Charity shop OOTD (LEVIS SHORTS)

I haven't been on here for a while! I have so much still to blog about and a week off work so hopefully I should be able to fit in a few blog posts and try to keep you updated on my latest finds! Today I am uploading 2 blogposts. This one and a date night outfit one :)

So today's outfit consists of one of my most exciting favourite finds ever!!!!! My levis shorts!!! These were around £3 I think, and I haven't even blogged about them! I love them ever so much! They are a bit baggy but I hate tights jeans, where you sit down and you are suddenly bulding out of them! So I am enjoying the baggy denim shorts look, making me get my legs out this summer which I usually hate doing! :) The top that I have paired with them is something I actually found today for £4.95, it's originally select and has a pretty stripy floral pattern on. It's a size 16 and I love the way it fits (Just the right amount of baggy when tucked in) I have teamed the outfit with some gorgeous pointed brogues a friend gave me because they didn't fit her and some frilly socks. Enjoy the pictures :)

Different patterns haul.

I love mid week days off :) Today was one of them, and my Dad also had a day off so we thought we would go out to Cromer :) There was actually a carboot sale there today that we looked around but I didn't get anything so not much to blog about there... my dad got some metal rusty thing though.. he seemed pretty excited about  it.. and he also got some really really old Norfolk maps... he was also very excited about these.. weird man.

I got more lucky in the charity shops, picking up 2 tops, a playsuit and a tray for my nail varnishes. I haven't taken photos the tops, or the tray, but photos will come :) The tray is pretty and floral though, and lives on my window sill with my nail varnishes looking pretty on it. One top is spotty and one is floral :)

So first thing I found was a playsuit with a perfume bottle design all over it. It's originally asos and super cute. I didn;t try it on in the shop because it was quite busy, and as it was only £3.50 I just figured if it didn't fit I'd give it away or something, but thankfully it fits perfect!

It's a lovely classy shape, wraps around my boobs and tucks me in just under them. Also keeps me nice and covered up top but shows my legs off (with tights on :P)

I paired it with simple suede black heels from Newlook (but I found them on ebay) and would also pair it with a black clutch if I was too go out.

 This photo shows the pattern a bit clearer, lots of different perfume bottle designs repeated :) Cute!

After Cromer, we popped to North Walsham, which is the town closest to where I live, it has LOTS of charity shops! I found a skirt, some bath stuff and a jumper :) I won't be blogging about the bath stuff although it is beauticology and chocolate scented, buuuut I shall be blogging about the clothes :)

The shirt is super pretty, blue with little white hearts on, it is originally primark and had the tag on for £6, I paid £3.99 :)

I teamed with a little white shirt from a charity shop, jelly shoes, and a charity shop find bag from ages ago, I proper reminded myself of the characters in Grease in this outfit :P

The next thing I found was a super cute jumper for £4.99! I found it in the same charity shop as the skirt :) It has boats all over it, and is super soft! It's by Frederik Anderson Copenhagen.. I have a feeling it's a men's jumper but I don't know much about the brand at all?? I teamed this with a spotty primark shirt that I cut the sleeves off, newlook jeans, primark bag and peacocks boots :) A more casual look than usual!

This is definitely an outfit I'd wear for a casual day out! The jumper is so cute! Ahhh sailing boots! And yes I love scrunchies atm!

So yes these were some of the things I got today :)

Quick post with some haul updates.

So I have been really lucky recently and have found LOADS at charity shops and have a huge post to do, but have been really busy so am going to try and do it Wednesday next week but I styled some of the items quickly the other day so thought I would put up some of the photos I took when I styled them :)

Thought I would style my new checked shirt from a charity shop, originally George with my new dog tooth flatforms from ebay :) Loving patterns atm! This shirt is super comfy, I am pree much living in it! It's a size 18 but I don't think it actually is... it's really nice and baggy and soft :)

Ooh change of scenery.. out in the ugly bit of the garden haha.

Wearing my new cut off trousers from a charity shop originally love label and a black blazer also from a charity shop, originally George. Super love this trousers!! espescially with heels for a cute sophisticated look. and I have been looking for a black blazer for ages and this one is so soft and silk like :)

So I took this pic to test my camera as I filmed a quick haul video with all my charityshop stuff, you can see the big pile next to me!! 

Right so a bit of a random post today, sorry about that! Now I'm away for the weekend so will post on Wednesday :) xxx

Big charity shop haul and TROUSERS.

So today was my day off but I had to be at work at 9 to see some lady about an NHS card thing and so she could take my photo. I was only there for 10 minutes so ofcourse I then went charity shop shopping. I was pretty successful today! I got atleast one thing from nearly every shop I went in! I also got TROUSERS! And shorts!! I think I have blogged before about how scared I was about doing this challenge because I have never been able to get trousers/jeans/shorts from charity shops but today I got a pair of trousers, jeans, and some shorts! I also got a dressing gown, a bag, a dress and 2 puzzles... 

So first up.. these lovely patterned gypsy like trousers. They are loose and soft and lovely! Makes me never want to wear jeans again tbh! Because they are quite loud and patterned I just quickly styled them with a black top, scarf from my last haul and an owl necklace. Comfy outfit that would be perfect for uni/rehearsals/lazy day :) These were originally from Marks and Spencers and cost me £4.49

Pretty pattern!

Turned the bottoms up :)

With my charity shop brogues :)

I have like no shorts that fit me, maybe one denim pair but I only wear them in the summer so when I saw this thick grey ones I got excited cos I instantly imagined them with boots, tights and layers :) They are orginally from French Connection and cost me £2

I LOVELOVELOVE this dress, it's originally Primark and oh so cute, and fits lovely and the style is super cute and flattering for my shape (tight on boobs loose on bum/belly/hips) It's so girly and lovely and cost me £4 I think :)

I also got a bag, a dressing gown and some puzzles. The bag and dressing gown are on my instagram.. lovelyweatherforducks

I am yet to blog about my 2 new velvet dresses that I got from ebay for charity and my new makeup brushes but they will come soon :)

Hope you've enjoyed the haul!

Patterns and colour. Charity shop haul!

Today is my day off this week and it is also my Mum and Dad's day off too which is really exciting because we hardly ever get a day together all 3 of us so we decided to go to Sheringham which is a nearby seaside town :) I thought it would give me chance to get some charity shop bits and it did! It has about 6 charity shops I think, and some were full of loads of goodies! My parents did well in them! Getting shoes, jeans, hat, gloves, jacket, and a shirt!
I was pretty impressed with my purchases too!

I got:
1 tweed like blazer originally from H&M for £4.95
1 patterned woolen scarf for £1.99
1 patterned silk like scarf for £2.00
1 blue jumper from F&F for £4.99

I find charity shops a good way to make risks with clothing, buying things you wouldn't normally buy! I always look at other people in tweed and I think it looks gorgeous but I would never have got a tweed patterned blazer full price I don't think, but this way I figured if I didn't like it, it was less than a fiver, and I gave to charity but I do like it! It's a size above what I usually am so I can layer under it if I choose :) It also has elbow patches which are cute, and really adds to the posh factor...

The scarf I picked up is really cute too. Tartan and checked patterns are really in atm and I have a tartan scarf but it's not woolen and it's quite long! I have been after a short one that I don't have to wrap around, for quite a while and this one is the perfect length and also goes with my blazer!

I have a bit of an obsession with scarves and have quite a few! I really need to start wearing them all.. I just get excited about the patterns and saw this one and thought it was super duper cute and the colours are lovely, I also like how the main colour is white as I have quite a few dark ones!


The last thing I picked up was the blue jumper in the photo! It's woolen and super soft and really comfortable, I like it with just leggings because it's kind of a thrown on outfit but because of the colour and texture it's like you have made more effort than you have! The scarf also looks super cute with it! What a comfy purchase :)

More photos...

What a good day :) xx

£10.16 Charity shop haul.

That's right, I went shopping in charity shops again! My absolute favourite thing to do! I went in my nearest town, they have quite a few charity shops, I went in 5 of them and got 4 items and only spent £10.16! And 2p of that was on a plastic bag! I am sooooo chuffed with my finds!! :D

Green peplum dress for £1.50 originally new look

Stripy red and black babydoll/skater dress for £4.99 originally newlook

Shiny white blouse/Shirt for £1.40

Floral bag for £2.25 says hazmat on the buttons?

Proper good finds and I am so chuffed even though I did choose to go shopping mg instead of paying rent to my mother and going for a meal with Matt oops but so so worth it! Am going mg to work on putting some outfits together for better photis i think aka non mirror ones! Also another thing I am happy about is that I didn't try the peplum on and it's a size 10 and fits nice :)
