Alice Isn't Dead

I think I have a mild obsession with everything Alice right now. It has been my biggest inspiration lately. There's something so quirky about that book that has always enticed me; grudgingly, I have to admit that Topshop's wonderland collection is rather great. (Even though I'm not convinced I will buy anything from it - the thing is with Topshop (the same as Primark or any high street store) is that you buy something from there and risk running into someone wearing what you've just bought the next minute. I don't mind a few pieces from there but I definitely don't understand girls that go and buy their whole wardrobe there every season!)

Anyway, I think these shorts have a sort of Alice feel to them - and they are just so versatile! I'm afraid I shall wear them to pieces this autumn.

Old outfit, but I like it:
