High street browsing: coloured jeans!

These are totally in at the moment, everyone seems to be wearing them in some form or another. I guess it's because you can wear plain tops with them and still look bright and colourful. They show off personality and are just so cool. 
So, where are some of the best places to get them from? First, here are the ones I own:




From topshop, patterned floral. I utterly love them. They have replaced my old favourite jeans (which had a hole in the knee :( ) as my favourites!








Topshop is also great for solid colour, here are just a few of 
my favourites:


MOTO Supersoft Leigh Jean (Topshop, £40) from left: dirty rasberry, lavender, turquoise


If you want something slightly less expensive, New Look is also great for coloured/patterned jeans:

These are available for £12.99 in colours:
Purple (pictured) < to me that's more pink, but that's the name in the shop :)
Yellow
Green
Rich Purple
Purple Overdyed
Red Overdyed
Coral



So, enjoy spicing your outfits up with colour, and if you can't decide which colour brings out your personality, here's a little quiz to help:
Apparently I'm green, not too sure about that ;)

Never judge a sparkly dress before you've tried it on...

Well, I guess this blog needs some content! 


Yesterday I was with my friend in town, browsing clothes. We decided to play 'try on something we'd never EVER wear'. So we see this CRAZY SPARKLY dress in Topshop. I mean CRAZY... So, after an awkward moment wondering whether we would a) annoy and b) seem weird to the shop assistant we decided to hide in a bundle of normal clothes we were 'thinking of buying'. It was a good plan and we tried them on. WOW I actually thought the dress was pretty AMAZING (if not slightly itchy). Now I reaaalllly want it, so, see what you think:




You can find the dress here




The moral of this anecdote: Some dresses look much better on that off :)
