Hope you are well! Winter has arrived in South Africa and that means getting out the summer clothes and making way for thick coats and boots. I have done a little shopping for the new season's approach and decided I'd do a haul blog on it. Hope you enjoy!
Firstly just and update on the shoes I bought a while back on the internet that arrived 2 weeks ago. I am in love with these babies! They look chic and are super comfortable. These little ones are going to see alot of action this winter! What I really love about these shoes are the hook used to tie them. No struggling with buckles just hook and go.
While we are on the subject of shoes lets continue with the other pairs I got. I got these cute brown booties. The look great with pants or a skirt and stockings. So comfortable and affordable! I bought these at Mr Price for R120.00 (Aprox $15.00).
I bought these colourful sailor shoes from Mr Price as well. I loved the coral colour and think it will work great for winter and summer. They were on sal and I got them for a staggering R49.99! (Aprox $6.25)
I have been watching a lot of Geordie Shore lately and have been amazed at the transformation the girls undergo before the go out for a night on the town. Those fake tans and long lashes really doll them up. Now I am not brave enough (or in the right place) for a tan like that but thought I'd like to give the eyelashes a go. I got 2 different types at Edgars over the weekend. Both are from Eyelure and were R52.00 per set. (Aprx $6.50). I got the individual lashes and have tried to apply them but failed miserably. I have not tried again but will soon.
I also got the pre-glued lashes and am very keen to try these out. I just need to wait for an outing to utilise them. Can't wait.
On to jewellery! I love wearing bold statement pieces during winter when your clothes are usually darker colours and enclosing. I found these earrings and thought they'd look great during the day with brown or black (they have a gold back to the gemstones). They were R29.99 (aprox $3.80) from Mr Price. Today I decided to wear them but lost the one butterfly and now have them in my purse. Luckily a lady found my earring and brought it to me.
I also purchased this lovely piece from Mr Price for R29.99 (aprox $3.80). I love this! It is classy and jazzes up any outfit. It's not heavy and is definitely one of my favourites.
Ok so onto the most important things for winter....coats and jerseys! I bought a simple brown polo neck jersey. It looks great with anything and can be dressed up or down. I bought it from Exact for R150.00 (aprox $18.80).
And I saved my favourite for last. My mother and I went shopping the other day and she got me this gorgeous coat from Forever New. It's look is classic 60's with a modern twist. It has cape like sleeves with pockets under the sleeves.It's super warm and hits me on just the right spot for my length. It was a little on the expensive side but fully worth it! It was R1300.00 (Aprox 162.50). The outfit possibilities for this jacket are endless and bouncing around my head. Can't wait for the weather to be really cold to take it out for a spin.
That's that for now. Have a great week and keep faith it's almost weekend again!
XOXO
