Coveting: New in this week #3

This week I've decided to go with a bit of a theme: basics with a twist. I love the printed denim waistcoat and jeans, and the blouse with pleated shoulders is divine, but my absolute favourites are the glittery cat eye sunglasses and the kitten face loafers. Predictably, these are also the most expensive items and well out of my budget! I'll be scouring ebay for some similar items, but fingers crossed I'll have a job and some disposable income if and when the  originals fall into the net a porter sale!

Coveting: New in this week #2

I finally finished my last exam on Monday, and since then have been spending many hours lapping up the sunshine, eating ice cream and catching up with my housemates - it seemed as though we hadn't seen each other at all since revision had kicked in, so it was great to just be able to hang out together again without the weight of exams or essays looming over us.

My favourite things from the shops this week reflect my current carefree state of mind: lots of girly pastels, flowers and swishy dresses. Long may the summer continue!

Coveting: New in this week

Revision has been taking it's toll this week (my final exam is on monday - just a few more days to go!) and I've been spending most of my breaks wandering wistfully past shop windows or browsing online. I went into Superdrug for the first time in YEARS yesterday and bought my first ever MUA products and was blown away by how cheap everything in the range is! I got quite a range of stuff, I'll probably do a post on that at some point. 

Anyway, this post is a product of long days spent at my desk with only Plato and Euripides for company. Lots of colour, pattern, and sparkle! I'm sure the Ancient Greeks would have approved...
