All Wrapped Up


Enter my new favourite outfit - a wrap top (which is actually a body i.e. the comfiest thing to wear with anything high waisted) paired with a wrap skirt. I don't own anything else like either of these and I really don't know why I haven't ventured into the world of wrap tops before because they're so flattering. I wouldn't usually go for a body because whenever I think of them I just imagine Beyonce wearing one by itself and unfortunately that's not really me...however picking this one up has made me realise just how useful they are for wearing under high waisted things - no double checking you're all tucked in and this one has poppers so you don't have to get completely undressed when you go to the toilet (sorry if that's TMI but I feel like many of you will understand!).








The skirt is one of those scary ones that's just held together with a little button and the tie that you do up yourself so there is a slight fear when I put this on about whether it's actually going to hold up all day, but so far so good. I love the stripes and the colours and luckily for me it goes with the top perfectly. I also like the length of the skirt because it's work appropriate which ultimately means I will wear it more!

Yet again I'm wearing my babin' trainers from Tu, which dress down this outfit nicely meaning I can wear it alla the time! I think this might be the third outfit post in a row I've worn them in, but I really am wearing them so much because they're so comfortable and didn't even need wearing in.

I've been getting a bit braidy recently and this hairstyle was an attempt to channel my inner Daenerys Targaryen, although I couldn't look less like a mother of dragons in these pictures if I tried.

What do you think of this outfit? Do you wear wrap skirts/tops?

  4. Great look, I'm loving your skirt so much! I haven't worn a wrap top in ages even though they really are amazingly comfy and I absolutely adore wrap skirts for summer, they're so light and easy to wear with pretty much anything! :) Have a great weekend! xx
