I made a terrible mistake the other day. Decided that one of my daughter’s Christmas presents would be a Mother/Daughter bonding session in Top Shop’s Personal Shopping area.
Don’t get me wrong, we had a really lovely time being helped by the gorgeous Honey and her trusty assistant who were both unbelievably young and trendy. They spent two hours advising us on what we should be wearing. I of course preferred all the clothes they had put out for my daughter and therefore ended up spending WAY too much money looking like a teenager:-
I am now feeling ashamed of myself for getting so carried away. Need to start taking some things back. However, it did give me an idea of what sort of things will be in this spring/summer and what I should be wearing. I now have some skinny jeans with zips (although flares on their way back apparently), a see-through shirt with gold buttons and some ankle boots with buckles that I can’t walk in AT ALL. Oh and a FAB black jacket with satin lapels like a tuxedo jacket to wear with jeans that is apparently ALL the rage….but what do I know.
Nevermind.
We even got to eat cupcakes:-
