New boots and other stuff



As a young whippersnapper (That Was My Age?), I never liked having to wear new shoes. Gleaming white trainers were scraped along the tarmac as I circled the tennis courts on my bike, determined to take the sheen off before home-time. So, aside from the serious Keith Richards-meets-Kate-Moss-backstage-at-a-festival vibe, the lived-in feel of these navy suede boots appeals to my inner teenager. That's Not My Age loves a bloke-ish boot - the perfect accompaniment to my signature, dressed down, jeans and t-shirt-look, who knows I may even let rock chickery rear its messy head and add a leopard print scarf:





The slinky top adds a grown-up spin but my teenage self quite likes this old school t-shirt too:

    Damn you That's Not My Age! I'd been unaware of Hudson shoes before this post, now me and my debit card will be paying them regular visits.

    Gorgeous stuff and the entire outfit will look fantastic on you I'm sure.

    That is one cool outfit! I love those boots so much so that even this flattie-phobe coverts them. xxx

    Was thinking the yellow top was just like a black MaxMara shirt I got years and years ago...and it's MaxMara! I'm excited. Maybe I can find a backup for my old top now.

    Fashion FA & Semi Expat - I know, I know, I've narrowed it down to three pairs but the blue suede boots are my favourite. Just waiting for pay day!

    WendyB - there's a grey marl colourway too.

    That Was My age gave me quite the giggle.
    Oh weren't new white trainers terrifying? They zinged like overbleached teeth.

    Love both shirts. I'm partial to different colors on the body and the sleeves, myself!
