Story of Mine: & Other Stories
Last night, after my boyfriend left my place... I did a little naughty online shopping!Ever since & other stories came to London and opened its first store at the Regent Street, I wanted to go and have a look. Finally in the early December (of last year) while I stayed in London I had the chance!
The decoration of the shop is very simple but all the items are so well displaced. It is very easy to browse. I was so impressed with their shoe section! I especially like the mirrors in the fitting room (see the photos to the right!) How cool is that! I didn't have enough time to check out their beauty section..what a shame! (If you have, please let me know how their beauty products are like.)
The clothes are so stylish. I tried so many of them and really loved the design. However, I was a little disappointed with the sizes. It seems even the smallest size (34) is still a bit too big/long for me..sad!!!Their accessories, shoes, handbags, and lingerie (which I have no problem with the sizes) are really what I love about & other stories. When I visited the shop I bought a ring and some lingerie, and last night I tumbled across their website and found out the sale! Couldn't resist! And here are the things I picked up...
1. Leather Ankle Boots in Silver Grey £95 £48
I am definitely ankle boots kinda girl. I have so many black ankle boots but they all have got a little bit heels. I need an easy walking everyday pair and I think this pair is perfect. The heels look quite comfortable, and they are 100% leather. I love the silvery grey colour, I think it is a great alternative to black. Hope it can add a little bit of sparkle to my winter look!
2. Embroidered soft bra £19 £10 and mesh briefs £12 £6
I have always liked soft bras with no padded cup (and & other stories have so many of them). I find them very feminine, sexy, and at the same time very comfortable. I love this dark green colour, I think it will make my skin looks great, and I also love the embroidered detail on the bra, very sexy!
3. Leather clutch in Grey £45 £23
To my surprise I don't own a clutch bag! I have been searching for one for a little while now. I was not sure if I should get a shinning and sparkly one (which seems more night time appropriate) or a simple plain one which I could use during the day as well. I chose latter, because I guess I would get more use out of it!
I am pretty happy with my choices (I just ordered them yesterday, still waiting for them to arrive, but I am excited already). What do you think? Do you like what I bought?

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!
