but it hasn't ever seemed to stick.
Even though this is, with the dress, a 'girly' outfit, for some reason it feels a little tomboy-esque, which is why I opted for my oft-neglected Converses to traipse up and down pavements in the rain, feeling a million miles away from my summer of nothing already.
Also (I appear to be in a rambling mood today), this is one the highlights of Radio 1's Live Lounge covers recently (they're running a live lounge a day through September). It's an excellent song to begin with, but this is a really amazing version of it.
