To Maximum Effect







Dress, NewLook
Cardigan, Next
Shoes, JC Lita
Belt, Back of my wardrobe
Bag, Hermes
Necklace, River island
Joint Ring, Asos
I just want to say hi to all my new followers! Thank you so much for looking at my blog J
Another outfit post today. I’m a wee little thing so wearing a maxi is a bit daunting and always requires heels, but I thought I would brave it because I like it so much!
The belt I’m wearing is so old, I love the little pockets on it, great for storing lip balm :P  I posted about the necklace I’m wearing a while ago (here), and I found I have worn it a lot more recently as I changed the chain to a thinner one, it came with a giant chain and it looked a bit “R&B video”  for me!
Necklace, Topshop
Top, Yayer.com

Yesterday my Topshop claw necklace arrived, so happy! I have loved strange jewellery like this for ages. I have been lusting after all Pamela Love’s jewellery at the moment and this reminded me of her claw cuff! In the picture also is a crochet top I bought, it’s so sweet I can’t wait to wear it in the summer!

    I'm exactly the same when it comes to maxi dresses, it's heels or I can't wear them.

    The TopShop claw necklace is stunning though, I love that shade of blue at the moment

    I love how you made this maxi work! I'm tiny too (only 5'0") but always wanted to rock a maxi dress too. Now what I do is just wear maxi skirts as dresses! ;)
