bolo job










=The style inspirations for this look:



It is a bit weird but its my favourite outfit at the moment, I feel comfortable and confident in it. The basic outfit is all just cheap H&M. I like how the hat (from the Next sale, swish) picks up on the colour in the espadrilles (Kurt Geiger sale, double swish) but the 'key piece' that makes this look current is the little bolo tie and that was of course from... THE SUE RYDER CHARITY SHOP I USED TO WORK IN! I've had it for a couple of years but have only just figured out how to wear it in a way that works for me. I love when you buy something because you like it but have no idea what you will wear it with so you squirrel it away and then years later it is your new favourite thing! I have another 'western' bolo tie bought at the same time which I will blog at some point. I basically love Americana/western/cowboy stuff, I have loooadsss of it (I once got yee-ha'd on the way to work. Twice. By two separate people), I love the kitsch/quirkiness of it. This is a floppy hat rahter than a steston so its thematically confused, but that's probably a good thing.
