My Spring Accessories

Hello everyone.

Today I want to show you the accessories that I am trying to put in to outfits (when its not pouring down) for the Spring.  None of these are very new to me but I really wanted to do this post as I am sure that Spring will arrive sometime soon.  Are you there Spring?  Its me Jenny...

First... bags.....

First is the Faye Cross Body Bag (at the bottom) which is from Avon (£12 in brochure 8).  Its a very pale pink colour which is super cute.  Its on the small side but ideal for a day when you don't feel like lugging a huge bag around with you or a night out.  I like the fact that its got the long strap to wear across body so your hands are free or you can shorten the strap and make it a regular shoulder bag if you want.

Next bag is the one on the right hand side which I picked up from Per Una at Marks & Spencers about 2 years ago.  Its a peachy orange colour and I just love the big bow on the front.  It just has little handles but colour in my mind is just so beautiful and unusual that it cancels out the little handles.  It was quite expensive for me (I think about £25) but the quality is great and because I spent more I really take good care of it.

Next is my wicker bag which is on the left hand side.  I picked this up at a market in Mexico and its so pretty!  Its more structured than I would normally go for but its like nothing else I have and it carries so great memories from when I was in Mexico.  Obviously I can't give you a link to the market online but there are lots of lovely wicker bags on Ebay which I have linked here.

Next up... scarves...

I have quite a lot of scarves and last year in the Spring I had a real cull so my collection is now quite pared down.  I spent all Winter (and the last couple of months) wearing thick woollen scarves so now its slightly warmer I am going to delve back in to my scarf box and I'll be wearing these lovelies. They are all of a lightweight material and "spring- appropriate" if you know what I mean.  I'll describe them left to right.

The first scarf is from Forever 21 and I brought it last year in Austria.  It was a real impulse buy (it was by the checkout) and I am so happy that I picked it up.  I love the Aztec print in light colours and it has a bobble trim in all different colours so it has a little twist to it.

The next two were presents but I do know that the darker blue floral print is from H&M.  I love the print, I think its so springtime.  The leopard print/ tiger print scarf is gorgeous too and very pretty.  I think the colour combination is unusual.  There are plenty of leopard print scarves out there.  Have a look at these on Ebay.

The next two scarves are from Avon.  They are quite different to each other- the first is red with little heart butterflies on it.  I think I would style this in to a nautical inspired outfit and the other is a soft ombre in pinks and purples.  They have both now been discontinued :( which is a real shame but I am pleased that I snapped them up when I had the chance.  

Lastly... shoes!

These two pairs could not be more different if they tried.  I got these dark pink high heels from New Look a couple of years ago for a wedding.  They are SUPER high and I look like a giant in them but they are so cute that I don't mind.  Can you see the little ruffles on the back?  They are getting a bit grubby which is a real shame.  Its one of the downsides of satin shoes :(.  But I will wear them until they fall off!  

Then the opposite to the pink heels... my yellow Converse.  I have found a pair of these in Office reduced to £15- bargain!!  The link is here- check them out.  Mine aren't from Office- my friend Emma was having a wardrobe clear out and knows how much I love Converse all stars so she gave them to me.  Thank you Emma- you're the best!!  She gave them to me when I was having a really rubbish day and they made my week!  I think the colour is a really nice Spring colour and I've worn these already with my Shaper jeans.  (Check out yesterdays post if you don't know what Shaper jeans are- they will change your jean life!)

There are a couple more accessories that I really want to get soon- I want a couple of neon skinny belts that I can pop on to cinch in the waist and add a pop of colour and I always buy new flip flops every year as I wear them to death every summer.  I want a silver and gold pair with little rhinestones on them but I haven't seen any yet.  Probably because most people are wearing boots still!

So those are all the accessories that I'll be wearing this Spring.  What are you wearing?  Comment down below.

I hope you enjoyed this post and thanks for reading.
