March Clothing Buys

Afternoon my little rays of sunshines :)

I thought i would do a little clothing related post today. I've been trying to cut down on my monthly clothing purchases due to the fact I have about 4 birthdays coming up, none of which are mine, and one of which is my boyfriend's.. (and another my best friend's). They could have atleast spread their birthdays out just a little bit...? It's only fair?.. 

Nonetheless, i still found an excuse to buy some stuff - i will never get through a whole month without atleast one little shopping expedition..

 Black & White Lace Dress - £48 - ASOS

I originally wanted the nude colour, however they didn't have my size so i opted for the black and white. Kind of glad i did now as i think it has a bit more 'oomph' to it - I'm planning on wearing this with a pair of nude patent heels and a tan (courtesy of the good ol' St Moriz) on a night out with the best friend for her birthday.

 Mint Skater Dress with Sparkles - £36 - Topshop

I loved it when i first saw it and just had to have it in my life. This one is from the petite section in Topshop - and i have to say it's quite short so i'll probably have to pair this with the trusty tights unless i'm feeling particularly brave with the legs! I just love the colour and it can be dressed up or down for daytime or a night out.

Lace Fringed Crop Top - £12.99 - H&M

I love fringed tops - especially for the summer as they dress up any shorts or simple skirts in an instant. They also look great with skinny jeans and heels.

Lace Shorts - £21.99 - New Look

I must have snatched these out of the poor sales assistants hands when she was placing them on the rail as i've been after a pair of lace shorts ever since i spotted a pair in Zara a few weeks ago (they never had my size back in *cryscryss*). I later realised they also sell these in a lovely pink/coral colour so i'm a bit gutted i went for the cream pair (i have waaaay too much cream in my wardrobe - that'll teach me for being so flipping impatient!).

Scalloped Collar Blouse - £10 - Primark

I can't decide if i actually like this or not as the shape of it once on actually reminds me of my work shirt (*shudders*), but i didn't buy it to wear on it's own - i thought i might wear this underneath my plain jumpers when the weather is a bit chillier. I just love the little collar.

Beige Patent Cross Strap Wedges - £24.99 - New Look

Suprisingly comfy enough to walk in but i must admit my feet didn't thank me the first time i wore them due to the fact they've been in comfy brogues and boots all winter! They will go with anything and being a wedge i can wear them in the day with skinny jeans without looking too overdressed.

Flower Headbands - £1 each (Sale) - Primark

I just love Primark's little headbands and accessories - i'll be wearing these in the summertime or on holiday when i want to shove my hair up - they brighten up any boring hairstyle!




So much for my spending ban! I still have yet to buy everybodys birthday presents (and i need to pay my car tax - grrr) but i'm sure there will be another little clothing haul popping up on my blog again very soon... I just can't help myself!
