Sheer Gear

I do like the sheer look, but it can be tricky to know where and how much sheer you want going on in an outfit. There's a very thin line between a little skin, and than showing people where your bra is from -if people know the brand, you have probably failed and should seek a vest immediately. Today (yesterday) I decided to brave it, I went for a lace detailed sheer top and layered it so that the main 'naked' part was just at the top. Due to my legs looking less than summer ready -pale and brusied from tripping on my son Corben's toys, I worn these rather groovy tights. Sorry did I just say groovy, I think I did!

These stripy tights is what I meant to say, my brain is like mushy pea soup I don't know if it's the heat but I keep mixing things, words, items and even my kids names. Am I the only one who's brain can't handle heat well? Anyway I love these tights, they show a little peekaboo of pale thighs but not enough pale to make people I meet want to fake tan me!

Shorts: Topshop via eBay

Tribal ring: LLYMLRS shop

Had a big sort out and switched my makeup case into my jewellery case, I just wanted to down size all my makeup. I'm back on my 'use what you have first than buy new stuff when you need it'. It's far better to have fresh product that your going to use, than product that you have had forever, I know if it's sealed it should be okay but still it seems grim. Plus I only have one face, and having less will mean I can change up my look far easier than trying to work your way through mountains of product. So this month is now a clothing/makeup ban, I want to cry as I have seen things I want need already!

Are you banning anything this summer? Does the heat affect your thinking? -no just me :P

  3. That is such a lovely top - the lace detail is a great touch! Those rights are awesome, though I'm sure no-one will judge your pale legs (to hell with them if they do!). I wish it was hot enough up in Glasgow to be affected by the heat - its rained all bloody week! Haha xo
