Black leather A line mini

Black opaques

Black heel boots

Slouchy grey T-shirt tucked into skirt

Blingy necklace over the top.

For a night out. Drinks in naice bars. Not too dressy.

Thoughts?

Personally hate opaques but other than that, perfect.

NotTodaySatan · 08/10/2015 21:58

What would you wear instead Methen?

The skirt is way too indecent for bare legs and I hate flesh coloured tights. Is there another alternative I'm missing?

Sounds v nice, maybe pop of colour somewhere - lip/bag/jewellery?

NotTodaySatan · 08/10/2015 22:01

Creature my face will no doubt me popping with color. I'm a makeup fiend Grin.

I have a tendency to overdo it with outfits. Prints, three accessories too many (Coco would hate me) etc. I'm making a conscious effort to look more pared down and put together but it ain't coming naturally to me!

Anyone else?

I think it sounds great :)

MrsAukerman · 08/10/2015 22:19

They're all such simple pieces that it could look stunning or really cheap and that'll depend on the finish of the hair, make-up, tights need to be brand new, posture good etc.

Queenbean · 08/10/2015 22:21

Agree with Mrs aukerman

ShebaQueen · 08/10/2015 22:22

I like the sound of this outfit and I love opaques, couldn't cope without them in winter. Hope you have a great night OP - is it this weekend?

NotTodaySatan · 08/10/2015 22:23

Everything is new so hopefully won't look scruffy. My posture is always good when I'm in heels, I find I hold my back much straighter. The pieces are all high street but more Zara than Primark iyswim.

Hair and makeup I have no concerns about. I usually have a bit of a rock chick vibe going on and think that will add to this outfit Smile.

I like the sounds of it and love opaques.

Update with a picture if you can I the week?

burnishedsilver · 08/10/2015 22:27

Sounds good to me, assuming we're talking ankle boots or shoe boots, not knee length.

Cocolepew · 08/10/2015 22:31

Sounds great, is your hair still purple?

NotTodaySatan · 08/10/2015 22:34

Yes Coco it's a warmer pink based purple now. I last dyed it three weeks ago with another mixture of two Manic Panic colours, have washed it 2-3 times a week since and it has barely faded Shock.

my forehead has just about healed as well Blush.

Will take pics of the outfit, thanks all.

Perfect.

Queenbean · 08/10/2015 22:43

Your hair is purple? Omg amazing!

Do you have a pic? Would love to see

BearFoxBear · 08/10/2015 22:44

Sounds exactly like one my favourite outfits, just add a denim jacket and black scarf - done :)

Cocolepew · 08/10/2015 22:46

Hardly faded?

MrsAukerman · 09/10/2015 06:43

Sounds great then. Photo please! I used to have purple hair and am intrigued.

plum1304 · 09/10/2015 06:58

Sounds like a great outfit. Will you wear a jacket?

NotTodaySatan · 09/10/2015 07:03

Probably one of my faux fur coats plum. I have this one that hasn't had an outing yet this year.

The hair is fabulous - was slightly concerned about mini and heel height being a bit much but the hair and the fake fur take it in a different direction and are perfect for the rock chick look.
