My most favourite sale bargain!

I think it's fair to say I'm a huge sale fan. I don't think there is much in my wardrobe that I've paid full price for since I stopped working.
Got a few great bargains at New Year and wanted to share with you my favourite one.
I got this sequinned vest in M&S for just £7! It's a size 14 but I loved the colours so much and it was such a bargain, I bought with a view to wearing under a cardigan/jacket to disguise the size.
The sequins are matt rather than shiny so it's not too blingy for day-time. But I didn't have a navy cardigan to wear over it so it was off to the sales again, this time to Boden for this well-reduced wrap cardigan which is perfect with the top as it has a tie-waist to give definition. Add some skinny jeans and boots and it's a great outfit to cheer up a gloomy school run!
I was asked today about the best place to get skinny jeans. The ones I wear most often are from French Connection. I can't find the the exact pair on their site but generally, I find FC jeans are good for girls with hips. For cheap and cheerful skinnies, it's got to be H&M. I have a few pairs of these - I always need to size up in H&M but for £7.99, you can't beat them with a big stick.

Keep an eye on the blog tomorrow as I feature another glam mum. One of my newest fans, Claire, sent me some gorgeous photos tonight that I'm looking forward to sharing with you all. Have a great evening :)
