Plenty of Parentheses
I'm not afraid to say it, I love hi-tops more then I love high heels. Especially these new Nike Son of Force trainers that I found on Asos for a cheeky £34 down from £57! My old faithful hi-tops have started to develop holes from too much use, so whilst I'm not throwing my old ones away just yet, I'm excited to test run this new pair.
 

I love the flashes of purple that add enough of a pop of colour to stop these trainers from looking too black. It makes them really versatile and the fact that they're so comfortable is a massive bonus. Perfect sale purchase if you ask me. All I need now is nice deep purple lipstick to match!

I think I've finally taken my organisational skills to a whole new level: I have already got half of my brother's Christmas present. And yes, it's still July.

My brother is a bit of a brands boy so when I saw the Jack Wills sale online, I figured I'd take advantage of it (very, very) early. I'm not a massive buyer of Jack Wills clothing (at my university, it appears to be the sole student divider - I don't know why!) but I've bought tops for my brother before and been very impressed: the colour's lasted and the material has kept its shape.

 
£14 down from £34 - bargain!

As it'll be winter by the time he receives this (I just need to make sure I hide it well!) I was always planning on opting for a darker colour and I preferred this design to the more simple designs Jack Wills often offers.

The full design.

Otherwise, it's been a pretty average weekend and I've spent a lot of it watching the Olympics! As the t-shirt implies - go Great Britain!

Where do you all stand on Jack Wills? And are you as obsessed with the Olympics as I am?

So I finally went shopping for the first time since I've been back home from uni and I definitely picked the right day to go - sales galore! I picked up a few nice things from New Look and Top Shop and there was a fair amount I liked in Zara and H&M too, but until I get any work under my belt, I (painfully) resisted spending too much money. Oh the woes of student life. Anyway, back to the sales..

New Look purchases.
Crop top - £3
Shorts - £7
There were loads of these shorts in the sale, in loads of colours but hardly any in my size - they were all size 6, 14 or 16! Managed to find this cheeky pink size 10 pair though so it wasn't all bad.

Top Shop purchases
Blouse - £10
Ear Cuff - £2.50
Knickers - £2
Bra - £7

Technically not sale items haha!

Anyone splurged this week(end) too? Please don't make me feel guilty!
