I've done a bit of shopping in the last week and I wanted to share with you what I picked up. I especially went to Ally after seeing Emma's Ally wishlist post. I am always a little skeptical when I go into our local Ally because they never have half of the items that they have online. I also find that sometimes their fabrics are a little questionable. I only ended up getting three things from there (only two are pictured) because some of the things I wanted weren't in store. I also stopped into Diva on a lunch break and picked up a few things, all the items were reasonably priced.
Ally Oversized Mint Knit - $29.99 AUD
I've already worn this baby a few times and it is so comfortable. The knit is really soft and not itchy like other ones I've bought recently. I've found it actually goes with so much and I love the fact that I have more mint in my wardrobe. You can never have enough mint!
Ally Sailor Sweater - $19.99AUD
This....I have wanted a top like this forever, so when I saw it hidden in a rack I knew I had to get it. I'm usually wary of the fabrics at Ally but for such a cheap sweater the fabric is pretty decent. Although I do fear it might go a little pilly. I think this will look so cute tucked into a skirt with some brogues.
Diva Purple Crystal Pendant Necklace - $6.00 AUD
If you didn't know Diva was/is having a sale where they have reduced a lot of their jewellery to $6.00 or less. It doesn't sound that cheap but when you actually see the items they had on sale most of them were reduced from about $15 or more so it works out to be a decent discount.The chain on this necklace is so delicate and I love the contrast with the big crystal pendant. I do like the the raw crystal jewellery that is floating around at the moment. They also had this in a ring and a set of earrings but I controlled myself and just bought the necklace, even though I wanted them all.
Diva Ornamental Feather Earrings - $6.00 AUD
I'm not usually one for huge chandeliers that hang from the sides of my head but I was really attracted to these. I think it may have been the spikes between the feathers that tones down the femininity of these. I also love the big circle with the flowers on them and I don't really own anything like these. I can't even picture what I'm going to pair these with but they're so pretty to look at.
So that's most of what I got, I did get a couple more things but my camera went crazy when I was trying to take photos of them.
What have you hauled recently?
