These boots have been a staple in my wardrobe since my boyfriend stole my other favourite boots.  I literally have no shoes that aren't boots or heels.  Although i did buy some amazing sandals from Primark the other day, but i just feel a bit too 'British' when i get my sandals on the minute the sun starts to shine.  I got this dress at a car boot the other week and i love it although the fit isn't great on me.  But the print is so cute.  I really need to start using a different bag as i get into a rut and can't be arsed taking all my crap out of my bag so i just end up using the same one for agessssss.  I do own other bags but i just need to remember that i do!

So this outfit was actually what i wore last Saturday but i just haven't gotten round to blogging it yet as i've been busy seeing my boyfriend and working loads.  We went to a car boot in Chorlton and got some cute pictures for our new house!  I literally cannot wait to move and have a garden and make my room all pretty!  I love this outfit as it's got such an easy, summer, casual vibe going on.  Unfortunately my boyfriend has now stolen these boots off me - they are literally my fave so hopefully i will get them back soon.  Not that i can complain as half of my wardrobe consists of old band tees i've stolen from him.

So yesterday the sun was shining and me and Lucie wanted to get out of the flat so we drove to a park nearby and sat on the grass with our picnic.  We ran popped into Tesco on the way to grab some bread, cheese and cold meats - the best meals are thrown together!  In our summery outfits we soon realised that it wasn't actually very hot, but we're British and bearing your legs the minute the sun pops out is what we do best.  Luckily i'm off on holiday in a couple of weeks so i will be guaranteed some sun this summer.

Me and Lucie went to view a house today and fingers crossed it will be ours in a month!!!  We love our city centre apartment but after closing the shop it makes more sense for us to be somewhere different with more space and somewhere to park the car.  Plus it has a garden too and i want a dog!  Just snapped a few photos on the way to the car.  Nothing amazing - if you read my last post you will understand why my style isn't up to scratch at the minute!  But the coat makes up for my sloppy outfit choice.  I borrowed it from Lucie although i have a similar one but it is a little too big and looks boxy on me :(  So i'm still on the hunt for the perfect 70s afghan coat!

Me and Lucie needed to get out of the house today so decided to go wander round charity shops for a bit.  Since closing our shop and working from home i have got into a pyjama rut - it's too cold and uncomfortable being at home in proper clothes!  So i have been a bit out of touch with my wardrobe and my style is now a bit 'mehhh'.  So today was just a simple outfit as i had no idea what to wear plus the weather isn't helping either.  Do i dress to be warm or is it ok outside?  Today it was pretty damn humid so jeans were not a plan.  But seriously Britain, where is our summer?  Or even our spring?!

I haven't blogged is soooooooo long! I apologise - have been crazy busy as thriftette has had some BIG changes recently which will be announced soon.  So just been sorting all of that out and throwing myself into our new routine.  Exciting!  Anyway, the sun was actually out today - yay!  Can you believe it's taken till May to become bearable to wear shorts minus the tights?!  Today was the first outing for these shorts.  I got them off ebay months ago and i love the neon paisley pattern.  Brightens up even my trusty Iron Maiden tee.  I don't know why i look so pissed off in these photos as today was a really great day so please ignore my sombre face.  I will be back soon and more regularly from now on i promise <3

So right now i want to be at coachillin' at Coachella!  I wish i could afford to get over there sometime!  Plus, i heard Leo DiCaprio was there - a girl can dream!  Unfortunately, i'm stuck in gloomy Manchester with the rain and suprisingly warm(er) weather.  The croissant i'm currently eating will most probably be the highlight of my day.  Anyway, enough moaning.  How amazing is this crochet top from Primark?! I love it - it's got really long sleeves too which i adore.  Teamed with my fedora and heavily frayed shorts it makes the perfect outfit.  I will definately be bringing this outfit back for summer, minus the thick black tights - eurghh!  Here's to hoping for a good summer!
