Bargain Hunter

As much as I love a designer purchase, my bank balance unfortunately does not fulfil these needs. It's no secret that I am a bargain hunter! I've had enough experience to know what to buy and what not to buy when it comes to sales and far too often I have fallen victim to the "but it's only a tenner!" to find that a year later it is still stuck in the back of my wardrobe with the labels on… Now I don't have rules when it comes to sale shopping but if you're a bit short on cash I always find it satisfying to buy staple pieces, things you can wear year after year that won't go out of fashion. I bought this white crochet lace dress in the Zara summer sale for just £22.99, a little more sophisticated than I'd normally choose but decided it would be perfect for my mum's birthday celebrations. Plus I absolutely loved the 'V' style back and the zipper gives it a bit more edge. I styled it with simple jewellery and my new Carvela shoes, which were a lovely treat from my mum for my graduation day earlier in July. The thought of wearing this dress on a night out fills me with the horror of spilt drinks and white lace but it's so pretty I don't think I'll be able to stop myself! It will also be perfect for my holiday at the end of this month. xo
