Is it me, or does it seem as if summer really could be just around the corner? And, given that we are supposed to have temperatures back up to 20 degrees this week, suddenly I am feeling the need to dig out a nostalgic favourite. The bib and brace, overalls, dungarees (whatever their sartorial name) some, might say they are making a comeback......
Personally, they never went away in the first place.

Add a striped t-shirt, sneakers or sliders for day, silk shirt, fine tank and heels for night.....
Get the look.....

I was so wanting a pic of you in some! I've seen a few rock this look, I've seen a few not!
ReplyDeleteI know its not the perfect look for everyone but I just love them, think its the old tomboy in me!!xx
DeleteThis is so not a look for me but I love seeing others in them, Helen! Lynne xx
ReplyDeleteAh Lynne thanks for that...hey, never say never?!! xx
DeleteThey all look sooo cool in theirs - I can't imagine myself looking good in them at all though lol! Keri x
ReplyDeleteI know they do, I would never look like that either.... its just that dungarees have always been my secret little obsession....!! xx
DeleteMy favourite is Sincerely Jules with her heels and leopard bag ......Looooove. wish I was brave enough to do them, but sadly I would look that a pregnant bill or ben. xx
ReplyDeleteShe always looks amazing doesn't she! I am sure you would look fab in the right pair!! xx
DeleteYup I'm with Annmarie & loving them teamed with heels & a leopard print bag but I don't think it's a look I'm going to be trying. Knowing my luck I'd get them dirty within 5 seconds of wearing them lol!

I know the risk factor with them getting dirty is pretty high...But then they can go in the hottest wash and don't even need ironing!! Now I am really getting into the whole summer hippie vibe! xx
DeleteSadly I am well past this look Helen but love all the inspiration you have here:)
ReplyDelete~Anne xx
I am sure your not Anne! But thank you anyway!! Helen xx
DeleteSuperb inspiration....so many perfect ways to wear them! For once though this is a trend that I am going to let pass me by as for me I think they would have quite a short shelf life judging by a boilersuit I bought, wore and then eBayed last year! As you know ....I am trying very hard to be all about the investment purchase at the moment! :0) xx
ReplyDeleteI've just upgraded to white boyfriend jeans so maybe next year it'll be the overalls! Fab inspiration Helen! x
ReplyDeleteAh thank you ! xx
ReplyDeleteOooh, as lovely as they look on some of your pics here, I really think that this is a difficult look to pull off. Seroius danger of looking like an oversized toddler. This is one trend I'm definitely swerving .. but thank you for the gorgeous images :)
ReplyDeleteI haven't tried dungarees before. All the pics are so inspiring, would have to find the right fit though as I'm only 5'2

Ahh you must go and get a pair...Enjoy the summer wearing them!! xx
