Outfit #3: Start wearing purple

Dia dhuit! (I'm running out of languages to introduce myself in)

"Start wearing purple, wearing purple,

nananana,

start wearing purple for me nooooow,

all your sanity and wits they will all vanish,

I promise,

it's just a matter of time!"

Any Gogol Bordello fans out there? I suggest start wearing purple as excellent background music for this post :)

I don't look too happy here because every picture kept looking horrible (more so than this one haha) so I was a little annoyed by the time this one was taken.

Top   -   H&M

   Skirt   -   Monsoon

                Shoes   -   Penney's (Primark)

Bag   -   Parfois

                   Necklace   -   Bought at a local market 

I love this skirt so much - I found it on sale for 7€ (!!!) instead of 70€. In my size. Clearly, it was meant to be! I wear this outfit combination a lot, especially when it's a little colder, with a nice heavy cardigan, boots and tights. So you'll be seeing this one again :) 

(NB. I didn't quite realise how dirty my shoes looked in this picture until now. Oops.)

This handbag has two straps so you can wear it as a shoulder bag, or a cross-body bag. This was the first item I ever bought at Parfois and after a year of very frequent use it's held up great for the most part. I had to get one of the side zips (see in the first picture) replaced, but other than that, there are no signs of wear and tear. Not bad for 17€!

Here's a close up:

I know the lighting for my outfit pics is quite bad, but here you can see that the bag is in fact a beautiful navy colour, with golden zips.

I apologize for the atrocious picture quality, but today was not my day in the photography department. At least you can see my necklace properly :) I wanted to list a few similar options online, but I've found it difficult to find anything, so here are a few general suggestions for nice, geometric-style necklaces instead:

And for the last horrible picture of the day: A close-up of my beloved 9€ Penney's shoes. I have worn them (nearly) to death, and really wish I had bought two pairs. Those tiny pink hearts ;)

And to end: A collage of Marie's (Breaking Bad) love for one specific colour... 

(NB. I didn't make this collage, I just googled 'Breaking Bad Marie purple')

Thanks for reading and wear some purple ;)
