Slacker style

Denim dress: NEW LOOK | Bunny face sweater & silver dino flatform trainers: ASOS

I would pick a pair of Converse over a pair of heels ANY DAY, and yet 'casual' isn't a word I'd use to describe my style.  I own three pairs of jeans, and none of them are your average blue denim colour.  Fashion is fun and playful and imaginative, so why would I want to express myself with a plain t-shirt and a pair of jeggings? (Note: I am not dissing jeggings (well, maybe a little bit), I do realise fashion isn't the focus of everyone's life, unlike mine...) But sometimes you just feel like throwing a few things on without thinking about it - erm, that's bull, I always think about my bloody outfits, but sometimes I like to make it LOOK like the opposite.  I introduce to you: random jumper/sweater thrown over a dress.  With some cool-ass shoes to make it a bit more exciting.  Easy peasy.  My wardrobe is a mixture of staple pieces (see: denim dress/skirt) with more 'fun' items (see: cute bunny sweater), so my outfits never feel boring to me and there's always that 'edge' in them, which I seem to always be drawn to when choosing what to wear.  So this is one of my effortless, just threw it on, no fuss (as far as everyone else knows) outfits.  Nothing special I suppose, but it's easy on the eye and says 'Yeah, I'm totally laid back.  Man.', and to be honest I do actually have a great relationship with 'I-haven't-tried-too-hard' looks.  Just not to the point where it looks like I don't give a crap about fashion because, you know, I do... What's your take on casual wear?  What do you wear on your more 'relaxing' days?
