My Second Birthday Outfit

I actually went out to lunch twice on the week of my birthday and this time we went out to a new place called Cosy Club. We sat outside on the balcony and it was really beautiful. I’ve become quite fond of this Sparkle & Fade top as well now, it’s really comfy and I like it paired with these shoes.

I’m wearing 7 For All Mankind Gwenevere jeans in Zuma Sunset, a Sparkle & Fade jumper/sweater, my Urban Outfitters wedges and Deer necklace, Betsey Johnson sunglasses and my Mulberry Alexa clutch in Powder Sparkle Tweed.

This is actually my Alexa’s first outing. I’ve read loads of things on TPF about how delicate it is and how you need to be really careful with colour transfer. I wore a light pair of jeans which have no colour rubbing off issue but I still managed to get a small blue stain on the back of the bag unfortunately. I think not getting colour on the Alexa is going to actually be near impossible which is upsetting but I love the bag so much, I really want to wear it and not have to worry.

    Love the bag with the outfit, it’s so sophisticated but that stinks that it still transfers color even with light denim.

    Very nice outfit, the jeans fit you perfectly. Its such a shame about the transfer on the bag though. I’d be scared to use it!

    This bag is soooo cute πŸ™‚
    Your whole outfit is so simple and the main colours are so muted but the Alexa clutch and the other accessoires really make it special. Though I always wonder how you are able to walk on these wedges and high heels. I start taggering on heels higher as 2 inches ha ha. But they look really great on you.

      Thank you!! These wedges are actually fine as they are not steep, I think it’s about a 2 inch steepness or so but they do give me blisters on my toes as I found out lol! Painful. The other wedges are generally not that high when you consider the platform πŸ™‚ But the heels I am not really any good at walking around in for a long period of time πŸ™‚
