Family Lunch Outfit




A few weeks ago me and my parents decided to go out for Sunday lunch before we all went back to school/work. We had a lovely day out in beautiful surroundings with great food but silly me forgot to take my camera so I didn’t manage to get any shots. However I do have my outfit for you today.





I decided to go quite dressy as the place that we were going to was quite posh, but I didn’t want to go all out by wearing a dress, so I chose a skirt.





I chose to wear this patterned skirt from River Island with a pair of black tights from Primark. I love how autumnal the skirt looks (I know its winter but oh well) and think the patterns on it make look more dressy than casual. I have also talked about this skirt in previous posts (No Place I’d Rather Be) but I think that just gives an idea of how much I love it.



As the skirt makes quite a statement, I wanted to pair it with something simple but something that didn’t get lost in the outfit. This cream jumper from New Look was the perfect match. I love how the sleeves are cropped to just above the elbow as it makes it different from your regular jumper. I really like how the different textures of it make it more exciting than just a plain cream jumper and I think that makes it pop in the outfit.



The shoes that I chose to pair with this outfit are these tan wedges from New Look. These were the first pair of heels that I ever owned (I got them about 4 years ago!) and I still love them just as much as I did when I first bought them. They don’t have the biggest of heels but I think this gives a bit of class to the outfit without going all out with massive stilettos and this just makes them really comfortable and easy to wear. As I bought these so long ago, they don’t still stock the exact same ones, but you can find lots of dupes in high street stores for very reasonable prices.



To help tie in the shoes with the rest of my outfit, I used a new bag which I bought a few weeks ago from Accessorize. It is a great size for day or night and has two inside pockets which is great for keeping things separate in your bag. I love the colour of this bag and I think it really helps to tie the whole outfit together. The gold detailing on the clasp and the bottom of the handles also gives a touch of class to the outfit and makes the bag look a lot more dressy, especially when paired with an outfit like this.

I hope you enjoyed this and leave me comments below or on my social media (links below) with any requests of future posts that you would like to see me do.
