All photographs were taken on 5th February 2011. I was wearing a dress that I got from New Look a couple of years back, skinny jeans from GAP, boots from a shoe shop in Brugge, Belgium, and a cardigan from Monsoon, that I also got quite a few years ago. A lot of my clothes are mix and match from different places, and often old and new. The fun is in creating a wardrobe that fits who you are; and if that means you want to throw out all your clothes and start again, then so be it, but I’m more of a hoarder, I find it hard to throw things out, especially clothes, so I often end up with a bulging wardrobe! I try not to buy too many clothes, and just rework the clothes I have…but I can’t deny that I do like to buy new clothes from time to time…
One of my favourite shops at the moment is H&M, and whilst my favourite shops for a long time was Topshop, I now find their clothes are over-priced for what they are, and the styles are sometimes a bit too out-there for my liking. I will pop in to the shop from time to time, but I often leave empty-handed these days. Jewellery is also a great way to dress up and customise an outfit, and I must say, that for someone who is setting up a jewellery business, I don’t wear anywhere near enough jewellery myself, which must be changed! I have a little collection of necklaces and bracelets from over the years; my favourite type of jewellery is probably bracelets, so I should probably keep an eye out for interesting ones…and maybe they’ll pop up on my Christmas wishlist…!
What are your favourite shops, and why?
Hope you’re all having a lovely Sunday x
