River Island Work Wear On A Budget

Posted on April 19, 2016 by Carol

I decided my work wear needed updating and I decided to stay away from Penneys for once and hit River Island but I needed to do it on a budget of €150.

So I assumed would only be able to get maybe three items so I decided to hit the sale section first and go from there.

Even though it is summer you can never go wrong with a pair of black trousers and I love the leather look waist these wore €50 now €20

Fashion, What I Wore

New Suit

Posted on February 26, 2016 by Carol

I spotted this outfit a few weeks ago on line, on Top Vintage Retro Boutique and decided to get it for work as I’m trying to find something a bit different for my office look.

The Jacket is priced at €84.95 which is expensive but the peplum detail is very flattering but I was expecting better quality.

The Skit is priced at €79.95 which again is expensive but I love the fish tail detail.

Also it comes wrapped in a very pretty box which i loved.

Now I love this Suit on, I feel very sexy (which is a word i would not use about myself at all) when I put it on to the point I can’t wear it to work and just want to wear it on a night out now if I was wearing it to work there would be a shirt on under the jacket.

I have been looking for work wear and because I work in a legal cost accountant’s I have to look smart and I have been fed up wearing the same suits every day I wanted a small bit of colour so I decided to have a look on http://www.riverisland.com and I found myself looking in there sale section and I came across two peplum blazer style’s one is silver grey and the other in a pastel green perfect for spring and I knew would be perfect with black trousers and a shirt they wore €55 now €24.
