Mellow Yellow





 eBay is slowly but surely destroying my bank account. I cannot stop bidding! There is so much to be had, I think I have a condition. Obsessive compulsive eBay disorder? That should definitely be a thing.

Last week I bidded on these cheerful spring sandals, costing me only 99p! Of course there were postage and packaging costs but I tried to put them to the back of my mind.

I'm having a bit of a thing for yellow at the moment, because I like to brighten up an outfit. These sandals have only been worn twice so are as good as new, and are super comfy. They go with jeans, skirts or dresses and will look perfect with my Valentine's Day outfit (post coming soon!).




Although they may look flimsy they are actually very supportive on your feet and have not given me any blisters so far. I'm not sure how old they are because they have the old Asos logo, but I am so happy with them.


 I am really looking forward to summer now, with lots planned. I am going to Croatia with my best friends, then Naples with college, then Ibiza with my boyfriend, followed by volunteering in South Africa, and finally going to a wedding in Greece! It is going to be so much fun and hopefully I will have a killer tan by the end of it. I'm going to have to plan so many summer outfits before then...

Chelsea boots!

Hello again pals

So the Chelsea boot is a major hype at the moment, flat or heeled. And I am a huge fan.

The reason I love them so much is that they go with anything: jeans, skirts, shorts, dungarees etc etc. Also, because they are wedged they are comfortable enough to wear everyday. They aren't too good to run in though...

The Vagabond Chelsea boot is of course the ultimate Chelsea boot. However, they are rather expensive  (£79.99 to be precise) for your average, lazy, never-having-any-money sort of person like me.

There is a saviour for us, which is the mini heaven called eBay! I bought this pair of Chelsea boots for £25 and they are absolutely beautiful.
I wore them to Office to compare them with Vagabonds. Vagabonds are of course of a better quality, but not significantly. The boots look exactly the same, and are equally as comfortable to wear. The Vagabonds are more weighted, but really the eBay boots are of a very good quality.

So if you are thinking of investing in a heeled Chelsea boot, get these! They are great for how much they cost, and save you a significant amount of money.

Thank me later...
