Don't underestimate the things that I will do


Outfit:

Floral dress with matching belt: Primark
Bow nude wooden sandals: Next
Vintage straw bag: eBay
Gold coloured bangles: Topshop and Primark
Red plastic watch: Toywatch

Ouch my legs look a bit red in these pictures! I only thought I got sunburnt on my back!

This straw bag is one of the best things I brought on eBay. I only paid £1.04 for it, think it came to about £3 with postage. It went with absolutely everything and is the perfect holiday bag. Just the right size to lug all my junk around! Unfortunately my poor shoes had broken before I had even got on the plane. I had to carry them in my hand luggage as they were too heavy for my suitcase. On the way to the airport I noticed the bow was flapping about! I tried to super glue it once I found the nearest supermarket next to our hotel but it didn't work. I took them back when I got home and exchanged them for another pair. Hopefully these ones won't break, they are a perfect holiday shoe!

I went shopping over the weekend and hit up H&M. They really have stepped it up a gear this season and I could have brought the whole shop. I brought a beautiful orange midi skirt for work. It is made of such lovely material and was only £24.99. Got an outfit planned for that later on during the week :)

Lots of people commented on my orange dress in the previous post. It was a River Island special and I blogged about it here. :)

Did anyone do anything exciting over the weekend?

  1. I love this whole outfit, especially the pattern on the dress. It's a shame about the shoes, they're very pretty; hopefully those ones will hold out. Really nice outfit, and you look very summery in it! xxx
