HELLO – this is the first outfit post of 2017, that’s pretty exciting!?
I thought I’d come back with something bright, and out there, because y’know… it’s 2017 and I should probably look at colours that aren’t black, white and grey??
I have to say, I felt super conscious of how bright this off the shoulder jumper was, but it’s so pretty, I decided to just roll with it.
Red is a really tricky colour to style in all honesty, and like me I think many people are a bit scared of it. I’ve seen SO many bright red pieces in the shops recently, particularly H&M (which is no surprise), and that gives me hope that people will start embracing it more! With hints of black, you can really make it a super cute outfit. Like a sassy ladybug.
(By the way – it’s nearly midnight – I’m exhausted and my throat just will not stop hurting… any tips to get rid of the incessant pain would be GREATLY appreciated!)
I decided to pair this jumper (from Missguided, a very long time ago – here is a bodysuit with a similar cut) with my trusty black ASOS jeans. Because they’re quite far above the ankle, I took the opportunity to wear my ultra comfortable Gucci dupes from New Look (similar here), as well as my trusty leopard print bag that I use every chance I get.
I think this shade is perfect if you’re wanting to step outside of your comfort zone. Yeah, people might stare at how blindingly bright it is, but let them – it’s 2017 and we’re not giving any f*cks this year!
