this outfit is half thrifted, and half target.

i originally wanted to do a mini remix for this trip. an 8 in 8 was what i was thinking. we did pack quite light, as jake and i shared a suitcase, but ultimately, i did end up with more than 8 pieces, although some of them were unnecessary (i packed a pair of comfy heels, but still never wore them. i should probably learn from this, as i don’t mind swapping heels for ballet flats or oxfords in a nicer dressed situation, both of which weigh less/take up less space, and there were two items that i only wore once).

i keep expecting this white tee to die on me, as white tees have such a limited life as truly white tees. i thought this day would be it’s last as i managed to express my indian food onto it at dinner, but then! it came out in the wash! the white tee lives on. other outfit notes: i love copper nail polish! but this particular nail polish (china glaze) takes like 5 coats, and was tacky & moveable for 24 hours. after that it was hard as rock, and wore like a rockstar! also, i stole the red lips + camel sweater idea from audrey.

i took a comprehensive amount of pictures at this location (clifton downs), including a panorama of the view, which i am trying to wrestle into a gif with photoshop. it’s going to take me a little while, as this is my first try doing it this way, so:

    So there’s a part of karachi that we spent quite a bit of time in called Clifton – I’ve always known it was named by the british, but it’s so surreal to see the place it’s named after – somehow I assumed Clifton was a last name, not a literal town on a cliff…..Gorgeous, though :)

  2. Oh, so pretty!

    I can’t wait for the gif and the subsequent posts :-D

    Love the copper nail polish too! And the lip colour too! Personally I can’t really wear lip colours without the skin on my lips going crazy but yours looks perfect!

    Love the red lip and beige sweater, perfection! I wore a very similar shade of polish on my toes all summer long. Copper ftw!
