If I had a penny for every time my mother moaned at me for having an all-black wardrobe, I could probably afford to pay off my student loan by now. However over the last few weeks I have emigrated away from my LBD's and black ripped jeans and landed on the not-so-distant shores of... navy blue.
If there's one thing I love more than black clothes, it's a bargain. I'd been coveting this gorgeous Topshop coat ever since it hit the stores back in November but at £89 it was a tad out of my student budget. A few months later I was drawn into Topshop by the 'SALE' signs and spotted this beauty nestled amongst all the other Winter-coat rejects; I timidly looked at the price tag and jumped for joy when I realised it was only £27. So now that I had a swanky new coat, I decided that I needed a smart pair of trousers. I spotted this pin-striped cropped trousers in the Next sale for only £12; they're a beautifully soft jersey material, so I get to enjoy the comfort of basically wearing pyjamas whilst looking like I actually made an effort - it's the lazy girls dream!
Thanks for reading - did you pick up any bargains in the January sales this year?

Girl, you look amazing! And the coat is so beautiful. Isn't is amazing when you find bargains like that?

Thank you so much! I know, I rarely buy something unless it's a bargain!

Love the outfit! I hardly own anything black as I can't stand fluff and lint showing on clothes, but it is such a chic colour to wear!
