Halo braid by Blow Ltd

 

 

Yesterday I had the first birthday party of my best friends gorgeous little man, it was so much fun and a such lovely day for him. This is what I decided to wear - my boyfriend had bought me lots of clothes for my birthday which is in a couple of weeks and this top and pinafore are two of the items that he very nicely let me have early.

High necked tops are big for AW15 and this bright stripy one by Monki I loveeeee. Such a great price at £15 too.

As a big fan of dungarees, I've wanted a denim pini for a while. I feel like this midi one is more of a grown up version and I love the frayed hem.

 

Now lets talk about my hair, I had my work party on Friday night to celebrate 15 years of Net-A-Porter it was fairground themed and so much fun. We had pop up beauty in the office that day to help us get party ready so I  got this halo braid done by Blow. It was done in 15 minutes and I loved it so much I had to keep it in for the party yesterday too.

Kenzo Paris

Top - Zara

Jeans - Topshop

Shoes - River Island

Bag - Kenzo (www.Net-A-Porter.com)

A pretty simple outfit but one I always go to when the weather has a little bit of a turn and the sun decides to go into hiding - you can't beat a little white boho top with jeans.

My Kenzo bag is one of my Net-A-Porter sale purchases. It had been in my wish list for a while so I was super happy when I managed to nab it in the sale, there's nothing I love more than a bargain.

My River Island shoesies I fell in love with instore - I love the printed faux leather and the way they are more sandal like than normal espadrilles. I wore them for the first time in Amsterdam when I went earlier this month and they were/are super comfortable. I've literally just got back from a work trip in New York and the weather really isn't great here. Hopefully the sun comes back ready for the weekend!

Sale Buys - NET-A-PORTER.COM | MY-WARDROBE.COM | ASOS | ZARA | TOPSHOP

There's no better time of the year for me than when the sales start. As sad as this may sound, my life pretty much revolves around fashion and clothes. Looking good is a very big thing to me so getting bargains and more things for my money is fab. I got some high end and high street pieces. It's no secret that I work at Net-A-Porter (well I finished on Friday as I am off to Vogue!!) and they very generously give us our staff discount off of sale items as well, so of course I couldn't help having a little splurge.

NET-A-PORTER.COM

Kenzo Jumper

Unfortunately this jumper has sold out now, but it was 40% off at £102. The logo is sequins and it's actually a gorgeous shade of mint which the pictures unfortunately don't show up very well. 

Chinti & Parker breton

The heart print pocket on this breton definitely won me over. It went down to £45 (half price) and I class this as an investment piece because breton tops are timeless and I will wear it for years and years until it actually falls apart. 

Stella McCartney tank and J.Crew weekdays Tee

As mentioned in one of my last posts, I have recently joined the gym. I got this tank as I love allll of the Adidas Stella McCartney bits and I like to try and look a little bit stylish whilst I work out. The J.Crew weekdays top I had my eye on for a while and it went down to £28.

As mentioned before high end lingerie is something I always like to buy...especially during the sales as it makes it a lot more affordable.

L'Agent by Agent Provocateur lingerie set

L'Agent by Agent Provocateur is a design collaboration between Penelope Cruz and AP and I'm so happy I managed to buy a set as I'd been lusting since I first saw them at work being shot in the studio. I don't think there are many sizes left on NAP but House of Fraser online have the set as I had to buy my knickers from there as they had already sold out. The bra is £35, thong £18, and briefs £19.50 in the House of Fraser sale.

Elle Macpherson Intimates Safari set in pink.

Now this set was a serious bargain. The bra is down to £15 and the knickers down to £10 and that was without my added discount. You would pay more than that for a set from the High Street and this is a perfect every day set. 

ZARA

Top - £5.99          Shorts - £15.99

Top - £12.99

TOPSHOP

Top - £8    Jeans - £25

I was so happy when I found this bunny tee in Toppers whilst browsing at lunch as it had sold out pretty much straight away online. 

ASOS

Nike Roshe Runs - £49

 

With ASOS being the last sale to start I had pretty much spent all of my shopping budget so I was sensible (for once) and ordered the one thing I'd want for ages...some black Nike trainers. How cool are they?!

MY-WARDROBE.COM

Lulu & Co embellished flower Tee £35// Lulu & Co sweater £49 (both 50% off)

I don't have these pieces to hand to take a photo of them but these were my first sale purchase. They are both reduced even further now top £28 and sweater £24 - soooo cheap! Luckily they don't have my size left otherwise I wouldn't be very happy!

 

 

What do you think of my bits? Did you get lots of bargains?
