I am also very aware that my shopping hiatus is over! After 2 weeks of non-shopping I have finally broken and bought the following t-shirt off the Topshop website. I couldn't find it instore and saw that online most of the sizes are selling out including size 10 which is what I usually have. Even though I am not a 12 I bought it hoping it will fit and just be a baggier fit. I figured it's easy enough to send it back to the Store anyway for a refund.
I also couldn't help myself and bought two bows from Topshop. I don't know what I'm going to do with them and feel a little guilty as I could have probably made them myself. Oh well. I got a black satin one thinking it would look cute on a white shirt for future job interviews.I'm off to meet my friends in the pub later for a bit of a catch up and some food! So I decided to dig out a skirt I got in Hong Kong. I love the shape of it because it is cut in an almost rectangular shape and drapes really nicely as well as it looking nice with the straps worn down too.
I'm wearing...
Dress worn as a top (Therapy)
Skirt (Bread and Butter, HK)
Necklace (HK)
Shoes (Stark)
I really love the rocking horse necklace and was bought for around £2.50 in HK. Not suprisingly for the price, the gold has started to fade into a bronze colour but it still looks alright. I also thought I would show you a photo of my bag bought from HK too. It's Vivienne Westwood and I assure you I haven't fallen into the trend of being Chinese and buying into the Westwood brand. It's funny because the Asian countries really love her and so when I saw the 50% off sign in the window I couldn't resist. It's such a nice shape too!
Photos may be a little scarce as my own camera is on it's last days and I broke my parents camera this morning. I stupidly dropped it when the lens was fully extended. I am so annoyed with myself!
i LOVE topshop!!! and you're right, NEVER walk away from a bargain :)

ReplyDeletecute, cute, cute! I'm glad to read your that back spending, someone's gotta push the UK economy out of an impending recession.
ReplyDeleteCute outfit! I do the same thing when shopping. I also pass up on amazing vintage finds because the price is slightly higher than I had in mind to spend. Sigh, I always regret.
ReplyDeleteI adore the Vivienne Westwood bag!
ReplyDeleteYou have a really beautiful wall! & wow, a topshop denim jacket for 2pounds?! Lucky you! :) & you look geeat as well :)

ReplyDeleteI always have a hard time walking away from a bargain, it hardly ever happens. If i want it and the money is there I'll buy it, it's a bad habit.
ReplyDeleteI know what you mean...I have a few regrets about bargains I decided to pass on. Now, if I find any great items for cheap prices, I always get them!
ReplyDeleteYour outfit is really lovely - cute rocking horse necklace!
I love your outfit!
ReplyDeleteHope you had a fabulous time in HK, I absolutely adore that city. :)
