Okay, we will admit, as budget conscious as we are at Ella Mag, all the Union Jack themed press releases/press launches have finally got to us (not to mention the fact our neighbours have – not without too much insistence – encouraged us all to hold our own Diamond Jubilee street party) and we are getting a bit of fashion envy.
After checking out eBay for some vintage All Saints boots (found some priced £20 but still deciding weather to buy), we spent some time on the interwebs salivating over some potential new gear. First on the list are these Saint Tropez skinny jeans on the Melanie Drake website and will be saving up for a pair, sadly not in time to wear for the Jubilee though.
We also saw Diane Von Furstenburg wrap dress at our local dress agency Friends. When we visited yesterday they had a vintage one in pink and one in yellow print (both sizes 10/12).
However more likely we’ll be going on to Next’s website and checking out the very reasonably priced dresses (and children’s wear) and sticking to our tried and trusted L K Bennett wedge shoes (bought in the sale six years ago for £15).
It’ll all be reduced in the summer sales soon anyway!
