Outfit Of The Month | August | Back in the +852

Life Update 

As you might have guessed already by the title or the fact that i've been here pretty much a month already but, IM BACK! I'm a bit love/hate with this city sometimes but after living away over the past 3 years it's taken me a bit of time to settle back in here. Hong Kong can be a bit wearing at times, from the crazy night life and dramatic events (i.e. getting hit in the face) to the many lunches and brunches. All while I attempt to get my life back together here, which includes a new job! Look at me being all adult... a very rare event indeed. But there's no denying I do love it here really.

I thought it was only fitting to do my first outfit of the month back home with Hong Kong's most iconic backdrop. 

Top: Mong Kok Market 

Skirt: Urban Outfitters 

Shoes: Kurt Geiger 

Necklaces: Forever 21 (choker) Topshop (pendant)

Outfit 

Due to the hot and humid temperatures in the middle of summer here,  it's a little difficult to keep your style without sweating it through. But an off-the-shoulder top makes a great alternative from tank tops which I find myself in almost everyday. I've paired it with two layered necklaces, which have been a theme a lot this month because one just doesn't cut it! I would suggest getting a fancy pair of sandals to live in for the hotter months here as they can be dressed up or down without giving you a load of shoe drama. 

See you in September

Outfit Of The Month | Just July

I'm finally introducing colour back into my outfits!

 And just because I missed out on June doesn't mean i've forgotten about you, don't you worry. 

JULY

This summer has been a bit of a blur if i'm honest. From the moment I got back from holiday I was surrounded by boxes and suitcases as I began packing up my Uni room, attended my graduation and had a sneaky trip up to Edinburgh. Since then i've been travelling around the UK attending family functions, 21st birthday parties and everything in-between. To top it all off my laptop decided to sound like a rocket about to take off. But being busy doesn't mean i've been stressed because summer always manages to put a smile on my face (that was so cringey it hurt to type). So that's my month summed up, now about my outfit.... 

While being constantly on the go, I've just wanted something quick and easy to slip on before dashing out on another adventure. My favorite thing about summer is the effortlessness that comes with just putting on a dress and still managing to look presentable. But obviously the English weather is seriously unpredictable so having a jacket in tow is a must. (On a quick side note these sandals have little tassels on them and I just really like shaking them around)

I'm not usually a big jewellery wearer but when you're in need of adding that little bit (or big bit) extra to a plain dress, a statement necklace is the perfect way. And it kinda looks like its part of the dress, if you forget about the straps and all that! 

Dress: Cotton On 

Necklace: Birthday Present 

Jacket: Miss Selfridge 

Shoes: Primark 

See you in August for another Hong Kong edition!
