Rockin' Red


Silk & Sheer Red Kimono: Shutterbug
Black Peep toe Wedges: Catch Clothing
15 Dernier Tights: Penneys (Primark)
Black Spanx Top/ Dress: Dunnes Stores
Bag: Aldo
Gold Chain: River Island
Bowler Hat: The Hat Shop (St. Stephen's Green, Dublin)

I wore this to a 21st Birthday party. Now i ended up being lazy and not wearing the lovely wedges but throwing on comfy flatforms and as well I did not wear the bowler as convinced i would have lost it (which I would have). 

You may notice that I look positively miserable in the first photo. I put on this outfit and decided I hated it, convinced myself that my thighs looked huge and then promised myself I would not post this look. I actually worry about how my brain works some times because when I put them on the computer I was like  oh i look fine. Do you ever think you see yourself in the mirror differently to how you actually look or appear in other peoples eyes?

So I wore a body con top and a baggy second hand bright red kimono over it. It was a cool look and I love the shoulder pads. The kimono when looked at closely is actually stripy with strips of silk interlaced with sheer strip panels. It's cool! Stole the shoes and bag off my sister again. Whoops.
