The Rainbow Skirt With The Denim Shirt

I decided to try something a little different with this outfit. I’ve never really been fond of tight mini skirts because I feel they are too short and can give off the wrong impression, however, pairing it with a light wash denim shirt I feel really tones down the look. I know the skirt is quite contrasting against the denim but I have grown fond of the combination.

I’m wearing my Topshop light denim shirt, an ASOS multi coloured striped mini skirt, my River Island coloured bag, a Lipsy dragonfly ring, H&M gold bangles and my Topshop nude/grey Sugar heels.

I’m so glad the weather is hot again! Today has been roasting, I’m so fed up of the constant rain so it makes a nice change. Although this is my luck, I just bought a cute Lulu Guinness umbrella. Ha ha!

    Lovely outfit Lorna, although personally I think the shirt looks better out rather than tucked in.. But all the colours and accessories go great x

      Thanks everyone 🙂 I think I like it both ways, the shirt tucked in is more smart where as the shirt un-tucked is a bit more sloppy.

    Hi. Love the shirt. Really like the look. I prefet it In or relaxed part untucked I’m trying to convince my wife to get a denim shirt but she says it’s not in. I think it is and double denim looks great. I like the look and feel of denim shirts. Are they back in so I can convince her? Nic

      Thank you! Denim shirts have been in fashion for about a year now, all of the celebs wear them and pretty much every shop carries them now, they are definitely the shirt to have! If you are going to buy a shirt it should be denim! Get her a lighter washed one so it can go with dark jeans or anything else, it’s easier to match to stuff than a dark denim one. I have a lot of denim shirts, they are definitely really popular! Rihanna was just spotted in hers last week.

    Hi. I’m not sure I go for the tired shirt look of rihanna. I prefer tucked in or part tucked in. I think Kate moss did some double denim recently. It’s my wife’s birthday shortly so a bit of shopping due. Do u have any double demim blogg? Love the blogg by the way.

    • October 24, 2011 / 5:07 pm

      Yeah Kate Moss did do double denim to the Mulberry SS12 show! She looked great! I actually am the editor and main writer of DenimBlog which is a blog dedicated to denim! It has a lot of double denim on it too! http://www.denimblog.com if you want to check it out!
