Little bit of leopard.....
So, when you're stuck at home over Christmas with very few shops around (sorry Kinross, but you don't exactly meet my shopping needs), the internet becomes a bit of a god send.
I know I've probably mentioned this more than enough already... but i love ASOS. And, as I've also mentioned countless times, I love leopard print. So when i saw this jumper on the site, it was a match made in heaven.
A match made in heaven apart from the £40 price tag - which, in the run up to Christmas, was just a bit too steep for my wee debit card to handle. But good thing I didn't buy it, because after I had a little peek on boxing day, it had been reduced to £28. BONUS! So, with my Christmas money burning a hole in my pocket (thanks Grandma!), and my severe shopping deprivation (thanks Kinross!), a little order was placed.
At first I was a little unsure, as I'm not used to wearing things with such a high neck. But then my Mum told me I "have no boobs, therefore can pull off a high neck". Erm.... thanks.... I think. How come Mums can get away with insults disguised as compliments?!
The fur collar is detachable.... although I don't know why you would want it without it! It's actually a bit annoying, as the collar is attached with buttons, which means when you pull it over your head the buttons all get caught in your hair. I wore it during my exam on Thursday, and even though I was absolutely roasting, I didn't dare take the jumper off - I could just imagine myself getting caught in the middle of the hall fighting with a jumper around my head for a full 10 minutes.
I'm just wearing it in the pics with some black suede leggings.... i was having a 'comfy' day. But it looks good with coloured jeans, or denim shorts and pattered tights too. I also plan on dressing it up with a black skirt, sheer tights and my leopard print T-bar shoes for placement.
Although I rushed to make my order, they're still available on Asos at the moment - Jumper with Leopard collar
Primark - £12 |
These boots were another bargain from Primark at £12. I had been looking for some flat, smart-ish, black boots to wear on placement, and these fitted the bill perfectly. Quite like the equestrian vibe they've got going on....
Urban Outfitters |
This was another awesome Urban Outfitters gift from my brother. I never actually wear a watch, as I'm constantly attached to my phone, so just use that as a clock. But I've discovered how handy it actually is to just look at my wrist, rather than rummage around in my pit of a bag to check if I have time for a quick peek in Miss Selfridge before work (today i did, yay!).
Talking about work, Body Shop have got some very exciting new ranges launching soon.... watch this space!
