I really haven't been up to a great deal. I didn't have much time off work at Christmas so I've spent my recent days off visiting relatives, leaving less time to myself to buy awesome things- or so you'd think.
I've actually managed to sneak in some bargains, due mainly to the wonder of online shopping.
First I thought i'd share, seriously, the best online shopping experience I've had in a long time courtesy of Love clothing.
Despite noticing that they ship with Yodel, which due to dealing with them everyday in my own job I can tell you are utter shite, I got gorgeous clothes for a good price, delivered quickly and wrapped beautifully (with a cheeky 20% code for next time!).
I wanted a dress for my graduation ceremony, which despite me 'graduating' in June, isn't until February.
I settled on this red number:
Not sure whether it'll look good under my grad robes or not but who cares, I LOVE it! (no pun intended).
For spending over £60, you got £15 off so I was tempted by another offer they had on for two items for £30 to make up the numbers.
I got this leopard print wrap dress:
And this pleated maxi skirt:
A good haul for £60 I say!
I was also really impressed by the fact they used blogger photos for some of their items. Made a welcome change to the usual purely product-focused shots.

Jennifer from The Native Fox was featured with the Maroon Chiffon Cross Bust Asymmetrical Maxi |
It seems that the Brown Leopard Print Long Sleeve Wrap Dress has sold out and I can't find the blogger pic (sorry!) however the gorgeous Charlene of Strutt was featured with the similar Snake Print dress |
Here's another little collection of recent buys:
At the top is an awesome 80s leather jacket I bought from COW in Manchester. I tried this jacket on shortly after moving here when I was penniless, so resigned it back to the rail. Having gone back after getting a job I wasn't surprised that it was gone. But fate was shining on me and upon popping in for a browse in the January sales, there it was- half price at £18! Result.
Then we have a pretty vintage lace collar I bought from eBay for around £5. Not sure if it's very me or if I'll wear it but we'll see.
Finally we have a Pritchard Vs. Dainton T shirt. Another eBay buy at £1.99.
Now, this will only mean anything to you if, like me, you are a massive Dirty Sanchez fan- which isn't particularly likely but i thought I'd share it regardless. I think I'm actually in love with Matt Pritchard and have been looking for one of these T shirts everywhere!
Here's a little video of the boys if you aren't familiar:
Below is my Zara plaited handle shopper dupe bag, eBayed from Hong Kong for £14.
The real thing:
I know at circa £80 the Zara version doesn't break the bank but I'm not feeling so flush at the moment and the look-a-like bag is really good! Okay, it's not leather and it took an age to arrive (well, around 2 weeks) but for the price you can't complain.
Hopefully you might get some outfit posts out of me with all this lot.
Stay tuned!
