Boo to the rain and greyness today, although it’s unseasonably warm especially last weekend. I was running around without the need for tights, unheard of at this time usually and it made me think back to this outfit, one of my favourite and effortless Summer looks.
This outfit was my go to for running around town in the Summer, ticking off my to-do list errands (thanks to my favourite straw bag which fits in a surprising amount of things) and also great for catching up with friends. Sometimes it’s just good to keep it simple, throw in a few of my favourite accessories and be ready to head out in next to no time. 
I found the dress in H&M when I’d popped in with the aim to visit the home section and it was a total bargain at under £15. The denim jacket and these fun heart flats were a complete ‘shop your closet’ moment. I love shopping, but lately I’ve been trying to get back into my budgeting ways and it brings me a certain feeling of joy to be able to delve into my wardrobe and find a hidden or sometimes quite honestly, a forgotten gem! The jacket I picked up from Stradivarius years ago on a 2 day stopover in Singapore and it’s been a wardrobe staple ever since. The shoes I picked up in ASOS last year and they just make me feel happy everytime I look down and see them. I’m a flats girl at heart and these are perfect for running around in, they’re just comfty. Just slip them on an go!
