Topshop Sale April 2013: What Milly Bought!

Why hello there!

The topshop sale launched last week

and I picked up quite a few bits that I thought I would share with you!

 

Topshop Embroidered Floral Sweat £32

The first thing I bought (full price) is this gorgeous sweatshirt.

It's super comfy and reminds me of quite a few wildfox couture jumpers!

Comic Pop Art Sweat £18 (reduced from £30)
I think this print is so fun, great for a lazy weekend.
I just wish one of them said bazzinga!

Spray effect slip £10 (reduced from £18)
I thought this would be good for summer,
may be over a white t-shirt with a tan belt and sandals?

 Moto Stud Western Denim Shirt £15 (reduced from £38)
At over 50% off I thought this shirt was a bargain.
I wear my blue denim shirt quite often so this should be a good addition to my wardrobe

 Burgundy Speckle roll sleeve mini dress £12 (reduced from £26)
Again I thought this would be a great summer staple
and could be worn in many different ways

 Red and Navy sweater dress £15 (reduced from £30)
I've already worn this and it's great!
I wouldn't quite call it a sweater dress though,
it's not particularly thick.
I do love the pockets though, they were a great addition.

Polkadot Bodycon Dress in Red & Green both £15 (reduced from £29)
I love these dresses
The print is great, cant wait to style them all retro!
They do fit small though I had to size up.

 Oxblood full skater skirt £20 (reduced from £38)
I've been looking for a leather look skirt for ages and this fits the bill!
It's not the most flattering thing in the world, as it is pretty full
but I like it anyway.

Tall flecked midi dress purple £18 (reduced from £29)
Obviously I am not tall,
but if I like the look of something I ignore the size, or whether it's tall, petite, or for men!
and just see if something looks right on me,
and this does!

 Tall wings burn out sweat £15 (reduced from £28)
Again it's tall but it doesn't look any different tbh.
Love the wing/feather print, and it's nice and lightweight too.

 Maveriq Heavy Studded Slippers Grey £18 (reduced from £32)
I loved the vectra pumps I've had for a good while,
and I'm just as impressed with the maveriq style.
I own them in black with silver, khaki with rose gold
and now this taupe colour with rose gold.
They do not look grey as they are names, or as pink as in the pic though!

Shapewear skirt £7 (reduced from £14)
I'm not hugely into shapewear,
however I bought this skirt to try because of the price
and first impressions are it's brilliant!
It's not so tight that I cant breathe,
and it gives a nice silhouette.
It's also pretty high waisted which I prefer

Shapewear Shorts £5 (reduced from £12)
These are pretty much the same as the skirt.
I often wear cycling shorts under summer dresses
so these should be pretty useful!

Well that's everythong!
Did you splurge in the topshop sale?

New Arrival: Summer Haul!

I've bought quite a lot of lovely things recently,

(I got paid from my lovely new job so I'm feeling a lot less poor)

so I thought I'd do a quick post to show you everything!!

Jubilee Print Dress £28 River Island

I bought this dress a couple of weeks ago and It's just gorgeous

I've worn it 3 times, and can't wait to wear it again!

Unfortunately it's now sold out online but it's worth checking your local store,

and they've got some other cute British themed dresses.

Border Print Smock Dress £39 Topshop

This dress is so pretty

I love the floral print and it's 70's style

It comes up pretty big so size down,

and I'll deffo be cinching my waist in with a belt,

or it could look a little tenty!

Trilby Hat Ochre Sandals £44.99 Clarks

Clarks are currently doing 20% off everything

(Codes and info here)

So being a clarks fan (hello comfort!)

I popped down to my local shop.

I was not looking for anything like these but I spied them on display

and just had to try them on, and once they were on my feet

well I just had to have them.

I do not do heels at all,

but I can actually walk in these, and they're so so yellow!

Beige Multi Coloured Stud Spike Sandals £35 River Island

The sandals are ahmahzing!

I saw them on London Beauty Queens blog (here)

and ordered them straight away.

I do not like my feet very much,

but if I'm going to have to get them out

it might as well be in these babies.

Brown Leopard Print T-shirt Midi Dress £25 River Island

While I was ordering my sandals,

I came across this t-shirt dress

I think it's good value for £25,

it's comfy and looks fab on.

Clinique Chubby Sticks £16 (via Boots)

I bought a couple of chubby sticks when they very first launched

and now they've bought out new colours I had to go back for more

So I now have:

Chunky Cherry

Mega Melon

Woppin Watermelon

Pudgy Peony

& Oversized Orange

I just can't get enough of them!

I've now got my eye on Voluptuous Violet & Two Ton Tomato

What have been your favourite buys recently?

What Milly Wore: Lady in Red

Hi folks!

I'm currently super busy,

but I realise I need to make more of an effort with my outfit posts!

I wear nice clothes all the time but always forget to document them.

Here is what I wore out to dinner on mothers day:

 

Black Leather 'Owain' Biker Jacket: Allsaints £200 reduced from £400 last year

I LOVE this jacket, it is probably my favourite item that I own.

I'm glad I splashed out on it when I had the money.

Brass Skull Necklace: Galibardy

I've mentioned Galibardy a few times before on my blog

I like pretty much all of their designs.

They are great quality and always unique,

this necklace was a gift from my bestie at christmas :)

Red & Green Patent Apple Shaped Bag: Topshop

I've had this for ages and it's just so gosh darn cute!

Red Lace Tulle Dress: Primark

This dress was pretty cheap for what it is.

I like that it's quite girley without being all pink and pastels, you know?

It's quite a statement so I havn't worn it much

but it's great for occasions.

Leggings: primark (as always)

yep still my favourite leggings.

Red Leather 'Fawcett' Boots: Office Sale £20  reduced from £70 ish a good few years ago

I have 5 pairs of these boots in all different colours!

(Black, Mushroom, Grey, Burgundy, Red)

I started with the mushroom pair and wore them pretty much every day

(before I started my blog) and then gradually collected the other colours

as they are so comfy and versatile.

They are good quality real leather and I just haven't got round to

wearing in this red pair yet, they take a few weeks to become perfect!

That's about it guys and gals,

let me know what you think!
