OUTFIT: Dolly coat, paisley & details

dress - eBay
coat - ASOS
belt - zara
bag - vintage

I got this coat in the ASOS sale, I have alot of coats but was after one that was quite fitted and feminine. I love princess coats and think this is ASOS's version of one! It's called a Dolly coat, it has a peter pan collar, fitted arms/waist and then flairs out into a dress style. I don't think these pictures do it justice (don't you hate that!) but I adore it, I feel super 60s in it - when paired with the right thing.

I've had this dress for a while now but haven't shown it on here before. I love the white collar and think it'll be perfect for the spring/summer transition with bare legs and white accessories.
Speaking of which, I've needed a white bag for so long and found an amazing Furla one but couldn't justify the price tag. I found this one in a vintage shop and gave it a big clean but I think it could do with some more love to make sure I'm fully happy with it.

For once in my life, I tried out a nude lip. Can you believe it? I think it looks so 60s but it's so hard to get used to. I feel like my face looks really bare so I chucked a lot of eye make up on to make up for it. I've also been trying a more relaxed hair style, I can't believe I'm gonna say it but I've kinda outgrown the massive hair.

  1. You look so so lovely! Absolutely adore the dress, and your hair is lush like this - still plenty of volume but sleek and glossy at the same time!
