From Polka Dots to Stripes

I was perusing through some posts a couple weeks ago and stumbled across this post by my friend Nicole, whose blog is called Ten Polka Dot Dresses. She mentioned H&M's online sale and I was instantly sucked into having a look and purchasing a few things myself!


Here's the items I purchased. I ended up getting an entire new outfit, unintentionally, which is always a plus.
Striped shirt - originally $25 down to $5
Grey shirt - originally $10 down to $5
Boyfriend Jeans - originally $40 down to $20
Sneakers - Originally $15 down to $5
A grand total of $35, which I thought was a pretty great deal!



I mentioned previously in this post how I was lusting after a pair of boyfriend jeans from J. Crew, but I'm very glad I got a pair just as cute for a much more affordable price.
I love them (and they're pretty comfortable)!


I've never had a high-top sneaker before, so these will definitely be fun to style.
(Excuse the fading henna, hehe.)


Instagram-esque shot.
The bag is from Primark.



And here's a last shot of the outfit in full!
I look sad in these, but I'm not. Promise.

Thanks to Nicole, I now have a whole new outfit for the spring!
Her blog is great for fashion advice and inspiration, and if you're into theatre or an anglophile (like myself), I think you'll really love her blog.
Her posts are always consistent and interesting to read, especially her 'Internet Find Friday' posts.
They always lead me to a compelling article or to taking another BuzzFeed quiz (cause who doesn't love those, honestly?).
All in all, she's awesome and you must check her out!

Hope you're all having a great week.
:)
