Outfit Of The Day: Tribal Skirt & Devil Shoes

You're probably all wondering why I titled this OOTD 'Tribal Skirt & Devil Shoes' but it will all make sense if you read my waffle at the end of this post.  

It's been a glorious day today so I thought I'd make the most of it and wear some of my lovely summery clothes. I have a wardrobe full of unworn summer clothes so I'm trying to wear them whenever I get the chance to. I heard on the grapevine that the nice weather ends on Friday (my 21st birthday *cries*) so I'm going to try and wear some of my summer clothes this week! 

Anyway, enough the summer clothes tale, here's what I wore today! 









Denim Jacket: Topshop, Sheer Top: Topshop, Crop Top: Topshop, 
Maxi Skirt: River Island, Ballet Pumps: Primark, Necklace: Forever 21

I have been wanting to wear this skirt for a while but because it's literally rained non stop since April, I've not been able to. A skirt in puddle situation would not be sexy at all.
When I saw that it was cracking the flags this morning I jumped at the chance and popped the skirt on. It's a lovely maxi skirt but I can't help but think I look like a tribal warrior when wearing it. The skirt has a split at either side so if I spread my legs apart I look like something from Zorro. Despite the 'Zorroness' it's a nice skirt and it's perfect for wearing in the hot weather as it's nice and breezy.

Also, as you all know, I love mint green and I especially love my mint green ballet pumps as they're such an amazing colour but the one thing I don't like about them is that they feel awful, I wouldn't be surprised if they were made by the devil. No matter how much you try and 'break them in', it will just not happen. They are the most uncomfortable shoes ever and they leave you with massive blisters... attractive. The only reason why I put them on is because they matched my top and necklace so well. In future I'll be wearing them when I'm only going to be out the house for half an hour.

I really liked this outfit and this is mainly due to the mint greeness, however, I slightly regret wearing a sheer top over my crop top as I've been boiling all day. In hindsight I should have left the denim jacket and sheer top at home.

Have you made the most of todays glorious weather?
