My Latest Purchase;


So I went shopping on the weekend, supposed to be Christmas shopping but that didn’t really happen :S

I bought;
The brown fringe sandals were only $10! And the other ones (which I bought with black buckes / straps were only $14.95) from Rubi shoes, who have a huge sandal sale on right now!

This skirt is not something I would usually get, as Im not a huge lace fan, however the neutral colours and 'dipped' effect caught my eye. I also bought these leggings, which are quite thick and you could easily wear them as pants, with black and silver sequin panels running down each side. Both of these were $9.95

I bought this batwing, button up cardigan, in 2 shades of grey (2 for $30). These are simple, easy to chuck over just a singlet and denim shorts, can go with everything and easily change plain tops. Cardigans like this are great for when you're sick of tee's you've worn and you feel as if you wear the same thing everyday.

 I got this black sleeveless cardigan - not something I would normally pick up but it was only $5! So why not, always buy staple items like this when you see them, it adds to your wardrobe because you can wear it in so many ways, and its not doing any damage to your wallet! 



I also bought 2 dresses online from Manikinn.com - remember me posting about their sale the other day? This hoodie dress is light fabric, not too long, and wearable with skinny jeans or over tights and wedges. Its casual and just a little bit different.

The other dress I got from Manikinn.com was this 'Plastic' look dress (also in grey!) cap sleeves, cowl neck can be belted and changed in so many ways.

I bought this Grecian jumpsuit from ASOS.com as well, so nice! I love jumpsuits but its hard to find ones that suit my figure. Make sure when you buy a jumpsuit - you buy it in the same style that you normally would. i.e. choose an empire line, or one that belts / ties in at the waist or at your hips, depending on what suits you. This was only $40.

I got this plain maxi dress as well in khaki, which pretty much is a blank canvas for accessories.


I also got this leotard, with mesh panels on the side, perfect to wear with so many things, a high waisted skirt, harem pants and more for $15.

I love ankle boots as well and could resist this $25 pair!


I also bought a royal blue maxi skirt and a white tee with a black collar but couldn’t find a picture of either of these :(

So all these items only cost me about $200 in total, when many people would spend that much on one dress! Which is fine of course, but this is the secret to my massive wardrobe.
