Rock Style for under £5

Last month I found this Christian Audigier tee for only £1.60 in the British Heart Foundation. So I paired with this black denim mini, also from the same charity shop for only £2.99.

The sandals were gifted, so all in all an outfit for less than a fiver!!

What has been your best bargain this summer?

Opulence for Autumn and Winter

One of the upcoming trends for next season is Opulence, as highlighted in Augusts edition of Harpers Bazaar. I do enjoy their catwalk features of whats new and it inspired one of my recent thrift purchases:

I found this cute little bolero jacket by Mark One (now defunct) in the Salvation Army charity shop and it was marked down to £1!! So I just had to buy it.

Its versatile for wearing in the summer, with a black cami top and jeans and in winter I'll wear a long sleeve black wool polo neck jumper and black cigarette pants with it:

Will you be going opulent next season?

Thrift Inspiration, Topshop Style

During my blog absence, I still having been picking up pieces for my wardrobe. As always, denim and particularly biker styles have been on my radar and this Topshop Biker Leather Jacket, new in for the coming season, is very inspirational for the current trend:

Leather Biker Jacket, £150

So, I was pleased to pick up this MOTO Topshop denim biker jacket last month for a bargainous £4.99 in my local Sue Ryder charity shop:

The back detail is quite unique and unusual and this will be a keeper in my wardrobe for a while to come. Denim and particularly Biker styles trends, look to continue into the next season.

What trends are on your radar for the upcoming season?

Hello Everyone-I think I may be back!!!

Well, after a very long hiatus and after deleting and reinstating my blog-I think I'm back!!

A lot has been happening in my personal life and I really gave blogging a back seat, just wasn't really in the right frame of mind to give any time to fashion and style personally, although I was visiting your blogs to see what you were all up to!!

I'm not sure how regular I will be with posting, but I'm really going to try my best to visit you and leave my tuppence worth, lol!!

I hope you are all enjoying the blog sales that are going on today- a lot of buying and selling going on with some very nice pieces still available-am tempted myself, but funds say other wise!!

Wishing you all a great week ahead and will hope to visit you soon too!!

A Big Thanks, But not quite back yet!!!

I just wanted to say a big MASSIVE THANK YOU to all my followers, commenters and blogger friends who have visited me in the last month and left lovely messages.

They are so much appreciated and I do not want anyone to think I'm deliberately ignoring them. I've a lot going on in my personal life, which is leaving me mentally and physically drained out and I just wanted you all to know that I do want to be back at some point soon!!

Wishing you all a very lovely weekend and even though I'm not necessarily commenting on a lot of your blogs, I am reading and enjoying, so keep up the excellent work!!
