"You're the one that I want..."

Bonjour mes amies, hope you are all having a super weekend. I took a break from revision yesterday to look around the shops and regain some sanity. Über Mistake. My shopping ban very almost got broken at my very first pitstop at British store River Island. I luckily managed to hold on, but it was a very, very close call indeed:


Aren't they gorgeous? I particularly want the first swoonsome dress and think it may just be one of my first purchases once the ban gets lifted. I found loads of other gorgeous things to add to my ever growing list but I thought it was best to spread them over a couple of posts as I didn't want to overwhelm you guys with beauty; your server may just have crashed! 

Oooh also thanks so much for all your wonderful comments on the last post, I'm glad you all enjoyed it as much as I did and I hope I've inspired some of you to get into Old Hollywood movies.

Stay safe and chic mes chéries,
English Rose x

  15. How do you cope? I would of definitely no doubt in the world broken (well that is if my Mum was not with me.) The first dress made me freak it is so gorgeous and funnily enough those cream shorts look exactly the same as the ones I bought in another shop.

  29. love the first two pieces. and i am with you. i have only bought one pair of pants in the last month. that's it. no clothes, shoes, handbags. it's really hard, especially if you have ah-mazing shops all around you. luckily that's not a problem for me, but damn the internet!
