Bon Marche is full of surprises!

I must admit, up until recently, Bon Marche wouldn’t have been high on my list if I was looking for a new outfit - but how surprised was I when I saw their new season collection!

This autumn, Bon Marche has pulled out all the stops with a stunner of a collection, with pieces that no budget-conscious fashionista could ignore!

Part of their David Emanuel range - new to the CrownGate store - and mirroring this season’s sequin trend, is their black bat wing top (above), a snip at £30 and perfect for Christmas parties or for adding a bit of sparkle to a girls’ night out.

You can never have enough Little Black Dresses in your wardrobe, and the Bon Marche version, also part of the David Emanuel range, has been given a style makeover with a turn-down, button detail collar and contrast stitching – huge potential here for teaming with a large, waist-cinching belt and statement shoes. Oh, did I mention that it is a mere £30?

Bon Marche blouse & skirt

I’m a real sucker for this season’s plum shades, so their crepe blouse, and burgundy skirt combination (above) transported me to purple heaven – add some opaque tights and a statement necklace and who would have guessed your outfit came to under £35?  - Not me!
