Lucie Loves...Uh-Oh!? // Hell Bent for Leather... @Zara #AW12 A few things I just bought... oops! #happybirthdaytome

Time spent idly persuing your favourite stores… online… is dangerous! As I’ve just found out. However, it is my birthday a week today (9th September should you wish to know…) and so I decided to treat myself to some early birthday goodies.

#AW12 is going to be incredible! I’ve got a bit of a penchant for leather at the minute… faux-leather it is really, but still looks fab!

I deliberated over and over about what to add to my Zara shopping basket and then settled on the following pieces to add to my Autumn/ Winter wardrobe.

 A CUTE Leather-effect Pleated Rubberised Skirt, £39.99. A very (Carrie) Sex and the City-esq skirt but with a darker, sexier (Samantha) twist.

A stunning Embroidered Faux-leather top with peplum frill, £39.99.(They only had a Medium left and I think I need a small… Oops! Better to get one and try it on rather than not buy it and then find out it’s SOLD OUT!) The gorgeous wine-coloured H&M Peplum I tried on a few weeks ago is now going for over £100 on eBay! I seriously regret not buying it!

And finally… last but not least! I’m really into a printed trouser at the moment. My Topshop Metallic Jacquard one’s have gone down a treat! SO, I decided to buy myself a pair of these 100% Mulberry Silk Paisley Printed Trousers, £39.99. I want to wear them to death!

Can’t wait to style these pieces into AW12 outfits!
