Hauling

This weekend I headed into town with my man friend fully prepared to spend a fortune on lovely clothing, however it turned into one of those shopping trips that occur when you have the money to spend yet find nothing you really want :(. These are the few bits I picked up, hope you enjoy.

Just a few little accessories from Primark. I saw BeautyCrush with this leaopard print bow and she was using it as a bow tie with collared tops, I plan to do exactly the same, oh and hens why I bought the next item,... 

Burnt orange collared top £5, Primark. Long enough to wear with leggings, I like to team it underneath a jumper so the collar is on show, do up the top button and go for a cute/pretty look.

 

These are the super cosy tights from Primark, £3.50. These are so thick almost like leggings and I hope you can see in the image above that the inside of the tights have this fluffy/furry/felty/cosy amazing lining to keep your nice and warm this winter.

To put it in a nutshell I have had a pretty crappy stressful week and really wanted to pick up some Lush products so I can have a big relaxing bubble bath. I adore the smell/flavour of almonds and that marzipan aroma, so these two had to be purchased. The first one is the Lush Pud, don't quote me on this but I'm pretty sure this is part of the permanent collection. The other is their new Melting Snowman, let me share the Lush blurb about this beaut:

"Our little snowman is about to shuffle off this mortal coil – but not before you get one last bath from him as he disappears for another year. 

It is a short but glorious life that our Melting Snowman lives. He may not have long to go, but boy is he going to make a grand exit.

Exquisitely fragranced with a blend of oils containing vanilla absolute and sweet wild orange, giving him a deep marzipan fragrance with notes of rich fruit, reminiscent of Christmas cake and figgy puddings. Which means he smells exactly the same as our bestselling Snowcake soap.   

But if it isn’t enough to smell of our most popular Christmas fragrance,  he’s also got a body made of water-softening bicarb of soda, cocoa butter and shea butter. This means that when the heat gets to him and he finally melts away, he fizzes those wonderful butters through your bathwater, leaving you soft and moisturised. What a way to go !

His legacy is your great skin – which means he lives on in the memory of all who knew him."

To put it simply, I cannot wait to use him!!!

Oh I also picked up a batwing top from Primark which was £2.90, was meant to be £5 but they had them on offer. I have wanted to try a batwing top for a long time and this was just the right price to pay in case I hated it on. However truth be told I love it, its not photographed as I have it on right now, but I may do a little outfit of the day with it in.

Now here are a few things I have been picking up over the past few weeks.

 

Leopard Print Bag - £9 - Primark. I like the way it opens, like a doctors bag, however the clasp is now broken :( I guess you only get what you pay for.

 

Cosmetic Wrap/Roll - £2 - Primark. This was in the sale from £5,. I probably wouldn't of bought it otherwise, however it has really proven itself to be a valuable little item and I use it every weekend without fail. You can also fit a hell of a lot of stuff in it, which is great for me as I never seem to travel light.

Muslin clothes, now only 59p or 69p from Home Bargains, these are the best quality ones I have found so far and certainly the cheapest, I stocked up while they had them in and bought loads. 

Wolf Jumper  - £14 - Peacocks. I fell in love with this jumper when I saw it. I had been on the market for a plain black jumper at the time as it is a timeless wardrobe staple, but when I saw this I had to buy it. The glitter on the wolf was fine till it was washed, after that it seemed to have gone everywhere, again you get what you pay for but I do very much like it. Oh and its also longer at the back so it can be worn with leggings for that lazy yet still fashionable look.

Lastly this has to be the best bargain I have found all year. I had this coat on my wishlist, it was £90 from River Island, however I managed to pick it up for £35 in their mid season sale, yes my friends that is less than HALF PRICE. It is so warm, in fact maybe a little too warm to wear right now, but I assure you when the Winter really kicks in this will not be off my back. Total value for money and I am so happy to have it hanging in my wardrobe.

Thanks for reading, I hope you liked my little "haul"

Stay Classy
