"Don't tell me what I can't do."

In meta vacation glory and scorched skin even after SPF 1000 sunbgone sunscreen applications to infinity, yours truly is back on blog track and let's be honest, today's inspiration does not stem from any literary work or obscure poetic reference it's just a pair of jeans I dug up from the closet and a fake leather jacket (REALLY?) that was meant to be worn in days of autumnal breeze. 
One of my many talents however, is to defy weather especially summer and on the bright side of things get free weight loss clothing all at the same time! Not a bad bargain you'd think, but do not be fooled by the nonchalance of the sunny season smirks. It was hard and sticky.(pun intended). Nevertheless, in petition for non sweat sartorial miracles I'll just do my thing against all odds. Have I told you that John Locke is my father? Well, he said it all: "Don't tell me what I can't do."

Aw sweetie I love this look and these beautiful summery photos that for some reason to Me come across retro and have this relaxed sense nostalgia, I don't know why but they just do. I love the chic simplicity that this outfit holds, the slouchy fit of your jeans are perfect And your jacket is adorably edgy. Adore adore adore my sweet friend :)

Take care,

Daniella xox

I almost just ordered that jacket in white. Looks great on you! How is the fit, if you don't mind me asking? Wondering what size I should get.

πόσο όμορφες φωτογραφίες. Ειδικά εκείνη με τον ήλιο που βασιλεύει πίσω σου. Το καλοκαιρινό απαλό μαύρισμά σου σε ομορφαίνει κι άλλο! Πολύ όμορφο post.

Not Just A Pretty Dress said...

Dear Eleni, I'm finaly catching up with your post! I hope you had a great break and of course I saw glimpses of it courtesy of Instagram...I think with this outfit, you just gave me a new item to put on my wish list: the jeans are so cool! They have an original shape, but you styled them in such a feminine way! BTW, I saw the jacket at Zara, so pretty!
