Day…twenty eight

Top: Topshop   Trousers: H&M   Shoes: Primark   Watch: River Island

Think my challenge for next month might be to stop wearing so much black, but it's so easy! So classic and so good to wear!

To be…bold

Another one from back in the home town, apparently today it is still like the above sunshine whereas here it is gloomy gloomy :(. As I said in my previous post was definitely having a monochrome mood for the trip, which was bizarre considering how nice it actually was…a great time to break out some colour and florals, but no, I'll instead go for the black and leather look!

The plimsols I have hunted for ages since seeing a pair online at River Island that I went to get and had gone! Finally found these ones on the Office website, here, and after quite a few weeks finally got them through so had to take them with me too! Find similar ones, here, and, here.

Where…to be

Have been seriously neglecting the blog this month, have so many ideas and things to show but other things seem to keep getting in the way. Not all bad, though have been fighting off this horrid cold, mentioned in previous post, for bout three weeks now. Eventually caved and doctored it so should hopefully be on the mend now! Also last week finished work project and then got promotion so have been bit crazy finishing off and starting new bits there and this week have just sorted out new flat - am already planning how to decorate before it's all even been finalised!

Today has been spent running round sorting bits for that, grabbing bits for Christmas and, if you have seen Twitter/Facebook feed, ogling the many beautiful doughnuts at Krispy Kreme! (A box of them may have found its way home with us). So many shiny things in stores right now, getting ready for those Christmas outfits, shall do a few favourites soon. You know me and shiny things...can't stay away for long!

Oh no...I broke

 

Shirt: Topshop   Trousers: H&M   Boots: New Look   Watch: River Island   Bag: H&M   Scarf: H&M   Bands: H&M   Ring: Topshop   Bra (just seen): H&M

Feel little bit ashamed that I broke in my challenge not to buy new things but when I saw someone with this shirt on I had to find out where it was from and it started a bit of a spree that saw me getting the bag and scarf too with the view of wearing them all together. Damn the loose fit, sheer fabric and racer type back was just too darn tempting!!! 

The bag is similar to the Celine style shoppers, here, or Zara have other versions, here, or check out the other colours available from H&M, here. I thought the scarf looked really good tied round the bag with its contrasting colours and then when I got home to find the spring 2012 catalogue there was an image in there with the exact same colours/items (picture on twitter). I am going to try again through March not to spend anything on clothes and it has taught me that there are probably already things similar to new items I like in my wardrobe already when I actually bother to go through it, might have to get the sister to hold onto the bank card though, just incase!
