Another #qualitylasts post. This dress originally belonged to my mother-in-law who kindly passed it on to me with another gem of a dress she had from years back. I think it’s a classic! Maybe I’ll pass it on to one of my girls someday too.

Always buy the £1 orchids in the @ikeauk bargain corner, dehead the dead ones, water, and after a week - signs of new life. 😍

#fastfashion is a false economy. The clothes are cheap but they don’t last and you end up buying more in the long run. I’ve been decanting my wardrobe this week for some redecorating and it’s given me a chance to appreciate again quality pieces that have lasted the test of time which I’ll show you over the course of this week. First up my Aunt’s @barbour wax jacket, bought back in the 80s. I rewax it every year and it’s as good as new. #qualitylasts #barbour #barbourpeople

I love my new #lovemoschino handbag, thank you @wearebrandmax ❤️. #gifted #myunexpecteddiscovery #brandmax

Bagged these @golaclassics pink neon sliders in @wearebrandmax for £5 and now I’m summer ready! #myunexpecteddiscovery #prettyinpink #neon #gola #sliders

Seriously though how cute are these wooden cars by #hotwheels for toddlers, available @poundland. Would also make for a great wee gift. #foundatpoundland #iconictoys #mywisebuy 🏎

I LOVE anything from @npwgifts, these stamper sets (£1.99) are from @homebargains, where they have a vast selection of npw gifts and they are much cheaper than you’ll find them in other stores. They also make great little pressies 🎁. #mywisebuys #homebargains #nowhiring

#qualityoverquantity @canva

Morning entertainment with @coopukfood 🐰🐰🐰

Still can’t believe I found these @escadaofficial yellow trousers on the @wearebrandmax £2 rail a few weeks ago. I love this label not least because my super talented friend @niallchristophersloan is now the creative genius behind the brand. I think this is my #bestbuy ever! #WeAreBrandMax #MyUnexpectedDiscovery #DesignerLabelsforLess #MoreThanAPriceTag #shewhohokesfinds #escada #mywisebuy

I only went in for a food shop...famous last words. Then I stumbled across this jumper in the @marksandspencer 70% off sale for £5.49 and with my #sparkscard offer I got a further 10% off (women’s tops) so it came to £4.94 (originally £25). @marksandspencerfashionpr #mywisebuy #animalprint #bargainshopper #marksandspencer

We have a few celebrations on the horizontal, time to stock up on the champagne! Thankfully @ghmumm is down to £20 in @asda and if you buy a six bottle bundle you get another 25% off! That’s £15 for each bottle of champagne! #drinkaware

@grace_james_handmade nursing pads, much needed and pretty at the same time! Thanks @johannareed #supportlocalsmallbusiness #investni #gracejameshandmade #libertyfabric

Willing summer to come so my girls can wear these Nathalie Lete X H&M dresses, just £2.99 each @hm_kids 😍😍🌞🌞 #dressinggirls @nathalie_lete @hm

Some local lovelies to say “I love you” this Valentine’s Day - available from @guilttripcoffee @foxtrail.flowers @jbirdbakery. Any other suggestions peeps?! #valentinesni #shoplocal #shopni #investni

Many years ago I went to get my colours done with my Mum and my Aunt, at the time I was sceptical that this could make a difference to my wardrobe. Nevertheless, I was soon convinced of the benefits and I used to religiously carry my spring colour chart with me when shopping. I’ve got out of the way of doing that and I don’t always buy according to the chart but I have to say when I do I get more compliments on my outfits and how much the colours suit me. #springcolourpalette #colourmebeautiful

You gotta love the 5 for £5 in #clairesaccessories. £48 worth of items for £5 - socks, makeup, earrings, stocking up for the birthdays! 🥳 #mywisebuy #fiveforfive #goodvibes #choosehappy #unicornpwr #bargainbuys

Our new mirror was £4.99 from @homebargains, found a similar one for £156.99 online 😮. #mywisebuy #budgetinteriors #homebargains

I was killing time in @connswatersc this morning when I came across the @wearebrandmax - this little @dkny rucksack caught my eye for £40 as did these @alexandermcqueen for @puma trainers for £35. I only made one small purchase (£4) as I don’t really need anything right now but there are some great brands available including @moschino @juicycouture @converse @dune_london @stevemadden @calvinklein @katespadeny @underarmouruk @alessi_official @bodum to name but a few. Worth a 👀 #designeroutlet #brandsforless #myunexpecteddiscovery

New year, new scent. I normally flit between a few Jo Malone scents and Chanel Mademoiselle but thought I’d try out this @viviennewestwood eau de parfum for just £17.99 from @homebargains. The eau de parfum is stronger, lasting longer, and so far I’m liking this one! 👍🏻 What’s your scent of choice? #mywisebuy #viviennewestwood #monboudoir #homebargains
