Today I woke up much earlier than I usually do to head to the re-opening of the revamped UNIQLO UK flagship store on Oxford Street. As one of the first people in the queue UNIQLO staff handed out coffee (not so great) and croissants (super great) to us whilst we waited, once the doors opened we were greeted with a goody bag (second photo) with a free UT Sophie Henson top, two pairs of socks and a bottle of water. We then headed to the rooftop (bottom photo) of the store, or "utopia" as they called it, where could enter codes to win prizes. Unfortunately I didn't get one of the higher prizes but still appreciated the £10 off a £50 spend voucher. The majority of things I picked up instore happened to be from their new Liberty London collaboration but I also tried on some items from the Lemaire collection too, which I might go back to or wait until they are on sale.

Recently I've wanted to get some oversized jumpers, although that look will not be flattering at all on my body I wanted to give it a try. On my last shopping trip I tried to find some oversize items but couldn't really find any suitable ones, in fact the nearest I got to was the one on the left hand side of the image and that is technically a dress. I am going to layer it over some jeans and maybe play with some brighter long sleeve shirts underneath it or possibly over another long sleeve jumper with a different texture. Most of the jumpers I have are woollen but with the ~dress~ and the jumper in the middle I am going to start moving away from wool. The grey jumper is going to look great to incorporate into a more sports luxe look and being pile lined is still going to be warm and cosy like my other jumpers, which also all seem to be from UNIQLO too now that I think of it. Finally I got this t-shirt in the Salvation Army shop just off Oxford Street, which I first visited as rumour has being round the corner from the Vogue offices it is wear employees drop off their unwanted clothes. As this t-shirt is a men's XXL it is another oversize item to add to my wardrobe.
