Collective Haul! | Zafira Ahmed

IMG_9584.jpg

So I shop, more often that I should so I decided to make some use out of it. Hi, hey, hello 😃 This post is going to be haul of things I've bought quite recently. I'm quite a content shopper, I kind of need to chill for a bit and stop buying so much but I can't help myself at all. I think my personal style is developing quite rapidly at the moment and I just seem to be loving clothes a lot more than usual. It might be this whole 'new year, new me' feeling going on but I love styling and putting pieces together. It's always a joy. ALSO just wanted to let you know that I've got a second Instagram account now that's devoted to fashion, it's not going to be as structured as my original Instagram, it's going to be a lot more relaxed and if you like clothes and fashion you should definitely go and follow it! I'll leave a link at the end of this post. I hope you enjoy this haul 😊

This lovely dress is from Zara! All those frills and flowers make me feel ever so girly and it's just super lovely. It's fits me so well and it looks pretty cute with my new docs. This isn't available anymore sadly but there's so much more floral stuff available now since the Spring collection is out!

This is also from Zara, I practically live there now. The thing that really drew me in to buying this was the high neck, I love a good high neck. I think they look super flattering and it makes this t-shirt look a little more formal even though it's over-sized and baggy. I don't think this is available in Zara either unfortunately.

I've been very into dresses recently and I have no idea why. I think they look super flattering and they just look really nice with my new boots. This is one of the Cow re-work dresses that I always love. It looks very 60s and has shirt-like sleeves and is quite a nice length. They have so many pretty re-worked dresses, I have a Tommy Hilfiger and Ralph Lauren one and they just look so good. Have a browse urself:

This bby is from H&M where I don't really shop as often anymore. It makes me look like I'm dressed for a funeral and I haven't been brave enough to wear it yet but you might see it appear of my second IG acc in the next few days...

This was a total impulse buy from Cow. I literally have no idea how I'm going to style or wear this but it was so pretty I couldn't not buy it. It has the prettiest sleeves and it's this lovely creamy colour. I could totally dress this up somehow and it might good as a jacket-like thing. It's always fun to experiment with new pieces of clothes!

These lovely pair of pants which does not feel right to say at all anymore because basically, this week all I've been thinking about is why people say 'a pair of pants' when pants are a singular item. So, I finally googled it and the phrase is only used because in the 16th century, pants were two pieces not one but it's really going to bother me that we still say this even though it doesn't apply. Anyway 😂, these gorgeous pants are from Miss Selfridge! They're not like full length, they reach a few inches above the ankle so they make your legs look long-ish and look cute with boots.  These aren't available anymore I don't think because I can't seem to find them online, but I've found a pair that are just as cute

These amazing pair of culottes are form Zara. I am in l o v e. I love these so much. On my second IG account, I posted an outift pic where I was wearing these, a black velvet crop top and my docs and it's now my fave outfit ever. The pants are pretty high waisted, on me anyway so you can't see your belly anymore. I think it's such a lovely switch up from your average,formal work pants. It says that they're cropped pants but they are pretty much culottes.

Lastly, my fave purchase ever, my Dr Marten Floraa boots. These are so lovely, unlike the other Dr Marten Chelsea type boots, these have more of pointed tip so I think they make my tiny feet a bit bigger and make my outfit look a bit more feminine and dressy in someways. They go with everything and anything, they're super comfortable and are so practical.

Thanks for reading!
