Spring has finally hit Ottawa and I am one happy gal! If you follow me on instagram you got a sneak peek of my change room pics from when I bought these super bright jeans last weekend. I love a great deal and could not believe that I scored these jeans, blouse, and heels for a grand total of 50 bucks. Ahh, I love it when that happens. Coloured denim is one of my favourite trends but considering that it is just that, a trend, I don’t want to shell out a ton of money for items like bright tangerine sunglass-requiring skinny cropped pants. On the other hand, I don’t mind investing a bit more for quality pieces, like this great leather jacket, from which I know I will be getting tons of wear! I bought this jacket two years ago on sale for $150 and it’s absolutely been worth its value.
So, my friends, I leave you with my super original shopping tip of the day: quality over quantity. (But let’s be real, who am I to judge if maybe you happen to own 30+ pairs of shoes...variety is the spice of life!)

Louboutin, oh how I wish - my favourite designer!! The only time I've even considered that big of a shoe splurge was for my wedding (but I ended up going with a beautiful and classic Jimmy Choo pair instead). Thanks for checking out my piece of the blog world all the way from Dubai!
DeleteLove the tangerine detail on the shirt!

Me too! :D Thanks for hosting the What I Wore Wednesday linkup. I am about to get on facebook and help you score that D&G purse!!
DeleteI love the tangerine pants on you! And you're right.. colored jeans are just a trend and I wouldn't even spend a whole lot on them either. Just when I can find a good deal on them. :)

DeleteLove that color! Cute fit. I think quantity AND quality is good. There are low priced pieces out there with great quality. Just have to search. New follower here.

Who is that girl Mo?
Thanks Mo! I agree, it takes some searching but love that jackpot feeling when I find an inexpensive item that is still a quality piece. I find that H&M and Jacob are the best for this! Happy to have you as my newest follower :)

DeleteThe Tangerine is so pretty, springy, sunshinie! You pulled it altogether beautifully!
ReplyDeleteThank you Andrea!! I think sunshinie might be my new favourite word
