Festival Glam

"Fashion is very important. It is life-enhancing and, like everything that gives pleasure, it is worth doing well."

- Vivienne Westwood

So, today marks a week since my shopping ban started and surprisingly it's going okay... well so far. I guess being busy at the office and getting involved in other projects has distracted me from my usual daily activity; shopping. It'll be interesting, I guess, to see how I'm getting on a month down the line.

I guess the ban has truly enabled me to make the most out of the clothes I already own (like I said in my last post). I've fallen in love again with things I actually forgot that I owned. It hasn't just affected outfits that I've put together for the blog, it's also affected things I wear on a daily basis; to the office (where most of my time is spent) and out with friends and family.

One thing I've fallen in love with again is this dark gold pleated skirt that I bought from Bohoo at ASOS. It was a firm favourite if mine during the festive period, so much so that I was spotted in it several times and even done a outfit post featuring it. I decided to feature it again, this time for my latest outfit post; 'Festival Glam'.

Hey not all festivals mean wellies, mud and waterproof clothing or hot pants and a loose crop tops... well not for me. I'm all about those glam looks, glamping (Google it!) over camping, and if possible a hotel rather than a tent. That's the mindset I had when I put this outfit together. I teamed up this tie front crop top (sold out but you can get a similar one here) with my gold skirt (also sold out, but you can too get a similar one here and here). I finished off the look with a gold layered statement necklace, a gold grab clutch bag and simple low heeled gold sandals. Simple but chic.
