Too much excitement

Playsuit & shirt - Topshop // Coat - c/o SheInside // Fur wrap - New Look // Necklaces - c/o Coast

I was lucky enough to be sent a gift card to spend in Coast and, after spending more time than Rob would have liked browsing through the huge range of evening dressesdecided to go for these two beautiful necklaces. I actually used to work in Coast and, at the time, the jewellery was lovely but quite generic so it was a nice surprise to find these two vintage-y looking pieces. I've got another wedding coming up soon which I'm going to wear them to but there's also a weird element of excitement to wearing something so fancy during the day. Just me? Hopefully not. 

This coat from SheInside plus the fur wrap is my attempt to create this coat from Topshop - the coat was only about £30 and the fur wrap was £5 in the New Look sale so, for once, I've managed to save myself some pennies. At the moment the only thing I want spend the extra money on is cold medicine though as I'm absolutely loaded. One of my besties got engaged this week (nyaay!) so I think all the excitement was just too much for my immune system.

P.S Me and the iron will get acquainted soon, promise.

I didn't even realise Coast had that kind of jewelry - I expected just small little silver necklaces & bracelets! Might have to pop in

Love this whole look, the necklace is such a statement piece!

Felicity said...

I think this coat and stole ensemble is better than the Topshop one, actually. And yeah, one of my new year resolutions is to buy a freaking ironing board (I have an iron. It lives in a cupboard.)! Lovely necklaces! x
