Modcloth

So yesterday I was having one of “Those Days”. My fringewouldn’t sit right, I was late for School, I got the worst test results I’ve ever had back, I walked into a tree when I was talking to someone, you know – one of those days where nothing went right. But when I came home, my delivery from Modcloth had come!

 I was very excited as for years I have been window shopping on their site. But the other day I saw some stuff I liked on sale and I had more money than usual as I worked the four days after New Year’s, and I caved in.  My friend requested pictures of what I bought, and being overexcited by it, I’ve decided to do a whole blog post. They're all no longer available so I wont be able to put links. 


(The moment you’ve been waiting for… You have no Idea Modcloth)

The first thing I noticed was how adorable the box was. I mean look at it, it’s dotty! I’ve kept the box and am planning to keep something in it, maybe my crocheting yarn. 

(It has words inside)

(Tape even has their logo on it!)

So enough about the box.

(It’s so cute!)

I bought three things from Modcloth, the first was this dress.



I’m pretty late to the whole galaxy print trend and I thought that this dress was a cute mix of cute tea dresses with galaxy print.

Next of I got this novelty lama print jumper.


(it’s so weird, I love it!)

If you haven’t noticed by now, I’ve kind of got a jumper problem. I counted all the jumpers I own the other day and I have 17. To be fair, I practically live in them and I don’t have any novelty print ones, so this was a good buy.

The last thing I got was this plaid coat. 




(It defiantly doesn't go with that dress)

I only own one winter coat which I just consistently wear so I thought it would be a good idea to get a new one. It has a very early 60’s feel to it – a wee bit like the style in Call the Midwife right now – and I’m a sucker for plaid and tartan
.
The dress was $27 (£17), the jumper was $21 (£13) and the coat was $30 (£19). The postage was a killer – $33.40 (£21) – but otherwise it wasn’t too dear and expected when it’s from America

Today I'm listening to:


This is going to look bad as I'm putting up a Primark Haul post/video on Thursday. I promise I’m not a haul blog; I’m just excited by Modcloth!

    That coat is absolutely perfect! And the galaxy dress actually looks like it has lights shining on it. I did a double-take. Modcloth is so awesome!

    I have way too many sweaters too. Like a box full and it doesn't stay very cold where I live for that long. I don't think you can ever have too many though! I'm loving your galaxy print dress too. My sister actually has that one!

A Storm in a Teacup

So the other day I was out shopping with my friend when I saw this dress and got a bit over excited. It was long enough to go past my knees! Being something like 5’10, dresses that are long enough on other people are always too short on me. So many of the dresses I have, I have to wear with leggings or even skinny jeans. So the fact this dress wasn’t just long enough, but went past my knees was a novelty. It’s really pretty too, these pictures don’t show the top of it but it has a 1940’s sort of feel to it. I can’t wait until the weather warms up and I can wear it with my arms out.    The iso is a bit high in some of these pictures as the sun was setting so half of them are a bit grainy. I didn’t realise this at the time and even though I kind of like the effect, it would have been better if they all looked the same. Oh well, I will just have to remember this for next time. I also went a bit mad in Primark and I have filmed a video on what I bought, wh...

Oh I do like to be beside the seaside

I may or may not have forgotten that I was supposed to post last week, so here is the post: So when I was in Northern Ireland the weather was perfect so I got a few pictures of my outfits. This dress reminded me of Donaghadee when I bought it and it was only right that I took pictures of it there. So I managed to get down to Donaghadee; the weather was lovely and we didn’t expect it to last that long, and I was about to start taking pictures with my DSLR when I noticed that I had very cleverly left my memory card at the house. So here are my improvised-with-my-phone-while-old-ladies-were-staring-at-me outfit pictures! When I was taking the pictures I kept finding more and more things that matched my dress. It was defiantly made for Donaghadee! I’m wearing Dress from Yumi on sale in House of Frazer for £30 Cardigan from Primark tights from Primark shoes from Primark on sale for £6 Bag from Accessories on sale for £6 Today I’m listening to: ...

Raccoons and Ringlets

After we went swimming the other day, I just let my hair dry naturally. This produced what has been dubbed as my “triangle hair”. My hair usually curls tighter when I leave it, but I’ve been straightening it a lot more often and it seems to have melted my hair or something because the last couple of times it was just straight frizz. The lighting is terrible in all these pictures so if I look a little red that’s why. The jumper I'm wearing is from the men’s section. I find that guy’s jumpers are a lot warmer and the neck-line is so high, you don’t need a scarf. In Primark specifically, the men’s jumpers seem to be less itchy and wash a lot better as they don’t shrink as badly. The styles are usually very similar to the woman’s and they seem to be in more muted colours which is something I particularly like.      I'm wearing: Jumper from Primark (they are  usually  £6 but I managed to get mine at the start of summer f...
