A casual outfit to see some friends at the pub. I always feel more dressed up when I'm in a dress or a skirt so this was definitely a dressed down day when I chose to wear these jeans. I wore my hoody which was my favourite companion during flights to NY and HK last year. I wish I was going on holiday this year. It doesn't help matters when my dad has jetted off to HK for a few weeks to see my grandparents and aunts!
Hoody (Once Upon a Time for Topshop) Bow (Accessorize) Bangle (HK)The only things in my dad's luggage seemed to be chocolates from Hotel Chocolat and various biscuits that are not avaliable in Hong Kong, which were requests from my family in HK. I'm not sure if this is allowed anymore but once my dad even bubble wrapped a bunch of apples which was super random. We all joke that he should become a proffessional courier because the apples arrived unbruised and more recently, the chocolates remained intact!
I've asked him to bring me back some Japanese magazines but I am beginning to wonder if he will be a little lost in the bookstore among all the girly fashion magazines!
Tee (The Mountain @ Asos) Cardi (UO) Jeans (Topshop) Shoes (Topshop)
Bag (Vivienne Westwood)I only have one more week of my shopping ban left. April was a long month and I did break it , once when I got that lion tee (still, totally worth it) It's only been a month but it's definitely been a great experiment and one that has definitely helped me get some perspective on shopping. It has made me realise how many of the things I bought were just frivolous buys!
Right I'm off to watch some brainless TV...ANTM? Gossip Girl?

Cute hoodie! Love the Viv Westwood bag too. If I sent my dad to buy a fashion magazine he would be so completely lost. I love that he bubble wrapped some apples! Haha! :) x
You're such an HK Vivienne whore you are, honestly... (ps: nice bag!)
Wowee - I watched Susan Boyle on BGT (got it on youku.com); my goodness moi I didn't know quite what to expect, and then when she opened her mouth I was like, wah! One of my students was sitting with me giggling away at her attire, but even he shut up when she was singing, haha!
Love your bag and that hoody is so fantastic!!! And lol, my dad always packs the most random things when going to visit the family in Asia. He seems to only have the one change of clothes, and the rest of the suitcase is all biscuits, chocolates, perfumes, vitamin tablets and other randomness.

you looks fantastic! (not that you don't ever look it :D )
SOS-er fi xx

OMGOSH. BAG. PLEASE!
Cute hoody! I love how long it is. I'm glad your shopping ban has gone well.
Hi there-well done on getting through the shopping ban, I believe its all about evaluating what you truly need and love for your wardrobe, you've done really well! Love the VW bag, so gorgeous!
I so love your hoodie in that very first pic. Have a great weekend. You've got some great pieces and I'm proud that you stayed that long on track with staying away from shopping..but some days are just better than others..and so are good deals too.
Shopping ban? :-O I have been on the exact opposite lately - a shopping craze haha. I like your long hoodie - I was always so tempted by the AA hoodie dress but its just too expensive! Can we swap links? I'm adding you to my blogroll whatever the case :) xoxo
I love how you say, brainless tv. ahaha I want your VW bag. It looks amazing!
foreign chocolates ♥♥♥

That hoodie looks damned comfy...I love the design on the front. love the bag, too :) WOOT for Gossip Girl!! :D

Love the hoodie! Looks really cosy - I have many hoodies but none are as cute as that.
can't even imagine my Dad trying to buy a fashion magazine! Hope your dad picks something good! ;)
Very cute outfits for the pub :) Lol it's so funny what overseas relatives request, I had to post over some Mars Delight to my cousins in Sydney they don't get any nice chocolate over there!
I've always loved hoodies and yours is so cute!

the blue jacket in the first pic is wonderful!
