Lady In Red..

Hey everyone, the sun is finally peaking through those clouds! 🌞
How long will this run of sunshine last though?!🙊

Today I'm talking about a place that most of us would never usually look for anything, never mind an outfit, somewhere most of us would actually walk past- I used to do this all the time! I love shops that hold everything, from clothes to garden furniture to food! Call it a one stop shop- me being lazy just 😂 Tk-Maxx is like this, I love nothing better than having a good old nosey at all the things you can buy, and planning out my entire kitchen and bedroom while buying a pair of socks and jelly babies 😂 but nope this outfit isn't from Tk-Maxx, its from none other than The Original Factory Shop.

I had never really heard of this shop at all before until one opened up in Ballycastle around 2 years ago, and I can honestly say I think I go in every week for a good old nosey! A year ago I was in a rut and needed a blue jumper one morning and I didn't have any time to head anywhere else so my mammy actually suggested heading down and having a look and to my luck there was the exact thing I had in my mind there, and for like £12 too, so I was completely sold from then on in!

This week when I went in, I didn't plan on having a look at the clothes as I was in a rush to get something else, but spied this top as soon as I walked in the door and loved it. It's such a summer top, very boohoo chić looking! Perfect paired with a pair of denim ripped shorts for that festival look (if I had somewhere exciting to actually go haha) but for now I'm teaming it up with these cute bright red skinny super soft jeans- I don't think you could miss me in these, and surprisingly they actually go with so many things in my wardrobe already!

When I saw the price tag I was totally in shock, I knew this shop was cheap and everything, but £8? I thought it had to be labelled wrong!! And when it scanned it came up as £6, even better! 🙋🏼 As I walked to the changing room, eagled eyed Emma spots more🙈 Bright colours are perfect for summer and what's more bright than these jeans?! I wasn't that sold on these shoes when I saw them on the shelf, but super mum strikes again and made me try them on! She was right! (as usual) I loved them, and they are so so comfy! Chunky sandals are everywhere at this time of year, so when I was them for this price I mean HOW could I say no?! I really don't feel that they look cheap either, if I saw another girl wearing these I don't think I would be able to tell they were dead cheap, which is always a good thing! 👌🏻

The only downside to this shop is the sizes avavible in store. There is usually only size 18-20 left in everything I like, either I'm not quick enough to grab it when it comes in or else they only hold a few of certain sizes! Either way, this time I managed to get what I wanted- the top is a comfortable fit, I did go down a size (always a perker-upper) but I do feel its just the style of the top, dammit! 😂 The jeans are a size bigger than I usually take, but they didn't have any other sizes and I loved this outfit so I just took them, and my granny is a seamstress, so I have the privilege of her being able to take them in for me! And lastly, like most girls I know- I flicker between sizes in my shoes so I went for the bigger size in these as they are quite small fitting anyway.

So girlies, and boys (if there's any boy readers out there 🙋🏼) check out The Orginal Factory Shop for some great wee bargains this summer!
