A Topshop Haul

The Little Magpie Best of Topshop New in August
Hey friends! Today's post is just a quick one as I'm in the middle of putting together two different travel guides and want to get them all spick and span and ready to go next week but I just wanted to share with you some pieces I got from Toppers recently! I always love a bit of Topshop but their 'new in' has been looking particularly sassy at the moment so I thought I'd show you some of my favourite picks. Plus it makes me feel better if I can justify my bad spending habits by saying they're for a blog post.

Oh these jeans. As soon as I spotted them I knew they were coming home with me. They're cropped, which works perfectly for me being five foot and all, and are in ginham which is one of my favourite summer prints. And red gingham no less! Oh the primary school memories. I paired them with this little top which, off, I thought was going to look horrific on me and my sizeable nungas but it's great! I think the fact it's slightly cropped helps. I cannot for the life of me find it online (boo, hiss) but keep an eye out in store if you like it as I literally just got it last week. The sandals have also been a great buy as they're so SO comfortable. I've got no time for impractical shoes these days as my Grandma feet can't handle the pace so I was over the moon to find I could wear these for an entire afternoon and evening with no pain. All hail the humble nude, comfortable sandal.

This one was a risky wee buy for me as I'm not normally a fan of a low cut number but I just loved the print and the Free People vibes too much to say no. It also comes in a burnt orange colour which is lovely! And, again, worn with my trusty sandals #sendnudes

So, three things to tell you about this outfit:

1) The trousers are the best wee purchase I've made in a long time. They're slightly cropped (great) and the most incredible fit ever, especially around the butt area (try them on, I promise they'll give you a wee peach) and also a little bit different to the usual trousers on the high street at the moment.
2) They come with a matching jacket. That's right, they're part of the most incredible suit that I guarantee will leave you feeling like a badass, Mick Jagger-ified version of yourself.
3) The boots are amazing. I stupidly didn't get a close up photo of them but you can have a wee look at them properly here. They're such an unusual colour and also have that really sassy square toe detail which I'm a big fan of!

Right ma wee pals, I'm off to finish my San Francisco guide and eat some cookies.
