bedroom eyes







h&m sheer blouse, temt shorts





i am a firm believer in underwear as outerwear. there is a sexy, cheeky quality about pajamas and slips usually reserved for something else, yet that same cheekiness never shows itself in other clothing. lace, satin, sheer...these are all elements of clothing that i am currently drawn to. these lace edged shorts labelled as 'sleepwear' caught my eye amongst a jumble of clothing on a table outside a store i rarely visit, but i knew i had to take them home.

LOVE LOVE LOVE! Those shorts are amazing - I would never have known they were PJs unless you said!

Love your top too. You are just too stylish!

I think they look cute... But, like all white things... I'd be scared of spilling food on them. LOVE the shirt, love the shirt.

soph (owl vs. dove) said...

This is pretty epic. Leopard and lace = this combination is meant for you! When I saw those shorts I was all like "ohhh heyyyy they have those Lover shorts in white too" haha. Great temt spotting! That shop just overwhelms me.

As for my nail polish, it's "Do You Lilac it" by O.P.I. They've got a a fair few lavender/lilac shades. I had a bit of trouble actually choosing between them all. Very happy with my choice though!

The Velvet Bow said...

Chow I don't know anyone but you who could pull this off (and pull it off so, so well)!

I really can't get enough of your outfit posts, seriously. That leopard shirt is wonderful.
