Well last Thursday the shopping trip was a success in the end, I managed to find some narrowed legged trousers, not the Dorothy Perkins ones I mentioned in a previous post however! Instead I was overcome by Zara's new season stock, on entrance to the shop I was enchanted by the new colourways and cuts being displayed.As a result of Zara holding me hostage in there store (it was my choice really!) I purchased these trousers :) at just £29.99 I was pleased with my choice... Another exciting event for Zara was the launch of there online store last week, it is clean cut and nicely set out. But it means the temptation to buy from there is even higher now as you don't even have to go in store to see what's new.
Another website that is due to launch tomorrow is H&M they will now be selling there goods online too! I enjoy a bit of late night online shopping, there's nothing quite like anticapting the arrival of your new dress or shoes. When your knock at the door (or at uni a piece of paper under the door) arrives it's great.
In Look magazine this week I was reading about women who hire designer clothes, handbags and shoes instead of paying out a lump sum on owning them! I personally think that the idea is great, you get to hire the 'must have' clothes and accesories at a fraction of the cost. The feature is entitled "We Hire All Our Designer Wardrobes" and is really worth a read if like me you will continously lust over outrageously priced items!
One of my all time favourite handbags is the Chanel 2.55 and you can hire this on the website for a month at a time for £130! (quite tempting I must admit)
Click on the picture and it will take you to the site or click here if you fancy a look www.fashionhire.co.uk
Whilst browsing on the site I came across the facilate to buy some of the bags as well, I am guessing these bags have gone out of season an
d they are selling them so they can invest in the hottest bags of the season! This is the Fendi B Bag I loved it when it was first released sometime ago and I still love it now! At £400 it's hard to resist.
The other websites where you can rent items are for a snippet of the high life:
For dresses: www.girlmeetsdress.com
For bags: www.fashionhire.co.uk (as mentioned)
Celeb looks: www.mycelebritydress.com
For shoes: www.cinderella-me.co.uk
Cinderella me website for the hiring of shoes is to die for, I am more than tempted to hire some classic black Christian Louboution shoes. It is a different system here though, you hire for a week at a time. These set you back £80 a week, but imagine the looks you would get, I think it's the red soles on these shoes that capture me! I have already
informed my father that when I get married I want to be wearing Louboutions! He said yes, and that he'll start saving haha!
I highly recommend having a look through these websites, it brightens your day to think you could afford to walk in such shoes (even if it's only for a week!)
I will try and blog again before I go off onto my work experience it starts next Monday and I'm looking forward to it. I am staying with a family friend for the week in her apartment she's a personal stylist at Selfridges so it should be good fun!!
Hope you enjoyed.
Much love x x
