Lace shirt & Pinnafore


Pinnafore | G21 at Asda   Lace Shirt | G21 at Asda   Glasses | Rayban.

Okay so I thought I would share with you my latest bargain as I think you will be impressed, as a lot of people were when they saw me in this outfit, especially when they found out where it was from & the price. (that sounded much more bigheaded than it should have done - what I mean is that people liked my clothes ha ha!) 
So I for one have loved the recent trend of pinnafores and dunagrees which has been pretty much everywhere. I did want some shorts dungarees but I'm not 100% with my thighs so I feel more comfortable in skirts haha! I was after a pinnafore and I had my eye on one in River Island but I never got around to actually buying one as I seem to spend all my money at the pub recently! (shocking I know) But I was in asda with my mum last week and I thought oooh why dont I have a look at the bargains. And I was actually shocked at how nice some of the things were! I think they must have a new clothing line out - as the brand of the items I picked up was called G21 and I'm sure I haven't bought anything labelled that in the past but I could be wrong. I was just routing through the sale rack, which is extremely common for me I will say I am an avid sale rack searcher. And despite for the most part having to avoid blouses which would only be suited for my grandma, I came across this fabulous pinnafore. 
It's black which is the colour I tend to wear most anyway - but my fave thing about it has to be the buttons on the back. They are big white buttons which really contrast the black; and obviously black and white has been literally everywhere with the monochrome trend. The straps can be made longer or shorter, but as I am a bit of a shortarse anyway, I have it in the shortest button hole and it is still slightly long haha! I then decided I needed a white blouse to go underneath, I was looking for something chiffon but then I came across this lace collared shirt which I loved. It wasn't in the sale but it was cheap enough. I have also just booked a holiday to Ibiza so this will be good to shove on with my new denim shorts which I am sure will make an appearance in a post sooner or later (hopefully when my thighs are slightly more toned) I am more than excited for Ibiza though and you should all start suggesting outfit ideas for Zoo Project for me - as you have to dress as an animal and party in an Abandoned Zoo. So cool! 
But anyway, I always seem to go off topic haha! I thought the two items worked well, and I wore this just for a trip to Nandos for my friend Jacks birthday, teamed with River Island studded cowboy boots. The pinnafore was reduced to £9 from £16, and the shirt was £10 so I think my bargain hunting is fab. 
What do you think for this outfit?
