Nostalgia











At first glance this outfit looks like a little bit of a mish-mash! However, take your time and it actually kind of works to create a boyish look with a bit of an edge.

I chose the top as I remember how much I loved layering long & short sleeved tops 'Im a skater girl' phase & thought 'if i could make it work then, then i'm sure as hell gunna bring it back and try and make it work now!', ooohh the nostalgia (hence the title of this post).

Im a huge dungaree fan, I really don't wear them enough, i'm dying to get my hands on a pair of full length ones, so if you know of any, comment the links below!! 
Anyway, i thought I would pair the top with the dungarees to keep in with the whole nostalgic 'skater' kind of vibe I was going for. I really like the colour of these ones, perfect for the summer!

I wanted to make the outfit a little 'modern' (can i say that?) as opposed to looking like I was still living in the year 2000. I paired it with these Givenchy dupe boots and my leather jacket to add a bit of a biker-esque edge to the outfit. 
If the top didn't have the striped sleeves then i'm not so sure the boots and leather jacket would have worked as well, so keep that in mind. If your wearing a cutesy girly top under your dungarees, strong leather boots or too much black leather in general, will probably look too harsh!

I really like this look, its pretty simple and easy to throw on.

What do you think?
