Yours skirt is now my skirt!

Really quick confession post… 
I was up in the Midlands house hunting with my boyfriend and we have decided on a totally new area to live in so the house search has to start from scratch…. I have been saving for a while now and decided to get involved in the #shopmywardrobeforlent and not buy any new clothes. Since we have chosen a new area to live in we have pushed our moving date back by Approx. 4 weeks (which means more time to save) So I decided to treat myself and buy a couple of items of clothing
(#brokemyspendingban) lol
Saw this lovely skirt in the Yours Derby store and had to try it on!
I dont have very many maxi skirts but I fell in love with this one, Cant wait to wear it properly, probably with a vest top, converse and a denim jacket <3
I love the thick elastic waistband, It reminds me a lot of the waistband on the Scarlett and Jo Floral prom dress that everyone has been drooling over recently.
Closer look at the waistband.
(This is a size 18 top from Primark that I picked up and will talk about in a later post, I have tucked it up so you can see the skirts waitband)
Broke the spending ban quite badly…. but guess what,,,, I dont feel any guilt at all, I am very happy with everything I bought.
Stay tuned this week to see what else was in those bags!!!!!!

Pretty in Purple – 99p Dress Challenge

99p Dress Challenge – Pretty in Purple.
I have to admit when I first say this dress on the website I wasn’t really a fan. It looked far too grown up and I didn’t plan on buying it.
Out of the five 99p dresses the navy polka dot is my favourite by far so that’s the one I bought.
I couldn’t quite resist the fact that the dresses were 99p so I got my sister to place an order too so I could get this one also.
I like this dress so much better on than I did when it was pictured on the site.
I absolutely love the fit and how ladylike it makes me feel. I’m not sure what occasion I will find to wear this dress but I styled it specifically for this challenge and im so glad I did because I love how it looks and will definitely be wearing it this way when I get the chance to wear it.
For all you lovely ladies who p-refer not to have your arms on show, I put on a black shrug that I got from a little shop in America, and it works really well with the dress.
Have to say I really like this dress now
 I paired this dress with a pair of leopard print heels I got from Torrid. I wanted to stay clear of simple black shoes and bag etc as I am hoping I have styled the dress differently to the other ladies taking part in the challenge.
My Shoes are from Torrid I pick up while in Florida
New look clutch I got for £1 at the plus London market evening.
I’m looking forward to seeing how all the other ladies styled their dresses…
