Guess where I spent my Christmas money?
Yep: the Atterley Road sale, which is now under way. It is a good place to go bargain-hunting if you need to look smart but stylish for work, or if you are a fan of the higher-end high street brands: Hobbs, Whistles and the like.
There are nearly 300 items in the sale, with discounts of up to 75%. Prices start at £10 for a delicate suede belt from Whistles (reduced from £35) and go up to £125 for a quilted biker jacket from Jigsaw for £125 (reduced from £174).
Here’s what I plumped for: a jacket for work, and a dress for not-work:
People Tree jacket: £29 reduced from £95. Goes with skinny trousers and boots. Massive collar. Doesn’t need ironing. I love it.
Petit Bateau dress: £25 reduced from £94. I do like Petit Bateau clothes: pretty, well-made and long-lasting. I’ve realised that I’m going to have to find a pair of grey tights to go with this dress though. The dress is made from jogger bottom cotton (I’m sure there’s a proper name for that fabric, but I don’t know it), and is as comfortable as it looks. UPDATE: Sorry – it looks like that dress is now sold out, so I’m just taunting you with it. You can find the other Petit Bateau sale items here though.
Some other tasty items in the Atterley Road sale:
