What I Wore: Firsts

First off: SORRY. I've been meaning to start posting ever since we got internet over a week ago, but it's insane how time consuming doing 1.5 highly demanding high school programs in your second language while figuring out a new campus and school system and making new friends and still being a reasonably healthy human being. I don't want to sound like I'm making excuses, just honestly explaining why I disappeared. Now, on to what I've been wearing while doing all that:

Jeans, KappAhl; shirt, Seduction; shoes, Fly London; scarf, thrifted; necklaces and earrings, ???

I was, well, pretty worried about starting school here. It is for that reason, and that reason only, that I decided to dress casually for my first day. I decided that I wanted to be comfortable, confident and ready for anything, which is why I didn't break out a dress or complex outfit. Since then I've gotten a lot more confident, but more on that later.

Another first for this post: It's the first time I've worn these shoes on the blog! I got them days before we left, because I didn't have anything versatile and comfortable, but still stylish and wearable. The colour is darker than most of the red clothing I brought, but I like to think that they work anyways

How do you dress for your first day?

Love,
Rosie

  8. You look adorable! I always get too dressed up for everything and end up looking just wrong. Can't help myself, I use any excuse to put on something fancy.
