Dress, Necklace, Earrings, Shoes: all River Island, Clutch: ASOS
I bloomin' love that dress, and it's just calling out to be made part of my little clothing collection. However, I'm getting quite strict with myself when purchasing new clothes - in that if I can't think of an outfit using things already in my wardrobe, no buying.
Keeping this is mind, I've been trying to clip the online equivalent of items I purchase and things already in my repertoire to Polyvore, so that when I'm considering buying something - I already have everything there, ready and waiting to arrange into an outfit. This may seem a little OTT to some of you, but have you ever been faced with the 'I have no friggin' clue what to wear' situation which results in your trying nearly everything on and then having to spend half an hour tidying and rehanging everything. No? Well I do it a lot.
Being able to have a play around on Polyvore whilst watching The Big Bang Theory is so much for fun - not to mention less stressful. Win all round.So I'm pretty thrilled with this little outfit I now have all together and lovely above. Thrilled. Although, I've also considered how it might look if I decided to dress it down a little as well.

Do you have any certain 'rules' you follow when buying clothes? Or do you just buy what you love and piece it together later? Comment and let me know!
