I'mma help you out

Out of the goodness of my heart I'll help you out. If you have £15 kicking around in your purse that's burning a hole that needs filling with fashion, you're in the right place. 

The Mela dress from New Look is on sale for a mere £15 - and it's lush. And it has many prints available. See...

This week I managed to get my hands on £52 worth of New Look vouchers for £40 - I can see where the majority of that cash is going. The prints on these dresses are adorable, and they're perfect for summer right through to adding in some jeans or (sorry fashion folks) leggings as the autumn hits. 

If I add in the sandals below I'm sorted - badabing! 

The top pair are £8 - that's right - just EIGHT WHOLE ENGLISH POUNDS - the printed pair are a mere £11.24 - so what are you waiting for? New Look! Now! 

Dowdy Friday

Sometimes I think there's something a little bit sexy about dressing a little bit like a grandmother. 

This skirt was sexy once, but now it's too big. So it looks dowdy. But I feel good in it. 

This jumper is a bit shapeless, and from a distance looks super dowdy. But it's a bit see through - so I feel a little cheeky in it.

See.

Throwing on a necklace that looks like a brightly coloured solar system makes any outfit a little less dowdy too. Furreals. 

Simple

Today I wanted a simple look. A plain black dress (George at Asda, £10) and my purple Next tights and blue New Look wedges. 

Your turn!

I get asked a lot how I find clothes at such good prices, and how I always have so many things to wear.


So here's a little gift from me to you.


These are available, right now, online, all for less than £10.

George at Asda, £9.00 

George at Asda, £7.00

George at Asda, £7.00

George at Asda, £6.00

George at Asda, £6.00

Ok, so they are all from Asda. You might have noticed I get lots of my things from there. You want to know why? Because they have great prices, they use nice fabrics for the cost and they make things well. Those things wash, they are bright colours, and they make me happy.

So you should go and buy their nice clothes, for bargain prices, and then rock the crap out of them all over the place.

You can also get these sale items in store, with even more variety. If you wait another week, towards the end of the sale, they'll drop the prices even more. You might have less choices but they will be even lower prices, and you can honest to goodness get some real treasures. 

Go! 

Another Monday came!

Another Monday arrived and, after a weekend of some serious party, I was tooooooo tired for thinking about what to wear. Or heels. 


I know.


So this is what I rocked. 

That's right, I banged on FLAT SHOES and a proper old lady cardi. Oh yes I did. 

The cardi is one my husband bought for me, he got it in Asda (we both love their clothes!) and I don't know what he paid, he says probably £5. It was definitely in the sale so won't have been much.

It isn't often I can't remember where I got something - but I do not remember where I got these shoes. I remember getting them shortly after our wedding - so this time two years ago - but I don't recall where from, or what I paid. I'm not crazy about flat shoes so they don't really stand out in my mind, I probably went into town in something totally unsuitable and wanted to go on the beach so grabbed these from some bargain bucket somewhere. They're comfy, ish, and I do love the beading. I also REALLY need to paint my nails.

If you've read any of my other posts you'll know this dress already - Peacocks, strawberry print.

The belt is also Peacocks and people always comment on it - it was in the sale, it was £4. I love it, but it is started to droop! 

I was comfortable, I felt good, and the outfit was very inexpensive! Even when I want to be a bit of a slob, and just pull on sandals and a cardigan, I think it can still look ok! 

Thursday time

This skirt is one of a very limited number of things I have paid full price for recently - though that full price was just £12.
I got it in Asda and bought it because it is genuinely the most comfortable thing I have EVER worn. It isn't my smartest skirt but by heck it's nice to wear!

The top is the colourful sister of the black polo neck I wore earlier in the week - from eBay.

The shoes I found in TKMaxx - they were reduced to £17 in their clearance stock and are glorious. Ridiculously comfortable and a lovely shade of deep bottle green. I adore deck shoes and love that these, being green, are just a little unusual.

The headscarf was 50p in Asda!

Flowery June

For a day that had some actual sunshine I thought I would dress in flowers. I do love flowers.

The t-shirt came from Asda (of course) and I was very pleased to get it for just £2 in the sale - it has a wee pocket on my left boob that I could do without, but it's a lovely soft cotton, and I like the colours of the flowers because I can pretty much pair it with anything and it'll go somehow. 

The skirt was from a charity shop - one in Dorchester for a local hospice - and it was £6. Today was the first time I wore it because it was too small when I first bought it (I never try things on in charity shops because I figure if it doesn't fit I can donate it back and I just made a donation) I absolutely love the detail around the hem. 

The shoes are these previous stars - £16 from Matalan (available in other colours and I do keep thinking about going back for the light blue ones, but I already have blue wedges!) and I adore the colour (which matches the skinny belt - also from Matalan, two for £3) 

I loved my outfit today - and all in it cost me £25.50

I was also complimented by a gay man, and that, my friends, means it's a success. (I'm ignoring the comment I got on Instagram from a foot fetish oddbod - we'll just gloss over that!)
