Adamantine.

Bonjour mes amies, hope you are all having a great week. As you all know, I'm somewhat of a style chameleon; although 99% of the time I tend to favour an ultra feminine, chic, ladylike and my attempt at 'sophisticated', look (hey, God loves a trier). For 1% of the year however, I decide to take a break from being the "British Blair Waldorf" (thanks Erica from Café Fashionista for the name, quite honestly one of my favourite compliments ever) and choose to mix it up a bit. 

The day the 1% fell on this year happened to be a day when I felt in the mood to channel my inner rock "I'm with the Band" chic, complete with battered converses, a load of accessories that threatened to topple me over and a "don't mess with me" scowl. I was smiling on the inside though, honest:

 

Oooh, I also wanted to share with you my two new beyondgorgeouscouldntleavetheshopwithoutthemarenttheyadorable? purchases that I bought today. Feel free to join in the lovefest.


I'm sorry but stunning boots, with heels and grip?!?! You mean to say you can actually be practical and fashionable?!?!


Stay safe and chic mes chéries,
English Rose x
Je t'aime you stylish darling. Fashionably yours, English Rose ♥ à 12:41

  11. I try to break my own style mold sometimes, but it just doesn't feel right. It feels like I'm a total imposter. It's fun to see you dressed outside your usual look, but I'm looking forward to the return of the British Blair Waldorf as you call yourself haha!
