Have I mentioned how much I love tartan? Because I absolutely do.

bright office wear

I think I'd like to work in an office. Mainly because I imagine myself wearing stuff like this to work.

Okay, I have now officially started my new years resolution*, which was/is to take a photo of every new outfit I wear.

Mink Pink distressed dark denim mini skirt (second hand)
tartan stockings of awesomeness (Sportsgirl)
red ballet flats (Rubi Shoes)

Okay, so far, so good! Hopefully, this shall continue, and I shall get better at using a camera.



*hey, it's better to start doing them late than to not start them at all right?

things I love: tartan

Everyone has their clothing 'thing' that they love. You know what I'm talking about - that clothing type that, when you wear it, it makes you happy. I have a couple of things like that (statement tights, nautical-themed clothing), but my main one for the last five or so years (and wow is that a long time) has been tartan.

I have tartan shoes, pants, dresses, ties, hats, tights, underwear, coats, and many, many tartan skirts. There's just something about tartan (especially red tartan, although I do have multi-coloured tartan skirts) that just draws me to it. I'm on the look out for some tartan boots/vest/shirt, and of course I can never resist a tartan skirt (which my bulging wardrobe can attest to).
