My pictures today are oddly lit. I could’ve taken advantage of the fading daylight but that would’ve involved being out of doors, not something I relished doing at all today. Instead I stayed indoors once I finally got home and took some oddly lit photos in multiple locations that are, well, odd.

Back in black today with a splash of col0ur and metal for kicks. The dress is from Penneys, it creases purely by existing but I find it rather comfortable and versatile. It can be a little short when I sit down as the hem is all over the place (something I noticed when preparing myself for a driving lesson that, thankfully, did not happen) but that’s something thick, high denier tights, solve.

Isn’t it funny how the high street is ALL OVER Chanel-inspired clothing and accessories for some time now and it’s not going anywhere. Looking at what I’m wearing my belt looks like the 2.11 chain and my shoes are quilted two-tone flats. The belt was ridiculously cheap and the shoes are more high street than the high street itself, the look is unintentional but makes me me feel very fashion-victimy. I can’t say that it has put me off Chanel but my grá for the 2.11 has waned in the face of a world of imitations.
