Relaxing At The Park In A Leopard Maxi Skirt

(Skirt – Similar, Top – Exact, Sandals – Exact, Sunglasses – Exact, Necklace – Similar, Bracelet – Exact)

I wore this outfit on Friday when I went to the park to wind down. I usually don’t feel the heat because I have cold hands and feet all the time, but on this day I was actually almost roasted and I had to go and sit in the shade after 10 minutes. It was really nice to just lie there on the grass and blanket and just appreciate the quiet. Like I mentioned in my previous post, the weekend really was some much needed rest for me.

I’m wearing an unbranded Leopard maxi skirt, a Miss Selfridge burgundy tank top, ASOS Flossy sandals, Ray Ban Cat Eye sunglasses, H&M bracelets, my Urban Outfitters Deer necklace, my Gina Stewart Sapphire bracelet and my beautiful Sphere of Life Mosaic bracelet.

I went with this outfit as it was something really simple and bold at the same time. Apart from the accessories, nothing cost me over £18. The skirt was a find on eBay under £10 and the tank top was cheap too. I always have the thought process that if something looks good and seems to be made quite well, then it doesn’t matter if it has a designer name on it or not. I just usually like what I like, whether that’s unbranded things or not. By the way, the Sphere of Life Mosaic bracelet giveaway ends in 3 days, so make sure you enter to win the beautiful bracelet!

    I love the combination of your skirt and the burgundy shirt! I love the print of the skirt and we all know burgundy is my new favorite color xD I love how you manage to make something that can look over the top (the print) look so decent and cute!!!

    And can I just add the necklace is just adorable???

    I have the same problem, my feet and hands are always cold and I’m always wearing a jacket, even in the summer! Also, I’m really fair and have a chronic fear of sunburns xD

      Ha ha so do I! I have a issue with being in the skin without sun cream! Since I’m obsessed with medical stuff I know how dangerous sun burns are, so I’m always really careful. I’ve only ever had one in my life time and that was when I was about 17. Do you have Raynauds too? Or just poor circulation? And I’m glad you like my outfit! I’ve been obsessed with burgundy for ages, it’s one of my favourites, especially for Autumn/Winter!

    The burgundy goes really well with the leopard print Lorna, you always wear such lovely outfits I only wish I could put items together as well as you do… Park looks a great place to relax and unwind xx
