Woohoo! A Sale.....Again

 

Alot of high street shops seem to have spring sales on already.

Dorothy Perkins have announced a 4 day sale of added lines. 

I am a big fan of scarfs as they are a great cover up when breast feeding in public so this stripe scarf is a must. 

I like hearts and the colour navy so this jumper is great.

My favourite shop is New Look at the moment who also have a sale on with up to 60% off. I have already made a few purchases from here. 

I spent £40 and bagged:

2x pairs skinny jeans
1x jumper
1x stripe top
1x pair of shoes 
 
If I had have paid full price for this lot it would have cost me £88.95.

BARGAIN!

 Love these purple heels at a bargain £10 were £19.99.

 

 Happy Shopping

 

High Street Clothes £20 & Under

Finally a high street store taking note of budgets, Dorothy Perkins have offers on 100 dresses for £20 or Under, 100 Tops £12 and All knitwear £20 or under. So it's worth a look. Check out my favourites
on offer;

100 dresses for £20 or Under



I would wear these with leggings as they look pretty short and a pair of boots for the day or to glam them up tights and heels.

  100 Tops £12 and under






As I only had a baby 7 weeks ago I need to hide my jelly belly so I would go for these two tops and wear with leggings and boots or ballerina shoes.


All knitwear £20 or under

 
Again to hide my belly I would go for a longer look jumper and these would be great with leggings and boots or ballerina shoes.

Freebies and Sales

This week I bought two copies of Glamour magazine as they are giving away free Benefit make up worth £10-15, so I picked up the Mascara and the Pore perfector...I love freebies.

Glamour has listed 100 dresses under £200

Some nice ones on there but £200 you must be joking I can find dresses that are just as nice for a lot less, but to be fair you will see the odd one under £25.

Withdrawal Symptoms

I haven't been out shopping for a few weeks now especially since starting back at work and hubby being made redundant so really I am not allowed to spend.
I actually walked past My favourite shop Dorothy Perkins on Saturday it even had a 50% off sale banner in the window so I'm proud of myself, I normally think oh I'll just have a look but I didn't even do that and that is saying something......hard times.

I did nip out to Asda today my excuse was 'shall I get tea bags we only have 3 left'. I secretly knew they had another clothing sale that I was itching to go to.
I had a browse picked a few things up but put them down again until I came across a price tag that said £2.50 oh I'm sure that will be alright to spend it was £9 so that's pretty good so I did to fill my hunger of a clothes shop but funny thing is I'm not sure I even like the top.

You may see it in one if my Outfit for £20 posts so keep your eyes open for that one.

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. 

Friday Wish List - Week 2

I love butterflies and polka dots as you may have noticed already from my posts so I'm adding a few more to my Wish List.

Navy butterfly print

Black polka dot ruffle

Navy butterfly print dress from my old favourite Dorothy Perkins, but a steep £29 so I've added to this weeks Want it Win it competition that happens every Thursday.

Unfortunately the polka dot ruffle  dress is sold out it was only £10 in the sale - gutted I didn't get there quick enough.

George at Asda has a sale on....again. You might as well just wait for the sales as they have them so often as it's horrible when you buy something full price then a week later it's half price.

Split sleeve top

Super skinny jeans

Imagine this with some skinny black jeans and heels or maybe pumps for day wear only £3 in sale.
 I'm liking the bright colours at the moment and fancy some bright jeans, I'm not normally a yellow person but i do like these bright yellow skinny jeans £14.  I imagine these with some black wedges and a pretty girly black top or colourful striped top that has black and yellow in it. If not yellow I like the bright blues.

I have to co-ordinate colours as I hate the mish mash of patterns or colours. I'm someone who matches a hairband to a bag or shoes (Mad I know).

Boohoo have some nice dresses at the moment, here are some favourites that are in my basket that I am very tempted with as of course they are in the sale.

Shola Halter Striped Jersey 

This stripe maxi dress also comes in black and white so not sure which I prefer but what a great dress for the summer at only £10.

Chloe Elasticated Wrap Front

Navy is another favourite colour of mine so i'm wondering about this wrap dress as it's a bagain buy at £8.


Boohoo clothes look great on the website but I often have returned items as they haven't always fitted right so I have to like something a lot to buy it.

That's it for this Friday's wish list - please do share your wish list

Come back next week for more.
