FF: I'm a Lumber-Jill...is that okay?

Yay for the first Fashion Forward post!

I’ve been adoring high-waisted clothes for a while and I saw this tutorial on Readymade and thought it was so cute. I just have to give this a go. Now i’m not one for skirts, mainly because they’re always to short or too long (What can I say? I’m a fussy customer!) but this could quite possibly be a turning point in my wardrobe…

And checked fabric!!!! Omg! If I don’t pilfer my dad’s shirt collection and make myself one of these soon, I swear my brain will sizzle up in its own excitement. Oversized cardi's and billowy tank tops are perfect for this look AND (!!!!) you can funk it up with a belt or heels.

Okay...so here's how you can join in all the fun.

Clair and I will hosting FF together- one month you'll find us here, the next over at Clair's blog. It makes shuffling our hectic lives around much, much simpler! We will always point you in the right direction though :) Playing along is pimpsey simple, just show up here on a Monday and pop a link to your FF post in the boxy bit (see bottom of this post!). If you're stuck for ideas pick out a trend you love from a magazine; a collection of finds from etsy; a set from polyvore, a new accessory you've made yourself... we're a flexible bunch! And you don't have to play along every week if your inspiration has run dry.

OFFICIAL GUIDELINEY BIT :)

Here are a few rules to stick to:

1. Make sure the link you leave leads directly to your FF post, not your main blog page.

2. If you're posting about your own products make this clear to the reader, tell us about your store, the item and why it's current fashion. Please, no hard selling...this is for fun!

3. If you're playing along with us, remember to link back to here and visit other's posts and leave a comment 'cause...well it's nice :)

Yay, lets have some fashion fun <3

love love love
