Je ne regrette rien

This post is classic why-you-should never-shop-when-you're-mourning. Faced with some crushing news yesterday, I honestly let my feelings get the better of me and a harmless Internet browse to cheer myself up soon turned into quite the Topshop order:

Striped tunic 1  //   Motel dress   //   WhitePepper smock dress  //   Striped tunic 2
Long boots   //   Ragged Priest cable knit  //  WhitePepper smock dress //  Leigh black jeans

Total spend justified thanks to a discount code, cash back, and x4 vouchers that I've been very kindly gifted over the last couple of months. For the time being, I am still hurting. A lot. But these things take time. Sooner or later you need to put your brave face on and face the world. And if a new dress (or five) makes this a little easier, so be it.

  3. soooo so cute! everything you picked out is super fabulous! i'm so sorry :( i hope you'll feel better soon but i know what you mean whenever i'm upset the internet shopping really gets me (in trouble lol!)

    omgosh you have a really good eye. i actually have two pairs of glasses that i alternate with but the ones in the recent blog post i mainly wear at home.. mostly because my dogs chewed the edges of them lolololol.

    anyways i hope you feel better soon!! and if anything putting on a pretty new dress and a lip color always puts a little pep in my step :)
