Hazy Sunsets

Recently, one of my closest friends turned 16, and as you do, we celebrated it by all going out for a meal. Usually I'd go pretty (or at least more) formal wearing something like a shirt and tie or casual blazer, but the recent burst of spring inspired me to go a little lighter.
 The cardigan and boots are my 2 favourite things about this outfit. The boots you'll have seen in other OOTD's and their from Dr Martens. We scored a deal on them on Amazon (payed half the price of regular DM's!) (they're still real though) and I couldn't be happier with them! *cheesy grin*. Shoes are the best in terms of fashion because even if your not particularly adventurous with your clothing (like me), then you can easily jazz up your outfit with some funky shoes. The cardigan is a recent purchase (cue THIS HAUL), which I got from H&M on a recent shopping trip to Manchester. As soon as I saw it I loved it. It's just such an amazing colour! I've honestly never seen something like it before. And to top it all off, it was on sale! Too good to be true? I thought so. Luckily though, I hadn't managed to get rid of all my money and so took this home for £10!

I really wanted to try and get into the spring attitude and mindset (a spring clean is definitely needed); starting with my wardrobe. I panicked a bit when I got home as I thought I'd have pretty much no spring colours (I tend to stick to a more monochrome wardrobe) to wear. Luckily though, I had past purchases that are perf for spring (red, blue and white boat shoes anyone? Watch this space!) and now that there's a break in the winter weather of the UK (this week has been unreal so far - please leave me a comment telling me what you've thought of it!), I'll definitely be sporting as many spring colours as possible.

What do you think of this outfit? Have you been enjoying the sunny weather? :)
