AW13 - Vinspiration



We may all be feeling the painful withdrawal symptoms from household favourite, Downton Abbey - along with its tear-jerking tragic moments, but don't despair, the good old high-street has come to our rescue and introduced a range of Downton Abbey inspired garments to keep our tears at bay. So while we give our tissues a break, the Victorian inspired pieces currently in stores like Miss Selfridge, enable us girls to combine our love of both fashion and our love of the 1900's lady-like, feminine garments worn by the likes of Lady Mary. 

I have selected a few of my favourite items below, which combined with the right accessories and shoes can be brought up to date and into the 21st century.

All from Miss Selfridge:

Pale Blue Peplum Shirt
I love this pale blue chiffon Victorian inspired peplum blouse. Its feminine, girlie and flattering for the figure, so at £32, its the perfect investment for your AW13 wardrobe.

Khaki Victoriana Tee
This antique green lace peplum top is extremely pretty, and can be modernised with a rock-chick leather biker jacket and a midi skirt. Very classic and girlie. £26

Cream Lace Maxi Dress
This maxi dress is the essence of vintage elegance and perfect for any special occasion. You will most certainly turn heads in this number. £75

Petites Victoriana Top
A classic vintage style top, that again can be brought up to date with some leather skinny jeans. £32

Allover Lace Peplum Shirt
£39

Embroidered Midi Dress
£47

Star Embroidered Mesh Dress
This is a very pretty, girlie, embellish detail dress, that can be given an edgy twist with the addition of a biker jacket and boots - £39

Lace High Neck Dress
Simple yet elegant, this is prefect for work and simply add some boots and a leather jacket to achieve a funky AW13 look - £29

Happy Shopping = ) xx
