Soo suckered into et another ASOS sale, grabbed this dress I’d been eyeing off for the bargainous price of $32 (or close to)
This print is horses on a carousel
Which vaguely reminded me of one of my favourite Florence Broadhurst prints
Yeh nothing alike but hey it’s horses!

I enjoy seeing what other people buy, so feel free to link to any fashion related purchases/blog posts in the comments below. I’m kind of over makeup at the moment so that’s the reason for my shift in topics lately - just so you know ;)
I pinched this from Selina and she pinched it from somewhere, it’s meant to be a 30 day type thing but I might stretch mine over 30 weeks instead. I use the term “Fashiony” because it’s a word my miss 4 has made up for when she considers something to be in fashion and on trend, I think it sounds cute :)
Week 1. Your Closet
This is where I store some of my clothes, makeup, skincare and jewellery. In hindsight I probably should have taken darling hubby’s side as it has a built in shoe rack and more space mmm…
