High Street Love.

Today was a productive day.....I discovered that some lovely person had paid a bursary into my bank account. So, needless to say, I abused this in the best way possible......by hitting Westfield shopping centre.

Between the end of my first lecture at 12 o' clock and my second lecture at 3 I speedily hit the massive shopping centre like it had never been hit before; and after some organised thinking i concluded my most neccessary purchase would be a new bag, as my favourite Paul's Boutique bag is sadly now on it's way out, after more than a year of devoted use. So, I raided H & M for a large, black bag and was pleasantly surprised with the result; a huge black leather tote for under twenty pounds, and a "buy two, get 50% off the third item" offer enabled me to take advantage and get a black belt and a pair of thick grey tights aswell. Fantastic.

I was sadly dissapointed with Topshop today, as a particular top I was looking for was out of stock, and on top of this I specifically wanted a long gold necklace with some sort of decoration at the bottom, to go with a purple top I've bought, but no such luck.

Next stop was Bershka, another favourite high street store of mine. Again, a successful visit; as I found 3 long plain tops and a long cotton waistcoat (all very All Saints) and a long white shirt - dress for forty-five pounds. I was impressed.

So, although my developing research shows that vintage may be very "cool", I won't yet be swayed from the high street.
