Every penny counts

Working the Next Sale it is impossible to avoid this discounted season on the high street. Combine this with just being paid today, my hands are itching to dive into my purse and splash out on some bargains. Clicking through River Islands sale I was inspired by some great pieces hidden among their pages. I really want my money to stretch this month so mocked up some sale outfit ideas to make the purchases worth while. You may have similar items in your wardrobe which you could recycle to make your splurge even better. I love all these items and can see so many outfits among all the sale items. I am loving the bright blue blazer which would also go great with the patterned blouse in the second picture and I am a sucker for all these cute prints. Whats your favourtite? Made any sale purchases yet?

Prints really add fresh air to any outfit and can be teamed with any basic hidden in your wardrobe. These cute skirts are ideal for when the weather perks up and these harem trousers make a bold statement in this current cold spring.
 
I am in love with this bright pink skirt which can be worn day or night. It is so versatile, perfect to bring out subtle pinks in prints, layer up with jumpers or team with ur favourite top for a night on the town.
 

I would love to pull of these skinny jeans! I went through a stripe craze a while back and I feel it may be returning... Again, you could rock this with a crop top for a night out  or a bright colour to avoid the obvious black option. These trousers are great to wear with a denim shirt  as it avoids the whole double denim look that I am sorry, I am just not brave enough to embrace just yet. Denim shirts are everywhere at the moment but this one is cute with its studded collar done up or left open. I love introducing tailored pieces into my outfits and this blue jacket is perfect for smart/ casual occassions. The bright blue is ideal for spring summer, lifting spirits and injecting a new colour into the outfit.

I feel my purse getting lighter...
