OOTD - Buttoned Up

 

T-shirt - Dorothy Perkins

Skirt - River Island

Belt - Vintage

I've had a complete change of attitude towards shopping this last week. After having to fork out £500 on a new laptop my shopping addicted brain has come to the realisation that I spend a ridiculous amount on money on clothes I never wear. 

This outfit is made up from items of clothing I found lurking at the bottom of my wardrobe. The skirt so easy to wear- I've never worn it before (oops) - but I think it looks so cute dressed down with this plain black tee and some grey, lace up canvas shoes.

How do you stop yourself from spending money on items you don't really need?

Despite doing a blogpost (here) on controlling the spending habit - being at home has proved to be very difficult money wise!

OOTD - Autumnal print

Jumper - H&M 

Skirt - Miss Selfridge

You've probably noticed my complete obsession with OOTD's at the moment! I've gone through my wardrobe and rediscovered so many clothes that I've forgotten about - Although I can't lie... I have ordered a few essential items i.e. new boots and a couple of jumpers. But other than that I have found I actually have everything I need in my wardrobe. I came across this skirt in the depths of one of my drawers, I love it - it's such a gorgeous print and it's great for Autumn/Winter paired with some black tights and boots.

I also just have to mention that I curled my hair - such a rare thing to see! I got a pair of new GHD's for my birthday so I tested them out this morning. The last GHD's I had were the wide plated ones which I couldn't curl with as easily. 

When was the last time you had a proper look through all of the clothes you own?

When it's cold outside

The weather cheered up a little bit today which was typical as I had planned a day of revision. It was sunny enough to put on some shades but definitely not warm enough to go out in Summer clothing!

                            

Here's what I decided to wear, I must admit I 'threw it on' this morning, so it is a bit mismatched but I kind of like that look at the moment! 

                          

                                     

Shirt  - Asda (pj top from ages ago). I tied it at the bottom to make it look more fitted.

Vest top - New Look

Jeggings - Vintage

Clutch - Primark

Sunglasses - ASOS

Lipstick - Revlon Colourburst Lipstick in 'Coral'

A very simple outfit but made a bit more interesting with a bright red/orangey lip. And I love new look vest tops because you can play around with them as a base for an outfit!

What are your staple items of clothing at the moment?

Casual work day

I have just had one lecture at university today so I threw on a very casual and comfortable outfit. I thought the patterned top is pretty and has a spring feel to it without being too over the top.

Top - New look

Trousers - Primark

Boots - Ebay

Watch - Sekonda Diamond from H Samuel

Nail Varnish - No 17 Lasting Fix Nail Polish in 'Sweet Kisses'

Lipstick - Revlon Colorburst Lipstick in Coral with Revlon Super Lustrous Lipgloss in Coral Reef on top
