what I wore: laurel wreath & vintage

it's love... of the fred perry variety.

my other half had some fred perry tops... I say had as I've borrowed quite a few and 'forgotten' to return them. my fave is his cricket jumper, perfect autumnal snuggling material! I've always had a soft spot for their range, simple clean cuts with a vintage feel there's something adorably retro about the brand and it's heritage.

this floral print shirt is from their laurel wreath collection, a super sexy collaboration with fashion designer amy molyneaux of london label PPQ. vintage inspired with a modern spin I love the little details on this collection; quirky collars, silk fabrics and a snazzy (yes it appears I've just used the word snazzy) 1950's influence.

I've paired it with a pair of max & co high waisted vintage shorts, I've had these for a while and have been waiting to give them an outing; I love the bright colour but I wasn't sure what to wear them with until now!

my hair 'do' is courtesy of hurricane force winds that decided to make an appearance, thank you mother nature.... one day I shall have my revenge you rascal.

  3. Gorgeous outfit! Love the colours, and the hair is quite playful. It goes well with the look even if it is a bit windswept haha!

    That top is really nice, and quite unlike the usual simplistic Fred Perry garments. I like it, it's a good change!!
