After ages of wanting to go see the movie, we finally went to see Lucy last weekend. The film was a bit ridiculous but we enjoyed it nonetheless. And there was footage of wild pigs at one point, so of course that gets my steal of approval. I especially loved the idea of being able to use the full capacity of one’s brain. That would make learning French much easier, I am sure. Anyways, this what I wore.

Addicted
You know when you find something that you absolutely love and you just can’t stand to part from it? Definitely the case with me and this bag – I love it to pieces. It’s an old Mango quilted circle bag with a lovely gold chain and I have been constantly wearing it lately. (I also wore it yesterday with a different outfit, which I’ll post soon.) I do not have any issues with wearing this bag over and over again, but the problem is that it is starting to show it’s age and I will need to buy a new one soon. This outfit, worn last Wednesday, features quite a few of my favorites: my newest leather jacket, an old black knitted dress, my black pashmina scarf and of course, the shoes.
101!
Oh my! I can’t believe my last post was my one hundredth! Anyways, to celebrate I have another post for you today, featuring an outfit from this Friday. This outfit revolves around my Ramones tee. The Ramones will probably always be one of my favorite bands ever. It would be hard to pick just one favorite song from them so I’ll just share a few that I really love:
My Obsession
To start off I have a photo from a photoshoot I did a while ago (it was right before I got my Mr.Pig tattoo). The brand is called My Obsession and the clothes are very provocative and sexy. Then I have an outfit from the end of July, when we went to see a summer Shakespearean adaptation and it was a horrible rainy day but otherwise it was an interesting experience.
Forgotten Outfits
These four outfits have something in common – they’re all from July and I hadn’t posted about them yet. It’s not that I think the outfits weren’t nice or anything, it’s just I’m not 100% happy with the photos. Funnily enough, looking at the photos together has brought to my attention that they also have something else in common too – they are all below-the-knee length. Anyways, I was going through my photos on my computer and I thought it’d be a shame not to post them, so here they are…
Mon Cowboy
This outfit is from Sunday and was created around this leather jacket. (I bought the jacket in Camden for ten pounds, crazy!) I knew I wanted to wear the jacket (it’s finally the perfect weather for it) and so I went for a very simple outfit underneath – t-shirt and a black cardigan, skinny jeans – then it was just a question of shoes and bag:
Thrifted shopper
This outfit is from Saturday and it’s one of my favorite outfits that I’ve worn lately. It was one of the final hot days of summer (well at least half of the day was quite warm), so I decided to wear one last bare legged look. We went to the vegetable market and bought loads of lovely veggies, so I wanted something comfortable but still interesting. I first chose the dress. It’s an old thrift store find but funnily enough, I had never worn it before. It used to be a bit too big (and still is a tad) but I felt it looked quite nice. I really like the skirt part of the dress (the top part is actually really boring). I love the color of the dress and the texture, it’s like you’re really wearing gold. I wanted to stay with a gold theme but also keep things casual. There was walking involved so I was definitely going to wear a flat shoe, I chose this pair of sandals because it’s still casual but there is some sophistication as well. And the gold studs went nicely with the dress.
Transition Almost Complete
I may have mentioned once or like a million times that it has gotten autumn cold here in Prague. Cue in the transition wardrobe – layering is key. I love a longer top with a cropped leather jacket over it. Then just a pair of skinny jeans and ta da, you’re ready to go. This outfit is from exactly one week ago. Though I do really like this outfit, I absolutely dislike the photos. My phone doesn’t take good quality photos when it’s dark 😦
WIW
The title of the post basically says it all (WIW = What I Wore). The photo above may be super old, as is the dress, but I re-wore it this week (without managing to take a new photo). But then again, I’ll use any excuse to feature Mr. then-tiny Pig. (I also adore this photo because we seem to have the same stupid expression on our faces!) Anyways, the dress is H&M and it has pockets. This time around I wore it with a black thin belt and my current favorite flat shoes:
Never Ending St..udying
Maintenant, je passe mon temps avec le français – en approchant le test! Je suis nerveux mais aussi fatigue. On est difficile d’être un étudiant… But enough french, my head hurts. This outfit is from last Friday and I wore it to work and to the library, hence the study reference (I have a little less than a month and have basically just started studying so if what I wrote above has some mistakes, at least I tried…), I liked my outfit though I must admit, it was minimum effort.
Very Veronique
