Hey!
Guess what.... I've been shopping again. No surprises there! I found some great little gems in a few charity shops and high street stores over the course of this week, so let's delve right into them...
I'm absolutely loving nineties grunge style accessories for those who dress slightly more teenage and laid back, I found this tangled at the back of a rack of hideous clumpy gems and beads, and immediately realised it's potential. I love the aztec patterns and the almost symbolic, charm-like feel of this and as you will see I am especially pleased with the fact that I can wear it with my next item, like a dual set,
Shop: Barnados
Price: 99p
Here we can see my second jewellery item, which I also love for providing a nostalgic nineties skater kid vibe! It didn't come with the pacman charm, my sister made that at her school and I grabbed it as soon as she deemed it 'a piece of junk', knowing it would be useful somehow... and I was right!
Shop: Barnardos
Price: 99p
I picked up these super cheap, plain flatform plimsolls on a whim, and recently realised they are even more versatile than I had previously imagined... I've worn them with dresses, jeans, leggings - basically everything! (ignore my tiny feet please, I'm very petite!)
Shop: Primark
Price: £6
This is a super cute, jean fabric skater skirt I picked up the other day. It's nothing remarkable but extremely versatile, and so far I've worn it with a t-shirt and converse, and also heels and a lacy top.
Shop: Arthritis Research Newcastle
Price: £1 (everything from here ^ is this cheap!!)
Original Brand: Divided at H&M
This sweater was spotted by my friend Chelsea and was originally to be bought for her friend as a birthday present.... but I loved it so much I picked it up as well! It looks amazing paired with grey acid wash skinnies, a few layered chokers and of course my ever trusty flatform trainers.
Shop: DIVIDED at H&M
Price: £5.99
I've started stocking up on summer essentials early (even though the weather shows no signs of getting any better, typical England!) So of course every girl needs a classic light wash denim jacket, and as soon as I saw this I knew it had to be purchased there and then! I'm planning on pairing it with a floral dress and gladiator sandals.
Shop: Barnados
Price: £5.99
Original Brand: Warehouse
The picture quality on anything velvet is always terrible with flash, but I apologise since my lighting was even worse without it. Still, I hope you can see this is a plain, floaty velvet skater skirt and I've worn it nearly all week with everything! It's amazing for bringing an element of understated grunge to any outfit or even a splash of glam.
Shop: Primark
Price: £5
This floral dress is going to be my absolute go-to dress once the sun turns up again - I'm obsessed! And for the price, well... that's just an added bonus!
Shop: Arthritis Research Newcastle
Price: £1
Original Brand: 'Glamorous'
Yet another little gem that looks horrendous with a flash (sorry,) this velvet flocked skater dress has become my January staple dress, being super easy to dress up or down and extremely comfortable to wear!
