Primark Haul, River Island Bag, antique shop finds and Lush.

Hello Peeps! 
I've have a busy month! I've got more hours at work! I've been attempting to re-arrange and re-decorate my house. I've been sorting out general life issues, including getting back to my more spiritual side, meditation, yoga etc... and I've been off on an adventure to Exeter to see my old school friends for a much needed-catch up, and obviously some retail therapy occurred!
I did have a huge issue the entire weekend away with my anxiety being on high alert, but I think I kept it quite well in check, with a little help from my friends. It has left me on a bit of a downer though, so to perk myself up...blog post! BOOM. 
Product list, prices and links all at the bottom. xoxo

Primark and New Look haul, plus interesting price differences between AX Paris online and in store....

First things first. I have to address my BARGAIN OF THE DAY:



This is my nude/pink and black Body con dress from AX Paris. Bought in store from New Look. Now as i said in the title, there was a very large price difference when i looked up the dress online to add a link to my blog, on the Offical AX Paris website it is Listed as £40 HERE.
While I luckily enough picked up the Dress for only £16 in the Sale in New Look. I know obviously they have completely different marketing and pricing techniques as obviously New Look buys in AX Paris stuff and sells it for them, like Quiz clothing do as well. But i would have thought that in order to reduce the price of an item from an outside label it would have to be instructed by the label's owner, and then they too would match the price, as what is stopping someone from buying the £16 one from New Look, taking off the New Look tag and taking it back to AX Paris to get a £40 refund... Or am i the only one who thinks bad people would do things like this...
ANYWAY moving on, i also bought a small bag to match from New Look, It's literally the perfect match, with a beautiful Gold chain strap, this was £12.99 brand new.
I'm so happy with this outfit when i put it on, all i need now are some shoes. Oh i should probably add it's for a friends wedding in april so i deliberetly went for similar or matching items, and the longer sleeves were just a plus for me, because as much as i like showing off my Tattoos i find my upper arms are a problem area for me and i like to hide them when there are cameras about.


Also in the New Look sale i FINALLY got my hands on a FLUFFY JUMPER>>> Not the Pale blue cropped Top Shop one I wanted, but when on a budget you have to say No sometimes. Especially at those prices. This one is just as soft, bigger and slightly baggier but i love the fit. I couldn't decide between the cream or the burgandy colour, in the end i bought the darker, simply because when i'm eating, food seems to be attracted to my breasts, and i'm less likely to stain a dark plum one.
That was £12, and i bought it in size bigger as i like to layer my jumpers and not feel too resticted. Because of how wide the neck is it looks lush with a shirt on underneath and the collar peaking through.
Final thing from New Look in the sale again were these amazing little Candy-Skull nail wraps that were only £1! Amazing! So far they've lasted 3 days with minimal chipping, and i've still done my usual day-to-day cleaning and washing up. So well worth the money!

Next are a couple of bits from Primark;
First of all these skinny, faux leather trousers. If you've followed me on previuos blogs you'll know i'm a sucker for leather but i never used to wear it as i'm a size 16 i had it drummed into my head that i was "too big". But sod it! I now own two pairs of faux leather trousers, and when i pass my bike licence i'll be in leather a hell of a lot more.

Then i saw this, and if you know me at all, even just a tad, you'll know that ANYTHING with My Little Pony on is MINE! It's like one of a few things i can remember vividly and fondly from when i was younger. When it first came into fashion and everyone was going on about "retro" My Little Pony items and i just complained, i didn't want to share my "thing" with anyone. Obviously it's not exclusivly MINE but you get what i mean. I didn't want my quirky little thing to become everyones fashion statement, but i take it all back. It's so much easier to find MLP items now!

I also own the white t-shirt they had of MLP, back in August. Next on the agenda is their MLP pyjamas! Muwahahaha!

And last but not least i had to add on this little Geisha Make up bag i bought from a charity shop, still brand new, never used had it's tags on it. And was only £1.75! So pretty and the colours are amazing.

As usual thank you all for reading my lovlies! And thank you so much for all your support so far! Already! It's been a crazy two months back on the scene!

PRIMARK sale haul!

I was bad! So very very bad. I frequented Primarche and purchased a vast array of clothing items... which i didnt really need, but totally wanted.

First up is this EXTREMELY soft fleecy lined spotted panda hood-thing. I'm not sure what it is really, it's nightware, but it's a dress not a onesie, its knee length and has pockets. It's literally so warm i'm wearing it right now. That was in in the sale for £5!!!



Then we have a little Silver collar clip, or tips, with loads of little tiny crosses, really cute, literally just pin each edged to each side of your collar. That was 50p!


This silver necklace with gems and pink roses is really cute. I wanted when it first went on sale but every time i had any money i'd forget to go and get it. Finally go it and in the sale for £2!



This cream/off white chiffon shirt is extra long to cover my bum. Mainly what i want when i'm wearing leggings as we all know they can be a tad revealing around the buttox area!, its very sheer but super floaty and soft, i have a lot of crop tops and vests i can wear under it. And it as really cute little pearl button details too.£9



I bought these floral leggings to go with the floaty shirt, i'll probably also team them up with a few other floaty tops i have too. They were £3. They weren't in the sale section, and were still priced as £6 but they came up as £3 so who am i to argue!




EVERYONE should have something with a unicorn on at the moment. I don't care how "high fashion" you are, DO IT. And these slippers were only £2! Sooo cute!!! (The unicorn is saying i'm magic)


FINALLY i managed to get my hands on what i call a crap-Christmas jumper. Not because they're crap at all this one is actually really nicely made and fleece lined, so its stupidly soft and warm, i got it in a larger size, one because it was the ONLY one left and two because i like my jumpers to be a bit bigger so there's room. This was the last on the rail. Was marked as £8 but it came through as £5.



Then i got my hubbie one of these faux fur hats, with the ear flaps. He did get one for Christmas with a knitted Raindeer and star print on but its a little too small. As you can see this one is huge! It's really warm though. That was in the men's section for £8


This little simple knee length, stretchy black cami-dress was only £3 and not in then sale, they have loads in all different colours all at £3 each, a must have staple of anyone's wardrobe, you can layer with a top and wear it s a skirt, or wear it as a vest, or long vest with those pesky leggings, also great for summer just as a throw-it-on dress.


I found this red skirt on a sale rail for £3. It's actually really well made for a pencil skirt, has room in all the right places. And the black flock pattern is really slimming. They do have a red and emerald green version of this as a dress, not in the sale but its still a recommended buy. I personally didn't get the dress as it was sleeveless and im a little funny with ye olde bingo wings.

All in all a great haul. I put a brief video up of my items on my instagram, link HERE. So go and check that out and follow me there! Also my facebook page is finally up and running properly! This is where i'll be posting all my give-away's, competitions etc...so add me on the link HERE.
Thanks for reading! Also a big thanks to all my followers so far! :)
HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!
