What makes a perfect Saturday?

This weekend, it was charity shopping in Hove. I had one of those lovely days to myself. Wandering around the cobbled streets, poking in and out of shops that took my fancy. Treating myself to a hot chocolate decorated with whipped cream and maltesers and accompanied by a very large slice of lemon drizzle cake.

I bought quite a few bits and bobs this weekend, but here are some of my favourites I wanted to share with you.

These heart shaped shoes - aren't they the cutest? I'm trying to wear heels more and at £4.99 I was very happy to take them home with me.

These hilarious flamingo print running shorts. As you know I've recently taken up running, and just before I bought them I was saying to a friend I felt really self-conscious in shorts and then I go and buy these! £3 and the priceless looks on the people who get to witness me wearing them.

This cute little bag. This wasn't from a charity shop - but was in the sale and for £4.49 it was charity shop prices! This bag is completely not me - but that's why I love it so much I think. It's different.

  1. I need those shoes! I wish I could get shoes from charity shops but I have huge feet and strangely wide feet so they are hard to come by.

  8. I have to say I LOVE all these - the shoes are perfect, just high enough but not stupidly so. And I love those days, especially as Hove is one of my favourite areas. I keep seeing your posts periodically from Twitter but am following now x

  9. Thanks Lakota! Hove really is great isn't it? I love a good charity shop - my problem at the moment is I've been going to lots of car boots so I'm used to car boot prices! Hehe. Thanks for following my blog!
