OOTD for the dullest day ever

Do you get frustated when you waste a perfectly good outfit on an extremely non-eventful day? I do. But I needn't fret, as that's what a blog's for.
So here is my OOTD, where I basically got ready and even photographed just to go to the dentist.How sad is that? I wasn't even actually seen by the dentist, I just accompanied Mr.Fish.
My favourite jeans were in the machine and I remembered about the cute dress I got in Bershka a while ago, before I came to Northern Ireland, and thought why not? Then I realized it was raining but it was too late by then. Which also meant the picture would have to be taken inside. So not even an interesting backdrop, but there you have it.





I'm afraid everything I'm wearing is from quite old collections so I won't even bother to do an outfit breakdown. I feel bad about wearing boots in June, but it was rather chilly!

Although I think it's rather nice, I was almost not going to post this as it was such a dull day - apart from the lovely Fish n' Chips dinner which I was too famished to even photograph.

On the other hand in these situations you can always think like this:

Leopard Print Skirt

Ebay has become my new best friend. I got this fantastic assimetrical maxi skirt a while ago for peanuts and decided to give it a whirl today. I wanted to celebrate the Jubilee in style but decided in the end the weather wasn't colaborating and changed to something more demure and cozy.
But are we going to waste a perfectly good outfit?
No we are not, we take pictures as an excuse to register the outfit combo for future reference. Or, as I did, make the boyfriend take the pictures and make him forget about something he'd left in the oven. The things we do for a blog post, tut tut.




I really want to pair this skirt with a nice light coloured vest paired with sandals or wedges.
That would make it a perfect beachy and relaxed look.
But for that I need to go shopping (and for that I need dosh, therefore a JOB, sob sob), so I decided to see how it looked with some peep toe heels and a quarter sleeve blouse, making it more of an evening look.

The skirt is from Ebay (link here!), the blouse is from Primark (last year's collection I think), shoes and jacket from Portugal and spike necklace from Ebay. (link here!). Cheap as chips this one, hey?

Slap-wise, this is just my "less is more" everyday make-up look, let me know if you want a breakdown on the products I use.

Hope you all have a fantastic, royal weekend!
