A few more sale finds!

After trawling the net in search of more bargains and coming away with an empty basket I decided it was high time I brave town as the kids have been safely back at school for a couple of weeks and so now is a great time to go and have a good old mooch on your own! By now of course everyone is doing the further markdowns so this is the time when you are more likely to get some genuine bargains too! First port of call was Gap as I got an email for a further 20% off sale prices. I went into town with a plan as I was about to order a merino v-neck in black from Uniqlo so my thinking was that if I could find something similar in Gap and it meant I wouldn't have to pay P&P for Uniqlo......well so be it! As luck would have it there was a choice of 2, either an eversoft or a merino both priced at 9.99 with 20% off lest not forget! Obviously the merino was of much better quality.....so that one will do nicely please! I took it to the till and low and behold some lovely member of staff had got a bit price gun-happy with the merino sweater! Luckily for me they honoured the £9.99 sale price and even took the 20% discount off even though it should have been £39.95!! Result....whoop-whoop! :0) 

I struck lucky again in Gap when I visited Clark's Village outlet in Street where I bagged another classic! I managed to score a lovely mac. Now I do already own a trench from Gap but it's of the belted variety and to be brutally honest I have always felt like a sack of spuds in it so it was relegated to the work wardrobe long ago. However the new mac is an a-line button though, just very simple! The second I put it on I thought about how great it would be with the new brogues! Sold! Another good deal too as it was £49.99 with 30% off taking it down to £34.99! 

Although I was trying to be strict with myself and only allow myself one purchase at the outlet centre, I did also manage snag this gem in the Whistles outlet.

Loved this when I saw it on the WIT blog a few months back, unfortunately it was sold out :0( So happy to see it sat there waiting for me.......for just £20 too! 

After my success in the shops I did go back to the on-line bargains. Hands up as I have been stealing Susie So So's style yet again! I got the Next cheetah print slip-on's a couple of weeks back and went back in for the black pony skin version as I knew they would be useful....at only £18 it would be rude not too!! There are still some sizes left in their clearance on-line.

Onto my final and favourite purchase. I have a big 40th bash in London next weekend and have been fretting for weeks about what to wear. I happened to stumble across this great little Jaeger boutique dress on ASOS. 

The dress arrived on Friday and I was so taken with it that I wore it out for dinner on Saturday night. It's jersey with a black sequin spot on it. Perfectly understated for me....think it will be brilliant for the party next weekend it was a great price at £42.

Another 5 sales purchases that I am really chuffed with. There are a couple more things on the hit list that I would like to procure, cue a lot more leg work but my spring wardrobe is already shaping up nicely!
