coat - new look

dress - new look (v. old!)

scarf - dorothy perkins

hat - next

boots - charlies

I treated myself to this adorable owl hat in November time, I was quite surprised at the price of £10 as I find Next to be quite expensive. The pom pom ear detail is too cute to have been left behind.

 I love character hats and this cutesy one had to be added to my collection!

day off, 1 of 2: I spent the first have of the morning locked in my bedroom - mum, force of habit of keeping my little sister out - I after wandered into town to meet my Mum. I also made some jam thumb prints which are swiftly dissapearing out of the tin, and cooked me and my boyfriend a lovely meal.

excuse my bedroom floor/surroundings in the middle of decorating!

tartan cwtch

I first spotted this scarf in December time, but with the vast amount of presents I was purchasing it didn't feel right spending £15 on a scarf - even though i reeeeally reeeeally liked it -

 The mix of earthy tones and the thick material reminded me of winter nights at my grandparents when I was younger wrapping up in the old holey tartan blanket. I did keep checking on it at my local Dorothy Perkins on my lunch breaks but alas the price kept me holding back.

I was creating a return for my recent Dorothy Perkins order when a wonderful equation popped into my head: sales + scarf = :) > :(

The scarf is now out of stock online, which was a great sign to me as my instant thought was it had sold out from being a mega bargain, and that it was!

I swiftly went into my local store this morning and was pleasantly surprised to see a nice big red £8 sticker on the original label, and was further more pleased when the cashier told me it was.... £5!

have you snapped up any great January sale purchases?

note to self: stop spending.
