107. Current/Elliott The Girlfriend Short

Recently, I signed myself up to shopbop.com merely so I could add things to a wishlist, and then gaze upon pretty clothes I couldn't really afford, but could maybe find similar items on the high street. I did not realise I would be alerted by email every time something I had added to my wishlist was low in stock, or when it went into the sale. But I was. Which is why I am now the owner of some cosmically coloured Current/Elliott shorts originally priced at £104, dropped to £31. Shipping and taxes took them to £45, but in my eyes, still a bargain, particularly when they are so incredibly good looking.

For reference, I am a size 10-which is a waist 28. The 28 waist had sold out, leaving 27 and 29. After reading a few reviews I went with the 27 and they are the perfect size-a 28 would have been a little large.

105. New Purchase: KG Kurt Geiger Purse

It's a thing of beauty right? Even though it pained me to empty out my old faithful H&M purse, I had lost too many coins out through a hole in the coin section, as well as the fact it would randomly come undone in my bag and empty my cards everywhere. This would cause me great embarrasment in shop queues as I scrabbled about "It's in here somewhere...!" listening to people sigh behind me. Yes, I definitely needed a replacement.

I did not realise how difficult it would be to find the perfect purse-in budget, not hideous looking and large enough to hold my passport which I carry around just in case I spontaneously decide to jet off somewhere. That's a lie. I use it for ID as I don't have a driving license.

After several months, yes, months checking shops whenever I popped in, and browsing online casually, and then one full on six hour hardcore session of shopping, I finally found THE ONE in Kurt Geiger. I finally smiled, and my boyfriend more than smiled with relief that he did not have to traipse round anymore accessories sections in a lost manner. Apart from being big enough, with enough card slots, and a seperate zip section for coins it is black, with gold hardware, just like my handbag. PERFEC'!

If you also like it very much, you can get it online for forty British pounds here. There are other colours and other materials too. Enjoy!
