Hello, how is the weekend going for everyone? Yesterday was a washout here with both awful weather and illness; not quite how I envisaged spending my day off, but at least I caught up with some sleep.
Despite being ill I still managed to fit in some retail therapy as Mum and I ventured along to Ethel Austin in search of bargains in their closing down super sale. We spent £14 and got 2 pairs of PJs, undies/tights, flats (mine) and a pair of boots (hers) with an original value of £56 total! Madness.
I’m feeling much better today and the weather also seems to be back to how it should be with sunshine and blue skies.
Today’s outfit consists of florals, nude and shoulder pads. An odd sounding combination?
And these would be my new flats. So comfy and costing the grand sum of £2
I’ve got Dad home again next week so I’m not sure what the outfit post situation will be..never say never though.
Any exciting plans for the upcoming 7 days? It is looking to be (yet another) quiet week here, but who knows!
Such a great outfit. I like your skirt.
Oohh…loving your flats…and the florals. I’ve got on my new floral tights today.
It’s kind of overcast here in London unfortunately…but hoping for it to get better.
Hope you are feeling better. xx:)
Aww hun, soory you’ve been unwell. Good job on the retail therapy. The best medicine surely?
Lovely outfit, would love those shoes.
I’m on hols this week and have a friends wedding in Ireland next weekend :).
Will look forward to you inventive posts while your Dads around.
Hope you’re feeling better.

Gorgeous top!
with your body you can wear whatever you want, I’m a bit (friendly) jealous!
Love the outift, and awesome bargains too! You have to take advantage of closing down sales, they can be better than charity shopping!
Oh I hope you’re feeling brighter now. Sucks being ill.
EEEK! Those shoes were £2?! Wow. And that skirt is super cute. Your whole outfit is gorgeous!
Have a fab week xoxo
ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh such a cute outfit!
i know, how awful was theweather right?! yesterday i just had a lazy day with my friends and we had marmite sandwiches….i thought of you!
lots of love

Yep I think a depression was passing over the UK yesterday.£2 for those shoes?… good find!
Ohhh lovely outfit !
No one wears colored tights as well as you <3
Gorgeous girl, I have missed your outfits! And this one is killer…you can never go wrong with gorgeous exaggerated shoulders me thinks.
Love super sales too…how awesome do you feel as you walk out? 🙂
Hope all is well, and that the weather there gets better!
bargain shoes for £2 and you say you want to come shopping with me, looks like you’re doing pretty well on your own miss. Lovely skirt 😉
No major plans for the next 7 days, home from mum’s tomorrow after a quick scout round the charity shops and then more prep for moving.
I think you could do a shoes post next week…then a dress post..a skirt on etc showing your fave pieces and a story of each?
Lots of love xx
I love this outfit and the sleeves are just so very pretty!

Interesting combo but it really works!
Cute outfit, must go to Ethel Austin soon so many great bargins!
A perfect combination is more like it – absolutely adore your style today, Laura! And your shoes are fabulous!
Happy, Happy Sunday, my love!! 🙂
I love the skirt!
Love this outfit – your skirt is so pretty 🙂
Great new shoes – £2 – crazy! Our Ethel Austin shut down a few weeks ago now, & I was a bit late for the decent sale, as half the shop was empty by the time I checked it out – very disappointing!

I had a busy weekend…not odd at all,it looks great!
i really really love huge big shoulders right now. And i love yours. Pretty skirt. Of course you’re the queen of floral. I love your collection. The flats looks comfy. Am gonna resurrect all my flats now, It’s summer after all.

£2??!! That’s amazing, and they’re perfect! Beats our bargains @ Kate Kanzier ; )
I love your outfit: florals, nude & shoulder pads = perfect, in my book.
Glad you’re feeling better – I’ve had something, too, for days.. kind of a mild fever & sore throat, comes & goes.. might be gone, who knows. & please don’t feel guilty AT ALL – have barely been home & you know I’m not like that. Write if/when you have time & feel like it and feel better Laura! xox
Amazing top! Looks nice 😉
Cute skirt !
Such pretty shoes! Hope the sunshine’s made you better today. You look beautiful.

I think that neutrals, florals and shoulder pads are a perfect combination and you styled this outfit very well. I LOVE your new flats. They are just perfect and I cannot believe the price.
I love your flats, I’ve been looking for studded flats myself! yours is such a bargain!!
And I think nudes, floral and shoulder pads never looked lovelier on you! Retail therapy is the best medicine:)

I´m obsessed now with floral skirts, I guess I will do a post about it soon ñ_ñ
Saludos,
Clau!
Great outfit and great deals! My upcoming week is super busy since I will be covering Alberta Fashion Week (Alberta is the province where I live). Plus the only night it’s not on is Monday, when I have my design class. I will be a busy beaver!
I’m really loving your nude top and huge shoulders! Really cute

Oh the shoulder pads are awesome! Sounds like you scored such great deals girl 🙂
I didn’t understand the term ‘washout’ and thought the artist called ‘Washed Out’ did a performance in your city.

your top is gorgeous! i’m in love with power shoulders so much! happy, that you feel better 🙂 and my new plan is not to plan anything!
Those shoes! So cute.
You look so sweet, love that strong shouldered top! Feel better.
£2 shoes?? I’m quite sure you should be winning some kind of bargain-hunting award!
I love the whole outfit! adorable really! and those cute flats? can’t believe how cheap they were!

i love that skirt, jealous that you got those flats for so cheap!
The outfit combination doesn’t seem odd at all. The shoulder pads puff sleeves and floral skirt all fit together well. The retro look seems to be popular but there is great variety in styles and colour this spring. Those flats are cute and look very comfortable.
Oh, it seems like it’s bead for everyone’s health 🙁 but i’m glad you’re feeling better now! congrats on the bargain!! Great flats and your outfit is adorable. love that pink**
lovely outfit, my dear. Those flats are so cute and such a bargain too!
The whole outfit looks nice and goes well together. I like the puffy sleeves, floral skirt, and love the flats. They’re pretty and look very comfortable.
Loving the puffed sleeves darling!
Feel better soon & stay fabulousss…

Great colors and combination…
You always find the cutest skirts. And those shoes are adorable!
I love your new flats!
I suppose our weather might be warmer, but you get to play with tights and lots of layers.. kinda jealous when i see your awesome outfit! 🙂
i love the soft romance going on here, and those shoulders are amazing on your small ballerina frame, are you a ballerina??
cute flats!
cute shoes!
