OOTD - ft my Pompom.



*Apologies in advance for a heavy New Look/Topshop post!*









Felt fedora Hat - Charity shop - £3.49
Quilted Coat - New Look - £39.99 ( I think? It was a 2012 Christmas present.) 
Black long sleeved top - New Look - £4.99
Florescent pink Aztec trousers - Topshop - £28.00 - Similar ones here.  (And in the sale!)
Fringed cross the body bag - TK Maxx - £20.00 
Black canvas lace up Boots - Topshop - £35.00 

 Even though summer is officially over for another year (boohoo!) that definitely hasn't stopped me from wearing my bright pink Topshop trousers. I mean, every dull day needs a bit of colour, right? Saying that, I don't just think it was the day needed brightening up, it was more so for me too. 

 As Autumn/Winter makes an appearance, my wardrobe tends to be, let's say; on the more darker side. So these gorgeous trousers really added that pop of colour to my outfit. Even in the Summer, you could team these trousers with a white crop top or a loose fitting t-shirt for the Springtime.

 Months had gone by where I found myself lusting after, and being drawn to, the fedora in Topshop. However, I couldn't really justify spending twenty five pounds on a hat, so when I saw this through the window of a charity shop whilst at work, I knew I had to have it! 

 And have it, I shall! After my shift I practically ran over there so that no one else could have it and bought it for an amazing £3.49! Also I received advice from the lady who served me about how to keep felt hats clean without risking the loss of shape. (Stuff the hat tightly with newspaper, and then hover it over a boiling kettle.) Learn something new every day, ey?

Onto another one of my favourite bargains; my fringed bag! Obviously, you can never go wrong with a black handbag (such a staple piece to any outfit!) After watching, and obsessing over, 'Girlfriends' on ITV2, I noticed that one of the girls had a black fringed bag, and immediately it was on my wishlist for the Autumn/Winter.

You know when you want something and you don't even know how to start about getting it, that's how I felt about this bag; I didn't want to spend a lot of money on a bag yet wanting a fairly decent one. 

Luckily, my mum and I took a trip to TK Maxx (one of our favourite stores, especially for homeware!) and found this ideal fringed bag for only £20.00 bargain! It's only faux leather, but definitely feels and looks like the real mccoy.

Let me know what you think?

Have you found any bargains that you're currently in love with?

P.S - I forgot to add, in one of these photos my wonderful little Pomeranian made an appearance, always has to be part of everything and anything. She'll probably be in a lot more photos as she refuses to leave me alone. If you follow me on Instagram (@daisygraceox), you'll know that the majority of my photos are of her.

P.P.S - It's been a long time since my last blog post, for reasons I don't know (time just flies by!) But, I will be posting more often, so be prepared to see more of me, my outfits, my bargains (that I get far too excited about) and my little doggie :)
