Loving Jackets & Coats

Wore this coat today that I got from George at Asda in January for £20. Feel really stylish when I wear it and its ultra slimming and another thing it's a size 12 and I have plenty of room in it.

Walked to my weight watchers meeting today but 1.5lb on this week but hardly surprising as I stopped tracking the past few days. Been feeling a bit low so wanted to eat. New week though so back to it.

On the school Run

 I wore this last week, Maybe a bit over the top for the school run but who doesn't like to feel good about themselves. Wearing my favourite boots from New Look, Aviator Jacket, Gingham trousers with a black jumper. Teamed up with a Lipsy bag I got from Avon (Yes still doing Avon).

Select Trousers £12
Select Jacket £19.99
New Look Boots £10
Bag Avon £13.95
Everything5Pounds Jumper £5

Wow Dress

 

Peacocks have one dress in two patterns. For just £2.99 wow may get both. Amazing value. 

Which do you prefer? Floral print or Palm print.

I love both but only managed to get the palm print as the shopping basket wouldn't add the other one but could be because out of stock already. 

Half Price Sale At Kelly's Box

I'm having a big sale over at Kelly's Box, Scarves, Clutch Bags and Statement Necklaces all half price.

I'm having a clearout of all accessories so I can concentrate on my handmade items. That's what I originally wanted when I started Kelly's Box but got side tracked as I love accessories and thought it would be a good business move but it's taken over the handmade creativity.
 


Check Out all the wonderful accessories at
Kelly's Box at crazy prices

Super Bargain

I was browsing through Asda sale when one of the staff started reducing items even further so I bagged a pair of black skinny jeans for £2 (was £18). Berry sequin jumper £2 (was £16) and a pair of black sparkle heels again for just £2 (was £12). I got a whole outfit for £6 with a hefty £40 saving.

Oh love this shirt from River Island now just £10 originally £25.

Loving the Berry / Wine colours about at the moment but not found much in the sales as yet. I'm also on the lookout for some navy boots which aren't easy to find without a huge price tag.

I couldn't believe these red shoes only £3 in a sale at Office. I never thought I would ever get a bargain like this in there. I love them and they are pretty comfortable, I think I will be wearing these a lot.

Outfit Under £20 - No.14

I picked up a bargain yesterday at Store Twenty One as they had 70% off selected items. This Red and black dress was £14.99 and I got it for £4.49 can't grumble at that.  

Wasn't sure at first as I still have weight to lose, what do you think?

• Leggings (Asda) - £6

• Black Wedges -£? ( I've had these years)

The whole outfit is for £10.49

Friday Fashion

This rainy/sunny Friday we have plenty of sales going on:

• Dorothy Perkins have 30% off everything

• Avon have started a summer sale early

• Peacocks have 50% off select lines

• House of Fraser have a two day event which ends today with up to 25% of brands so better be quick

• I've not shopped at Asos for a while but they have up to 70% off

Selects freebie Friday liked and shared for another week, I love the clutch and jacket but not too sure on dress and those shoes look super high I don't think I could walk in them.

If you are a regular at store twenty one they have up to 70% off selected lines. I'm not sure why but they no longer sell online. 

I picked up a bargain....ok maybe two. This Red and black dress was £14.99 I got it for £4.49 can't grumble at that.  May add to my outfits under £20.

My second bargain was a denim style maxi dress for £5.30 it was originally £17.99. It's a bit plain so I thought I'd up cycle it and add some gems for glamour. I haven't done it yet but I will share once I have. I've been watching a programme 'SuperScrimpers' where they give a budget to spenders and they almost always up-cycle clothes which I think isn't a bad idea so long as it doesn't look tacky.

Happy Friday

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. 

Outfit No.4 Under £20

This was the first time I have worn this outfit even though I bought it last summer as I wanted to hide my lumps and bumps after having my baby but it didn't hide them but now 2 stone lighter (still 1 to go) I felt it was time to wear it. The sandals were also purchased last year and not worn - I'm awful for doing that. Lucky people two posy photos this week.

The Outfit:

• Black jersey maxi dress from Select £12 (last year also came with a rope belt) this year it comes with tan belt.

•  Sandals from Tesco Clothing Sale (last year) at £5

• Tan bow belt from Matalan sale 2 for £2 (black & tan) so counting this as £1
• If we want to add in the Sunglasses they are a cheapy New Look version at £1.99 (last year).

 Outfit is a Grand Total of £19.99 (including glasses)


 I would love to find out what you think out there.
