Flying Saucer Challenge: Day Twenty-One

Today it's "something from your favourite brand", which in my case is AllSaints! I have also recently gotten into their sister brand, Bolongaro Trevor, as it's a bit more unusual and the prints are utterly gorgeous. I am not a brand-conscious person, but these two just deliver time and time again. So, for today's challenge I thought I'd show you my most recent AllSaints purchase:

Meet the 'Jagger' cropped cardigan. I have worn this thing constantly since buying it – it's so soft and versatile. It was steep, admittedly, but I'd been paid that day and I decided to just go for it. :) The reason I love AllSaints so much is the fact that the designers pay so much attention to detail, with their intricate prints and garment construction. I also like that most things are in neutral colours as it makes them infinitely wearable. My AllSaints pieces get the most wear out of everything in my wardrobe, and things get reduced quite significantly in the sale so I always get a bargain. I work near an AllSaints outlet as well ... It's dangerous.

As for Bolongaro Trevor, I have the Celestial dress from my "favourite print" post, and despite a slight sizing issue (I ordered an M and ended up needing an XS – when does that ever happen?) the staff were very helpful and sweet and the dress itself is incredible. It's nice to get a similar aesthetic with a bit more exclusivity. I strongly suggest that any AllSaints lover has a look!
