Coat – Topshop
Tights – Zara
Skirt, belt, bag and shoes – thrifted
Top – vintage (a gift from Ian)
University doesn’t often present situations for fancy dressing (fancy dress on the other hand…), but sometimes I just want to. I thrifted these snake print shoes last term, and I’m still undecided on them. They are so 90s, with the slightly square toe and clunky heel. Actually, they’re kind of hideous, but I think I kind of love them. What do you think?
P.S. While I remember, I somehow got long-listed for the Company Style Blogger Awards, under the ‘We Love Vintage’ category. While it would be nice to make it to the shortlist, I very much doubt that I’d be able to make it to the awards ceremony in March (because of university commitments). That being said, there are lots of other wonderful bloggers in that category, such as Cait and Sally, so I recommend that you go vote for them!

I love the palette of this outfit – the rich color of the tights compliments the shirt and skirt so well! The shoes are a great finishing touch.
Hideous? I think not. They are fantastic and lovely and all those delicious things! lol
But I understand what you mean, bout school campuses not being the perfect setting for dressing up. I say, let’s dress up anyway!
Cheeeers
The bag is very nice! And also the skirt!
you pull off those shoes with ease! The whole outfit is dreamy.
Love the outfit and the shoes look great! Absolutely nothing wrong with them! You look lovely :) Amy did a good job, too :)
Oh I love them! Especially with the gorgeous tights, what a pretty combination. x

I love your shoes too!
Simply lovely. Love all the pairing done here.
I love the shoes! Paired with the dress, the tights, the coat… perfect. I need to wear heels more…
wonderful photos! Amy did super well :) love that old cemetery
You’re right about university lacking occasions for fancy dressing!
This outfit is so well put together. Lovelove the photos altogether; the graveyard was an interesting backdrop!
Those shoes are adorable, and judging by your hands it was very cold!
So. Very. Cold.
I think the shoes look great here. You’ve done a convincing job of styling them, that’s for sure. Lovely!
love how you pair all these different colours and patterns together. wonderfully done.
Ohh, fancy dressing is such a treat! I am completely besotted with your skirt – the pleats are a dream! And such a dreamy location too; the overgrown moss looks incredible!

Very lovely! The cream colors are so beautiful and that skirt was a great thrift find!
oh, i think you’re beautiful as always hannah
You are so perfect, I should go live in a hole. The shoes are transcendent!
I love your shoes! They look perfect with your tights! <3
I love your lace top and the shoes are nice too!
I can’t believe those are thrifted shoes!! They are impeccable and they are so beautiful! Love this outfit, so feminine and gorgeous, and the photos are superb! :D
The skirt is so pretty and floaty, and goes so well with the ginger colour of your tights! Really pretty look :)
Such a pretty outfit! And when my brother came back for Christmas, he’d somehow managed to wear fancy dress a lot. I recall Bodger & Badger, cutting a mullet for one party, dressing up as an elf, an ugly Christmas jumper and a monkey being mentioned.
You’re so beautiful here, the shoes absolutely yes!
i rarely do like snakeprinted stufff, but these looks so lovely on you. And they thriftes too? what a bargain!
These pictures are so beautiful! I really like the setting too, love old graveyards! And man, your hair, it’s so pretty ;)
Have a lovely sunday
You should definitely keep and love those shoes, they look amazing! ^^

i love your quirky style but i have to say my favourite thing is probably your hair! i think pretty hair just really brings together an outfit and your laid back hair really just adds the perfect finishing touch to your amazing outfit. i also like dressing up but we have to dress up for school so that works well for me x
ohhh, your vintage style is the best – blogger icon! x
Haha, I think the snake print shoes are actually pretty, their 90s design is kind of ‘gentle’ somehow :)
And you look absolutely stunning, I adore the contrast between the pale skirt and the tights. Not to mention your vintage blouse, such a sweet treasure! Ian’s got great taste ;)
Have a lovely sunday,
Ale

love love love the skirt and top together, very delicate, feminine and lovely
The colour of the tights match perfectly with the colour of the cute skirt and top, and the pics are just beautiful! :)

Wow wow wow. Cream/ivory and burgundy is a colour combination I haven’t tried.. but now I desperately need to! You look stunning xx
Oh I love this outfit! That top is especially lovely! x
Wonderful look!
Specially in the last picture. I love it!
What a cute outfit! Really like it :)
I went to a thriftstore a few weeks ago and upon checking out with quite an eccentric jacket in hand, the cashier just said “Wow”. Well, I knew it was a bit hideous myself, but I couldn’t help but fall inlove. ahah, too funny. But btw, I love this outfit, the shoes are superrr cute. Great skit&hair!! And congratulations and the nomination!
