classic

Dotti Boater, Breton-striped shirt made by my mother, Finders Keepers shorts.

I found myself running to my closet to find my Breton-striped shirt (that my lovely mother made for me) after reading Teen Vogue's Alexa Chung interview, where she claimed it to be one of the most versatile pieces in her wardrobe. I can't believe I hadn't realised that before! Alexa strikes again, influencing wardrobes all around the world with her classic style.
Aside from being inspired, I had a lovely weekend, starting off with a girl's night with Maria on Saturday and doing absolutely nothing on Sunday. Feeling somewhat defeated with this Jane Austen book review I'm attempting for tomorrow's English class but I made a very pretty Powerpoint to accompany it. Maybe no one will notice the sloppy paragraphing if I include swirly effects on the photos?

So cute look by the way ♥ Thanks for following dear!
