You may or may not have read my last post about my trip to The Lexicon, where I discussed the upcoming Spring/Summer trends. In that post I assured that I would share what items I purchased whilst at The Lexicon with my voucher that I was kindly gifted! So here they are...
Above is my beautiful new jumper from H&M, of course it is off-the-shoulder because obviously I am a big fan. I did in fact already own this jumper in red before purchasing, so I knew I loved the style already. It's the most beautiful pastel blue colour (the 2nd image shows the colour the best), which aptly follows the 'ice cream colours' trend, and I just couldn't resist it. I personally think it's a bargain at £19.99, and it is a relatively thick and soft fabric, so even in the cold weather it still keeps you pretty toasty (although I wouldn't recommend it in the snow). In terms of sizing, I would recommend sizing down in this. The red version I previously bought in a size S as that is my usual size, but I didn't try it on in store and when I came to wear it I realised it's pretty big. It's a more oversized style anyway, but I found the XS in this fits me so much better. This is pretty much everything I could ever want in a jumper, a definite Spring knit to get your hands on, plus it comes in lots of other lovely colours!
Next is another item from H&M, the loveliest lace/crotchet top that of course follows the sheer trend. I have popped a black cami underneath it here (purely because having your photo taken outside is freezing), but you can definitely get away with just wearing a bra or bralet underneath. Frustratingly I cannot find this top online, but as you know I did pick it up in the H&M store at The Lexicon, so if you're lucky you might find it there too. Here is an alternative option that is similar in style. I've been looking for a top just like this for ages, and my friend actually picked it out for me, and I love it. It's the perfect evening top, that'll go perfectly with jeans, trousers or a skirt. It's a great addition to my wardrobe! This top retails at £34.99, so not the cheapest but definitely worth it in my opinion. Something I purchased separate to my trip to The Lexicon, was this amazing beaded pink clutch bag from TopShop. I think it compliments the outfit perfectly by adding that bold pop of colour. This was a bargain in the TopShop sale, and is still in stock, so grab it while you can! I'd say the second picture shows the colour of the bag the best.
I hope you like the items I picked up at The Lexicon just as much as I do, I'm sure you'll see them both cropping up lots on my Instagram over the next couple months.
Also, big statement... I am going to be doing a capsule wardrobe for the month of March. Yes I know, me? It'll definitely be a big challenge, but I am excited to test myself! I'll be creating lots of content related to my capsule wardrobe on both my blog and my social channels, so keep a look out and see how I get on with this challenge!
