July shopping list/admission of guilt

Hi :)

I've not gone mad, i know it is still June but just a quick list of all the things I want (want being the key word here) by the end of July.

  • No surprise, first thing on the list is a hair doughnut
  • Denim shirt - I want just a really casual light (in rinse and in fabric) denim shirt that I can wear over tea dresses tied at the waist to rough up the look or open over leggings with maybe a stripey long vest or flowery cami
  • Oversized black suede clutch bag- the wedding is just about 2 weeks away and still not sure about an outfit but I have a lot of stand by's as you know and I'm ok for shoes but I really want an oversized clutch (suede is preferable but not a must). I've always wanted one so if i find the perfect one I don't mind spending a decent amount (aka more than £5 lol) I bought a leather black clutch the other day from House of Fraser so that is my stand by bag.
  • Light wash skinny jeans/jeggings - just another summer buy really; don't worry, I won't wear it with my denim shirt lol
  • Maxi dress - I really really really want one but in two minds about it. On the one hand, maxi dresses hides all my sins and it's not hard to find one in a 'normal' shop that fits, but on the other hand I don't want to look like I'm smuggling 10 sacks of potatoes (and I do!).....I will keep an eye out but this may not be something I can tick off my list :( .....this also reminds me that I want to write a post about "just cos it fits doesn't mean you should wear it" - note to self!!
  • Clogs - interestingly enough I wrote about clogs in one of my first ever blog posts and I want to jump on the band wagon please! Not actually seen a real person wear a pair but that doesn't mean I can't. I'm thinking tan leather and wooden midi heel with brass hardwear. Yeah baby!
  • Peg cropped trousers - I don't think these are in fashion this season but I really want to rock the look to work (office). I'm thinking peg trousers, frilly blouse and my clogs with my giant philip lim bagel bun...? If not I can wear it to Saturday job with....whatever and nude pumps....? Note to self: good luck finding a pair fatty!!
Ok that's probably £200 worth of stuff I don't need so I can stop there.

...erm, i did something naughty last night. I spent £175 online at ASOS. Oops. And this is after my Boots spree and complaining about having 42p in my account (so I now have minus 235.42, probably less with my last minute direct debit going out). Oh feck.

I am really excite though!!! And i qualified for free shipping so it will be delivered tomorrow (but I will be leaving home at 9:45am so what will happen to my parcel!?). Cannot wait to show you :)
And to be fair, originally there was £268 worth of stuff in my 'basket' so I did 'put back' a lot of stuff - I dumped make up, and a few really OOT dresses that I would never wear.

Wish I didn't spend in Boots and ASOS though cos I went onto the Evans website and there are about 5 pairs of shoes I really want that were an absolute bargain and that order would have definitely broke the camel/credit card's back.

So I'm going shopping with my mum tomorrow (maybe i should have started by explaining that haha) so fingers crossed I get at least 2 things off my 'shopping list'.

Have a great week folks! xxx
