Lately, I've not been able to get Whistles out of my mind. There's something about the minimalism that I just cannot resist. This, in combination with the January sale, has been deadly for my bank balance.
First up, the Alexandra top, a purchase inspired by none other than Anna, from Vivianna Does Makeup. This is the perfect mix of lace and black, two of my favourite things in clothing. The fabric is heavy and good quality, whilst the lace is delicate and as pretty as you'd want it to be. At full price, this was £110, and I can absolutely see why. I grabbed mine for £42 from ASOS. Bitchface is optional.
Then, my second ever Whistles purchase, a grey and black sweatshirt. I don't have the name of the top and can't see it online, but I've seen similar tops in New Look lately. It's a good stable for the Winter, in my opinion, as it's thick but flattering. Role up the sleeves and wear with leather-effect jeans and heels for a night out, or with blue jeans in the day. Costing me £45, I think that this will see me through a few years to come.
Lastly, the Rivington Clutch. As soon as Whistles released their classic clutches with a chain, I knew I would have to get one (I just can't say no...). Although it hasn't photographed particularly well, shocker, this has a patent navy blue finish. It's big enough to fit my purse, sunglasses, lipstick and a book in, but I can't quite manage to get my water bottle to fit. Nevertheless, I'm really happy I picked this bag up as it's casual enough to be worn during the day for errand-running, but small enough that I can easily take it out at night. I grabbed mine for £45, reduced from £95.
