Navajo Aztec scarf

Hi guys,

I hope you all have been well. Today I am posting some pictures of this simple outfit I had chosen for cocktails with a friend, something really simple and easy for an afternoon girlie chat.

Anyways, I was telling you guys on my previous post about this scarf, from Primark. I first saw it on a colleague at work, she had it in a different colour and I loved it straightaway, than later I saw that they also had it in a coral/turquoise combination, I saw it someone else wearing it. I wanted them so badly, whichever colour I could get, I would be happy with.
I had huge intentions to make to Primark, but just didn't happen. I've been busy and so it took me ages to get there. One day, I went to the one in Hammersmith, where I hadn't been in ages, I had the hope to find the scarf there since that store it's not as busy as the one in Oxford St.

So, I got there just to find one scarf and that one was in someone else's neck! Making matters worst, I did ask the lady if she wanted to sell hers... She must have thought I was CRAZY!
The scarf btw, had been sold out at Primark a long, long time ago.

Moral of the story: Ebay-ed and got one in the end. Hurray!

I love it so much I have been wearing for days in a row and it has all my favourite colours for the Summer. It so goes with everything.

What a great find! I must admit I've only been in Primark once - their stores (or the crowds actually) terrify me. Glad you managed to score one on eBay. Too funny that you asked the lady to sell you the scarf ;-)

P.S. I've finally joined Twitter @haute_world. Hope to see you there!

haha you are a girl after my own heart I would do the same as well and ask the lady if she would sell it. I have just been on a mission to get the plaited shopper bag from Zara, I saw it ages ago and loved it but then but for some silly reason didnt get it at the time and then now Olivia Palmero has it its sold out everywhere!! So I did a bit of investigating and got my friend in Greece to get it out there for me luckily but I have learnt my lesson!! Great blog sweetie xx
