A weekend of Shopping


(1) Faith Razime £55.00


These are my old favourites I live in these boots all year round and these are my THIRD pair of them! My mother chucked my old ones out as she said they were too worn. I walk ALOT so I need to reeheal them more. They were discounted from £85.00 so was a good buy.


(3) Coral Cardigan Topshop £35.00

Coral is my favourite colour and this cardigan was lurking in the back rail of topshop. Its 100% cotton and both topshop girlies wear wearing it in an off white and a lilac colour. Perfect for the candy colours which are coming in for spring.This looks brilliant over my MW Cream Dress, worn with the liberty print dress and layered. With the MW leather jacket and the parrot scarf with orange in it.Really pleased with this buy as its quality and a really great colour from Topshop.


(4) Zara Shirts for my mum £39.00
I adore Zara for work shirts there cut so well and they last for ages. I picked up 2 shirts for my mum for £20.00 each and she loves them. So I will be getting her more bits and bobs from there.

I had a mooch in French Connection and tried on this Wimbledon Dress priced at  £75.00


It fitted like a glove and is soo pretty Hopefully French connection will be doing a discount day soon with Grazia so I can get it a little bit cheaper. I can normally sense the best sellers from collections. I think this will be one but I dont think it will sell out before there will be a discount day though.

French Connection Coat Im a Happy Bunny

My darling brother bought the coat on my behalf  yesterday afternoon after priced at £75.00. I sent an email to French Connection  online customer service yesterday evening who replied for me to get into contact with French Connection Retail customer services.Which I did this morning within 2 hours I recieved a reply.

Which stated that the two arms of French Conneciton were seperate (despite sharing the same name) and the buyers for each arm set the prices differently resulting in two different prices for the coat. Any refund or recompensation  would be at the managers discretion. The customer represntative spoke to Nottingham Store Manager on my behalf today and they agreed to refund me the £30.00 difference of the coat

Kate Moss Dress has arrived!

Im an impatient bunny and I had sent the seller an email about the dress and I recieved a knock on the door and the parcel was here:
The packaging had some gorgous belgium stamps on them and was wrapped so beautifully with a handwritten French Note.. So amazing. Opening the package was a delight and then the dress itself was perfect. I was concearned that the fit may be a little bit too big but it was perfect.
It looks amazing with a black jacket ala Kate Moss and with my cream patent courts. Cant wait to wear this when summer finally returns.

Im on a mission..

I decided I HAVE to have this  coat its perfect for my petite frame.There is an option of buying from Ebay but the seller looks a bit dogy imo. So next I went on the store locator and rang round trying to find out which stores had the coat in and I managed to find one! infact they had 4 coats left in a Size 6/8/10.

The girl who I spoke to was super helpful and I explained to her that I didnt want to look like big bird but I wanted something that would be warm and cosy and she recommended to go one size down then your usual.

The only downside is the coat is priced at  £75.00 not the £45.00 I thought I would be plaining.

I am planning to write an email to customer services Firstly explaing the fact I was dissapointed that no one contacted me to tell me the order was cancelled and that I had found the the coat in store at the higher price and as a goodwill gesture I would like them to refund the difference of the price

The body shop sent me some nice freebies when I complainted about a mistake which was made in store so I hope French Connection Follow suit.I will not get my hands on the coat for another two weeks so I wount be getting any wear of it this side of winter. But It will be amazing to bring out for next winter

Heres some pics of it on Ebay both coats are size 10s and look HUGE so a size 6 will be perfect I think.

French Connection Really not Impressed

I rang up French Connection to get an update on the coat to find out that the otder has been cancelled I am ever so slightly pissed off! Because I havent recieved an email stating the order was canceller. The reason they gave was that the fact the website hadnt been updated and was showing stock present which was in fact not there!

I love French Connection Clothes but this is the second time in so many months ive had a sh*t service from them... The first time was the bad lashes jumper I bought was damaged and they initially failed to give me money off and then cancelling the order and not bothering to notify me. Not Impressed.

The Warmest Coat in the World..

I adore French Connection and normally get a few pieces in the season. I have been revisiting their sale to find prices still really high well too high! I then religiously check back the next day to see that overnight prices have been slashed but all the stuff I had my eye on were all sold out or still too expensive. The bigfoot coat being £75.00 which is still on the pricy side for me.

I had a mooch on the website and I couldnt believe there were some Big Foot coats, in black , in a small size and wait for  it...priced at £45 from £150!I ordered it on Tuesday Evening and by Wednesday Morning they were of course all sold out. Today (Thursday) looking at the website the price has gone back up to £75.00 with only size 12 in beige available!
This Big Foot Coat was an instant best seller  They have been selling on Ebay like hot cakes after being seen in Grazia this is the perfect coat
