The World's Smallest Haul

I fully embrace the concept of retail therapy and this has led to me acquiring 3 pairs of shoes in the last 3 weeks, all of which have an animal skin effect so although they're all very different styles I'm obviously on the look out for something in particular.

My latest acquisitions came from Aldo, somewhere I regularly lust after shoes, but until Sunday none have come home with me.

These are called Gwenda and were £75, down to £34.98 in the sale.  They have a whopping great heel and platform and I am 6 foot 2 inches in these shoes.  Ridiculous, I know.  Any future boyfriends will need to be very tall indeed.  I am willing to ignore all shorter mean for the sake of these shoes though :)

They're mega comfy though due to the platform and the wide straps on the front of the foot.  I seriously love them.

Do you like my Revlon Blue Lagoon toes with Models Own Juicy Jules over it?

As well as my beautiful shoes, I picked up another floaty cover up, cardigan thing.  I really like things like this at the moment, what with the weather being warm one minute and freaking freezing the next.


I love the drapey effect, perfect for when you want to be covered up but not heated up.  The huge sleeves are split along the bottom as you can see here and help create a long, lean silhouette which I always appreciate! 


I think it's seriously fab and only £15 from Primark.  They had other prints as well so I'll be going back for more.  I'm going through a phase of jeans, vest tops and something other the top but cardigans can look boring and blazers can be overly dressy so I think these fall somewhere in between.

What do you guys think?
