You may or may not know this, but mint green is my favourite colour. Not just recently, as it has been cropping up a lot lately - but for years, probably ever since I painted my room cream with mint green details. I LOVE it.
So I've been after a blazer in this colour for months now. I've scoured shops, online and offline, and ebay. Nothing's really cut the mustard. Well, apart from a Zara one [sold out] I found on ebay for a ridiculous price. I did make an offer [three times may I add] but was rejected. So on I went with my search.
Then I looked on the New Look website, as a kind of last resort. I rarely buy things from New Look, I'm not even sure why... but I'm glad I looked on the website because I came across the mint green lux twill blazer, and for £24.99 I thought, why not? The only thing I'm not sure of is the fact that it's unlined, but I think I can live with that!
I ordered it last night, ticking the 'pick up from local store' option. So I should be getting it this weekend! I really hope I love it. I really like the lilac coloured version of this blazer, so may have to get that next month too.
Bit of a random post, I know. Needed something to take my mind off the horrible day I have had. 10 hour shift followed by parents evening...oh I love my job!
i love that blazer! might have to have a look in my local new look :)
ReplyDeleteI really like the blazer! I think it's nice because it's not one of those blazers that feel a bit stiff.. you know what I mean? It looks flimsy, and oh so Summery!x
ReplyDeleteSuch a pretty blazer, Sophie! I've been tempted to snap up something mint green and semi-tailored recently too, I just wish I wasn't so poor. Hope you've managed to relax a little after your ten-hour shift sweet (:
ReplyDeleteThat blazer is lovely! :)
