Sucker for British High Street

I officially love this time of year. It's Autumn, the leaves are falling off the trees and  its the perfect excuse to start layering, wear more clothes, buy a winter coat or two and just wrap up nice and snug. At the moment I've been going a little crazy with shopping and there's just so many things that I want to buy.
I never used to buy on eBay but recently I've discovered there are some really good sellers that sell shops seconds and ex display items, for so much cheaper than retail price. Really, whats not to love?
I've yet to buy anything off them, but when I do you'll be the first to know.
I did however buy this amazing faux fur gilet off a seller just recently.

It came today in the post, I'm in love. It's from Topshop and RRP'd at £75, I won the auction at £33 which i think is a great deal. It actually looks really real which is a added bonus because faux fur can often be tacky.

I also bought a Floppy Hat. Its from American Apparel and is sold in store for £39, I won the auction at £16 which I was pretty pleased with. It should be delivered in the next few days.
I'm anticipating it's arrival as I've wanted one for ages but rarely wear hats,  so was a bit skeptical about buying one. But whenever I see people wearing them i just die inside and feel the need for one. They're so simple and chic, that I just couldn't resist any longer.


Now on to my WISHLIST.
I am loving the new Save for Later option on ASOS. I just browse through  when i'm bored and then click save for later and come back to it when I can afford it (or when ASOS do that fab 20% off Student Dsicount for a day or two, those days are definitely unavoidable). At the moment I'm dying for a new Winter Coat so I have a few of those on there, as well as some other key autumn/winter pieces.
