Sale Away

I'm not much of a sales person truth be told, but I had saved a few pennies up and very gratefully got some for Christmas and so I decided to suck it up and dive into the hectic jumble that is January sales.

I got some stuff in store and some online, but I'll link them all the best can. I thought I'd share with you what I picked up so you could get your hands on some of these items for cheaper if you like them too. There's a mixture of fashion and beauty items that I just couldn't let go a miss. Who doesn't love a good bargain ey? 

Hope you all had a wonderful Christmas and hope you enjoy! 

Emma Hardy Cleansing Balm
Original Price- £38
Sale Price- £32.30



Topshop Scarf

£7 in the sale.
Can't find the link on the website but in may still be in stores.



Whistles Tee

I got this t-shirt in the sale on ASOS a couple of weeks ago, but unfortunately it' s no longer in the sale. Butttt, it is still available to buy at full price, if you should so please.



ASOS Skirt

£38 to £13, yes please!



Weekday Jacket

Original Price- £85
Sale Price - £51




Still a bit of a splurge but I have wanted this for ages so I just went for it and I'm so glad I did. I've worn it pretty much everyday since I got it.

Topshop Jackpot Heels

Original price- £58
Sale Price - £40

I was super stoked to get these in the sale. I had spotted them ages ago now and loooved them, but they had sold out before I could even get my hands on a pair, but randomly browsing the website I found them in the sale. Think I actually did a little fist pump. Also, I used a gift card I had to buy them, so I actually only ended up paying £9 for them. Bargain. (also, didn't even know you could use a gift card online, but it turns out you can)



River Island Top

Original Price: £28
Sale Price: £15



Okay, so these next few items weren't in the sale but I thought I'd throw them in there anyway as they're still available to buy in store and in my opinion are such good value for money.They have quickly become some of the favourite pieces in my wardrobe.

All About ASOS

So today I thought I'd share with you my recent ASOS findings. It's exam season which of course means lots of procrastination has taken place via internet shopping, but hey, at least I found some stuff that I really love... right?

I love reading posts like this, one: because I'm rather nosy and two: because I actually find it's a great way of eliminating trawling through the whole site to find something you like- even though that's what I've done here, haha. If I know another blogger has a similar sense of style to me, I find these types of posts really useful and often find pieces I love that I might not necessarily have seen myself.

So yeah, here's my latest ASOS wishlist; hope you enjoy!

Interior Inspiration

Recently I just can't get enough of homeware, it's becoming a bit of a problem...well not for me but for my bank account. Anyone else find themselves spending much too long on Pinterest or Instagram drooling over interior? Just me?... okay moving on.

I thought I'd share with you some of my inspiration today and also some lovely pieces I've found and will most probably be purchasing soon (I can't help it, I'm a sucker when it comes to homeware). Most of it is actually from H&M. Browsing their website recently, I've fallen in love with so many things, their stuff is on point; right up my street. I'd definitely recommend checking it out if you're in the market for some new home stuff. Ooh and Zara home is just lovely too. Hope you enjoy!



2.Copper Metal Storage Basket- H&M: £12.99
3. Marble Print Cushion Cover- H&M: £7.99
4.Elephant Rug- Urban Outfitters: £15

Pinterest inspiration (a.k.a major style crushing)



(Swoon)

Also, I've been loving Kate's blog from Gh0stparties and often find myself browsing it for inspiration. Her decor is to die for, major house envy going there; it's beautiful. Check her blog out if you fancy some great ideas, tips and tricks!

Will any of these products make your wish list?

AC for AG

With her book it becoming a top ten bestseller last year, model and journalist turned author Alexa Chung continues to take the fashion world by storm. Better yet; she has it in the palm of her hand and has us all eagerly wanting to take whatever she has to offer out of it (myself included). This fashion muse has launched a new 20 piece clothing range in collaboration with AG, designed and modelled by the icon herself. Before I even saw the collection I may or may not have (I did) had the thought I want it all, because let’s face it, the girl knows how to dress. It was bound to be love at first browse.

Anyway, on to the clothes. A promotional video for the collection courtesy of mytheresa.com, where Alexa herself takes on the Stevie Nicks classic pretty much sums it up: ‘bright eyes, blue denim’ (is there anything this girl can’t do?) The collection has a mix of blue denim pieces to take your pick from and an array of relaxed plain tees and jumpers that will help you ultimately perfect that effortless chic style that Alexa nails.

My personal favourite of the collection is the New Wave Sweatshirt, available in grey and white. Styled by Alexa, the jumper looks relaxed and effortlessly cool. If I had the money ( this jumper will set you back a steep £145) I’d be rocking up to lectures in it looking like a casual goddess- a girl can dream right?

The other pieces in the collection range from dungarees to denim dresses, button down miniskirts to skinny jeans; a.k.a something new to lust after. The pieces are ‘inspired by a late sixties, early seventies aesthetic’ Alexa told Women’s Wear Daily but I believe it also manages to have a slightly nostalgic 90s vibe with the button down denim. AC for AG might not be for everyone, but if you have an effortless, laidback but still cool style (and a large budget) maybe this is the one for you. Would you revamp your wardrobe with Alexa’s dream denim collection? Could this be the start of something new for Alexa? (no High-School Musical pun intended).
