Bargain Tuesday: Spring in the office

Good morning!

Despite being very tired, I am in a surprisingly good mood today. I say this as I went to a viewing yesterday - after work, and when I got there they showed me two flats - none of which was the one I went for, as that one was already taken.. Safe to say, neither was to my liking or needs.. Infuriating!

Anyways, the sun is shining and I figured it would be a perfect day to have a spring theme for the bargains this Tuesday:






And the best part - the whole outfit comes in at £29.99..

I am too good...

DIY Ballerinas with ankle strap

Due to my recent obsession with Pinterest, I am absolutely addicted to DIY ideas, and when I saw these ballerinas in Zara a while back, I was sure I could make something similar...





The good thing with these, is that you can change the strap to fit your outfit.. Genius and cost effective! Can't say fairer than that, now can we?!

All you need is a pair of ballerinas, some kind of ribbon and whatever material you chose for your ankle strap.. You could use a number of things; fabric, chains, bracelets, braided ribbons etc.. As the bf is away for a mere two weeks now, I think I'll get my artistic groove on this weekend!

Happy Monday by the way - hope you're having a great start to the week :)

The longest week ever.. And a floral maxi

This has to be the longest week ever!

I was ready to give up on Tuesday, so you can imagine how I feel today.. Aaaah one more sleep and it's finally Friday!!! The only thing cheering me up right now is the thought of going home next week for my beautiful niece's naming ceremony.. Baby time! Yay, being an auntie is the best thing ever - you can get all your cuddles and giggles in and then hand them back when they start crying :)

Unfortunately, that's a whole week away, and meanwhile I'm stuck in gloomy, grey England...

Surely spring should have been on its way by now?!

I want to be wearing dresses and skirts and t-shirts and whatnot..

At the moment, I am loving this pleated maxi from Matalan of all places.. Perfect allrounder as it can easily be dressed both up and down.. Officially on my wish list for summer..



Dress from Matalan.


Hope you're having a good day!

Floral clutch

Can you believe that the sun is actually warming me up today?! Well, on this side of the window that is.. It certainly looks beautiful and of course I am daydreaming of open shoes and other signs of spring..

As such, I thought this clutch would fit perfect in today's post!


Clutch from Dorothy Perkins


I am loving the vintage look of it! And at just £15 it's quite a little bargain as well..

White on white

Definitely not a trend for me - simply because I'm far too clumsy to dress in white..

Believe you me - I've tried :p



 Collage borrowed from H&M.


I think you have to think this one through, though, as you can't just throw on anything white and expect it to work.. My favourite is definitely the lady with the tulle skirt - she's nailed it :)
