New In: Topshop Goodies

A little "haul type" blog post for you today, featuring some fairly recent Topshop purchases! So when I say fairly recent, I mean about 3-4 weeks ago : / ! I did a cheeky online order from Topshop and then last week I popped into a store and spent some of a gift card...anyway the good news is, I have lots more lovely Topshop goodies, yippee! Firstly I'll start with the order, where my main priority was to buy some jeans. For about the past 4-5 months (so basically most of winter) I've been almost constantly wearing leggings, as the one pair of jeans I own are just too baggy to tuck into boots, and make me look a bit like a farmer- hmm strange!! The plan was to return one of the two pairs of jeans I ordered once I'd decided which colour I prefered, but in the end I decided to just keep them both (typical)! The jeans I ordered are Topshop's Supersoft Leigh's which are very skinny, soft and stretchy- so my idea of a perfect jean! They have little turn ups at the bottom, and the usual jeans pockets. The burgundy colour is called wine and the moss green is the colour khaki. Both colours suit many different clothes options regarding the top half, though the wine ones look particularly great with anything grey/ black or navy/ blue and the khaki colour just look gorgeous with soft pinks! Finally, I'd just like to add that I ordered coloured jeans as opposed to regular denim blue ones because I own A LOT of blue tops, and I do often find that my outfits just look too blue! The jeans were both in a saleprice of £30 from £38, I'm unsure about the availability of the colours here, but I know that some different colours are still in stores/ online.

 

The final two things I ordered were a nail polish and some socks. I've been on the hunt for a pastel toned orangey peach varnish for a while now and when I found this one I was very happy! I'd never tried a Topshop nail polish before so was also eager to give it a road testing! I've only worn it once so far though my first impressions were very positive! They have a wide brush, which is a mahoosive upside for me, and they have quite a good wear time (about 4-5 days with a topcoat). The only downside would probably be that they are a little streaky, so depending on the shade you might need to apply 3 coats. But with gorgeous packaging and a good price of £5 for 8ml, I'll definitely be trying out some of the other lovely colours in the collection.The shade is called Peaches and Cream (how sweet!?)

 The socks I ordered are very cute and girly (reminding me of the ones I wore in primary school with little checked summer dresses). They're cornflour blue with what I can only describe as a sort of knit detail- basically some sewn/ knitted patterning, and they have a cream lace trim at the top. I think they will look really cute for spring/ summer or could be worn under ankle boots in the winter. They also have loads of other styles/ colours available so I'd advise checking out your nearest store or the site.

Finally, I went shopping not long after this order was made, and after being on the hunt for a denim shirt for a while I finally found one. Ok, so it's not denim, it's actually a chambray shirt. But I think I prefer that it's chambray as it will be cooler in summer, and overall a bit more comfortable to wear. It looks great open and worn with tops underneath, or also great done all the way up to the top with a little necklace under the collar. It wasn't super cheap  (£29) for what it is, but I had a gift card so I thought that was a good comprimise!
