Back to Work Wear

Second day at work done and these are the outfits I chose to wear on my first two days.

04.04.12

Day One
Dotty Dress from Dorothy Perkins and heels from Tesco Clothing which has been one of my Outfits under £20.
 I added black tights as it hasn't been that warm out there this week. The bag is from Next which I mentioned in my post Next Sale Purchases. 
It may have been a little over the top but never mind I needed to feel my best as it was a difficult day leaving my little man behind with daddy for the first time and all day.


I felt pretty good in this even though I had to wipe the tears away for most of the day.

Day Two:  

05.04.12

Red dress from Tesco Clothing in the sale of course for £7 it was originally £22 which has been mentioned in my previous post What to wear.

I teamed this up with black tights and my birthday boots from Dorothy Perkins also in the sale for £28 which were £60.

I felt nice in this but I'm not sure the picture shows it as a very flattering dress but I think it looks better in the flesh maybe another time I will add a belt or a long funky necklace. 


It's actually quite nice to dress up a little for work than wearing my usual leggings which are great by the way and a godsend while I was pregnant but dresses do make you feel more womanly.

Next Sale Purchases

So what did everyone buy in the Next Sale? I went Saturday as I had a voucher to spend from my birthday.

Jersey Dress

I was looking for a this black and white dress that I hoped I would find in the sale as I mentioned in my Sale Rumour post. It was knowhere to be seen on the rails instore but I just had a browse online (don't know why I did that) and it is on the online sale at £15. So...so tempting but it says it should be dispatched within 6 weeks, that's too long I might not like it then, or what if it looks rubbish I may not be able to take it back.

Stripe Skinny Jeans

 My Buys:

These were a risk but something dragged me to them and I couldn't put them down. The picture doesn't do them justice but they are red skinny jeans with thin black stripes. I got them home and they look great a little tight around the waist but as my hubby said nothing but a little exercise will sort that out, he likes them so I think they are keeps. They were £32 and in the sale at £16.

Black Spot Bag

I also found this brilliant black bag it was £28 but reduced to £14 it was the only one there and it has polka dots ha! This will be my new going back to work bag.

Spot Metallic T-shirt

My final purchase was this Spot Metallic T-Shirt, it was £18 reduced to £8. I'm not 100% sure on this because of the colour but it was one of those items I didn't want to put back. If not 100% sure should I take it back? 

I said to myself a few months back do not buy anything that you aren't sure of, don't need or doesn't make you feel your best. I don't think I listen to myself.

Oh dilemma's and decisions.

Just A Rumour

Rumours are going round that there will be a 50% Off sale at Next this weekend no confirmation given but keep an eye out if you love to shop at Next.

Glad I waited to spend my birthday voucher now as the dress I wanted and can't find in store anymore just might be in the sale :-)
