£6.98

That was the grand total of the new outfit I bought this afternoon. For anyone that knows me (and dear reader you will soon catch on) I adore clothing. In fact it is probably classed as obsession as I cant walk past Topshop without going inside, "just to have a look."
With my meagre student budget I really shouldnt be shopping in the land of £25 T-shirts and £40 skirts, so today I made the leap and bought an outfit from H&M. I am VERY impressed with the price of it and felt extremely smug as skipped past Topshop swinging my shopping bag. Okay so the skipping past part was a lie (I skipped inside) but back to my bargain hunting which I am sure you are on tenterhooks to read about.

My purchases today were:
One long, slighty baggy T-shirt with attractive print- £3.99
Black, lace-trimmed cycling shorts £2.99

No, it is not a foolish typing error on my part you really did just read the words cycling and shorts. Now I myself scoffed, just last week, at what could well be considered a fashion faux pas but once you get them on they actually look pretty good. This could just be the 90's child inside me wanting to bring back the t-shirt/shorts combo or perhaps the fact that for the first time in many months I have tanned legs (not real, garnier summer body) and want to show them off. Either way there is no denying that soon many of you will be wearing lace trimmed cycling shorts. If you are still not quite sure try wearing them underneath a pair of shorts Mini Mouse-esque. Topshop also have an selection but at £2.99 I would definately embrace your inner kid and pay a visit to H&M.
