And I will wait, I will wait for you

Now, you may have been looking at some of my recent outfit posts and be coming to the conclusion that I only own one solitary little jumper. Quite frankly, this post really isn't going to help me to convince you otherwise. I actually am quite lacking in the jumper department and am beginning to think I can't just live in this burgundy number for the whole winter (actually, I'm pretty sure I could, its so warm and snuggly) so I should probably consider finding myself an alternative... even if its just for when this jumper is taken for a spin in the washing machine

I've spent the last month or so endlessly looking for the perfect pair of vaguely smart boots. I very nearly caved in and bought some Doc Martens but there was no way I could even attempt to pass them off as 'smart'. I eventually got fed up of looking and was struggling to find a pair I felt even vaguely enthusiastic about, but then I wandered into Next with my mum so she could have a quick rifle through the sale rails a few weeks ago and stumbled across these beauties. I'm not sure they're going to be at all particularly practical for winter but for £32 I just couldn't resist.

Just had a minor heart attack that I've completely lost track of time and missed half of this week's Great British Bake Off. So on that note I'm going to leave you... the tv needs me. Now.

    1. Glad I'm not the only one who's become surgically attached to their jumpers!
      I'm not even ashamed to love Great British Bake Off, I'm camp John... he's just a little cutie (although so is James for that matter haha) x

    1. Its too cosy and lovely not to Amy, believe me! You are definitely missing out (although its the final tomorrow so probably not the best place to start with it all!) x

  8. Lovely outfit definitely something I would wear! I'm on the hunt for some Dr Martens but I'm also on a spending ban and simultaneously putting all my clothes on eBay because I keep shopping! It's such a vicious cycle!

    1. Not a loser, a very smart lady! I wish I'd thought to do that!
      The boots are perfect for me- I'm the queen of smart casual (mostly because I seem to have quite a serious aversion to looking too smart!)
