I recently went on a small New Look splurge purchasing a few things I thought would be great for times like now, and for the winter season which is fast approaching us. Plus I just wanted to find an excuse to do a bit of online shopping right?!

Black Heels - Size 6 (UK)
So the first thing that was the main reason why I wanted to purchase was for these black suede heels, they zip up the back and are stretchy crossed lace like patterned on the front. When I got these I was slightly overwhelmed with how high they was, something I wasn't anticipating if I do say so! I would estimate them to be a good 5 or 6 inch heel height, and when I put them on I feel as though the backs of them push my feet forward more making it difficult to walk in... However I refuse to give up on these beauties and will be practicing to walk around the house in them during the next few weeks.

Baby Pink Ribbed Body Suit
I recently purchased a baby pink ribbed jumper from Lipsy, but it's cropped and honestly I get rather insecure when wearing a crop top.. I just hate showing skin! (I'm not fat or embarrassed just not a fan of it). I bought a size 10 thinking about the length of this as I'm tall but was worried it might not fit as I've never worn one of these before... It fitted perfect! It's slightly loose around the waist area but in length it's perfect, the shoulders are more 'off the shoulder' style but there is one major problem with this. At the bottom of this it has a button like shutting, I assume to make it easier to go the bathroom when wearing the product right? But WOW! It's majorly uncomfortable to wear with a pair of jeans over the top, I'm not sure if I will wear this or use it because you feel the plastic dig straight into your leg as you walk! Note to myself - buy one without this feature next time.

Batwing High Neck Tan Jumper
I purchased this thinking it would be great for the fall season, high neck because I love that style, but a lightweight knit material for the cooler days... I ordered a size medium (thinking let it be slightly loose and baggy) but WOW! It's huge.... Originally I was going to send this back but just decided to keep it now, I do regret not buying a size small, because honestly I would say this jumper could easily fit a size 12-14 whereas I'm more of a size 8-10. But I've just tucked the jumper into my jeans and sort-of make do with it...

Knitted High Neck Vest Jumper
This jumper was something different to what I've seen before, the vest top like sleeveless armed was just something which intrigued me... Again I went for a size medium thinking let it be loose and over-sized as during the winter times I prefer a loose baggy jumper to snuggle up into, but my bad! The medium must be around a size 12-14 because it's just huge, I doubt I will be wearing this unless I wash it and try to shrink it in size... A bonus is the material is very soft and cuddle-like.

New Look | Shopping Haul

So I've recently started Experiential Learning in University (which is basically where you do a work placement for 7 weeks), with this I've been on the haunt to buy new clothes which is more "work appropriate". I went to Primark with the intentions to buy some shoes, but managed to pick up a whole load of things!

1. Cream Pointed Shoes - I picked up these simple but cute shoes for only £3! They was in the sale, but I picked them up because of how simple they looked with a gold trip around the small heel base. They are more of a suede material, easy to slip on and off and a light colour perfect for the summer (And they would go with pretty much any outfit).

2. Brown Heeled Boots - I picked these boots up because of how stylish they looked, a more popular style this spring if I'm honest. I bought them because they was really comfy to wear, they zip up the side and have a 'lace' like appearance down the side with 'tassels' flowing loosely. They are again a suede material, and the colour goes perfect with a handbag I recently bought. Plus to my amazement, when I went to pay they price had been lowered to just £10!

3. White Pocket Vest Top - This top is very lightweight, and sheer like. It has two fairly large pockets on the front (near the top part) and buttoned up straight down the middle. With the vest like style and lightweight material, I felt it was perfect to wear with the warmer weather starting, plus the white/cream shade material will go with most clothes and a perfect 'Smart' look top for 'Work' etc.

4. Snake Print Shorts - These shorts where laid out near the pajama/shoe section, so personally I would wear just around the house to lounge around in or for bed. They where only £2.50, very thin lightweight material and have been perfect to wear with the warm evenings we've been experiencing recently, plus I love the pattern really modern and unique.

5. Head Piece - So while looking in the jewelry section I discovered this unique headband piece for only £1, it's elastic band (in a black material) which can easily be hidden with my dark hair (bonus factor). And, the pale pink gems on the front work great with most colours, it can be worn on the forehead or on the hair as a headband something different to try out.

6. Necklace - This necklace was an amazing cheap price for £1, I loved how large it appeared, but I must admit once I took it out the packaging I was not a fan. This necklace is based of beads (which looks fine) but they are all on a small elastic band, first off it's risky... One small pull and the elastic will break and you will be left with a mess of beads, but also it's hard to maintain a simple shape, it becomes very odd-shaped and looks pretty awful when you wear it.

7. Black 3/4 Ankle Trousers - I loved the style of these, they where a cotton style material in a smart trouser style (fake pockets on the backs and side pockets). Plus they are 3/4 ankle length which is great for warmer weathers, the colour black is perfect too.. It would go well with any clothing colour, however I felt these where too "smart" when I wore and even trying to dress them down became a major chore.

8. Patterned 3/4 Ankle Trousers - I also picked up another pair of trousers, these are the exact same style as the black ones except they are patterned in a black & white colour scheme, they are a comfy fit and easy to dress up or dress down.

Overall, I'm in love with majority of the products I purchased, they are great to work for smart occasions but can easily be worn with casual looks too.. Let me know in the comments or on Twitter you recent/best Primark buy?X

Thanks for reading!

Primark Haul | Spring 2016

So a few weeks back I took a small trip out to a new Primark store which opened up near by, and honestly forgot how impressive some of there products can be! They was just getting into summer season as well as spring clothes plus a lot of season themed decor too.

24 Fashion Nails - £1
So I didn't pick these up till I was about to pay, as I was waiting in the long line they have those circular pods with small cheap accessories and I noticed these nails. I'm a huge lover of nails but after having a bad time with Acrylics I prefer to use these type (glue on nails), it's easier and simpler to do. I normally buy clear nails, forced to shape them myself, paint them myself and always struggle to find a good nail glue. But for £1, you get 24 nails (different sizes) and x1 nail glue! I found when I put a set on they really did last about 2 weeks before they started to fall off but you can easily just glue back on! The colour (nude like) was easy to paint over with no need to layer on more and more coats.

Goii Berry & Ginger Candle - £2.50
Now of course I am a huge lover with candles, and I've picked up a few Primark candles previously but this range seemed to be new to me... The scent was strong packed with ginger spices but a fresh sweet berry smell. The combination seemed to be a sugary but spice scent that seemed to fall in love with me instantly, plus it's in a farily large jar. Plus the jar itself is beyond stylish, it looks great on my desk or dressing table, or even out in the garden and once I've finished burning I am for-sure going to be reusing this for brush holding or something of that nature.

3 Pair Cosy Socks - £2.50
With any Primark trip I make, I always have to buy thick fluffy socks. These are just my favorite to wear around the house or after a warm bath/for bed, I always get cold feet and these are just beyond comfy to wear. Plus, what made me go for these was the fact you get three pairs for £2.50, usually they are around £1-£2 each! All three pairs have a different style, light blue, grey and white patterned but honestly who cares? I think they are pretty cute looking anyway.

Grey Tee-Shirt - £2.50
And I picked up this causal grey tee, it has a small pocket on the left breast area and isn't tight fitted which is perfect to lounge around in. And for that price who cares? The material is soft, not heavy very light-weight and the colour has stayed after a few washes already.

Overall, I'm glad with my small purchases they are everything someone would probably love too. All at an affordable price range, and all have a need to be used.

Primark Essentials | Mini Haul

So after receiving March's Glamour Magazine in the post I instantly fell in love as they used my favorite colours in the cover! Plus this magazine is jam packed with fashion icons and solutions with lots of models throughout showing off the new season styles.

To those of you who expect to receive freebies in magazines, prepare to be disappointed as this month Glamour haven't included ANY samples or mini's throughout and you only receive the Graze coupons. However, one thing I did notice about the magazines fashion throughout is all the style on crinkles and cut out clothes on the models. Of which, it seemed to showoff photographs unique style in capturing photos of the same scene within a canvas of different angles throughout!

Overall, I did enjoy reading and looking at all the new fashion styles and whats in and not in! It was a perfect magazine to relax to some music and enjoy a soft clean candle while reading and making notes on what you need in your wardrobe this season! X
