tunic: forever 21
leggings: H&M
cardigan: primark
necklace: zara taylor
This a total comfort dressing kinda outfit, I know its basic, and I know its nothing radical either. But theres something about a big cardigan and a simple dress that is so irresistibly easy and cute. I like to dress simply, I think sometimes people over dress with the patterns and different styles, the best outfits are always the ones that are totally understated.Today I'm just wearing a tunic from Forever 21, Its a really intresting bright blue colour, Id describe it as peacock blue or even petrol blue as its quite dark yet vivid at the same time. Its totally different from anything on the highstreet at the moment which is why I was probably drawn to it! Forever 21 is now avaible online if you wanted to go check it out. Personally I think despite loving Forever 21 from a far it has been a slight disappointment, I love their basics, but nothing particularly stands out in my eyes, which is a shame because I'd be coveting it for so long. The prices seem a little jacked up compared to the US as well. Id recommend checking the jewelery and knitwear out though, they really excelled in that!
Im working till 8 today,
Thanks for all your help on yesterdays post! I've checked most of the links out and will report back on Sunday which were my favourite from the bunch!

ahh your hair always has like the best "perfectly messy" look! i love it
ReplyDeleteYou look like a rock star as always - so cute Lily!
ReplyDeleteYou look beautiful!

You know im a real lover of comfy outfits! So this is lovely in my eyes!
ReplyDeleteTotally LOL at your video too! :)
Public transport sucks, it depresses me. Least you have a car, i have to do this every week! haha xo
FITTIE!! I agree about F21. Maybe get a workout dvd if you're worried? Are you only staying one night in Cardiff? xx
ReplyDeleteI agree (: I love simple outfits. Cute necklace too :D
ReplyDeleteLove that outfit, a simple dress and a cosy knit always reminds me of the 1940's landgirl look for some reason.
ReplyDeleteLove the outfit, it's well cute.
ReplyDeleteI really love your necklace.
xx
I love your style and want know this: how make you your makeup and your hair? kisses you
ReplyDeleteLove the colour of that! I agree simple outfits are so lovely
ReplyDeleteThat dress is a gorgeous colour. I'm loving the thick knit cardigan too. It's so cold lately that I just dress for warmth.
ReplyDeleteIn my old gym you couldnt just quit whenever you wanted and get your money back, you had to pay for the year. & It cost 20 euro everytime you went if you werent a member! Anyway, love the outfit. I love big comfy cardigans :)
ReplyDeletethe bits you've got from f21 are gorgeous- I'm not feeling it online though. Hopefully will be going to the store some point (fairly) soon.
ReplyDeleteLove this outfit, the colour of the dress is lovely, looks more greeny in the video
Beauitful as ever xx
I love this, it reminds me of all the cute casual outfits you posted in the Summer but obviously more Wintery haha :) xo
ReplyDeletelooking gorgeous, keep the ootds coming :)! xxx
ReplyDeleteyou look stunning here :)!
ReplyDeletei really like this outfit!
ReplyDeleteI wear an outfit like this practically every day haha! It's so cosy and minimalistic while being slightly interesting too :)
ReplyDeleteYou're seriously gorgeous Lily and you've inspired me to joing the gym :D xxx
I love your outfit its so pretty yet still comfortable! I too was disappointed with Forever 21 launching over here, I like their clothes but it works out cheaper to order from their site & pay import taxes!

That's such a bummer about Forever21. Honestly I find that the inventory varies A LOT depending on what store you're in. I live in New York and Forever21s are everywhere and within one week I'll visit several different Forever21s. In one store I'll have handfuls of things I absolutely love and in another store I'll walk out with nada. It really depends. That suckssss though that they raised the prices!! Boo.
ReplyDeleteyour hair is always so fab! i have been dying to join a gym not necessarily to lose weight but just to feel healthier as at the moment i do zero exercise, i just have no time. apparently the davina mccall home workout dvd is really really good, so maybe you could do something like that instead? xx
ReplyDeleteI like your cardigan.. :)
ReplyDeleteDress and cardi = simple, understated and totally rad.
ReplyDeleteThis is my kind of outfit.
I bought a massive thick cardi from h&m last weekend and i'm in love, it's like wearing a blanket outside yet socially acceptable! x
ReplyDeletelove the necklace. I bought a cardi from h n m with a hood, and I wear it with nearly everything, so comfy xx
ReplyDeleteyou look great! I love the colour of that top! & i've wanted a cardigan like that but all the ones I find in primark have a weird texture that goes through me. oh well. Kx
ReplyDeletei know what you mean about forever 21, i feel exactly the same. I'm so used to seeing clothes from forever21 on the american blogs and loving them, but I've not found anything that stands out here so far
ReplyDeleteI find myself reaching for simple outfits recently too, the stupidly cold weather just isn't ideal to inspire for new outfits! Love the colour of your tunic, I couldn't find anything 'amazing' on the F21 website other than rings, of which I am planning to order many of ;)
ReplyDeleteThat colour looks lovely on you, great dress and I want your cardigan! x

I agree with your comment on F21, It's widely shopped by girls in the US. Over the years the quality of the fabric they use has gone down dramatically, they used to have the best styles too :/
ReplyDeleteI just discover your blog,
ReplyDeleteI love it !!
xx
you look so warm!

I really like this outfit on you..And I agree with what you said about F21 I am always disappointed when I visit their store!
ReplyDeleteI'm sort of in love with this outfit... I've been a big fan of stylish comfort recently.

ReplyDeleteI like your outfit and you´re right simpler is often the better choice :)then you can´t do much wrong :D
ReplyDeleteyou look stunning! This outfit looks so good on you, I'm in love with that dress. I really want to go to the gym at least 2 or 3 times a week, but I can't fit it as well! Hope we won't win the miss fatty next year hehe (:
ReplyDeletePS. Your blog is my biggest inspiration, you always makes me smile!
I love your hair colour. tres cool.
ReplyDeletex
i love your necklace!!
ReplyDeleteMy gym is also £5 a pop - what is that all about eh?! I would quit and then rejoin, if I knew I was really too busy to go one month but they charge a sneaky £20 joining fee. Bandits! Looking lovely as ever miss, I hardly ever comment but I am a loyal follower and tend to just admire from a far! :p Need to check the f21 site out for sure xx
ReplyDeleteso beautiful :)
ReplyDeletelove your hair and style...
I pretty much wore the same outfit yesterday - how snuggly is the Primark cardi? I wear mine alllll the time! Hope you get your car sorted soon - leaving two hours before you start work sounds awful!
ReplyDeleteSally x
I absolutely love the colour of that top, I'm really drawn to bright blue and green right now! I hate public transport too!! I have to leave my house at 7:30am for college but dont start till 9 30!! I finish at 3 30 but dont get home till 6!! Nightmare! I'm sure you wont put all the weight back on! I'm still trying to lose mine, its a long and frustrating process! grrrr xxx
ReplyDeleteyou are simply amazing!
ReplyDeletesometimes simple is better!
