Tottenham Court Road Primark Haul – April 2014
I haven’t done a big Primark haul in what feel like ages. So whilst I was in London last week I couldn’t resist going into one of their stores. Here is what I picked up.
Floral Shirt
I love the bright floral print on this shirt and I can already tell I will get a lot of wear out of this. £12
Disney Tops
Primark keep bringing out the best Disney tops and these two are no exception, the lion king is one of my favourite ones I now own, they are such a bargain at just £6 each.
Pink Flower Cami Top
It was the cute flower detailing on this top that caught my attention, perfect for summer. £8
Boyfriends Style Tops
I think these look much nicer on than on a hanger! I love these boyfriend style tops I think they look great with a pair of skinny jeans and a statement necklace. I hope these are made in some more colours for only £3.50 each.
High Waisted Shorts
I have seen a few bloggers post pictures of these on and always thought they look great so bought a pair for myself to try. £10
Disney Make-up Bag
At only £3 I couldn’t think of a reason not to pick this up.
High Waisted Bikini Bottoms
I saw these posted on Primarks Instagram a little while ago and have been waiting to get my hands on these. I was actually sitting on the floor in the shop to rummage through the mess to try and find these in my size!
Limited Edition Statement Necklaces
The Limited Edition pieces that Primark produce are always on point and I couldn’t help but pick these pieces up. They are more expensive at £8 but they are still a lot cheaper than places like New Look & Topshop.
Limited Edition Belts
These are both so pretty, I’m not sure what I will wear them with yet but I know they are pieces that will stay in my wardrobe for a long time. Top belt £7 bottom belt £5.
Colour Your Hair Chalk
I have no idea if these will be any good but i had to buy them to try. You get two different colours in a pack for only £4
Have you been to Primark lately? If so what did you pick up?
Outfit of the Day – Dad’s Birthday Meal
I’m really loving bright colours for Spring/Summer!
Dress – Primark
Necklace – Primark Limited Edition
Bag – Matalan
Shoes – Boohoo
Matalan Haul
Matalan have had some really nice things in for SS14 & here is what I managed to pick up.
Midi Skirt
This skirt caught my attention straight away, I love the colours of it and the clear strip at the bottom. I’m not sure how I will wear this yet but I think it will be a great piece for summer. Cost £18
Slogan Tee’s
There was a few diffrent types of slogan tees but these two were my favourite. At only £6 each they are a bargain!
High waisted Trouser
These are more of a thick leggings than trousers. I have worn these a few times already. They are great to style for everyday or a evening out. I’m sure these will be up in an OOTD post soon. Cost £16
Floral Clutch Bag
I’m a sucker for a nice handbag and I couldn’t resist this one. The look of it is a vintage worn out bag which I love. It is a good size so could be used during the day also. I’m not a massive fan of the gold chain but luckily this is removable. Cost £15
Pink Tumbler
I happened to see this when I was strolling around the store, my NYC one is getting a little old now so for £3 I treated myself to a new one. They also have this in a few diffrent colours.
Heart Basket
There was lots of cute heart pieces in the home section, I picked up this for a bargain price of £4. I am planning on using this to store all my samples and make-up I am yet to try.
Have you been into Matalan recently if so what did you pick up?

Pretty In Pink Mini Primark Haul
It’s that time of year where even though the weather is crap all are clothing stores start stocking spring/summer clothing.
Primark as always seems to be having some great things in for this season. So I couldn’t help picking up a couple of bits. If you didn’t gather by the name, all the pieces I bought are pink.
Pink Flowery Smock Dress
I tried this dress on in store and absolutely loved the style of this on. I can already tell this dress is going to get a lot of wear from me. I might start to wear it soon and just wear some thick tights and boots. This dress was a bargain at only £8 I really hope they bring out some different designs in this style.
Pink Midi Skirt
It was the colour of this skirt the drew me to it. I think I will be saving this till the weather is a little bit warmer, and plan on wearing this with a black or white top tucked inside. I haven’t ever worn a skirt in this style before so if you have any hints on how I should style it please let me know. Cost £12
Minnie Mouse Make-up Bag
I saw this and instantly thought how cute it was. At only £3 I had to buy it. You can never have enough make-up bags right?
Have you got any bargains in Primark recently?

What I got for Christmas – 2013
I love seeing and reading what other people got for Christmas, these are my favourite post to read this time of the year.
Here is a peak at some of the gifts I received.
Pink coat
I don’t own a pink coat and have been after one for a while. So was super happy to find this gorgeous shade of coat under my tree this year. I’m looking forward to wearing it to brighten the grey winter months ahead.
Minnie Mouse onesie & Bambi PJs
I love anything Disney and Christmas is always the perfect time to get new sleepwear.
Gift Sets
What girl doesn’t love a good gift set!
Dove Wonderful You, Eight Hour Cream Essential kit and St. Tropez.
I love reading, so a book is always a great gift for me. All 3 of these books were on my wish list, so were very happily received.
I saw this bee purse months ago in a magazine and was very excited to have received it. Usually once I find something in a magazine I like, I can never find it online in stock or in store! (I’m going to change my cards and everything over as soon as I have finished this post.)
And the Thornton’s chocolate snowman looks delicious!
Beauty
These next pieces are all beauty related and I’m sure I will be doing some more posts on them throughout the new year.
‘A scent’ by issey miyake. I have never tried ‘a scent’ by issey before so super excited to try this.
‘Believe’ and ‘Cosmic Radiance’ Britney Spears perfumes. I’m a big Britney fan and her perfumes are my favourite as they have such a great scent.
Givenchy & Clinique mascara, both products I have never tried so super excited to give these a test. Lookout for review to follow.
Urban Decay Feminine Palette & Hello Flawless Powder.
Too Faced Sweethearts blush and Mac Mineralize blush.
Mac 239 & 217 Brushes.
Estee Lauder DayWear & a Stylfile
I was extremely lucky this year! And can’t wait to get trying out all my new products and using all my new things.
