It's worth overdoing........... in the words of the divine Helga Von Trollop and the gorgeous Keith Richards.
What's good enough for those two style icons is good enough for me. Tonight's outfit for popping down the Black Country Arms for a pint (or three) of guest ale and a cheeky mid-week vegetable Jalfrezi involves polka dots, posies, psychedelia, roses, tribal, vintage, designer, high street, stripes and why the heck not?
Does it match? Does it matter? Nah! I love everything I'm wearing and that's good enough for me.
Details: Van Allen maxi dress (one of a pair from eBay), Vintage Liberty silk scarf (local vintage shop), Platform clogs (high street boutique), Oversized 1950's floral bag (Car boot sale), Silver bangles (India and inherited), Rings (India), Tribal hoops (India)
See you tomorrow!
You look fab! I have just noticed that Rose bag is like a giant purse! How unusual I love it. Have a great night.

Strangely with all the mix of patterns/fabrics it doesn't actualy look like it doesn't go. You look fabulous as always. Wish I looked so good when I pop out for some cider! x
ReplyDeleteGreat prints. But really it's the way YOU wear them.
ReplyDeleteThe rest of us are so dull on the whole. Very depressing trolling round Tesco amongst the dreary T-shirts and so on. I'm an offender myself, I admit. I simply must do better but I don't have your natural advantages unfortunately. ;o(
I love the lines " I love everything I'm wearing and that's good enough for me." At the end, thats the only thing that matters:-)
ReplyDeleteVix! You can SO pull this off, fabulous outfit! Enjoy the pints! XO!
ReplyDeleteOMG,thanks for pointing out the bag Kandi!It IS a giant purse!!OMG swoon!
ReplyDeleteVix,darling light of my life,I adore this wonderful outfit!How inspiring!That frock is simply divine!!!It all is!Argh!I think Winter is making me feel a bit dull,it's time for a super colour injection!
O,every detail here is superb!
LOVE Helga xxXxx
Absolutely gorgeous Vix! You always look stunning. I wish I had half of your confidence and style. Have a lovely evening! xx
ReplyDeleteLove your super mismatched outfit that does go in its' own way that only someone fab like yourself could pull off! x
ReplyDeleteamazing dress - i just adore the color and print explosion on it!
ReplyDeleteThat outfit clashes in a perfect way!
ReplyDeleteI love it when outfits don't match! There is nothing I enjoy more than mixing different prints or fabrics. A floral blazer with a striped dress...or a shredded denim jacket with a lacy dress. That's what fashion is all about! Your outfit is just proof. You look AMAZING! xoxo
ReplyDeleteLove it vix, i used to have a bag like that with the big clasp purse, i have no idea where its got too! Have fun tonight x
ReplyDeleteToo much is just enough here. Go for it, Vix - Looking great! xxx
ReplyDeleteI love the dress soooo much. I always always wear jeans to the pub, even if I've been in a skirt/ dress earlier. Why? I should follow your lead and reform at once, it is much prettier and more fun
ReplyDeleteDear Vix,
ReplyDeleteI love that dress, it's just so awesomely fabulous!
The moment I clocked the name 'Van Allen' I was on eBay quicker than a rat out of an aqueduct to see if there were any frocks up for grabs at the mo but alas there were none, buhu :(
The colours are lush & the print is just divinely quirk-tastic…you’ve teamed this dress with the perfect footwear too.
Hope you have a fab time doon ye olde watering hole ;)
…xXx
Oh, you look amazing as always. I'm so envious of your lifestyle - midweek popping down the local with a group of mates, sounds bliss. I'm on a low tonight. But then I've spent 2 hours on the phone to India trying to get the reworked laptop connected to t'Internet. Have had a couple of glasses of red to try to unwind but it doesn't seem to have helped. Going to try coffee and Giant Chocolate Buttons. xx
ReplyDeleteThe dress is just the cutest and now I've seen that scarf properly I love it even more! x
ReplyDeleteOh you are a hoot! Love it! And thanks for commenting so often on my blog, it is much appreciated. xx.

ReplyDeleteI love how you've taken so many patterns and colours and made them work so beautifully in this outfit. Bet you drew many an admiring glance down at the pub!
Love all the different prints, love the confidence, love that you don't care if we like it, But, we like it!
