26.10.2011- What I Wore Today #4

The events of today only served to confirm something I've thought for a long time- dressing for the Great British weather is one of the most impossible tasks known to man. Rain, wind, snow, hail- we have to contend with it all (usually in the space of a single day!), which can make choosing what to wear a mission in itself...

Dress- Topshop

Tights- River Island

Watch- Urban Outfitters

I'd been meaning to order this dress from Topshop when I first saw it online weeks ago, but when I eventually got around to adding it to my shopping basket, it had sold out. I'd completely given up on it until last week, when I found the one remaining dress in my size in the Oxford Circus flagship. You might call it luck, but to me that's fate- needless to say I snapped it up straightaway. Today I wore it for the first time, and within two minutes of leaving my house this morning, I was soaked (thank you, rain). Luckily, I dried out quite quickly and couldn't be happier with my new purchase. Now I just need to invest in a decent umbrella!
