Palm Print

This look is a take on smart/casual. I actually think it's quite hard to find a good balance between the two but in my opinion this look does just that. The skirt has a super fun, bright print and the shirt.. well, it's a shirt. A long sleeved top is also a great alternative to a jacket when the sun is shining, but don't be fooled, the sun may be shining but it's still a bit chilly outside so don't forgo the jacket completely just yet haha! Let's get onto a detailed view of my look..

I got this skirt last week from Primark and instantly fell in love, it's beautiful and a great material, which is always a plus. It's a bit on the warm side so I might not get as much wear out of it in the summer as I would have hoped but it's a great option for the evening when the summer breeze kicks in, and it's perfect for spring. I wanted it to be slightly more high waisted than it is - I went for a smaller size but it still sits at the hips which I'm not a huge fan of. Nonetheless, you can't really go wrong when it comes to Primark and with something a bit thicker tucked in, like a jumper, it should do the trick and push it up a little bit. 

At first I had paired the skirt with a plain black T-shirt and my leather jacket but thought it looked too dark for spring, and a white T-shirt just didn't sit well with me so I went for a tucked in shirt instead. I like the way it looks - I think it's a balance between casual and smart, so a smart casual look haha. The skirt is super fun and the shirt smartens up the whole look. I absolutely love these boots and will continue wearing them until it's unbearably hot, and of course, this black bag has been, and probably will be, forever on my blog. 

I kept accessories really toned down for this look, with some simple silver jewellery. I wore a pair of sunglasses which are clearly too big for my face, yay me! I have such a small and slightly square face that it's basically impossible to find any sunglasses that suit me. They end up taking over my whole face, giving me a massive looking nose (it's already big enough and sunglasses just make it so much more noticeable). I need to find a small pair of sunglasses that don't take over my whole face - I think it's why all my sunglasses are super cheap, I just can't commit, I look too silly!

 Have you been to Primark recently? Do you let one print "do the talking" or do you like pairing more than one print for your spring look?
