School Gate Style @ The Lyric!

So I was working for a couple of days this week but the great thing was that we were based in the Lyric Theatre for the event. What a gorgeous setting. Even though it was work, it was a smart casual dress code so I didn't have to go all corporate thankfully...here's what I wore:





On the first day of the event I wore an Oasis silk ruffle top which I picked up in my favourite charity shop. I paired it with some Tesco cropped skinny jeans. A total bargain at £14. Also wearing my new Deichmann blue pumps which the girls over on Avenue 57 helped me find. 
Avenue 57 is a great site where you can share your daily photo and check out what other women are wearing. There's a lovely community over there so you should go have a wee look!
Also gave my Zara shopper a day out to the theatre...you can pick one up on eBay here. I'll share the second day's look after I've done the school run....better dash!
What do you think of today's look? I love reading your comments every day - thanks for all the feedback x 
PS Thanks to Colette for taking the great photos!

    1. Thanks Anne...these bags are great - mine arrived after no time at all. A bit plasticky smelling but that passed after a day or two. I love a bargain! xx

    1. You're very welcome Fiona...I'm a firm fan of Avenue 57 now. Great for inspiration when you can't think straight to put an outfit together on a busy morning! x

  5. Avril, I feel like I now have permission to wear a shoe that isn't traditionally matching. I am motivated and inspired by your confident flare. I just wanted to tell you that I'm learning so much about going with my gut when it comes to making a strong choice in my outfits. I LOVE your blog, it is my favorite!!!

    1. Thank you Megan for your lovely comment. I've really had to push myself to go with my gut now that I've got the blog. Before I was more inclined to wear similar things day in day out. It's quite a challenge some days but getting great comments like this makes it all worth while. x
