Frayed

This is the most recent look I posted on Lookbook and so far my favourite!
I've really been loving anything checked, so I nabbed this black and white gingham crop top from my sister's wardrobe and paired it with a black frilled net skirt that came from an old Halloween costume- since I have bought my own top which I adore. It also just so happened that the outfit worked really well with some of the flowers in my garden which I thought looked really cool!

  I really love how the strict geometric patterns of the top and the loose ragged netting on the skirt contrast each other. I thought it drew a line between it being grungy and pretty.

 To finish it off I just added my patent navy blue Dr Martens and some sunglasses from Pimkie that I bought when I went to Paris a few months ago- it was such a great trip and it was so sunny so I just had to buy some!

It also just so happened that the outfit worked really well with some of the flowers in my garden which I thought looked really cool! Whenever I take pictures, I find I tend to fuss over the background a lot, to me it's just as important as the foreground, so when I took these pictures I thought all the greenery just added colour to the picture that I didn't get from the outfit :) I also really love fantasy as a genre so all the ivy on the fence behind made it look a bit more erm fantastical? 
Anyway, coming up with this outfit was really fun and I can't wait to do some more little shoot things :)
Thanks for reading, see ya next time maybe!
