Friday was payday, hooray! This also coincided with an email I got from Topshop telling me about a flash sale they were having (I’m not really sure what a flash sale is, but it had the word sale in it and that was all I needed to hear to pique my interest) so I hot-footed it down to Topshop on Oxford Street after work on Friday to have a browse.
The sale was OK; I grabbed about six or seven items to try on and although there were plenty of “nice” things I was quite restrained and managed to convince myself that I really have enough “nice” things in my wardrobe already and I don’t need any more, so if I was going to buy anything I might as well make it something a bit interesting. In the end I bought just one thing which was a pair of fluffy shorts reduced from £50 to £25. They don’t really look like shorts at all and reminded me of a ballet tutu, or perhaps an ostrich’s fluffy bum! OK so that description perhaps doesn’t make them sound so appealing but really I just liked them because they were good fun.

Do you think I described them well?? He he. I wore them today with a fitted blazer and light pink tights which were my nod to the ballet trend. |

I also popped into Miss Selfridge today where they were also having a mid-season sale and I picked up some accessories. I really don’t need any more accessories but they are quite inexpensive in the sale and again they’re good fun so I just bought a couple. I really need to devise a new storage system for all my accessories though as I have so many that I never get round to wearing as I’ve got them squirreled away all over my room and I never think to dig them out.

A giant pompom to wear on my head! (Around £3.50)

It reminded me of Scandinavian knits, of which I’m a big fan. It’s also just a fun way to lighten up any outfit. The band is quite easy to cover with my hair too. (Oh yes and I do wear braces in case you noticed that my teeth look a bit funny above! I actually love them though as they have straightened my teeth soooo much since I got them fitted just over a year ago).
