Another unusual blog post for me but I like to be different and just talk about anything and everything! I thought I would just post about what I bought from New Look at the weekend. I have been desperate for new clothes recently so I couldn't wait to get paid (although my new iPad and rent have made a pretty big dent in the old bank account already!)
I saw this dress and immediately thought of work. In this lovely weather the office aircon does nothing, and the shared fan doesn't do a lot either, so thin dresses are a necessity! I didn't plan on wearing such casual things, but until the office is cooler I won't be wearing thick dresses or trousers!
I wasn't sure about this dress at first, but then I thought what the heck, I've just been paid! Maybe the wrong attitude...I really need more going out clothes and when I tried it on, it did grow on me a little more. If I don't wear it soon I'm sure the sparkles will go down well at Christmas time (thinking ahead!).
This top and the top below were the first things I picked up. I've been looking for a top like this for agesss but in cream and for a decent price. Unfortunately, they didn't have a cream one in my size, so instead I made up for it with my two favourite colours; I couldn't bring myself to leave one behind. I'll continue to keep my eye out for a cream one.
I especially liked these tops because of the fit; they've been sewn in at the sides, so they don't just hang and go baggy. I thought this was good for when I tuck them into things like the skirt below.
I also originally bought this skirt for work but I really want to wear it with the bright coloured tops on a night out. I think I'll hold fire for the work outfits for now and wear it out first. Might not be a good idea if I wear it when I'm out with work colleagues but never mind! Who doesn't love a good mix and match?!
I'm looking forward to the weekend and the week ahead because firstly, Elliot's coming down to Milton Keynes and it's always fun when he is around. Secondly, my brother is staying while he does work experience at the Argos photography studio. Can't say I don't do anything for him! I'm excited for him because I think it will be such a good opportunity for him to use what he has learnt in a different working environment and also to learn new things! We will see if he likes Milton Keynes life as much as I do!
