So over the last month or two I frivously dug into my purse and let loose on the high street. Yes, I went a bit YOLO and here is part one of my spending splurges.
Yellow shoes – I
always love getting heels in the sale, seems so much more worthwhile of a
spend and these add nicely to my collection of brightly suede shoes for just £15! I have got a few pairs from the Next sale now - both the pink and lilac shoes in this picture actually, all proudly lined up on my display unit in my room. I highly recommend the Next sale (I swear I am not being biased working there) everything is 50% or less and you can always guarantee there will be something you will like. Just make sure you get there nice and early to avoid disappointment. Doors normally open at 5am....no joke.
These rings were also victims to my shopaholic behaviour. The knuckle ring was purchased from Dolly Bow Bow after I fell in love with the brand during my work experience at B Public Relations. Selling vintage inspired jewellery and accessories this certain piece is similar to the YSL knuckle ring. The other - a set of two rings was picked up from the Next sale for about £3 - bargain! I love jewellery sales :)

Topshop shorts – I went through a
bit of a pastel phase and was on the search for a pastel skater skirt for when
it was hot. However, when I saw these two shorts in the Topshop sale I thought
they were just as good, if not better! Shorts are always have a big thumbs from
me as the tend to be a lot more comfier as you don’t have to worry about
exposing your undies on the tube or in the wind. The shorts didn’t fit as well
as I had hoped, they sit a little high waisted which normally would be ok but
they then ride a little high which makes me feel a bit self conscious. I think
if i'm honest, I wish I had tried them on but they were too good of a bargain
and I’m too lazy to take them back. I’ll just have to loose a bit of weight to
make them fit better ;)

Aztec top – I Brought this top in the New
Look sale, as soon as I saw it I thought it would go nicely with the lilac shorts.
That’s all I have for this bargain story - quick and easy does it.
Blasia Sequin collar vest blouse – As a sucker
for PR my internship at B public relations lead to an detrimental shopping
spree at Missguided. As you know, I already loved the brand but spending so
much time among the rails meant my fingers were itching to get onto the website
even more than usual. I love chiffon blouses as you can dress them up or down
and they strike a good balance between girly and sophisticated. I chose this one
to add a bit more colour and sparkle to my wardrobe. I have worn it down with
jeans and intend to wear it with one of the pastel shorts when the sun creeps
out.
What do you think to my recent buys? Has anyone else been spending the pennies? New purchases always give me a new sense of inspiration and that little bubble of happiness. Dangerous, but so worth it.
