I was expecting the past week to be a bit of a downer... Christmas over, back to the normal-routine-blues kinda deal. I'm happy to say though it's been a really enjoyable week. My nearly three year old (when?! how?!) has been on great form, we had some fun stuff in the diary and I finally did a bit of sale shopping!
I grabbed a couple of things in the Zara sale. One was the Links Necklace I've had my eye on for weeks but held off buying as I knew, being quite heavy and chunky, that it'd get limited wear, but seeing it had gone into the sale was enough to push me to finally order it!
I also ordered the Text t-shirt, a baggy/ lazing around the house kind of top. I really just liked the "You had me at hello" graphics!
Finally as far as clothes go, I succumbed to a bit of a "beauty over practicality" purchase. Recently I read a post by Laura at Buy Now, Blog Later where she recommended the fashion blogger, Sincerely Jules. I immediately loved this post featuring a sequin bomber jacket and it totally brought out my inner magpie! The jacket she's wearing is still available, but I have to be realistic about when I will wear things and I'm not sure how a sequin bomber would go down at soft play, for example! So, a slightly less casual version seems the the way to go for me. Cue a bit of Google research and the following Abercrombie Leanne cardigan is now winging it's way to me. I love the "dirty" grey and that it will work dressed up or down.
I've done a bit of make-up shopping this week too, so I'll share that in my next post. Until then, hope you've had a great weekend!
