Obsession of the Day

Hi everyone,
Again I am so sorry for not being around on here... I have been struggling for a fair few days with a late winter/early spring horrible cold. I have generally been feeling sorry for myself and not even up to looking at clothes, shock horror. However, tonight I am soldiering on to let you know about my latest loves. Those are Forever 21 Blazers. If I was to narrow this down slightly I would say that I love the spring/summer appropriate colours they have got and I would like one of each please! Here are my favourites!

                    

Each of these beautiful blazers are only £18.75. Surely that means I can have all of them? You can buy them all, in all their various colours here. I really do recommend Forever 21 for stylish but affordable jackets!

What are you all lusting after this week?

Obsession Of The Day

Hello again,

At the moment in England it seems decidedly wintery outside with snow and ice all around and temperatures well below freezing however I am feeling positive and am looking forward to the warmer spring months. I am fed up of buying cosy jumpers and thick tights and am thinking ahead to my holiday wardrobe.

This offering is from Boohoo.com, a regular haunt of mine for gorgeous dresses which won't break the bank. I have to confess a deep love for the polka-dot. I think that it is a quirky yet timeless print which is always in fashion in some way without ever looking try-hard. I love everything about this dress; the beige colour (although you can also buy it in navy), the salmon pink polka dots, the cute capped sleeves and the cream belt which cinches it in. This would be great in spring with a cardigan thrown over and some sheer tights and chelsea boots to harden the look slightly but would equally look great for a summer night with tan wedges, bare legs and tousled wavy hair. I am 100% sold. Especially for such a bargain price of £20!

Obsession of the Day

Hello again,

I didn't mention in the previous post that I am in fact a university student studying English Literature. Whilst I very much enjoy the university experience it unfortunately has resulted in a lack of funds for shopping. I therefore find much of my time spent browsing online stores, yearning for that one item of clothing or beauty product that will 'make' my wardrobe complete. At least for a day or two. I have decided to document these sought after items in a regular post I will call 'Obsession of the Day'. Of course I may not post these absolutely everyday but I would say that based on my dedicated commitment to trawling the internet I would expect to see these on a regular basis! With that being said...

These New Look trousers are amazing! I am in love with the tailored look. I also love a good neutral piece as I feel they are so much more versatile to wear - this dove grey is particularly lovely as it will go beautifully with the pastel colours which are sure to make an appearance in spring/summer. I am also a complete convert to high waisted anything. I do not own anything low rise any more as high waisted is so much more flattering on my (and most women with curves) figure. I would personally wear these beauties with a sheer white shirt and heels for a classy meal and drinks look or with a plain white t-shirt and loafers for a day shopping or going to uni. I also think they would look perfect (as do most things in my opinion) paired with a leather jacket to combat the chilly weather. I am absolutely in love. For those of you who are not a student these would be so perfect for work with a shirt, blazer and heels or pumps. I literally cannot fault them. What makes them even better is their amazing price tag of £14.99. New Look really have astounded me recently with some great clothes for such reasonable prices. I will definitely be flexing my student loan to get these as they seem like they will be a piece which I could get so much wear out of for so many different occassions!

If like me you are convinced, you can buy them here
