Leigh Super Soft Jeans; Topshop; £38


These jeans are amazing! It’s been years since I bought jeans in Topshop, but I’m glad I have these ones. They don’t feel like jeans at all, are super skinny and fit me like a glove. I will be investing in other colours.

Primark Loot :)

Apoligies for lack of posts this week ladies, just when I was on a roll as well, having blogged every day the previous week but as I'm sure you may all know by now, I started my new job on Monday, and have been a very busy bee. And once I come home, it's time to cook, clean up and get to bed. I promise I will try and do better.
I did pick up a few things in Primark this week that I wanted to quickly share with you, because we all know everybody loves a Primarni Haul :)

Haul From the Past Week & Bargain of the Year!

Over the past week of so, various mini shopping trips have occured, whether it be quickly before work, or before going to lunch with my boyfriend on Sunday, or online but I've managed to grab a few nice things.

Bangle, £2.50
Cream Earrings, £2/£2.50
Gold heart ring and stud set, £1
All Primark
Maxi Dress, Republic, £26.99

Maxi dress, Miss Selfridge, £30

Cream tunic dress (same as the black one from my last haul), Next, £45

And saving the best until last...

I popped into French Connection just to have a look to see if they had any nice dresses in as possibilities for my birthday dress. It turned out all their dresses (apart from new season ones) were reduced to £45. I took four to the changing rooms, without looking at the was prices. I tried one on and I automatically liked it, so I took it off and tried the rest, which I didn't like, so I decided to get just the one. Then to my greatest shock/excitement, I looked at the was price. Was £230. OMG!

Bargain or what?!

Whilst at the til I mentioned to the girl what a great bargain it was and she said that this week they were having a bargain bonanza, and they had slashed all the sale prices to £45, then as of Monday they go back up to their original sale prices again. I can't remember what the sale price of my dress was, and they take the price tags off in French Connection when you pay, so I couldn't even find out, unless it's on the website. But lucky or what?

Here is the dress in its full glory...

Beaded dress, French Connection, was £230, now £45 (for a limited time only!)

I know it doesn't look that special on the hanger, and just looks like an oversized t-shirt, but once it's on a body, it clings nicely round the bottom area, and is looser around the top, which is a sheer see-through material, but with all the beading and sequins, the fact that it is see-through isn't noticeable.

When I get a chance, I'll put it on and take a picture for you, so you can see what I mean.

I'm not sure if it's going to be what I wear for my birthday yet, because knowing me I will see something else I want!

This Weeks Shopping...

Good evening Poppets!

As well as working all week and drinking copious amounts of Diet Coke in order to collect all for of these babies for free at Boots (Nails Inc Promotion, buy two bottles of Diet Coke and receive a free bottle of Nails Inc Polish, but you all know this already!)

L-R: Paris, London, New York, Milan

I did manage to do a bit of shopping today. So here are my treasures :)

Nude jelly ballerinas, £12.99
Plimsoles, £12.99

Straight leg light distresses jeans, £39.99
Lemon vest, £5.99/£6.99 (can't remember which!)

Pink corsage, £1.50
Nude platforms, £12


England shorts, £4 to sport on holiday as I'm there for the World Cup

I needed a new mascara, so I thought I would try out Colossal, as Maybelline was on a 3 for 2 and my Mum got a mascara and lippy too. I also wanted to try out the new Paris Hilton for Elegant Touch nails, blame my Mumsy for the choice (!) I asked her to choose between the red ones with glitzy tips, the white flower tips and these, obviously she picked these, but they are called the "super girly" ones and I suppose thats about right!

I hope you are all having a fab week, and that you enjoyed my haul. I'm off to tidy my room and have a bit of me time, as the boy is out playing footie tonight, I'm all shopped out and sleepie!

Paris Essentials & A Mini MAC Haul

Hi ladies,

As many of you will know, for my birthday my boyfriend gave me a trip to Paris as a present, we go on the 29th and for the past month or so I've been collecting my so-called Paris essentials (not really essential, as I'm pretty sure I have quite enough clothes already that I could have taken, but any excuse to go shopping...) I'll add in all the prices incase anyone wants to ask about any of them.

I thought I'd share just a few of the things I have picked up so far:


Two Paris tops, as in my Mum's words when I saw them, I "had to have them". The one on the left is from Topshop (£16), it's a little bit cropped, hence the red v neck vest (£6 or 2 for £9) which I plan to wear underneath the I heart Paris top. And the other top is from Oasis (£22).


Slouchy beige off the shoulder jumper, ASOS (£20) and black "jeggings" are Oasis (£35)



Two jumper dresses (I get so bored of wearing jeans in the winter). The one on the left is from H&M (£19.99) and it is cable knit on the top and plain on the bottom and also comes in purple and white. The other dress is from Miss Selfridge (£38) and it has cut out detailing at the front, and a scoop neck at the back. Both of these will be great for the day time, with some thick black tights and a nice pair of boots.



Faux leather jacket with pleat detailing from Miss Selfridge (£45), will look great over this delicate layered style dress from French Connection, I got this dress back in September as a birthday present and have yet to wear it. I couldn't resist the little black sequin beret from River Island (£9.99) and will go perfectly with my new winter coat.


High boots, Primark (£19) and ankle boots, Next (£45)

::MAC HAUL::

This is just a recent MAC haul, only three items, I'm trying to be good.


Nude Rose lipstick from the new DSquared collection is a perfect daytime pink, and a 168 brush. Here's how the lipstick looks on me (no flash), I think it's a new fave. I'll post more about it and do a comparison in my next post.



And finally, I got a 4 pan pallette to take to Paris, so I don't have to take my 15 palette for fear if it getting smashed or anything.


Hope everyone's having a great weekend,  mine's been quiet, as we're saving money. We just went out to lunch yesterday and then had a nice dinner, bottle of wine and crisps and dips whilst watching X Factor. I'm starting to really like Stacey...

Loves,
