hat: new look
everything else: river island
This was a outfit that was meant to be featured on River Island, but due to time constraints and me sending it off too late they couldn't post it. Oh well! I wore this out for drinks last week, fully embracing the semi hooker look with the over the knee socks and heels (not pictured, but they were these ones, I couldn't walk, do do heels, ever!) I actually quite like the socks for some reason, I'm not really a knee high or socky person and I think it makes me look super short, however it sort of worked with the vibe I was aiming for!
Anyway I must dash! Tonight Im going out for Nandos and to see Thor, I've heard some good things about it so who knows if I'll like it or not. University work is going nowhere, I keep going round in circles hoping that inspiration will pop out or a project will come together completely. I'm starting printing my work on Monday! Eeep!
Ps. This is a scheduled post that didnt post, I thought Thor was quite good though!
Love this outfit! Just came back from the theatre and this look seems really Spring Awakening inspired to me... IN A GOOD WAY!

you look lovely! x
ReplyDeleteI like the bag and I am also quite drawn to those kind of socks even though I know what you mean by the hooker thing lol xxx looking lovely as usual Lily!
ReplyDeleteI love the socks and dress look!
ReplyDeleteLovely as always, Lily.
ReplyDeleteBlack and white works well on you. I'm in love with your eyebrows.

I really really REALLY like this outfit! The dress is really cool, I like all those peter pan collar dresses. I remember the one you got from ASOS which was the opposite colours to this one. I thought that one was great too.
ReplyDeleteAlso, I've really wanted this hat every since you first posted a look wearing it, but I've never seen it in my local New Look, and I didn't see it on the website :( Pretty bummed about that as I want a floppy hat that doesn't have massive rim and isn't really floppy lol.
I haven't seen Thor yet, probably won't get the chance :( You should go see Water for Elephants! The story is amazing (I think)
xx
Great outfit, I especially love the hat! Been looking for one just like it but everywhere I go at the minute they only have straw floppy hats. Maybe I'll have to wait for winter for a wool or felt one :(
ReplyDeletethis is the perfect outfit! i lovet it!!! really!!!
ReplyDeletethe dress is cool and the styling is amazing!

The socks really make the outfit;) And I have to admit I loved Thor, if only for the shirtless shots (I gasped out loud and my boyfriend elbowed me and said 'I heard that'.
ReplyDeleteThis is too perfect! I adore the peter pan collar and thigh highs...and of course, the black and white. So fantastic!
ReplyDeleteyou are really beautiful!

I love the monochrome look. Love the hat too :)
ReplyDeleteLovely outfit. I know what you mean about the hooker look but you could never look like a hooker, sometimes its the kind of girl in the clothes too and you dont look like a hooker at all! River Islands loss i think!

lovely. i wish i could wear knee highs. my thighs are to big lol
ReplyDeleteI love this outfit and while reading this post, I realized 3 things:
ReplyDelete1. I can't imagine you without ombre hair! Please keep it, it looks soo good on u!
2. I think you have one of the most beautiful names I know!
3. I am totally addicted to your blog! Never stop blogging! Ever.
And yes, Thor was awesome! Just watched it a second time. Epic in 3D. Although Chris Hemsworth might be one of the reasons... ^^

ReplyDeleteStunning outfit! You really can pull off anything, it makes me jealous... I especially love the floppy hat :)
ReplyDeleteGood luck with all your uni work too! xx
YOU HAVE MY BAG. Well sort of. I have the original, beigey coloured one which I completely adore, I've notcied that they've been producing it in loads of different colours and materials recently.
ReplyDeleteReally like the outfit and I know what you mean about the socks, I wouldn't have the confidence to wear them usually in fear of looking like a complete slag but they do go really well with the outfit and it still looks really classy. x
really nice dress :)
ReplyDeleteYeah, I think the socks give it a more interesting look than tights would fo sho.
ReplyDeleteAnd the hat just makes it perfect,

Such a sweet outfit Lily, the monochrome tones tone down the knee highs so its not too cutesy, defz not semi-hooker either hahaha (: Those heels though...! I would be possibly crawling, cannot walk in wooden-y heels ever! I thought Thor was really good too, except all those metallic sounds were a bit much at times? xx
ReplyDeletefor some reason I love the combination of high knee socks, hat and high heels! It's very boho and fun!
ReplyDeleteYou look great in that hat :)
ReplyDeleteI need to pluck up the courage to wear knee high socks outside of my house, haha.
ReplyDeletelooking gorgeous as per usual <3 love the socks, they kind of make the outfit
ReplyDeleteI really like the tigh high scoks, I've been rocking them for a while and plan to do so during the summer, and they look great on you, if the gap between whatever top you're wearing and the socks is a bit pronounced it actually makes you look taller, of course you might risk flashing someone if the wind decides to play up x3
ReplyDeleteAnyway the look is lovely, and the hat adds a nice touch to it.
Cute outfit, love the bag, River Island seem to be doing some pretty cool ones these days x
ReplyDeleteoutfit to die for!!! soks look so cute!!!! hat is gorgeous too.
ReplyDeleteSamantha Blonde x
I really like this outfit, you look lovely. Really like the long socks actually :D
ReplyDeleteThe socks look really awesome! I went to see Thor a couple of weeks ago, and I loved it! I've since read the graphic novel, which is equally as good if not better x
ReplyDeleteJust a Thought
love the socks, can just about see them! and the blazer is great too :)
ReplyDeleteYou look lovely! Really like this outfit, the socks are awesome. Def add a little extra something :) xx
ReplyDeletelove your hat!

Great look Lily! I got an e-mail from River Island today and got all excited when I saw your face on it :-)
ReplyDeleteI really like the knee high socks actually, but I know what you mean. They never really seem to be acceptable for me to wear out!
ReplyDeleteLove the blazer :)

Lovely look xx
ReplyDeleteI love knew high socks though getting them to stay up in a pain.
ReplyDeleteI went to see Thor a few weeks ago and was pretty impressed. It was predictable (as are most big budget films) but it was funny and the special effects were amazing! xx
Love the hat and the bag! Another great look, Lilly. x
ReplyDeleteLooks lovely. The monochrome looks a bit boy-ish, but the socks make it girlier.
ReplyDeletelove this look! in love with that bag!
ReplyDeleteyou look lovely!
