It was years ago and I was scrolling through Collage Vintage‘s latest Street Style post when I came upon an outfit that just struck me. I saved the image to my phone and would keep looking back to it and wonder if I would ever find a similar sweater and skirt.

It took me about two years, but God dammit, find them I did. The skirt I happened upon by chance during one of Lulu & Sky’s banger sales. The sweater – oh Lord, the beautiful Fair Isle sweater that had the same colour scheme – is by Marks & Spencer.

I freakin’ love the outfit. I know the pieces don’t have the exact fit as those in the original image but I just adore the look anyway – plenty of space to hide the food baby, ya know.

To think that I almost didn’t buy the sweater makes me sweat a little bit because it was one of the last pieces in stock. I’ve learned my lesson of not buying something in the sales that I really, really wanted and then it just disappears forever; the design never to be found again. It happened once with a gorgeous pair of indigo cigarette pants and it still haunts me to this day.

Thank you for stopping by! Byeeee…
