Why I Love Winners

If you know me at all, you will also know how much I love the store Winners. People love to debate me on the subject of this incredible store, but all I have to do is name some of my most cherished items that I got there and they will back down immediately. 


Here are my top 10 favourite Winners purchases that are still active in my wardrobe: 


1. Purple suede Michael Kors chunky-heeled platforms
2. Anne Klein peep-toe red shoes with big bows on the top of the toes
3. Matt & Nat yellow fold-over clutch
4. Matt & Nat red hobo bag 
5. DKNY black skinny jeans
6.  Red Betsey Johnson boat bag
7. Calvin Klein twisted skinny jeans
8. Black, round-toe Steve Madden mary-jane pumps
9. Belted fushia trench coat with zebra lining
10. OPI Nail Envy


All of these items I got for AMAZING prices that you would never see in any other store, plus I had to change this list about 4 times already because I keep thinking of other items that I've gotten there! Just today I got three tops for working out in, two cost $16.99 and the other was $19.99. The lower priced ones were Nike and Calvin Klein, the higher-priced one was a lesser-known brand. Unreal!

Feature Designer: Kurt Geiger

Kurt Geiger is one of my favourite brand of shoes to admire from afar. At the moment they are only sold in the UK, Paris,  Milan, and Dubai, and are only shipped within the UK, to Geurnsey, Ireland, and Jersey. The first pair to get me hooked were the Elanoirs (as seen below) but in orange. They are just spectacular, but aren't available in that colour at the moment. Take a look, I think you will be impressed! 


Echinacea - £160
Minnie - £75
Garda - £190
Elanoir - £140
