I'm sure I speak for many when I say shopping is great but it can also be super frustrating. I hate being surrounded by screaming children and boyfriends holding bags along with never being able to find exactly what I want, oh and sometimes I am just really not in the mood to spend my hard earned cash. However when pay-day came around at the end of February I decided I wouldn't let anything defeat me. I was going to head out and Treat Myself!

Walking past H&M kickstarted the fun. I instantly fell in love with a Denim Pinafore Dress. I have a bit of thing for denim dresses and already have way too many but this was different. A lighter denim with a pinched in elasticated waist and is calf length. Perfect for work and for those hopeful warm summer days to come.
I then spotted a great blue and white striped shirt. I have been after one for a while and thought this was great. Relaxed and comfortable and not too smart which I like. I bought a 14 even though I'm usually an 8 as I wanted that boyfriend shirt feel.  I would definitely suggest doing this as it looks great!

New Look
I haven't been to New Look for a while and rarely pop on to their website when I'm having a browse but I definitely need to as I found some great staple pieces.
Let's start on bags! You can never have too many black bags and that's exactly why I treated myself to two. The Black Suedette Shoulder Box Bag is great for a night out with plenty of space for all the essentials and I really loved the shaping as it's something a bit different. My second bag is another of my purchases of something I have been looking for for a while, a Black Leather-look Backpack. I just think that it will be great for when I go on holiday in a couple of months time, along with any other short trips away. I decided on getting the larger size, probably so I can fit more stuff in it that I really don't need, but at least it will fit my laptop in too which will probably be pretty helpful in the future.
I also picked up some Black Snakeskin Textured Slip On Trainers. This is a repeat purchase as my previously similar shoes are completely wrecked from over wearing them. Wearing them on nights out in Nottingham probably didn't help that but they are just so comfortable.
My next purchase was the beautiful Khaki Tie Waist Trousers. I feel like I'm in jeans too much and have been eyeing these up for a while and I'm so happy I took the plunge. They are comfortable, smart and great for a day to night outfit.
The final piece - the stunning Double Layer Frill Bardot. For anyone that knows me knows that I love a bardot and I can't wait for Summer to get them all back out again. However I thought why not get a new one this season and I feel I have made a great choice.



Maybe this will stop me thinking I have no clothes for a couple of weeks.
