Mini Haul: Warm & Stylish

As I was back in Norwich this weekend I decided to visit Primark.
It’s not great compared to the London stores but it’s usually a lot calmer.
Well I was wrong in thinking I’d have a nice relaxing browse this time round.
My haul is actually pretty small as I just couldn’t bare the crowds for long enough.
Still, I managed to pick up some cute and cuddly items to add to my A/W wardrobe.
Yes, I did buy another fluffy cardigan, although this one is longer than my other.
I also wanted one in this green as I adore the colour and how it looks with my hair.
I was considering the cheetah (leopard?) tights for quite a while but just went for them.
At least the crowds made me more impulsive, as I’m usually a dreadfully annoying shopper.
The rose tights were right next door to the others and just looked so cute and warm.
All 3 of these for under £20 isn’t bad either, is it? Good ol’ Primark.

OOTD: Sky Blue

Sweater* – Oasap | Leggings – Select | Necklace – Primark | Watch* – French Connection

Wow, would you believe it, an outside outfit shot! I haven’t done one of these for a while, purely because I got too attached to my white wall. Anyway I think it makes a nice change and I wanted to match my sweater to the glorious sky. A little bit of sunshine can’t do any harm, right?
I know it isn’t Autumn yet but this sweater is pretty light. I think it will be worn quite a bit as the weather starts to change. I love the gradient on the sweater, but boy was it hard to choose which colour. It was almost impossible to choose between this royal blue one, the lilac and pastel green. I think I may just have to order the other two…or would that be overindulging? Probably. Still, this one pairs well with light and dark colours so I think I choose well.

Haul: Amazing Primark Goodies

Last pay day I had a hospital appointment so I decided to cheer myself up with some window shopping. Well…that window shopping actually turned into a haul as soon as I stepped into Primark. The store was littered with items from their new A/W collection, and since Autumn is my favourite season I grabbed at everything and headed to the fitting rooms.
This season Primark are mixing fabrics (which I love) and are featuring some flattering cuts.
I didn’t end up buying everything I tried on but I did buy a few pieces.
I picked up:
+ A grey mixed fabric skater dress
+ Pyjama style ‘silk’ shorts
+ Velvet flatforms/platforms
+ Vintage style chain earrings
If I’d found a shirt too I’d have an entire outfit, right?
I love everything and I can’t wait to take some outfit shots for the blog.

OOTD: Orange Fancy

Dress: Topshop | Shoes – Primark | Bag – Topshop | Sunglasses* – Warehouse | Necklace – Tatty Devine

On Monday I made my way to the Southbank Centre for a friend’s graduation. I wanted something special for the day, but something I could wear afterwards too. It took a few hours of trying on different shorts, blouses and dresses to finally find this one though.
The cut of this Topshop dress is lovely and the print is amazingly loud. I knew that this would be perfect for a hot Summer’s day by the Thames. It may clash with my hair but since when I did care about clashing colours? I’m just pretty proud of myself for not resorting to choosing a black dress for the occasion. Of course I had to find a colourful backdrop, that was equally as loud as the dress.
Thank you to everyone who has continued to read my blog during my mini-hiatus.
It is still a difficult time right now, but I’m hoping to update at a speed that is comfortable to me.

Haul: Topshop & Primark

(Dress: Topshop, Necklace: Primark, Shoes: Primark)

Just a tiny haul post with some items I bought recently.
I needed a nice new Summer dress, some shoes to match and a bit of bling bling.
Well that is a lie because I already own the same necklace from Primark – this one is for my sister.
I genuinely love the jewellery Primark is releasing right now, from their regular & limited edition collections.
The majority of pieces are bold statement necklaces and earrings, and are perfect for pairing with tees etc.
I bought this necklace a couple of weeks ago for myself and I was tempted to buy another, in case I broke mine.
That probably seems a bit weird but I love this necklace to pieces…like I would literally wear it until it’s in pieces.
I know, I know, I have a serious problem when it comes to buying jewellery. I just can’t help it!
I haven’t posted a full on photo of the dress as you’ll find an outfit post featuring it on Saturday.
As for the shoes, they’re so simply chic and comfortable – the perfect pair of flats!
