Simple Monochrome

Hello all!^^

So first things first, I am so sorry that I haven't posted in such a long time! With mock exams, my birthday, my dance group and various other things, I just don't know where the time has gone. Anyway, enough with the excuses - I actually took these pictures about 3 weeks ago, but I can't remember the date so I'll just label it for today xD

Lace top - Gift
Skater skirt - New Look
Cardigan - Independent store
Tights - Primark
Necklace - River Island

I received this lace top as a gift from my godmother in America, and I love it so much! It's lace, for one, but I also think that the cut and shape is very flattering. It has an extremely low back, which is slightly uncomfortable, but it's unusual and it's also a great piece for layering. 

Here's a better view of the actual
pattern :)

I've had the skirt for a while now and I love it. My waist is unusually high so I often find it hard to find a skirt that I can wear on my waist without it being too short. This skirt was from the Tall section at New Look, so it's a little longer than regular skater skirts, which is great for me! I wanted to achieve a pared-down look, so I kept with the monochrome theme by wearing a standard white cable-knit and some black tights. I chucked on my trusty genie lamp necklace for a little bit of change and that was my outfit!

Thanks for reading! I hope you enjoyed^^
