Sharing her thoughts on her haul on social media, Laura modelled her new purchases - leaving her with mixed reviews.
In the Instagram clip, Laura explained that an ASOS jumpsuit made her look like a Teletubby, but it wasn’t all bad, as she had found a satin skirt that was sure to be a wardrobe staple.
Showing off her new buys, she noted: “Trying on things that are out of my comfort zone. Thought I’d do a new mini series as I’m trying to push myself when it comes to my fashion choices so I’m not just living in midi dresses.”
The fashionista then said: “I am definitely a creature of habit so I thought it would be a good idea to do a new little series where I try on things that are way out of my comfort zone and that scare me.”
Laura first tried on a cream blazer, as she explained: “Absolutely hated this the minute I got it out of the packet.
“I bought it because of this rose thing which is really on trend apparently.
“I don’t actually hate, like despise it, it does need a steam.
“With the right styling it would be ok, but I sort of feel like my nan in it. Sorry nan.”

“I really like it and it’s really comfortable as well, it’s got a bit of stretch to it as well.
“I think this would look so nice with a band tee and a leather jacket and boots for Autumn.
