Pre-pay day clothes shopping is asking for trouble

DC and I popped to the shops after visiting my grandparents on Saturday, for him to find something to wear for our night out. It was 4 days before payday (which has still not come around, boo) and I knew already that I had my eye on something in the Topshop sale so I was hoping it'd be there.

I tried on this dress that I've had my eye on for AGES:

 

And I did love it but I realised I probably wouldn't get much wear out of it (and the fact I had no £) plus as per many complaints on Topshop.com my elephant had disappeared off the front of the dress too.

 

This was the jacket I have been trying to track down but as you can see the size 10 was way too big and a size 8 is nowhere in sight, it's now also disappeared from the sale section of Topshop.com. I think you can see the look I was trying to go for though...

 

 

Then my final option was this Peter Pan floral print top with lace detailing from Miss Selfridge:

 

This was really flattering and took me about 4.5 second to purchase whoops :)

Pick of the week #9

 

1. Pastel cream leather barrel bag - £45 Zatchels
I'm so excited to receive my Zatchels barrel bag! I didn't think I was ever going to get my hands on it, but was pleased when my order finally went through and it should arrive on my office desk in the next couple of weeks!

2. Pirate chain necklace - £14.00 Miss Selfridge
I have a lot of jewellery but not a lot of costume jewellery, so this necklace would be perfect and versatile enough to go with everything.

3. Lip bullet in Rockability - £8.00 Topshop
I'm looking for a stand out lip colour for our friends' wedding on Saturday, and this one looks perfect so I'm off to Topshop tomorrow to try it out.

4. Orla Kiely tortoise shell glasses - £189.00 Boots
I have been in major need of some new glasses for so long now - my current ones are about 7 years old and I can no longer see properly through them! I'm saving up for a super cool pair of Orla Kiely's, available at Boots.

5. Mini dot iPhone case - £24.99 Cath Kidston
I invest to much money in clothes, shoes, bags, purses and makeup that I realised the other day how much I have been abandoning my iPhone - it looks so scruffy these days that I definitely need to throw away my boring plain (and cracking) white case and buy something a bit more stylish.
