OOTD | Red Jumpers and Black Vans

I'm getting into the swing of things with outfit posts, I've kind of stepped up my game when it comes to what I wear. I'm tending to not wear jeans as often, the skirts I own were being a little neglected. 
Anyhoo, today it wasn't overly hot but it was a dry day so I thought I'd wear a skirt (and tights y'know it is still a little bit cold). I'm not really sure how to describe this outfit, maybe girly grunge...? Emmmm, who knows. Anyway, my top is from Asos, I got it in the sale for about £8 or there abouts - my brother laughed at me cause Obey is a skater brand or something. I'm digressing... It has quite low arm holes, so I tend to always wear a jumper with it. The jumper I'm wearing - my absolute favourite jumper fyi, its like my safety blanket - is from Urban Outfitters, I got it years ago for Christmas, I think it was from their renewal range. Its seen better days though as it now has a few holes in it but I've never loved a jumper more and I can't bring myself to throw it out! The skirt is also from Urban Outfitters, I got it in the Christmas sales, I think it was around £18. I've got this skirt in a different colour but that one doesn't fit the same, its a really nice fit this one though. It zips all the way up and has an elastic bit on the back of it, just to give a bit extra room in it. My shoes are Vans, they are the suede ones, and I again got these in the sales. The watch I have is a Casio one, I got it for my birthday and I really love it. 
I thought I would quickly mention what my lip colour is, its new and I love it. It's one of the new Melted lipsticks from Too Faced, this is the shade Rudy (I think) and its quite a pink toned red.

Girls Day Out Glasgow Purchases

So on the 29th of November I went to the Girls Day Out in Glasgow with my mum - we went last year together and I loved it. I also tried and bought Benefit for the first time last year at the Girls Day Out. This year, I didn't get any make-up this year but I did get a few clothing items - from Oasis.
Oasis isn't a brand I've ever bought from, but I've always lusted after their clothes. I thought I would take advantage of the fact that they were offering 20% off everything. So I got a couple of really pretty tops and a pair of jeans.
The first thing I saw was this red high low cami. I imagine wearing this with dark coloured jeans, ankle boots and a leather jacket. Full price it was £22 but I got it for £17.60
The next thing I got was something that I didn't think I'd like the look of on. But when I tried it on I decided that I couldn't leave it behind. This is such a beautiful collared maroon jumper style top. The sleeves are sheer and the colar is this beautiful black lace.
I'm not sure if I'll wear a little cami or vest or something underneath this, just in case I get a little warm in it. But looking at it again, I think i will need some kind of top under it since I am currently freezing my butt off in a huge thick jumper. Full price it will cost £38 to buy but I got it for £30.40
Lastly I got these pair of jeans - they feel very much like the TopShop Joni jeans, they look lovely on - all be it a little long on me. The jeans are a dark blue jean colour and are in the style JADE - they came in a lovely red colour as well but they didn't feel/look the same on. These were £32 if you were to buy them now then it would be £40
Have you been to any events like this recently?
Were you at the girls day out?
