Hello! (I really don’t know what else to say?) I hope you’re doing well! I certainly am! With the shortlist news, and now the date of my Mizz Magazine release (May 16th!), I am not too bad! So last week I did my first Recent Purchases post, and I have another! I really didn’t think I’d bought that much, but maybe I did! (JS stands for Jumble Sale below!)
Tie Dye Elephant Top – €1.00 (JS): This is actually a boy’s top, but I actually really like it! It looks sort of ‘rock chic’ and a bit edgy, and will look really good with a jumpsuit, and my Dr Martens.
Green Scarf – €0.50 (JS):This was a bargain! Up close it has a print of little pink and orange diamonds on it, and I knew straight away what to wear it with!
Velvet Waistcoat – €0.50 (JS): Another amazing bargain?! I think this will look great with the Elephant top, or possibly a frilly blouse!
White Canvas Trousers – €2.50 (2nd Hand Shop):I wasn’t quite sure how big or small these were at first, but I bought them anyway! I tried them on and they fit perfectly! They look really good with a nice casual top and a floppy summer hat and my new Keds!
Summer Pink Tweed Jacket – €5.00 (JS): This. OMG. I have been wanting some ‘summer tweed’ pieces so much! It is such a big trend for S/S 13, and I finally have my hands on some! It cost me €5.00 and is totally Chanel-esque. #winner
Small French Hat – (2nd Hand Shop):I can’t actually remember the price of this, but it was very cheap! My mum decided to just buy it for me even if I didn’t suit it because it is kinda’ cute! I think it is very Megan McInn-esque (Blogger – who I am soon to interview!) as she is always wearing such cute, vintage hats!
Red Faux Leather Waistcoat – €0.50 (JS):I seriously don’t know why I bought this?! We were looking at a stall which these 3 girls a bit younger than me were serving at. They said it was 50 cents and my mum paid. I am really not sure how to style this! Please tell me in the comments how you think I should!
Bright Colour Boot Socks – £7.50 (ASOS): I bought these ‘for’ my Dr Martens. I needed to buy some boot socks as I was told that if you don’t wear thick socks, they will kill your feet! I decided on these as they are bright coloured, so perfect for spring! They’re are mens, but they are actually the perfect fit, so I’m glad I bought them, but at the same time annoyed as they are now down to £5.00 in the sale! Bummer!
Vintage Box Clutch – €1.00 (JS):I have been seeing Box Clutches a lot recently, so when I saw this I had to buy it! It is very old, and has a little mirror inside which slots in to some little slits. It is really handy for holding your phone, lipsticks, any touch up make-up and even some sunglasses, so it is really practical and adds a cute touch to your outfit!
Floral and Lace Detail Dress – €3.00 (JS):This dress was originally €5.00 but I got it for 3! I was drawn to it because of the lace detailing which I think looks really pretty. I am hopefully going to take it up to knee length as I don’t really like it how it is now, but overall I am really happy with this purchase!
Camo Jacket – €3.00 (JS):I haven’t ever had a camo jacket! I am really happy with this one though, as it’s a slightly different fit to normal jackets, and I love the zip details! It’s a little big on the arms but I will only grow! I am going to try and get some badges and DIY it up! What do you think?
Mint Green Lace Blazer/Cardigan – €0.50 (JS):This is what my brother likes to call the ‘Tic Tac’ jacket. It is lovely! I haven’t got anything else in mint green (except a pair of shorts which are WAY to short now!), and this is perfect! It has 3/4 length sleeves which is great for just putting on top of something. I love the collar as well, as I think it really pulls together the jacket. This is one of my favourite purchases!
Watch out for some OOTDs coming your way soon! I may have bought a few other things yesterday too so there may also be another Recent Purchases post!… Oops! I hope you have a fab rest of your week! The sunshine’s out! Enjoy!
