January Sale Haul

Hi guys!

Today I finally went Sale shopping. It's been about 1,5/2 years that I really shopped properly and I really needed more clothes. I only had 2 pants, 3 shirts and 3 dresses hanging in my closet and thanks so some financial advantages in December, I decided to spend a day in Antwerp to enjoy some well-deserved retail therapy.

I'm not a big fan of Sale, it's always so chaotic and people turn into beasts over bargains. I left at 9 in the morning so I could be ahead of the crowd, Antwerp is crazy busy on a Sale Saturday! I succeeded quite well in my shopping hunt, curious? Scroll down!

 The first store was H&M, which I love, but during sale it's so messy. Everything is piled up, clothes are shattered over the floor,... This scarf immediately caught my eye as I walked in, it's perfect for a cold autumn or winter day and it was reduced to €7!

I have only recently discovered statement necklaces and am still building my collection. They're perfect to turn a basic black T-shirt to something fancy and chic. I found these 2 at a store called "Takko fashion", which you can compare to Primark. Very cheap clothing of low quality. I normally never shop here, but as I walked past it today I just went in, you never know what you'll find! These necklaces immediately drew my attention, they're so pretty! I had been looking for the perfect necklace for a while and didn't want to buy one if I wasn't absolutely in love. These are Limited Edition and are only €10 each so instead of picking one, I bought them both :)

 

 There were 2 kinds of clothing I really needed to find: Tops and pants. I tend to just wear a shirt + blazer to work and I'm so sick of the same old outfit, so I needed other tops than a regular shirt. These 3 I found in the last store: Vero Moda/Only. Again, a brand I don't normally buy, I don't like the fit of most of their items but the BF wanted to visit Jack & Jones and since it was the same store I took a quick look. The silver glitter top I bought for a techno party that's coming up, the black top is very basic and simple (you can never go wrong with a simple black top) and the printed top looked surprisingly cute when I tried it on. The silver and black top were both €15 and the top with print €25.

 After the tops, I still needed to find some jeans, after bikinis my least favourite thing to try on in a fitting room. If it slips on easily, it's mostly too big and if you find your size, you always have to make little jumps to get it up properly. But I really, really needed some so back to H&M, their sizes are always quite wide, which makes me feel better ;) I didn't dig into the Sale jeans, I went straight to the regular jeans corner and choose 2 "Straight Regular Jeans" (I'm not a fan of skinny jeans and definitely don't have the figure for a low waist jeans), one dark one and one lighter. Both were €39,95.

 My original goal was to buy 2 pairs of boots: brown and black, but as always, I didn't find any pretty boots. I did find these cute ankle boots with golden details, perfect to pair with some jeans. They were only €26,99 at Forever 21, I can't wait to wear them! 

This coat is definitely my best sale purchase of today, I found this at River Island when I was heading out after a disappointing hunt. River Island is quite expensive in my opinion and as I saw the €35 price tag, I was quite surprised. This was the only one left and it was my size, I felt so lucky! It's a dark blue coat with golden buttons and a (faux) fur collar, it's the cutest coat ever and I'm so happy with it! :)

Bye! Xoxo
