Hello all,
This week's blog will be a bit shorter than usual. Given that it's the start of summer sales and that most retailers have their sale in full swing, I thought it would be a good idea to blog about my favourite sales this year, rather than choose a specific shop for you to visit!
I've done a bit of online and in-store shopping, window shopping and browsing in pretty much the usual high-street shops like Zara, H&M, Topshop etc.
But if you're looking for something outside of these fashion houses, you could try (among my favourites, at good prices):
✤ Joy Sale
✤Uniqlo Sale
✤American Apparel Sale
✤Espirit Sale
Enjoy!

This is a new weekly blog, dedicated to sharing and unearthing relatively unknown top (ladies) fashion steals at exceedingly low prices. Please feel free to comment, share, post suggestions and let me know if you've used this guide to purchase a top item at a top bargain!

This week's spotlight is on...Forever 21!
Started by a Korean couple in 1980s Los Angeles, Forever 21 now has a total of 7 stores in the UK and is fast expanding. Maybe it will come to a city near you soon!
Block Striped Sweater
Size: M and L in coral; S, M and L in navy
Price £14.81 (was £18.75)
A very chic jumper; the bagginess gives some attitude.
Ruffled All Purpose Dress
Price: £8.99 (£16.75)
Size: S only
Price aside, I love this because it is so versatile. During the day, smarten up with a navy or black suit jacket and some discrete silver jewellery. At cocktail hour, throw on some gem green heels. For a formal look, change those gem green heels for darker coloured shoes. Add some golden jewellery and wrap a light coloured shaw.
Also, pssst!
If you need some lingerie essentials, please look here! (Yes, its a £5 and under bra/pants sale for real!) And....race against the clock in what is known as the '21% off daily flash sale' here!
Exciting stuff.

What is it? The nearest price equivalent to Primark online, but with better quality fashion items, cuter/more chic designs and a better name that makes us feel oh-so-young!

Forever 21 30% sale - They currently have a 30% off sale which is only a prelude to the summer sale. Ok, 30% is not all that much but you can still get loads and loads of amazingly pretty stuff for under £10. I particularly adore these:
Pleated Polka Dot Shorts
Size: L only in blue; S and XS in black
Price: £8.40 (was £12.00)
The blue-lavender colour here I love, and the polka dots adds a touch of cuteness to any outfit.
