Lady Bug Says ... Everyone Loves A Bargain!

Hello Ladies :)
Hope you have all had a good weekend! On Sunday it was my Mum's birthday, so me and my sister decided to take her to Clarks Village for a little bit of discount shopping!
I must say I was pretty impressed with the shops there, mainly Monsoon, Whistles and Next Clearance. Seeing as I am currently abit on the poor side I only bought a few bits from Next as I had a gift card.
Next isn't a place I always think of to look for clothes, but I was seriously impressed with the clothes, and even more impressed with the prices! I thought that as it was a clearance store it would be full of past season items, so was really surprised to find gorgeous nude dresses, embellished tops, gladiator sandals, military inspired pieces and amazing heels!
I walked out with £173 worth of clothes for £19! I am sure you will be seeing these new items in the coming weeks!
Here is my outfit from today.


Heels, Primark (gift from my sister), Trousers, Next Clearance £35 reduced to £3, Grey tshirt, H&M £4, Studded cardigan, Tesco £7, Necklace, Matalan £2

Outfit total - £16

I will leave you with a photo of my favourite flower (gladiola) that is currently growing in my garden :) I am very proud to have grown something so pretty!

    Wow, I love the trousers - what a bargain.

    And you should be proud of that gladiola, it's a gorgeous specimen (and it makes me think of Morrissey, which in my little world is a good thing)

    Glad you got some great bargains. Next isn't somewhere I'd really look either but will definitely keep it in mind if I ever stumble across an outlet store. The trousers are fab. Pretty flower! x

    What a bargain and you look gorgeous! We drove past there on the way back from Glastonbury. Didn't realise it had other shops in addition to Clarks'.
    That Gladioli is incredible, even Morrissey would be impressed. xxx

    The Next clearance is always worth a look in, I got a leopard print bag a few years back for £5.00 and it retailed at something like £30.
    Those trousers are such a bargain!x

    There's a Next clearance quite close to where I live but I must admit I haven't been there for quite a while. I tend to find their stuff a bit ageing at times but it looks like you got some fab bits. Love those trousers.

    I quite like Next, only usually buy in the sales and I only usually buy things nobody else wanted. I have a fear of turning into one of the 'Next mums' at the school gates! Excellent bargain hunting x
