Last Saturday I went shopping. On my own. I know that sounds pretty sad but it's the best way to do it. There's no point taking a boy along with you because he will moan about traipsing around the shops and I personally can't take friends with me either.

I can take my sister with me but sometimes shopping alone is the only way. You can spend as long as you want dithering over a certain top and you can revisit shops without annoying anybody else. I managed to pick up quite a few bits and because there is no one with me, I have to make decisions on clothes on my own!

The New Look Swallow Print Top was only £9.99 and the print is lovely so I just had to try it on. The sleeves are a little weird and pointy but I can definitely get over that. It's the perfect casual Summer tee!

I also picked up the Ditsy Heart Print Shirt Dress which was a little more expensive at £24.99. Luckily I had a gift card left over from Christmas so I didn't feel too guilty about this! It's certainly not my usual style as it's sleeveless, and a dress and that's something I'd normally stay well clear of.

I took the time to try it on and realised that it's actually really pretty. It's perfect for work as well as wearing casually at the weekends. I can always chuck a cardigan on over the top if it's a bit cold as well. I adore the heart print and the waistbelt and I'm so glad I chose it!

What's in your shopping bags this week?

  1. I really like the bird print top :) I agree sometimes shopping on your own is the best way, I get round the shops I want to look at much quicker when I'm on my own!

  3. I love the prints on both of these, they're so cute! I agree about shopping your own as well, it's nice to have company but it's much easier to get shopping done when you're on your own.

  9. I completely get what you mean about shopping on your own - it's fun with my friends, but I get so much more done on my own and generally I'm happier with my purchases. I adore your swallow top - it's so cute! xx

  11. Check to see if the shopping bags are fair trade or fair made. Look for reusable bags made by companies with concern for the welfare of workers.
