Little Primark Haul

Hello lovelies. I'm really sorry for the lack of posts at the moment but I think Soph and I have been super busy recently. I'm back now though! I treated myself a little bit the other day, without spending big money so I thought i'd give you a little peak (: Where better to buy lots and not pay bucket loads? Yup, Primark. 

Cream Lace Blouse- £10
 
 I've had my eye on this every time I went into work so I thought it was about time to finally buy it. I must admit, it looked a lot better on the hanger (most things do) but I still really like it for £10. The detail is lovely, with the pleated bottom, lace panels, dimpled shoulders and cuffed wrists and think that it's a nice play on the simple white blouse. 

Grey Boyfriend Tee- £3.50

 I have so many plain t shirts but this is by far my favourite. I love anything that's boyfriend cut, as it's generally meant to look a couple of sizes bigger and more casual and those who know me know that I am fond of oversized clothes. This is such a bargain for £3.50, and I'll definitely be purchasing every other colour that they release!

Bow Tie Skirt- £6

 I was never a fan of skirts until recently, and now I have tons of maxi and midi's. However, I don't have many skater skirts so I thought it was time to add to my collection after spotting this at work. It also comes in blue with mini hearts and also a very vibrant flower pattern but I was drawn to this more than the others. 

Vine Backed Tights- £1

I actually can't believe these were only £1 (reduced from £3?) and they are my new favourite tights. The flower detail goes down the back of the leg and they loops around the ankles so they're not too in your face but still fun. I love the detail around the ankle so much that I'm tempted to get this tattooed there now!

Micket Mouse Tights- £3
 
 I've been wanting these for so long! I'm a big Disney fan and they've been in the shop for a couple of months but I eventually gave in and bought them. It's a good job too because they were the last pair! I know I won't be wearing them out very often but they'll be good for fancy dress and halloween time (: 

Tan Croc Bag- £3*

 *Bit of a cheat, but I actually got this from a charity shop which is why it was only £3! I think in the shop this would probably be around £12 considering the size. The detail is really nice on it and it also comes with a handy, long shoulder strap which is a must for me. It's massive inside too. 

So, there you go (: just a super quick post about my buys this week. Again, sorry about the lack of posts but I'll be keeping on top of them again now so don't worry, we haven't gone anywhere!

Winter Shopping



Hello Ladies (:


 Here's a new outfit post for you all. OH and by the way, there is no suitable place in my house (i.e no blank walls, no open spaces with natural light) which is why i'm taking photographs in my room, and I promise i'll get rid of all that stuff on my door in future posts because I know it's quite distracting! Right so, new outfit! I wore this out for shopping last friday, pretty effortless but still all snug and nice for winter.

I got the wool shorts from Primark, who had only had them in for a week before they reduced them down to £5 (originally £12!) so I took the chance to snap a pair up before they all sold! They've got a sweet little aztec type pattern on and comes with a brown bow belt.
  I've been trying to find you an alternative just in case you don't have access to a Primark or if they've sold out but I can't seem to find anything similiar. Aztec patterns are usually more readily avaliable in the summer seasons!


I'm wearing this beautiful flowered lace blouse over the top of a plan black, long sleeved Primark t shirt which I purchased for a stupidly cheap £2.00. 
I got this blouse as a gift for christmas from Sophie, so you'll have to ask her about price! However it's from a brand called Amber Krystal London which you can find in Ark stores and online. 

I've also found some lovely alternatives for you just in case you can't find this one (:

My tights are just some cheap boxed black ones from Primark and my shoes were a real bargain from Matalan! They're creeper like, in a sense that they have a platform but are ballet pump rather than the sterotypical creepers.
They also sell them in blue for £6.00 in the sale, and black with leopard in-soles and all over leopard print for £10.00.
Mine are also £10.00 but were shoved on the £6 sale rail so therefore got them for the reduced price!
Just a re-cap!
