March Payday Wishlist.
Christmas 2014 Haul.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you all!
It's been a busy Christmas, full of festivities, shopping and eating and it all contributed to my lack of posting over the past few weeks. The good news is that I am back once more for you reading pleasure and I am looking forward to what 2015 brings. I thought I would start with a quick post to show you lovely lot what I got for Christmas from my friend's and family. I was extremely happy and very grateful to find that most of my wishlist, that I previously posted - here - was actually bought for me by my boyfriend and my sister! I never expected any of it to be honest, but I can't complain at the thoughtfulness that went into those gifts and for the fact that they clearly read my blog so faithfully. Other gifts included A LOT of chocolate, toiletries and a gift box filled with nostalgic treats and jokey presents from one of my best friends. I've included what I can below, so enjoy and I hope you all had a wonderful christmas and got some meaningful gifts!(p.s Hover over the images for a list of what they are!)
What did you get for Christmas? Why not comment below!
November Haul.
I know that November has been over for 2 days now, but I didn't get a chance to blog the things that I bought. You'll notice that I haven't bought an awful lot and that will be down to Christmas coming up and various things going on that I was invited to. I'm slowly trying to replace things in my wardrobe as i'm getting a little bored with it as well, which subsequently always happens at the end of the year and i'm also trying to buy things that will last. So here's some snaps of my November haul guys, hope you like it!
The skirt is from Primark and I managed to bag it for just £3 in the sale and the shirt is from H&M and is currently £17 in their sale online.
Both the boots and the hat are from H&M, the boots are £25 in the sale and the hat is £12.99 full price.
This is my new gym gear from Primark, I love the gym clothes that they sell because they are affordable, comfortable and very resilient. The also bring out new styles every now and again so you can build up your collection. I'm loving their bright colours mixed with marled greys and washes. It reminds me of 1980s exercise videos, so all I need now is a leotard and a massive flannel headband!
Haul.
Obviously a major part of visiting your friends in another city is to go shopping! Especially when you've just been paid.....oh yeah. We were breaking our backs getting final pieces stitched together and after it was all shown to an industry panel we decided to take a little time to ourselves to go out and spend some hard earned money. Pretty sure we spent 6 hours trawling around every store we could find, but it was so worth it!!! Now one store that i need to commend for their current selection is H&M (two posts in a row!) there was sooooo much that i wanted, it was hard to just put it down to a few items otherwise i would have been busting my bank account. Regrettably, not all the money in there is for clothes, sigh. Here's what i bought -
Now you can probably tell i have a large soft spot, or maybe just a complete infatuated love for cats! I used to buy everything i saw that had a cat on it, however i have since trained myself to stand back and mull it over first. That being said i did buy two things that pay homage to our furry friends. The t shirt is far too cute to handle and i felt like i needed something a little more fun in my wardrobe and the bag came in a choice of black or leopard print. I went for the latter due to my collection of black items, i have far too many and i'm pretty sure my mother would disapprove at the thought of another black bag in our house. The blouse you can't see so well but it is sort of a snake print, i just thought it would be something sophisticated for work.
Moving on, we also took some time to look in some beauty stores where i purchased some new nail varnishes and also received a free No.7 gift set, yay! As well as some hair clips and some lipcote, which keeps your lipstick on fantastically. I spent so much money on everything i almost lost count but i'm pretty pleased with my new items, not so much getting them home however. My suitcase was already very heavy, oops.
