Giggles with my baby sister who is not such a baby anymore, on a sunny but cold Saturday afternoon, feeling very This is England. I've been living in this oversized cream coat I picked up in a charity shop or 'special shop' as we call them in my family, over the Christmas holidays. I paid a shocking £7.50, which is such a bargain considering the quality and beautiful gold buttons. I'll also be living in my Docs seeing as winter is in full effect here in London. I really need to up my layering game as my main aim in winter is just to say warm - fashion flies out the window!

This post is mainly just to show off my amazing bargain of a coat. This January sales I promised myself I wouldn't spend much, and apart from a tiny slip up in Topshop, I kept to it! I needed a winter coat and I found this one on a charity shop scout in Southampton just after Christmas. I also managed to get a velvet top and a playsuit (£2 and £4 respectively) but this coat was the prize and for less than a tenner! It's a size 14 but I think it looks better a little oversized anyway and I love the buttons, they remind me of the kind of coat my dad has been wearing for years on end. The peach colour is a bit more wearable than all the candy pink coats that are out at the moment and it's pure wool so nice and warm.
