I only had two outfits worth photographing this week – the rest of the time, it was wellies/raincoats & tracksuit bottoms! I hope none of you saw me
First outfit is one I wore on Wednesday on a trip into Belfast to get carpets for the new house. We’d heard about an architectural salvage place up off North Street and as we were close by, we called in for a look. What an Aladdin’s cave! Definitely worth a look if you’re in the area and are a vintage or up-cycling fan. We were looking for a large knob for our front door (ooo errr missus) but they didn’t have any this visit. Here’s what I wore:
Grey Puffa Coat – Dunnes
Jeans – ℅ Replay
Navy Spotty Blouse – Boden
Cream Vest – Zara
Cross Body – Boden
Black Leather Wedge Boots – UGG™ Australia ℅ Cloggs
Then yesterday, I was on a bathroom & light fittings mission which took me all over Belfast & Lisburn. Cannot recommend BHS enough for their lighting by the way – and there’s 20% off at the moment. Here’s what I wore
Coral Wool Coat – Almost Famous
Grey Utility Trousers – Uniqlo (past season)
Grey Scarf – Zara
Denim Shirt – White Company Outlet
White Vest – Zara
Cross Body – Boden
Black Suede Ankle Boots – Ash Jalouse
While I was struggling out of BHS with a large box of lights, I spotted this burgundy fur coat in the teenage section of BHS. Loved the colour so had to try it on (in age 15-16).
It’s a gorgeous quality fur (not as shiny as the photo – I had a spotlight right above) and is on 20% off this weekend too. Well with considering if you want to tick the fur trend this season but not break the bank. Available on this link. I couldn’t justify sadly…my coat problem is well documented
Today it was our open day at school so I had a lovely morning catching up with my mum friends. Mostly, we’re all rushing on the school run and don’t have time to talk for long so it was lovely to chat properly. I’ll share the outfit tomorrow as I’ve a new handbag to show you and haven’t edited the photos yet.
Oh and before I go, I’ve found the best ‘just throw it on’ top from Next which will be perfect for nights out between now and Christmas – can’t wait to share…it’s getting its debut tonight!
Have a lovely weekend,
Ax

Lots of welly weather here this week too! I really like your second outfit, the scarf looks so cosy and the coat is such a fabulous colour.
