Nightwear as daywear?

 

[softgrey]

how is it nightwear?...

whatever it is...it looks fab...

 

[Deborah]

Its a nightie.

 

[softgrey]

wow!...
it must be pretty short if you can tuck it into such high waisted pants...
HOW CUTE...!!!

...

 

[Deborah]

Yeah it does err on the side of lingerie TBH. But I love it too much to hide it.

 

[ChrissyM]

^^i don't blame you

i have a great slip that i contemplated wearing as a shirt tucked into some pants..
i think it will be too much boob though if i wear it to work...
will refrain for now...

but yours looks good!
the neckline with the little ruffle and buttons is quite sweet

Thanks for pinning this thread Softgrey. It deserves more attention, definitely.

Deborah, it really works. You look great and the top looks so cute.

 

[Deborah]

Yeeah thanks for pinning this Softgrey, I am on a self imposed shopping ban and I feel a lot of playing around in my old stuff coming on!

 

[ChrissyM]

^^I hear you on that self imposed shopping ban!
i've been rediscovering my clothes these last couple weeks and feel good that i'm getting more use out of the great stuff that i already have

 

[Deborah]

Ok I have been digging through my wardrobe! Today I am wearing a slip as a top.

And I had a play with this top that I have never worn before.

 

[softgrey]

i was trying to figure out what to do with this dress...

[softgrey]

more...

 

[Deborah]

I like how it is in the last pics!

 

[Hebden]

Oh, I really like the dress softgrey...can I ask where it's from?

I'm trying...and failing...to work these vintage Kenzo floral leggings into my outfits. I like the pattern (when they're sitting in my closet) but once I get them on they just seem a little...

 

[softgrey]

thanks guys...
yeah..i guess the last pics are best ...
but it took me awhile to get there...

heb- it's from a little boutique on shelter island...
it was the only one and i paid far too much money for it...
...so i am determined to wear it as often as possible in order to get my money's worth!..

..

i think you are on the right track with the leggings trying to balance them with solids..
it's such an 80's thing..that cabbage rose print......
so it your top deborah...the tulle with the gold ...
ahhh...memories...
...

 

[Deborah]

Hebden - I like those leggings, I think the blue of the dress looks really nice with it. Mybe if the dress was shorter though? The pumps are a good match too.

@softgrey: I love your last look with the dress!

 

[daisybella]

I'm trying to work out if I should take the plunge and buy a crop top or not...hmm. I wore this round the house for an hour trying to get a feel for how comfortable I'd be in one.

I love this thread!

I think you can pull it off I would never have the confidence to do it but if you feel comfortable go for it.
