WEDNESDAY BARGAINS



  
 SALE
Shoes, Dune
Blazer, H&M

Not usually my choice of colour for shoes due to the fact there silver but I just couldn’t resist these shoes. What a bargain when I picked them up the price stated from £35 reduced to £17 the best part about it was when I went to the till and the teller rang them in at £11. WOOOP WOOOOP. I purchased the shoes from the new range Head Over Heels in Dune.

Peplum blazer purchased from H&M sales, yet another bargain reduced from £29.99 to £10 the jacket itself is closely fitted and tailored so this can be worn for formal or casual occasions.

MILAN/CHANEL

A girl should be two things:classy and fabulous 

Coco Chanel





Sophisticated, delicately embroidered in gold, elegant, enchanting and exquisite. This is my first timeless piece of CHANEL that is now acquainted with my wardrobe, purchased in Milan.

Look for the woman in the dress. If there is no woman, there is no dress.

MILAN/OOTD2


 Dress, Jane Norman
Jacket, River Island
Earrings, Saffron

Okay so this big deal for me if you know me well enough you will know that I never ever where silver accessories! That all changed when I purchased these Cinderella flats in my favourite place, China Town. I’m still in love with the one colour look so as soon as I found out my mom had a dress the same colour as my duster jacket it was a must. If you want to add touches of glamour to a casual look this colour or similar I definitely recommend silver accessories.

MILAN/OOTD


 


 Dress, Forever 21
Shoes, Office
Bag, Zara
Earrings, New Look

As the shops in Milan are never ending, shopping takes up a whole day which is obviously heaven to me and hell for my boyfriend. These copper metallic heels are a pain to style fortunately I found this dress hiding in my wardrobe which fit it perfectly. I’m quite petite 5ft so an ankle strap usually makes my legs look shorter than what they are however I’ve noticed that this only the case when I wear a dress above the knee or just below. If you are petite like me and having trouble with styling an ankle strap shoe my advice is to keep the length of the skirt/dress mid-calf preferably worn just above your belly button and you will see that the length of the skirt against a short top gives the illusion of longer legs so an ankle strap is a yes for us petite ladies.
Less is more always and with any halter neck I recommend either a pair of statement earrings or a statement necklace, never both as it looks too busy on the neck area and loses all shape of the garment.  If you have done this in the past, leave it in the past.
