Twiggytastic
I have been called Twiggy far too often than I care to remember, and it’s not always a compliment. However, ever since I got my pixie hair cut I’ve begun to LOVE that style and the sudden availability of pinafores in the stores is helping me along nicely.
| From Style Per Diem |
The pinafore: By now it’s almost predictable with me – this is a dark navy H&M pinafore with curved exposed pockets and an exposed zipper in the back. I ABSOLUTELY LOVE pinafores/tunics like this.
The shirt: Classic white collared shirt, also H&M. It actually has breast pockets and corset seams.
I paired this with black tights and grey wool socks, the ribs peeking out just above the edge of the boots.
The boots: My irreplaceable Hush Puppies. This is their last season. *tear*
Accessories: I put on a long chain with several charmsĀ and these awesome dragon ear-rings. They’re tiny enough not to be goofy, but goofy enough to make me happy.
I later wore this outfit with tan tights, matching tan ribbed socks and my ruffled t-straps. I unfortunately didn’t get a picture. Yes I’m still wearing socks with high heels. I still think if they’re done right, they work.
Luckily, I have a pattern for a pinafore like this and I plan on making several variations this summer.

Aarti – I actually picked them up at a museum! they’re made by an artist in Montreal I think and the brand is apparently “Stick Man”.
Thanks Aditi!
