OUTFIT FORMULA
If you know me, you know I don’t mind mixing and matching and experimenting with bold pieces for a look that’s unexpected and fun. That said, we all have days when getting extra creative with our wardrobes is just. Too much. Effort. This is when I reach for a jumper and jeans, and then for a little pep I layer with fun vintage accessories like this crochet Baker Boy hat picked up at a vintage fair (So Last Century) and this handmade crochet bag that pops with colour so it feels different every time and elevates this everyday combo!
