burnt orange.




I was going to blog this outfit post yesterday, but it got a bit lost in the excitement of booking a trip to Paris with Ella! More on that another day...

After getting dressed yesterday, I immediately proclaimed, "this is my new favourite outift!" and I hope you can see why. The burnt orangey colours, the patterns and the fit of these trousers makes my brain happy. 

I saw these trousers in a charity shop last week, came away without buying them, and found myself thinking about them pretty much everyday. When I went back to the shop on Tuesday, I was glad to see that no one else had snapped them up, so I did! £2!

This whole outfit is a bit of a bargain really. I can't remember how much the top or jumper were, but they are from Primark and H&M so they can't have been much... these classic sandals were a bargain of £6 (reduced from £12!) at Primark, and the bag was free! Yep, this beautiful soft leather bag was free. I bought it with River Island vouchers I got at the Company Casting Call in 2011.

Anyway, enough of my waffling on, I'm about to move a bunch of my stuff over to my mum's (more on that another day too..) and hang out with my niece and the cats for a bit!

Your hair is lush this colour. And those trousers are a steal at £2, wish I could find some gems in my local charity shops, I usually find some defaced barbie annuals and cold feet boxsets.
