in the air

So this month has started positively with me spending far too much money in Zara! Despite there being a Five Guys (of all things) in Guildford, we are lacking a Zara... which quite honestly devastates me. I mean, really? What's going on! So when I was in Southampton last weekend I made sure I popped in to dose up on sartorial happiness... oh, and IKEA, naturally.

Denim Shirt Heeled Sandals Striped Dress Tan Sandals

Over the past few summers I've lived in my denim shirt; but the poppers don't seem to hold up to much pressure these days leading to more than one embarrassing peepshow type moment! This one is a really nice dark, thick denim with cute peter pan collar - and the best bit, £19.99. The dress was a great find, as I'd tried on this Topshop version a few weeks back but wasn't wowed by the fit. This has fancy sleeves, is a little baggy and oversized (even in a Small) and would look great with tights and boots, but also in summer with bare legs and sandals. Dreaming of warmer weather...!

And lastly, onto the sandals. The flats I tried on in store and loved, again £19.99, especially the sort of asymmetric look they've got going on. I've ordered them online along with these beautiful heeled sandals which were a complete bargain (in my eyes) at under £40. Heel height - tick, buckle detail - tick, colour - tick. It's love!
