In the Bag... with Zara

I am loving this bag from Zara

A Touch of Pink

February never seems to last very long does it?  We are almost done with it already and it seems it just began a couple of days ago.  It is probably a good thing as it is generally a damp and dismal month. Aside from providing us with the chance to stuff ourselves senseless on pancakes and receive chocs and flowers it really is a nonenity, just 28/29 days to pass between January and March.

As we slip closer to March I have found myself thinking about including a touch of pink in my wardrobe and this outfit below would give me the chance to wear my bargain Boden leopard shoes too!

My Best Buys for Keeping Warm this Winter

Well, I've finally got my Blog mo-jo back after Christmas. It has taken a few weeks but here I am.

I have been running a few ideas through my head over the past few weeks of Blog silence and this morning I finally decided that my first post of 2016 would be about the lovely snuggly purchases I have made over the last few months.

Mango Outlet bargains

It's so easy to get sidetracked on the Internet isn't it?
There I was yesterday just checking instagram, when I saw a shot of a very nice Zara military style jacket and I was off browsing, first Zara and then Mango with a few others in between. Yes, I made a couple of purchases, nothing too exciting but some good quality basics for my autumnal/winter wardrobe.
 My meanderings took me to Mango Outlet which lists lots of quality pieces including Cashmere-blend, Alpaca, Wool, Suede and Leather at discounted prices. I couldn't just choose one or two to include on this post so have probably gone overboard but what the heck! Enjoy, and I hope you find one or two things to enhance your A/W wardrobe from this little lot..

Autumn Style: Midi/Maxi Dress Edit

Following my A/W Wishlist (part 1) post last week, I have decided to do a run of posts looking at each wishlist item in turn, in more detail, starting with the Midi/Maxi Dress.

So let's begin with some photographic inspiration ...
