Muling Around

Duster Coat - ASOS | Drop Waist Dress - ASOS | Mules - Faith

What fresh hell is this, Elena wearing a dress? I don't know what has happened to our normal October weather but I'm loving steering clear of the tights for a couple days longer. As you know, I don't like dresses particularly but this one caught me as its so sporty and casual, it's basically like wearing a massive t-shirt but looks better. Dresses always tend to make me look shorter than I already am, so I teamed it with my new favourite shoe of the year, my mules. How I've never owned mules before, I do not know. And of course, because it is actual still October and not that warm although I'm pretending it is, I threw on top my trusty duster coat to keep me warm when my legs turn purple.

Am I Sandy from Grease now?

Khaki Tee - Zara | Midi Skirt - Boohoo | Trainers - Zara | Doctor's Bag - Zara | Sunglasses - Primark

Until recently I steered well clear on any skirt in remotely deemed as midi but now I can't get enough of it! I've actually had this skirt from Boohoo sat in my wardrobe for months but have struggled to style it up.Then I just decided to bite the bullet and pair with a tee and trainers for a preppy look on drugs. I really feel like Sandy from Grease (good Sandy) in this skirt and it's probably one of its attractions. 

By using a neutral coloured t-shirt, I'm not distracting from the skirt and by pairing it with all white trainers, it puts emphasis on the white element of the outfit. I also love how the t-shirt deceiving looks completely plain until you look at the back, which features slogan embroidery. Another 10/10 from Zara. 

This outfit is quite different to my usual shirt/jeans combo so let me know what you think and how you would style this midi skirt, help me out guys!
