I recently got this skirt from Oasis and I personally think it's kinda special! As soon as I saw it, I touched the fabric, and said to my husband the typical first two questions. "Do you like it?" then "would I wear it?" I am a shopaholic so need regular sensible in-puts to keep me grounded!! He answered "yes" to both, so it made it to the fitting room. I swooshed around in it (Boomerang would have been proud!) swirling around to show it's fullness... It was a winner! I got so many compliments wearing it too.
Now for a matching top. I didn't want a cotton-style daytime vest as we were going to a lush restaurant where you can dress up. I also felt the skirt's first outting deserved a lil something more...
Oasis had some chiffon-style man-made spaghetti strap vests in their sale. I tried them on. The size 8s (they tend to have a lot of that size left I've noticed, during sales) made my bust look like the Incredible Hulk. The 12s were threatening to fall off, and I couldn't find any in my go-to size; 10s (typical!)
I gave up, preparing to go home and sort around in my wardrobes until I found something suitable. On the way to the car, I saw Miss Selfridge. I haven't shopped there for a while. The last few times I'd tried to, they'd disappointed. My husband spotted a cold-shoulder (totes in fashion don't ya know?!) bright yellow top. We got my skirt out the bag and lo-and-behold - we had a match! I HATED cold-shoulder tops previously. Every time I saw someone wearing one - I thought "WHY?? WHY??!!" But I humoured him.
I loved it!! I was immediately sold.
