I had a little spree in Miss Selfridge including the above gingham earring which was part of a set and the ring below. I'm cautious to say the least with highstreet jewellery but Miss Selfridge is a lot better than most and I actually dare to buy metal rings there.
And I couldn't really argue with the prices either for a grand total of £21 I bought: a full price soft pink headband I had been eyeing up online and the most beautiful pair of earrings with little flowers, ladybirds and butterflies on which remind me of the Dior jewellery range, a £1 studded headband, and the rest was half price including the gingham earrings, gingham flower brooch and rose ring.
It was a very good day for my headband collection. My very first buy of the day was this pink one from H by Henry Holland at Debenhams. The collection has some lovely dresses in it and I was tempted by some tiedye leggings and floral trainers but then I realised that the leggings colours just didn't go with my wardrobe and I normally opt out of trainers at all possible costs.
Luckily H&M stepped in here with there floral flats. They're hardly going to last for years and years but I shall have fun in them this summer. The plaited belt is both pretty and practical.
So at this point I had barely spent anything considering the bargains at Miss Selfridge and the presence of a H&M gift card left over from my birthday, but then at the very end of the day with twenty minutes or so till closing time I got to the handbag section of John Lewis.

Why hello Longchamp. 
I think it has a preppy/nautical feel to it and within seconds I knew it was coming home with me. Ahh I get attached to things a lot sometimes, it was the same with the dress. Sometimes you just find an item and know it's right for you.

Have you seen that bag on Looklet??
Looks like a good shopping trip :) that dress is gorgeousss
Love all your new purchases! Florrie, I'd love to know how you store all your bags. I have so many handbags now, and find it so hard to store them! At the moment I just put them in my cupboard on a shelf, but I'm running out of space. And how do you store your headbands? (I think this is officially a request for a 'how to be organised, the Florrie way' post :P)
Oh my god, you look so wonderfull in that dress!!!
U look so glamourus and the new Longchamp? So cool!
I love that dress! It looks amazing on you. I think I need to wander down to H&M and buy one as well.
And that bag is wonderful! Ilove the preppy style.
I so badly want to go up to Birmingham for a shopping trip. I went to Birmingham and was so sad that I didn't get to go into the Bull Ring.
