Now - I'm starting to realise I have a massive shopping problemo!
But every girl does right? And holiday is soon so I have to ...
Im going to give you a quick run down of my recent purchases some of which I'm totally in love with and are also complete steals! (So get your bank cards at the ready!)
TOPSHOP
I blooming love Topshop but it really does annoy me how over priced somethings are and for only a bit of plain material most of the time. So I'm dead chuffed with my sale buys...
My first buy is this gorgeous Olive green (which is my most favourite colour) satin cropped top. I know we're in spring and Olive green is the worst colour for this time of the year BUT, I wanted it ages ago but just couldn't justify paying full price (£32.00) for it, so when I saw it in the sale for £18.00 I was over the moon.
It looks lovely teamed with leather pants or a leather pencil skirt because it hangs really well and some court shoes. Definitely something high waisted as the top isn't full length. It also has a little do up button on the back which is quite a nice touch. I would suggest an up do with this top and a pretty earring or statement necklace, also with nicely contoured make-up, a winged eye with maybe some MAC eyeshadow in the shade 'Sumptuous Olive' and a nude lip it would finish this look off perfectly.
Next up is this playful little skirt. I don'd have any pleats in my wardrobe so I thought I may as well buy this considering it was another steal from the Topshop sale. Was £40.00, Now £15.00. Again it's a high waisted and dark number (I can see a pattern appearing...) however the pleats, metallic colour and it being high waisted tones it down a bit and makes it a bit more girly and less harsh. I'm still yet to wear this out but I am excited to! I would probably team it with something black up top (surprise surprise) and some block heels. I actually love the shoes they have on the model so I may have to purchase myself some of those, I have seen some similar and probably half of the price in Linzi to wear with it more casually.
ZARA
So, everyone loves Zara and if you dont - you're weird.
Shoes, bags, accessories, clothes, perfume, it really does tick every box. Somethings in Zara are a little pricey but usually you can find some lovely bits for a reasonable price. Perfect example are my next two items. I have needed some block heeled strappy shoes for ages but couldn't find any that I liked and dun dun duuun, Zara comes to the rescue. £29.99 is an absolute bargain for a shoe you know you will live and die in right? I've worn these a few times and they are super comfy. What with them being a chunky heel there is no danger of toppling over and they are quite easy to walk in especially with the ankle strap too (extra keeping the shoe on safety). You can never go wrong with a classic black shoe.
Here I have my first summer purchase! I have ZERO nude shoes flat or heeled so HAD to buy these. They are a beautiful soft leather with a shaped strap over the front of the shoe which I find makes your legs look longer and your feet look nicer. The heel is chunkier than the norm and aren't incredibly high so they are relatively easy to walk in. These look great with all kinds of outfits, long skirts, midi skirts, culottes, cigarette pants the list goes on, so these are definitely one to have in your wardrobe and they wont break the bank in doing so! (Also have them in black too!)
H&M
I absolutely LOVE H&M they have everything in there, lovely jewlery, bags, purses, skin care bits (their face mask are actually good), gym wear, and not to mention all the lovely clothes. I think H&M is great for work wear too as most of their clothes can be dressed up or dressed down. they are starting to bring out a collection line which is more expensive than the usual H&M buys but the clothes are gorg so I guess it's worth it.
Here are some recent buys for work that I would highly recommend.
LOVE these skirts, there are so smart and feminine for the work place. Comfy and very summery which we are all trying to make that slow transition from winter clothes to summer. I bought it in the pink and the beige as I'm trying to brighten up my wardrobe! They are quite adaptable so go with most tops that you want to put with it.
This dress is so cute. I love yellow and the style of this is really lovely. Some more pleats added to my collection! The turquoise in this dress is also lovely. I bought a navy cardigan to go with this and am currently trying to find a patterned blazer to dress it up a bit.
tReds
Finally my last item you will be pleased to know. I don't know how widely spread these stores are but one cropped up in my local town. It's kind of like a Schuh. Anyway, I quickly went in there with a friend and these jumped out at me. I love a court pointed shoe, I have them in all colours ... Except nude! They are a suede material which I prefer to patent even though they're harder to clean! The heel isn't too high at all so they are perfect to walk around work in. I would definitely add these to your collect!
Hope you enjoyed browsing through my shopping basket! I have linked everything on here so you can buy yourself!
