CHEAP SUMMER FINDS

It is getting hot here in Adelaide! It is about 40+ degrees (Celsius) all this week and I'm so damn glad I found these beauties. 

I bought this dress for THREE DOLLARS at Kmart! Three dollars! That's insane! Fabric is really light weight and perfect for the beach, especially as a cover up because of the pattern of the dress, it will be really hard to tell whether you have a wet chest or not from swimming. Tying around the waist is optional, which I like. A little too short in length for my liking but it's so hot, honestly right now, I don't care.

I have been searching and searching for a pair of high waisted jeans since Summer started and I ordered some online but they were too small (remind me to send it back to them soon) and every other one I found at the generic stores here (i.e. Jayjays, Factorie, Bardot, etc.) were way too short or super unflattering until I walked into Dotti yesterday, and I found these babies. Absolutely perfect length, style and colour! You will definitely be seeing me in these for the rest of the summer. Normal retail price is $49.95AUD which I find really overpriced but these were $20 off! 

Secondly, the top. It's quite simple - it's a black with white polka dot crop top that zips up from the back. Fabric is light weight, and it was only $5AUD from Factorie. Oh yeahhh

There are crazy good sales right now so I'd suggest buying your Summer essentials now! 

OUTFIT OF THE DAY // ootd

Sorry for the crappy photo, I have no floor length mirror.
Hopefully I can find a better method soon

Crop top - Dotti (RRP $60 but I bought it for $30)
Maxi skirt - Dotti (RRP $30)
Denim vest - Just Jeans (I bought it for $2 at an op shop oh yeah)
Black wedges - Rubi Shoes (RRP $40)


So it is becoming hotter this week which means I probably won't be able to wear this skirt for awhile so I decided to wear this outfit for church today. My church isn't super formal but without the vest it was a bit much, so I put on the vest to make the number a little more casual.
This is definitely one of those outfits that make you feel really good about yourself, too bad I had to take the photos in the bathroom. Sorry, I was in a rush.
