Teen Wardrobe Haul


After many years of having pretty much a full wardrobe's worth of clothes at my parents' house I never touched, my mum finally persuaded me to have a clear out. I got rid of a lot of stuff, but I also discovered some gems that I'd forgotten about that I've now added to my current wardrobe and can't wait to wear throughout the summer. It's quite nice being able to do a haul when I haven't actually spent any money (not recently anyway!). Here's what I've added to my wardrobe:

Next denim dress



This dress must be about eight years old, but how nice is it?! I'm imagining it with a plain white top underneath and white trainers. I remember this being insanely comfortable, which always gets a thumbs up in my book.

H&M yellow floral skirt



I bought this while I was at university and it is really nice for summer so I'm not sure how it ended up being stored away at my parents' house. It is very bright so the rest of my outfit needs to be fairly neutral, but I'll definitely wear it this summer.

Topshop anchor print top



I used to wear this all the time when I was about 16 and the whole sailor look was cool. I don't know if it still is or not, but finding this reignited my love for it and let's face it, who doesn't love a t-shirt that you can just throw on with jeans?

H&M denim shorts


I realise these look like pyjamas in the picture and I promise you they are not. I'm not a big denim short wearer because I cringe a little at the sight of my thighs, but these are so cute with the spotty pattern and hopefully I'll pluck up the courage at some point this summer to wear these!

What do you think of my teen wardrobe haul? Which item is your favourite? Do you still have any clothes from when you were a teenager?

  8. Some of my favourite items are more than six, seven years old and I'll stop wearing them only when they completely fall apart :) I'm loving all of these items you found at your parents house, literally can't pick out a favourite because I would wear them all. Okay maybe the anchor top because I'm a sucker for nautical everything :D

  14. I love that denim dress, it's so cute. It's fun rediscovering items you'd forgotten you'd got, it is like going shopping for free. I have a cupboard of things I should really sort out, I may find some new outfits hidden away :)
