as the sun's taken itself away for a while, we've approached the awkward rainy-but-not-cold weather, so today i've had to take back to my bedroom to take my outfit snaps to avoid getting drenched – ah well, it was nice while it lasted! today i seem to have thrown together my most '90s inspired' outfit to date, teaming up my choker, docs and mom jeans for an altogether slouchy, somewhat boyish outfit.

i'm going out shopping to a retail park today, so a pair of jeans and a light jacket mean i'll be able to head in and out of shops without overheating too badly and without feeling silly for having worn a skirt with no tights on this somewhat gloomy day, although the fact that the weather's overcast in no way dictates how warm it is out, but hey ho!

jeans: topshop

boots: primark

i lose count of the times i've wandered into topshop, picked up a pair of mom jeans and eagerly dashed to the changing rooms with them only to exit the shop empty handed. it comes down usually to one of two reasons: a) i just can't decide if i like them, or b) i just cannot justify the £40 price tag. i'm guessing it's normally the price that puts me off, because come on, they're expensive.

occasionally i like to have a snoop around on ebay, and when i saw the chance to pick a pair of mom jeans up for just £15, i decided to jump on it because £15 wasn't such a drama if i did decide i didn't like them after all. i sat and eagerly awaited for the postie to fetch them, and when they arrived i threw them straight on and pretty much fell in love. i'm in a bit of a love/hate relationship with my joni jeans, and because of that i was always wary of going for mom jeans in case things were the same with them, but i think i can happily say that what me and my mom jeans have is something much, much stronger than what me and my joni jeans do. true love, i think! very pleased with the jeans, even more pleased with the price. no doubt i'll be reaching for these a lot throughout spring before it gets a little too warm for heavy jeans!
