Chiffon Backless Blouse | lifeasapetite outfit #21

Boo!

I hope you've all had a wonderful weekend! 

It's pretty chilly outside right? Take care and stay warm, especially those experiencing snow! This is probably going to sound a little strange, but I am so glad that it isn't snowing in London, just because everything would come to a stand still. I mean it will be a bonus to have the day off work etc but with it being quite a busy time of the year it would be annoying to not be able to get certain things done. 

Sorry for being slightly off topic ahaha, this week I am sharing another smart casual outfit idea. As you may know I have a little obssession with cut out back clothes, and this top is the latest addition to my collection.

Smart Casual Outfit Ideas (lifeasapetite)
Smart Casual Outfit Ideas
White Split Back T-shirt
This is just another great way to show a bit of skin without being too revealing. The same goes for the cut out sleeves, plus it makes the top a lot more interesting. The other thing I loved about this top was it being chiffon. Probably quite a strange thing to like, but I really like the material as it is just so feminine and floaty haha. The problem with the split back is that it means tucking in isn't really a great option. But then again it isn't really that much of a huge issue. You may be able to see from the first picture that I've actually tucked in the front part of the top.

Rhinestone Spike Necklace lifeasapetite
I prefer to keep accessories and outfits in general quite simple and this is no exception. I paired it with my trusty black clutch (which I also paired HERE), black jeans and my crazy high boots. Interesting fact: these boots actually featured in my very first outfit post which you can read about HERE if you would like :) Pairing these boots with black jeans also gives the illusion (and makes me feel) of being taller as well. I finished this look with a rather cool necklace. I have been loving more 'edgy' fashion if this can be described as so and wanted a spikey necklace. But as I love my glitter and sparkles, rhinestones was a must. I snapped this beauty up for £3.99 - bargain or what! :)

***
Spike Necklace: Ebay // HERE
Split Sleeve Top: Sheinside // Black or Amazon
Suede Heeled Boots: Boohoo
Zipped Clutch:  Forever 21
Zipped Pocket Jeans: River Island

I hope you enjoyed reading this outfit post! What's your favourite fashion obssession at the moment? Are you a big snow person?

Have a lovely evening, and have a fantastic week - stay warm!
Take care and speak soon.

    That necklace is gorgeous. A bargain too! I love exposing a bit of back flesh too, though perhaps not at this time of year, lol! Tx

    Isabella I love this b/w look on you, it's kinda casual yet chic and somehow sophisticated at the same time. The top is gorgeous, btw! How is fluffy Alfie doing?

    Hey Angella, of course not! Bought this in size S which apparently is a UK size 8. I'm usually a UK6 but I wanted this to be a little loose on me :) I hope that helps, if you need anything else just drop me a message :) Oh, and if it helps at all, I'm just over 5ft :) x
