When was the last time you really laughed? I mean like one of those side splitting, belly laughs that you very nearly, almost pee yourself? When was the last time you did something probably quite absurd that would have your parents/grandparents recoiling in horror? When did you like do something on a whim without a care in the world? And, when was the last time you took a time out with adulting and took time to embrace your inner child?
Boucle Jacket Boohoo Boutique (eBay) | Top New Look (eBay) | Skirt H&M (eBay) | Shoes Primark
Yes. As you guessed it from the title, I love a good boucle jacket & this one is not to be ignored! As you know I spend A LOT of my spare time browsing through eBay trying to find all the trends at a fraction of the price. Some say I am ‘’The Thrifty Shopping Queen’’ and it’s a title I quite like thank you very much.
When I won this jacket for a mere £2.99 (plus postage!) I was more than excited to try it on and wear it out. I love the blue & white porcelain style to it, the jacket is a little different to what you would find on the high street & that is one of the main reasons I love it! I don’t like to wear something that is off the shelf and readily available and if I do I like to give it my own twist.
I paired it with a little crop top and lace cream skirt to keep it quite cute and girly! I love the way my heels completely elongate my legs (Yep, I think I just got a cheeky #ILoveMyselfBecause… hashtag in there!)
All in all this outfit came under £20 and I think it is great for a lovely lunch date or even office wear! The jacket is so versatile and could jazz up any outfit!
HAT C/O THE HUT || JUMPER TOPSHOP || DRESS eBay || SHOES CAMDEN MARKET
When I started to put this outfit together I felt like I was having a ‘’Throwback Thursday’’ moment because it looked like I had just jumped out of the 70’s. Especially the light brown colour of the Topshop netted jumper. I literally cannot wait to wear it at Leeds Festival teamed with a cute pair of shorts!
The dress was a bargain find on eBay and cost me £3.98. I wanted a light cami dress for the Festival and didn’t want to spend a fortune, just in case it get’s ruined.
The shoes are such a delight and from Camden Market. My manager just handed them to me one day ‘You’re a size 5 right?’’ and plonked them on my desk, best boss ever? Yes, I think so!
As a rather larger, busted lady it was nice to wear an outfit that feels like I’m hiding them quite well!
I love to find bargains online & on the high street. All in all this out fit cost me less than £10. It’s not often you can say you have got a whole outfit for under a tenner, is it?
What’s the thriftiest outfit you have ever bought, I’d love to hear!
