EVERYDAY BILL.

When trying to come up with an idea for day 2 of Billie week, I received a rather life changing comment from someone. I wont lie, it hurt, who could have thought that 8 little words could do so much damage to my fragile self-consciousness. If you haven't guessed it already, I was told that I was the most mainstream girl that said person knew. It was like a dagger to the little place dedicated in my fragile heart to my passion for fashion. Anyways, I had a lot to think about after hearing that and came to the conclusion that if others were going to consider me mainstream, I would just have to embrace it and what better way would there be that showing you all my everyday, as hard as it may be to say, mainstream look.

If you can bear to look at the pictures above you'll see the layers that consist of today's outfit. Rather boring I must admit, but I can't give up much of the precious 20 minutes that I have each morning before I leave the flat. If you would please direct your eyes to the first image, you'll see me, staring down at my tshirt as if it's the most interesting thing in the world (it's not, but if you pull your top down like so it makes you look a lot slimmer). I was given this top by my sister about a year ago and I've loved it ever since, I would definitely say that it's one of my staple tshirts, even if I don't wear it enough. Now, as you start to look towards the foot of the image, you'll see black tights and a black H&M mini skirt, essential to every wardrobe. There's not much else I can say about them, because they are so important to own.

In the next image, you'll see the same outfit but with a little addition. I can't tell you how long I've been trying to style this baby but I suppose today was my lucky day and I had the genius idea of going really basic for once (as basic as I can go). I suppose when I decided to put this baggy tank top on, I was trying to go for the female Morrissey* look, without coming off as extremely pretentious.

Onto the third and final picture, you can see the most crucial items of my wardrobe, my beloved coat and boots. I honestly don't know what I would do without them because I do literally wear at least one of them every day. Neither are particularly attractive, but they do make my outfits mine and not just any old cliché. That said, I don't think that everyday people pay that much attention to what I wear, but it would be a lie to say that I don't make any effort, so to those who notice my clothes, thank you. B.x
