Topshop sale.
 Underwear from left to right: Yellow bralet £8, yellow brief £3, black brief x2 £2, Aztec Bra £1 and green brief £2.
'Konfetti' my amazing glittery brogues £30, reduced from £60!
 Bikini: £15 and Leopard cami £12.

 Here I thought I'd do a quick post on a few recent Topshop sale purchases. This is one of the things I love about my job, getting the first bargains! A lot of these items, (well most of them) were on my wish list when full price, so obviously when they went down I was willing to pay the new prices! I have not yet worn my glittery brogues but can't wait to! I want the sun to come out as I think they would look great with a cute sun dress. The cami is so cute, it's dipped at the back and is also sheer which will be lovely too if we ever have a summer, and the same with the bikini, ou est le sun? I'll probably have to wait until SEPTEMBER to wear it! (This is when I've booked holiday time, sigh). Have any of you grabbed some bargains at Topshop yet? If so what pieces have you nabbed?x

Frills & flowers.
Peplum Jersey Top: Topshop £16 and Floral Trousers £40
 The pattern is so stunning on these trousers, I'm not usually one for the floral print but I thought this was the nicest one I've seen so had to purchase on uniform. I'm really liking this smart trouser style at the moment from Topshop, they are very similar to my swan ones.
 For the first time I wore them, I teamed them up with my black blouse from Matalan (old), and River Island brogues £12 sale (old). I probably should have kept to black shoes for this look, but hey, you learn from your mistakes. It doesn't look TOO bad, just annoys me a little ha.
For my new Peplum top I paired it with my glittery lilac Leigh Jeans (Topshop £40) and my Vectra studded slippers (also Topshop £28), I learnt, black with black. I love this outfit, it's summery but not too summery, which is exactly what our weather is feeling like. This top is very similar to my other peplum top, but it is made from jersey rather than peplum. I do feel the peplum top sits better and holds its shape in a more flattering manner then the jersey one. The material also makes it feel and look more expensive, which is always nice. The jersey one is roughly £10 cheaper and considering the price, it does the job and looks very flattering. I think these tops are good for hiding a multitude of sins, so if you do have a little bit of a pop belly goin' on, the frill at the waist helps to hide it. They are slim fitting at the top which helps create it's flattering silhouette and if you don't mind your arms out and boobs sucked in then it's perfect for you too!x

Newbie.
Two of my most recent purchases. This gorgeous Peplum shell top from Topshop £24 and the Lemon Jamie Jeans £25 from Topshop too.
 The top is so versatile and really easy to team with anything, coloured denim, blocked denim and even bodycon skirts to make it look like a complete dress. It's ultra feminine and girly and not my usual style, but I think that's what attracted me to it! It's such a bargain for how many different styles you can get out of it! I decided to wear it with my Acid wash Leigh jeans (Topshop of course), and my gladiator sandals from New Look which are atleast 4 years old ha. The Lemon Jamie Jeans are awesome too, I haven't worn the two new items together yet as the weather just isn't right for that look just yet. Instead I decided to emo up the lemon jeans by colour blocking black on black. The slouchy top is from Topshop around £16 and my trusty creepers from eBay that I can't seem to live without at the moment.
I have such an obsession for coloured denim that has lasted well over a year now, hence my ever growing collection. I now have the yellow to add and probably many more. It's not my fault they keep bringing out a colour I don't own! Sheesh. Anyway was thinking of doing how to wear coloured denim post with different ways to style them, what do you think?x
