Summer 10 x 10 - Look Three

Wearing: vintage silk top (similar here) // vintage skirt (similar here) Topshop shoes (in the orange colourway here) depop earrings (similar here)

The first of the repeated items! I chose to wear the linen skirt from day one's look today with the khaki silk t shirt tucked into it. I added the woven shoes I got from Topshop which really are the easiest summer work shoes - comfortable and the perfect height.

I do wear a lot of vintage pieces but I think if they are styled in the right way, they can look really current. This skirt is a case in point - I've seen a lot of oversized gingham and checks this summer, and this ticks that trend box whilst also being my favourite length - midi - which I think is really appropriate for work. I do wear mini skirts and shorter dresses but I always feel more comfortable in something like this, which is less flashy!

I've been wearing my hair in a topknot constantly due to the heat. My hair is so long and thick and I can't stand it sticking to my neck when it gets hot, so shoving it up into a topknot is the easiest way to wear it. I can also safely say I only need one pair of sunglasses in my wardrobe - I actually bought another pair at the start of the summer (cheap ones) but they are so uncomfortable compared to these - despite these ones looking a bit rangy now (I think I've had them at least 6 years) I can't part with them!
