Making the most of the summertime in the city (far away from the sea!), I've worn this beach-like outfit to work and to go for a walk in the evening too. It was quite hot last week, so this colorful outfit felt like a great idea and some co-workers agreed. Their positive comments were pretty appreciated!.
Both my 'massive flower' skirt and the printed top were bought second hand and revamped. The top was a body-con dress that I cut away and the skirt was also a dress whose elasticated top was removed (see here). I think that both of them were lucky finds!.
Linking Visible Monday and wishing you a visible week and a Slow Fashion Season.
Aprovechando todo lo posible el verano en la ciudad, bien lejos de la costa, me he puesto muy playera para ir a trabajar y luego salir a caminar por la tarde. Hacía bastante calor la semana pasada, así que todo este colorido me pareció muy buena idea y algunos de mis colegas del trabajo estuvieron de acuerdo (muy de agradecer sus comentarios positivos!).
Tanto la falda de la flor enorme como el top estampado fueron compras de segunda mano que luego reformé. La camiseta era en realidad un vestido ajustado que recorté, y la falda era un vestido largo con la parte superior elástica que se fue fuera. Creo que tuve mucha suerte de encontrar estas prendas tan de mi estilo.
Enlazo al Visible Monday y os deseo una semana muy visible y un verano libre de ropa de usar y tirar Slow Fashion Season.

I love big bold prints like this - that's what I look for when I'm thrifting! You would not even know that these were both cut down from dresses - great job on that! I don't miss retail shopping either - like you, I almost never shop retail!
ResponderEliminarYou did an excellent job of re-working those two dresses into wearable pieces!
ResponderEliminarWow! The Massive Flower Skirt is AMAZING and your pattern smashing is A+!
ResponderEliminarThanks for linking, this is a perfect summer look!
