It was shopping day today :) I haven't been clothes shopping since agggessss.. since the last time my mum was here in fact. It was a much needed retail therapy session with my mum :) We spent a total of 5 hours at sunny bank and garden city combined - my feet are now in need of ice!
Epiphanies while i was shopping:
- To be able to look good in anything i need to lose like 10kg.
- Flat shoes with no cushion are the worst type of footwear for a shopping spree.
- I can spend up to 40mins in a changing room trying on all the clothes I selected.
- Having a credit card could be the closest thing to ecstasy for me.
- Shoes are my weakness.
- My mum is a very patient person :)
Mum and I made about 6 purchases in total. I bought a dress, a singlet and a jumper while my mum got her hands on two jumpers and a nice long sleeved top.
Here are a select few from a bunch of photos mum took of me in my purchases. Please ignore the fence and shoes :) * unedited
The blue dress is from Dotti. The sleeves are chiffon but the body of the dress has a lovely silky feel to it. Sorry i'm not at all equipped with the proper vocabulary to describe types of materials :/
What i really love about the dress is definitely the silky feel of the bottom half, but also the flowery and polk-a-dot pattern. I also don't own any dresses in this particular colour so added bonus right there :) The singlet that i bought was a maroon type colour to go as an undercoat with the dress because the top half of the dress is see through.
I also love wearing stripes so the jumper I bought from Factorie fits perfectly with my style :)
P.S If you're wondering why i'm not showing my face in these photos, its because these were taken after a 5 hour walk around shopping centres so my face was all aldskfjalsfj' and not co-operating with me
