This outfit was from a little while ago, and with much more black than I usually wear - I guess I was having a black kind of day. I'm hoping to get more wear out of this little jacket now that it's not so freezing cold and the dress is a gift from my favourite Big Cartel store, Miss Patina. They have a really unique and amazing range of vintage-inspired dresses and tops (this dress being one of my favourites!).
I've been to the orthodontist to have my braces tightened and am currently eating a nice cold ice cream to numb the soreness. Apparently I have to have four more teeth out, within the next eight weeks if possible. Ahhh! On the plus side I got my hair done a few days ago so now it's looking darker and sleeker. I think I like it but I'm still getting used to it (photos to come).

Alicia & Amie - Haha you girls are definitely onto something! I think I must be learning from the best; every time I go into town I'm amazed at the layered back outfits I see some girls wearing. They always look so chic and put together! x Sushi

As a fellow braces sufferer, drink tea! Warmth makes metal expand, so you get less of that 'ow ow ow my mouth is being pulled together' feeling - cold does the opposite, and they get tighter, though it does numb. After I get my braces tightened I usually go through four or five cups of tea a night, it is the best remedy :3 Bonjela is really good too! Hope it begins to hurt less soon :)
(Just wait until you get elastics though :( give me plain old braces any day. I will be super jealous if you're lucky enough to avoid them!!)
Gorgeous dress, I love the outfit! Very envious of your wonderful style! xo
adorable dress and amazing pics!

This is the most absolute perfect outfit! im so in love with everything. I need that Miss Patina dress!! x
Darling, as always. Your sense of proportion is spot on. I think that helps to balance the Wednesday Addams-ness of this ensemble, keeping it sweet but still edgy. That jacket was such a score!!!
gorgeous photos, love the shoes and i want your bag!!
