A little injection of colour & pattern.

If i'm being completely honest, I really struggle to buy clothes (shocker!) around this time of the year. One day it's a typical autumn day, then the next it's clear blue skies with temperatures nearing the twenty's again! How are we supposed to buy Autumn/Winter gear when summer is still making an appearance.

Mind you, even though I haven't been proper shopping, i.e just having to stop for a coffee because you've bought the whole of Topshop, I have purchased a couple of items which I know will be my staples throughout Autumn and Winter.

                                            

 Look! There's no black! (except the black on the leopard print!) BUT how sassy are these boots! I love them, They look great with blue or black jeans or an all black outfit (staying true to the monochrome!) They're not too high so they are perfect for everyday, I managed to wear them for about 6 hours without feeling uncomfortable! These beauts are £45 from ASOS - same style here or similar here, 

Finally, THE jumper. Is it possible to love a jumper this much?! 

You'll probably all seen the Crayola jumper from UNIF, the primary colour version of this jumper, but UNIF has released the Frost jumper, which is the pastel version. I had to have it as I've have my eye on the Crayola one for some time now, so when the Selfridges Instagram posted this, I ordered it straight away with no hesistation! It's so cosy and warm and slightly reminds me of the 80's, I love loud and bright jumpers you can really wear with anything as they are an outfit in itself!

I purchased mine from Selfridges here in an XS and I'm so glad I did. The way it was packaged was amazing, I've never shopped on Selfridges online and it certainly won't be my last!

I posted a photo of it in it's packaging on my instagram - @daisygraceox

What do you think?

Are you as obsessed with these type of prints like me?

P.S I also love it when brands name their clothes! (Is that just me?)

Primark Haulin'

 Hands up, I went into Primark and had a bit of a splurge the other week, when I should have really saved the money. In all fairness though, I haven't been into Primark for a while, especially when winter is now on its way out and we're finally seeing the sun set at six rather than half four! 

 I had a week off work recently and of course it's no week off without a little shopping eh? But definitely couldn't afford the prices of Topshop, as much as I love that place, I always seem to feel bad for my poor bank balance as I put my card into the machine, even though I've only bought a pair of jeans and a couple of T-shirts.

 So after watching various Youtubers showcasing their new Primark items (such as: Patricia Bright), I knew I had to get down there and see what I could pick up!

All of the items below came to around £60, I also bought necessities like cotton pads and some basic underwear (that I don't think you'd be all that interested in!)

Black floral structured T-shirt - £10

Black T- Shirt - £3

Silver spike drop necklace - £4

Aztec necklace - £4

(Not the best picture!)

 Mint blue faux leather pencil skirt - £10

Leopard print skort - £10

(Has a matching blazer which I regret not buying.)

Acid wash denim shorts - £10

 Okay, these aren't from Primark, but I just had too! These babies are from H&M and only cost £12.99! WHAT A BARGAIN! I was looking at a pair in Topshop, exactly the same, for over double the price!

Click here for these beauts!

It's quite obvious that Primark have got the summer of 2014 trend down to a T! Even though their prices have slightly increased a bit, but still so affordable! I would definitely recommend you to go for a good wander!

Have you been into Primark recently?

If so, how do you like their take on SS14?

Until next time,
