BOOTS AND BAG

Boots | Topshop Chelsea Boots  Bag | Topshop Croc Shopper Bag 

I'm trying to be a little more careful with shopping and spending money at the moment after getting myself deep into an overdraft BUT saying that I'm all for staple pieces, if I see something that I think I would use day in day out then I think it's often worth the money. Clothes I often buy and forget all about but shoes are bags I often stick with so I'd like to think I'm "investing" rather then just shopping....

I've seen a few "the perfect bag", "the perfect boots" posts recently as well so I thought I'd do a post on mine. Last year around this time I lived in my Topshop Alegra Boots, Although I still wear them most days I thought it was about time I invested in some flat shoes, it makes such a nice change to have a smart pair of boots that I don't feel a bit OTT in the day in, plus my feet haven't been so close to the ground since I was about 14.

As for the perfect bag, oh my god this is it! I posted it in my wishlist recently and when Topshop made their student discount 20% I instantly went on a mission after it, I debated in the shop for ages as it was still a lot of money but it was the very last one and the last day of the discount so it was a bit of a 'now or never' moment and of course the fact its the most beautiful thing I have ever seen made the decision that little bit easier.
