{outfit} This dress looks ten times better…

lornaluxe wears green dress with pointed court shoe and socks

with a belt!

And yep, back to my old tricks.

Tricks being sock n stilettos …not street walking incase-u-were-wundrin.

.

And last week when I popped into base camp Chez Mum, we dug out this belt – with a back-story involving an obsolete buckle and a much better offer.

There’s a happy ending. Promise.

Normally, I’d be arguing the fashion toss over a buckle such as this. As fashion currency, it’s rapidly diminishing. Now it’s about the knot, go skinny-belt or go home. But two minutes in and I was too busy skipping to smugsville with diminishing waist to care – winning.

.

Course I pulled out all the stops. Cue night time tease/last season silky number – wanting ‘ttention.

It’s a sort of trench cum transeasonal flappy thing, which I’ve adopted as a négligée.

I’m entry level nightwear bare with.

But the cue de maitre of such a ruddy good pairing… well it’d be rude to ignore. This belt does for my silhouette what *facetune does for my selfie.

An optical illusion shall we say. And highly recommended.

.

Swishy gowns and belts are now my thing.

  • You can pull off anything. The socks with the courts are too cute and your hair looks ace. Also digging the dress xxx

    • Awww – so glad you like this, the socks and pumps aren’t for everyone x

  • the pretty pumps look like gorg**** (discrete in case i’ll be banned for saying it to you a lot) booties. the way you wear everything (including the hair) makes you look as sweet as a little girl (a sweet one that is!) in the outfit. and again, that playful writing style! xxxx

    • Thanks darling, means the world to me that you read these posts! Big luxe loves to you …L x
