Boohoo Summer Is Over...

...but don't worry Winter brings amazing new clothes, shoes and accessories!

I get about 9000 emails a day from online and high-street stores about their new collections and yada yada but I always delete them! So this week I've made an effort to try and keep some just to see what's about and what the trends are (as I have little to no interest in fashion week) and suprisingly the one I've enjoyed the most is from Boohoo.com

I always thought Boohoo was a little cheap looking and some of it (and I still agree with this) is gross BUT amongst that I noticed some amazing pieces I now can't get my mind off - and it's super cheap too!

Here are my picks:

Faux-Fur Trimmed Cape

Shearling Buckle Brogue

Cord Shorts w/ Braces
I love this whole outfit and actually ordered the shorts.

Gold Lock Bag

Contrast Panel Dress.

Like I said I actually ordered the shorts but I'm stupid and ordered them to the wrong house oops!!

I'd just like to say a huge thankyou to all of those who still read and follow my blog, I know I've only be able to get on once a week recently but hopefully soon I can sort out doing every other day again :) Also if somebody could tell me why all of a sudden everybody has 'UK [insert genre] Blog' after their names then please do tell me what trick I'm missing out on!

What A/W items have been catching your eye?

    Ooh I actually love all the stuff you've shown here! Boohoo must be getting better :D
    I ordered stuff from them when I was at uni a couple of time but tended to find the materials were a little cheap and tacky and not as nice in person as they are on the website.

    That cape is amazing, I want one! I've always thought Boohoo was a bit cheap and tacky too but these bits and pieces look really nice, I'll have to have a search through the website!

    Yep, you've been UK empty blog boring. AND you bought shorts in winter, I thought better of you CBix.

    p.s I have no clue about this UK Blog thing, where have you seen it? I think it's coz UK rules, so you'd better get your background changed missy!

    I wondered about the UK ____ blog thing too, but it must be something to do with SEO. I wonder if it helps. I'd do it if I knew what i was. Not sure what sort of blogger I am, really! xxx

    Haha I noticed the UK blah blah blog thing.. I can't work out whether blogger put it in for them or if one person changed it and then a few people jumped on the bandwagon lol!! But anyway.. Your new shorts are amazing and will look awesome on you! I feel the same about Boohoo, a lot of it looks like cheap shit, but there is some gems there!

    I guess I'm like you - I subscribe and then delete, delete, delete - just after reading the title - it's like this especially with the Body Shop because they send e-mails every day. Hoenstly - OTT! I like River Island and Topshop ones - great inspirations for trying to find a cheaper look. ;) X

    I agree! Boohoo: generally awful, sometimes nice. I like the cord shorts though! Make sure you say how they turn out.
    I'm following you now! x

    I so want a cape coat, but the ones that cheat a bit hand have sleeves. I just love A/W clothes in general, knits and think tights and good fabrics.

    Agreed, boohoo used to be cheap and markety but they've got a few nice things in at the moment. I even almost bought a "2 in 1" dress from there the other day but stopped after realising it was on the border of market stall.
    Gah I don't understand the uk blog thing either, they're popping up everywhere though - I might change mine to Israel Based Cricketers blog.
