Coral Crazy Charlie

WELL. I had planned to post my summer favourites today, but apparently my draft post decided to delete half of what I'd written. I hate technology.. even though I bet it was actually my fault and I forgot to save my draft. Anyway. That'll be up tomorrow hopefully once I've written it again tonight. *sighs in despair* 

Little rant over anyway, let's not be negative that isn't fun!

When I got paid at the end of September I had a browse on the River Island website as they had 10% off for students for a limited time. I found a couple of things that took my fancy and clicked add to basket. They arrived a couple of days ago and I'm not keeping the skirt I bought.. I don't need another skater skirt and don't want to spend money just for the sake of it when I could find something I love instead (or save it like a good girl). However! I did buy an amazing coral jumper.


(Side note. I'm starting to experiment with wearing my fringe off my face now.. getting a bit bored with the same hairstyles all the time. A bit indecisive about whether to keep it or grow it out...)

On the website it looked completely different. It was bright orange. I mean BRIGHT orange. But it was described as coral. Either way I thought I'll give it a shot and see if the colour suits me, as I need to get out of my rut of wearing navy, grey and black constantly now it's getting colder. I have to say I love this colour! It's a lot more pink/ salmon/ coral than it was on the website and I definitely prefer it to the colour in the website's picture, but still river island please sort out your photos that could be awfully misleading. 
There's a link to it right here, click away if you fancy. Is it just my eyes deceiving me or is that not orange.

I'm going to love wearing this throughout the autumn and winter to add a pop of colour. It'll be perfect to wear with jeans, skirts, with a leather jacket on top, a coat, with collars poking out at the top like I have in the photo. So many options!
 Thanks for reading and have a lovely day whatever you're up to :)

P.S. there was a lovely girl called Annie who I got talking to in the comments of my last post. If you're reading Annie, thank you so much. Your comments really made my day and spurred me on. Thanks to anyone who's read, followed or clicked +1 recently! x
