"Style is a way to say who you are without having to speak."
- Rachel Zoe
I love shopping, but one thing I found myself doing, before I went on my three month shopping ban, is buying a lot of unnecessary items. From shoes that I like the look of, but would never wear, to dresses I'd only admire hanging in my wardrobe. But, as I said before, my mindset changed after the ban, and now I know how to limit myself to buying things I'd actually wear and more than once.
When I saw a favourite blogger of mine on Instagram wearing this blouse, I instantly fell in love. But the huge disappointment when I couldn't find it on the website led me to give up on the idea of having it. That was until I stumbled across it whilst on holiday, in Amsterdam. To my delight there it was, on the rail, waiting for me to pick it up. Ha ha... but in all honesty, I was so relieved and excited; I didn't even try it on for size, I just went straight to the till.
I decided to wear the H&M sensation (sold out online, available in store) with hot pink trousers that I picked up from Zara (old), just before my ban started. I teamed up the outfit with white barely-there heeled sandals, and a cute cross body bag from Primark (available in store), that I also picked up on my travels. I finished off the look with these cool pink earrings from H&M (sold out online, available in store) and hot pink lipstick from Mac Cosmetics, my favourite.
