When I first started at uni, I was completely overwhelmed by the amount of shops I had access to within about a 10 minute walk, having lived somewhere before where I was always at least an hour away from a normal high street shop. So as you can imagine, I probably went a little crazy with my spendings, particularly in Primark as I’d never really been to one before!! But one of the first weeks I was here, there was a student lock in night in Topshop with 20% off. I spotted this leotard then but in a nude/cream colour that I absolutely loved, but unfortunately they didn’t have it in my size, plus I was too wary to try it out then because I hadn’t yet started experimenting with my clothing and I had no idea what I would wear it with. But for weeks after I kept spotting it in the shop, and when it came in in black I knew I had to buy it. And I’m so glad I did, it’s been so versatile over the last couple of years, I’ve worn it as everyday wear with a top underneath, and for going out underneath dresses and with nothing underneath. There are even at least 3 different ways I’ve worn it that I can remember that I’m not posting here (mainly because I haven’t got a proper picture of it then!). But here are the ways I’ve worn it on my blog:
I know what you mean! When I lived in Newcastle I was on the high street everyday. Dangerous for my purse!! You’ve done an amazing job of remixing this item in so many different ways! I love it xx
Wow, that leotard has done its share of wardrobe work.
