FINDING A DRESS THAT TICKS ALL THE RIGHT BOXES

In my last post, I told you guys how much I love trying new things, whether it's trying a new brand, new trend and so on.. So following my discovery of Gearbest, which I had previously heard of, but never knew they sold clothing, i'm back with another bargain find from their website! This gorgeous paisley dress is right up my street, and perfect for this time of year. It's thin, yet opaque, and I opted for a slightly larger size than usual, so it would be easy to layer under or over when it gets a little chillier. I've decided that i'm going to start buying more 3/4 sleeve dresses like this, because I think they're the perfect kind of dresses to wear with ankle boots during early Autumn.

Pairing blue-on-blue seemed like a pretty cool way of spicing things up, so I layered my embroidered denim jacket over the top. Because even though it's sunny, England is never really that hot. To top things off, my two black accessories were also huge bargains! My shoulder bag from Primark is an obvious Chloe dupe, and I'm pretty sure it's still in stores now for £8! Yet another dupe - These boots are pretty much the exact same tortoise shell heeled boots sold in Topshop, but obviously I didn't buy them brand new from Toppers! Being the bargain hunter I am, I found them in an Ebay shop for £20!
