I went 'holiday' shopping!

I had planned to do a little bit of last minute 'holiday' shopping because I needed to get a few more bits before I go away at the weekend. Having said that I ended up coming home with a little bit more than I had planned to come home with and to be honest a lot of it isn't very 'holidayish' but thought it would be a perfect excuse to show you what I had got right?

Home Sense

I can actually see my own future home being mostly of things made up from Home Sense. I just love how pretty much everything is 'one of a kind' and I always have a lot of fun exploring in there. I didn't really need another toilet bag but I really loved the patterns and the colours and it also comes with two other bags. I also noticed this Cupcake tin which was super cute though I think it'll be something I'll use in my bed room rather than the kitchen.

H&M 

I was hoping to find a few more summer pieces in H&M but think I'm a little bit too late! But instead I found these cosy jumpers. 

These shoes really stood out to me, they're a lot different to what I would usually go for but there's something about them that really caught my eye. They're sort of that plasticy material but actually a lot more comfier than I expected.

Boots

When I was younger I remember getting really excited about going holiday shopping because my mum had always promised to get me a disposable camera. With everything being so technical and digital now these sort of things are slowly being forgotten about. But I wanted to start using them more again and thought holiday would be a perfect place to start. I always used to get excited seeing how the photo's had turned out (most of which didn't turn out so well) but I love the idea of having actual photographs that you can keep in albums.

I also needed to get my beloved concealer from Collection. I then picked up this eye brow kit also from Collection which I've been hearing a few things about (:

Colouring books seem to be a bit of a thing right now and these were one of my favourite thing as a child. I picked these two up, I didn't realise how much choice you could get I spent a little while deciding between a few haha. 

It also has quotes on each page which is a unique thing about this one, definitely gives a little more inspiration while your colouring.

Hope your all having a good week, I'm back to work soon after having 4 days off. But I'll be going on holiday on Monday so it's all good! 

Till next time...

Patterned tops & Sparkly shoes!

Tops - Zara 

Jeans - Primark 

Shoes - New Look 

I used to shop in Zara a lot of the time but then suddenly it became something that I was never really that fussed with any more. The other day I popped in there and rummaged around for a while until in their sale section I came across these pattered Tshirts. They look very similar but each has something different and unique about them. I absolutely loved the cute patterns and the colours. 

Again with New Look it was a shop I used to go into quite a bit but there was something about it I didn't really like any more. To be honest I think it's always a bit of 'hit or miss' with me. But I do know that they can do some really great shoes in there. I have been looking for some new shoes for so long, and something like this was exactly what I had in mind. I wanted something different to what I usually go for but I wanted comfiness too and this pair is definitely both! 

These have turned out to be my favourite pair of shoes, I just love them! They are sparkly, they just don't look it so much in the pictures. At first I wondered if sparkly was maybe a bit tacky? But I love sparkles because the pink shade wasn't so 'in your face' and tasteful I thought these were just more casual and pretty. 

In the sun they sort turn into a metallic pink and extra sparkly! Me personally I love them! Perfect for my holiday coming up!

OOTD - Comfy and casual

Shirt - H&M

Bag - Forever 21

Watch - Primark

Skinny Jeans - Primark

It's mostly a chill day at home today apart from popping out to the shops. But I thought I would sneak in an OOTD post mainly because I am very proud of my new bag I bought from Forever 21 and I haven't been able to blog about it as of yet!

I absolutely love those cute little bags that just about fit the essentials you need in, me personally although I do have big bags I don't usually like carrying them around in places that I don't really need a big bag for. I like to have something light on my shoulder. Forever 21 is always a hit and miss with me, I find that I have to really look in the shop to find something that catches my eye. I came across this bag in the accessories section and I believe it was about £17 or so? I just think it's super cute and I think it goes perfectly with a casual outfit but it also smartens up an outfit that little bit more.

This shirt always reminds me of Christmas and the autumn/winter time because of the colours. But It's actually one of the most comfiest tops I've got, I mean pretty much all of my tops are comfy because that's what I tend to go for. But I just love the material and how soft this shirt is. But it's also not too hot to wear when the sun is out. 

For my trousers I'm just wearing typical skinny jeans which I bought from Primark quite a long while ago actually and they have lasted really well! 

And then you may recognise this watch which I talked about in a previous post of mine I'm still amazed at how cheap it was,  but that's Primark for you eh? I love Silver jewellery but I'm a gold accessory lover!

Hope you all had a good weekend! Until next time...

A little shopping haul.

In a previous post I did a 'part 1' shopping haul which was mainly things I bought from Boots in fact I think everything I got in that haul was from Boots. But I also went to a couple other shops like H&M and New Look, most of the Items I took home with me were from H&M (No surprise there! but It's my favourite shop!) 

They have just recently done up our local H&M and I really love it! There's definitely a lot more choice than what the other one had.  So I thought I should share with you the Items I took home with me.

The first thing I noticed was this spotted shirt, it's quite funny material actually it's that type that creases really easily but It actually gives it a nice effect in a way and it also keeps you quite warm (But not too warm) I just thought it was a really cute design. 

I haven't warn this yet but it already looks like it needs to be ironed. I loved the lilac colour which I thought would be perfect for this spring. And I absolutely love pastel colours and honestly don't own many pastel colour clothing. I believe this was around £6,99 and you can't really go wrong with that can you?

I love me some spotted tshirts! Blue is one of my favourite colours to wear too.

This is one I actually got from New Look. New Look is often a 'hit or miss' with me It used to be my favourite shop until I spent more time In H&M and then left New Look behind (Sorry New Look!) haha. But I do still often go in there I usually end up getting a lot of my jewellery from New Look because I always find nice pieces from there. 

Anyway, this Kimono was something I saw as soon as I had walked into the shop and it was just the beautiful colours and patterns that caught my eye It was something I was debating whether to get but in the end I decided that I couldn't leave it in the shop and not take it home with me. 

These beautiful bangles are also from New Look which I think I purchased for around £5 or so? But I loved the designs on these bracelets and thought they would be super cute to wear in the summer especially.

I'm currently changing my wardrobe from it's jumper/wintery theme to a spring/summer theme! So I'm sure they'll be a few more shopping trips to come soon which means more haul posts, yippee! 

Hope your all having a good bank holiday weekend, I unfortunately have to work tomorrow (10 hour shift!) which to be honest I'm not really looking forward to but hey I guess we've all gotta do things that we don't want to at times!

I went shopping!

Hey all! Hows it going?
I recently did a bit of shopping and came back with a few things so of course it's a perfect excuse to do a haul post. It wasn't a huge shopping trip I only ended up purchasing a few things from Boots and H&M but haven't done a haul in a little while!

I cannot go shopping and not go into H&M It is my all time favourite shop and they always do things that I love in there. Anyhow I only came back buying two Items in there one of reasons which is because I'm trying not to spend a lot at the moment and another is that they are actually re doing the shop, normally It's a pretty great H&M and sell a lot of things but It's only on one floor at the moment and have cut down selling a lot.
The first thing which caught my eye was this light pink jersey top with birds on, I usually go for simple/plain things and rarely pick Items with patterns on but recently I've been loving things with patterns and I really liked this and it was only £7.99 which is a pretty good bargin I think!

You can find the Jersey top here, http://www.hm.com/gb/product/87540?article=87540-D

I then noticed this cute body bag in the accessories section and absolutely love it! I was deciding between a yellow one or this white one, I thought the white one would pretty much go with anything. Although I think I may go back and get the yellow one because it was such a pretty colour and it would have been an amazing colour to wear In the summer. Not that I needed another bag but couldn't walk away from it! If I remember rightly I think this was around £5.99.

I then went into Boots because my make up bag needed some serious updating and replacing. So over the weeks I have been buying quite a few new make up/beauty products. 

I really really didn't need any more nail poslishes but I just loved these colours, I seem to be really loving pink nail polishes at the moment especially since spring has quickly arrived! 

I then also wasn't meaning to buy anything for my brows but I was taking a look at the 'Benefit' section which honestly I have never really tried before. And then got talking to one of the girls who worked on the Benefit counter and she was really helpful talking about this 'Benefit' eyebrow product and she basically just really recommended it to me so I thought why not give it a go? It was a little pricier to make up Items that I usually buy but I wanted to test it out myself, my sister had also been going on about this particular Item. 

'Collection' is one of my favourite brands, If not my favourite. I cannot express how much I love their concealers and eye liners. I definitely needed some new eye shadow's and just thought these were some really pretty colours and perfect for spring with the light pinks and purples!
