Outfit of the Day: New Look Kimono & White Platform Sandals

New Look Kimono £19.99 (similar here) | Topshop Acid Wash Jeans (old) | New Look White Chunky Caged Sandals £24.99 | Black Scalloped Vest (old)

Ahoy there maties,

It has bean a while since I’ve done an outfit of the day. This is partly because I have had really scabby skin that has involved me looking like a crocodile for an unusual amount of time in my life. But thankfully, I am slightly less lizardy now and can take photos that don’t involve me looking trollish (…kind of anyway).

I bought this jazzy kimono from New Look before I went away to South Africa. I absolutely love it, from the floral print to the tassels at the bottom. Being a short girl, it’s quite long on me but I actually really like that as well. My only real beef with this kimono is that the tassels keep unravelling. I’m not sure if this is just an unfortunate side effect, or because I stuffed it in the washing machine without a second thought, but it means I keep trailing bits of thread everywhere. Nevertheless, this isn’t enough to put me off in the slightest.

I wore my New Look kimono with my standard Topshop acid wash jeans, a super old Topshop scalloped vest and my New Look white platforms. All in all, I’m pretty pleased with this outfit and I’m enjoying wearing it right now (now you know what I’m wearing, you perverts).

I also have on my tip top fave lip product at the moment, Revlon’s Colourburt Matte Balm in Sultry. Can I get a ‘yes, I agree, these are heaven sent’?

So, what do you think? Get involved in the comments below, you scoundrels.

    I love your sandals and was thinking about myself a pair (but in black) but how comfortable are yours and how good is the quality?

      They’re actually really comfortable! While they’ve got a bit of a heel, you don’t really notice it at all – I’ve worn mine for 10 hours+ and my feel haven’t ached. The quality is really good too – had no problems since I bought them a few months ago 🙂 xxx
