Ever have those days where you just really, seriously, honestly can’t be bothered? Yep, today is one of those days. I feel decidedly dull in my grey, cream and black combination… although these cute polka dot tights/socks do cheer me up. As do my blindin’ blue nails. Barry M, I salute you.
I received a little Etsy parcel this morning – something utterly darling from Super Duper Things. It goes so perfectly with today’s outfit I popped it on straightaway and have been admiring it all day. I’ll upload some photos of it in all its handmade glory when I get home.
So maybe not such an off day after all. How are YOU today? Feelin’ fine? Do share.

Loving the matching polka top to socks. Adorable. And those bright blue nails – dazzling. x
You look wonderful as always. No hint of an off day! x
I love the spotty socks! x
those tights make adorable socks, mine got laddered and i never thought to recycle them in that way! love the outfit 🙂
I have that jacket! Does that make me officially stylish? lol!
Great nail colour, I’m looking to go brighter now the weather has finally warmed up.
I’m still noy sure about the cropped tops as they leave my “problem” area exposed. I think i’ll leave them for those with more toned tums like youself.

If this is you on an off day I am extremely envious! You always look incredibly polished- something I can never pull off. x
argh I always have those days at least once a week. You look great anyway!
great idea about helping with outfits ^^
great outfit :3
Considering you couldn’t be bothered I think you look remarkably well put together! I love your used-to-be-tights 🙂
Primark tights cut into socks – why did I not think of this?! Definately going to purchase another pair now 🙂
Also glad you love the brooch I posted on my blog 😀
Loving the dotty socks! Just checked out your Formspring, you’ve given some really great advice!
I rarely see you in jeans… I don’t think I have seen you in jeans at all. But you look freaking awesome in jeans. Love this laid-back and relax look… so very California. xoxo
you look so great in this outfit! love it! 😀
Lovely layers, I feel like I need a cute tee with polka dots now!
such cute bag and ‘socks”! genius! i was going to ask you where you got them from haha
xxjess
Of course we do, I’m sure everyone has off days!
I do adore the dotted crop top and your nail polish colour, so lovely:)
xx
I don’t see this as a “can’t be bothered” outfit at all! I love the clean, tailored look and the matching polka dots. Very well put together Jen 🙂
Loving the blue nails too!

Great idea about the tights into socks.
It’s nice to see a casual little bird, still look fab though.
X x
p.s your comment on my post really made me laugh.
love the socks with those pumps and you really don’t look like you’re having an “off” day with such a fab outfit ;_) xx
I love the socks! Very cute
Also I nominated you for an award on my blog, as I always love reading your blog! <3
Isn’t it funny how people post pics of their “off” days and I always think they look stunning? Case in point here – effortless layering and delicious muted colouring. You look great Jen!
ahh i seem to be having one of those days everyday lately! haha. the socks definitely cheer this up though
very nice, so cute
Perfectly relaxed outfit for an off day! I love the touch with the dotted socks. Wishing you a great weekend, Jen!
I know those days too well. I think this is a great laid back outfit though. The polka dots are cute.
Great look! I really love the color of your nails and the polka dot tights as socks!
I had one of those days myself just last week; nevertheless, you have managed to retain your stylishness. You look phenomenal, Jen! And…I love, love, love, that nail polish – the color is so bright and cheery!! 🙂
I completely know what you mean, and sometimes it’s tricky because I feel like I’ve set myself up as someone who loves fashion and *always* puts effort into my outfits so to not do so would be a travesty!
I lvoew your chilled out outfit though, it’s very cute and interesting while being relaxed as well.
Your layering is awesome! I love that little purse as well 🙂
Love,

I love your ballet flats & I adore the polka dots!
Love the socks – did you just chop off the bottoms of the tights or was there other work required?
oh yes, i have those days..in fact, just last wednesday, i started to photo shoot myself but then stopped at 5 shots because i lacked inspiration…just felt dull at work…hmmm.
love the bag in this outfit soo much!
and of course, the polka too..
