Mustard Florals

It might be March now but things are still feeling distinctly chilly, I honestly can’t wait to be able to ditch the long sleeves and winter coats but as I have added some seriously lovely Winter dresses to my collection over the last six months I don’t mind too much that they are still required- cost per wear and all that…

Dress: Louche at Joy | Tights: Betsey Johnson | Boots: Betty London | Necklace: Wolf & Moon

After a spate of popping in to Joy and making a cheeky purchase every time I was in Bristol I haven’t actually made a purchase now since before Christmas. I’m trying to get together a few extra funds in order to update my wardrobe for Spring/Summer and judging by the new in section on the Joy website it looks like a few of those pennies will be heading their way.
How long has it been since I last sported a pair of snazzy tights? It’s been quite some time for sure. I still have my vast collection, of course, but I seem to have little cause to wear them these days- between wearing uniform for most of my shifts, and having to wear smart office type clothes for the rest of the time I just reach for something plain, or jeans when I am wearing casual clothes. I think I’ll make it a mission for the upcoming weeks to incorporate something jazzy a bit more often, I’d forgotten how much of an impact some patterned tights can add to an otherwise plain outfit.
What’s on your shopping list for the new season? Top of mine is a pair of flared jeans and then perhaps some other Seventies inspired pieces (that’s a whole other post). I have a lot of clothes from previous years that are still going strong, and I need to watch my money so I won’t be doing a lot of shopping but I’m not going to deny myself completely.
