Red Sox

Vintage Red Sox t-shirt / Vintage skirt / Asos leather jacket (old) / Doc Martens shoes
Having a wardrobe crisis this morning, I grabbed Lewis’ Red Sox tee and paired it with my cheerleader/tennis skirt and I love the result. This is me dabbling in the sports fashion trend, which I love but it is perhaps not naturally my style. So, I added my trusty Docs and leather jacket to toughen up the outfit. 
About two years ago I was doing a classic North American road trip with Lewis and as we were going to see the Red Sox we decided to hunt down some t-shirts in Boston’s thrift stores. For now, my navy one is residing back in Bristol but I’m definitely going to pick it up when next back!

Summer Monochrome

All items vintage and from Kilo Shop
I’ve just got back from a two week holiday in the South of France, which was beautifully relaxing and filled with lots of wine and cheese (my favourites). I love this monochrome summer evening look – featuring my new jellies, which I just can’t stop wearing! This is the outfit I wore for a lovely dinner to celebrate my grandparents’ 60th wedding anniversary, which is great because the skirt is perfect for hiding all the food I ate!

A Slip Dress for Summer

Motel Rocks dress (c/o) / Converse trainers / Topshop tattoo choker / Ray Ban sunglasses
Those of you who follow me on Instagram will recognise this dress from my Glastonbury festival photos where I was Motel’s Festival Reporter. I chose this lovely turquoise gingham slip dress from Motel’s fab summer collection to wear to the festival. And here it is in all its glory on a little outing to Versailles on one of the hottest days of the year. Slip dresses are perfect for summer thanks to their light material and loose fit and this one is no exception. Plus I love gingham so it’s just win win really.

Transparent shirt

Vintage Levis Shorts / Vintage bralet / Vintage shirt / Doc Marten boots
I’ve been rocking this outfit a lot recently in the hot Parisian sun.* I love this transparent shirt because I can wear little underneath but not feel too naked at the same time, which is great as Parisians still wear black jeans and jackets in 25 degree heat!
These photos were taken by my friend Gina whilst she was here for an extended visit! Look out for her making a guest appearance on the blog soon!

*I wrote this post a couple of weeks ago and scheduled it to be posted whilst I was Glastonbury and it didn’t happen. It is now cold and rainy in Paris 🙁

Glastonbury Festival Fashion

Here are a couple of my outfits that I managed to get snapped at Glastonbury in between the mud, rain and storms. 
Outfit 1: Vintage crop top and petticoat / Vintage bumbag / Hunter wellies / Topshop long socks
Outfit 2: Gingham slip dress c/o Motel Rocks (get 20% off Motel using code izzie_h)/ Hunter wellies / Asos sunglasses
And here are some of the festival fashion snaps I took as Motel Rocks’ festival reporter…
The festival fashion at Glastonbury this year was amazing and has really set the bar for the rest of the festival season. Kimonos and crochet made a big appearance and accessories such as flower crowns, tribal feathered headdresses and chokers were also very popular. Take note if you’re going to any festivals during the rest of the summer!
