This Term's Newbies

So only two weeks into this term of university and there is a substantial dent in my bank balance, these little beauties helped me make it.

I'm so happy with these new additions to my wardrobe as it desperately needed freshening up, just in time for some sunshine. Amongst this mini haul there are definitely some favourites emerging.

At number one is the tanned leather bag from Mango; it was a bargain in their mid-season sale at only £22.99. When it comes to picking a bag I always tend to go for neutral shades (the yellow CĂ©line luggage bag being a dreamy exception) as then it will carry me through season to season effortlessly, and this Mango find feels as if it will do just that. Sturdy, spacious and sophisticated it will be hard to pry this away from my arm for a while.

Close behind is the very simple polka dot find from Forever21. As we all know the t-shirt trend is as strong as ever with every high street store selling their own plain versions for what some could consider a wee bit too much. However, for only £7.25 I couldn't walk away from this cute, quirky tee that could possibly become a Summer staple. It just brings a little bit of happiness to plain old jeans or denim cut-offs, don't you think?

Yet to be worn but still tugging at my heart are the little shorts also from Forever21, they are just too pretty. The print is a little Erdem-esque, blurry floral colours screaming Spring/Summer whilst the monochrome waistband keeps structure so it's not too much. In my head I'm partying into the sunset with these babies on, and I can not wait ha.

Which our your favourite picks of my mini haul?
