Ruffle Blouse / Victorian-Style Coat / Hat with Silk Ribbon


Hello all!
I suppose the presence of snow in these photos slightly gives away the fact that these were not taken today... bad Arabella. Although, I have been excited to share these photos with you as this Parisian-esque blouse (affectionately referred to as my 'Musketeer Blouse') has certainly become a favourite in several outfits - you might recognise it from when I styled it with my chinoiserie print suitI also love the way the shoulders have been structured on this coat in quite a Victorian way and the beautiful texture which is described as 'jacquard', but I think it's definitely more of a subtle lace print. Despite the blouse being a re-discovered favourite, it was only whilst uploading the photos that it occurred to me that this outfit is ever so reminiscent of The Child Catcher from Chitty Chitty Bang Bang. Not really what I was aiming for...
The new semester at university starts for me tomorrow, so it's time to get my brain back in gear and I will now spend the evening 'preparing' for tomorrow morning!

Hat : Ted Baker. Shirt & Coat : ZARA. Stole : H&M. Skirt : Topshop. Ring : Granny's.

  12. I love the idea of the fur stole, but I feel like I am having a hard time styling it without it coming off costume-y. Do you have any suggestions??

    Good luck at college tomorrow!

  21. Gorgeous - loving your 'musketeer' blouse! I love blouses with front volume (ruffles/pussybow) as they seem to suit my...er...lack of natural frontage! At least having small boobs is good for something, haha :)
