Eeeek! My favourite kind of post! 

Last weekend my mum and I went into town for a little spending spree! I had just been paid so it was the perfect time for a primark haul! 

 

This was the first item I picked up. This was £4 and has a lovely chiffon back with a big loop cutaway! I plan on wearing this to work with leggings or with a black skirt and tights! 

 

I'm an absolute sucker for Primark Pyjamas and these were only £5! I love how cosy and soft they are! 

 

I absolutely fell in love with this cardigan the moment I saw it! It was £14 which is more than I normally pay for a cardigan in Primark but I just had to have it. It is burgundy (my favourite!) and sparkly (another favourite!) with gold and black detailing. I wore it to Uni today and it was warm enough to run from the car in the rain and also cool enough to prevent me overheating in the stuffy classrooms. 

 

Next up is these burgundy leggings. I really liked the quilted panels at the top and I think these will look nice with ugg boots in the winter. They are also a nice thick material which is a bonus! These were £6. 

I then got this lovely sparkly black skirt. I probably won't wear this much but I'm possibly planning on wearing it at Christmas time as it looks very festive! This was £6. It feels quite thin and flimsy though so I'm hoping it will be okay to wear with just tights! 

 

Now on to the accessories! I'm not planning on buying a new winter coat this year so I'm buying some new accessories to go with it. My coat is burgundy tartan and it's bum-length wool coat, So this wooly hat will look awesome with it! And a bargain at only £3. The knitted headband was £1.50. I bought a few of these last year and I never wore them as I thought they looked a bit silly on me. However I've had them on a few times in the last few weeks (mainly to keep my hair out my way) and they look so much better now I've grown my hair a lot longer! 

 

Next, I got these sparkly studded shoes for £4 in the sale. I have to wear black shoes to work so I've been buying lots of patterned black shoes and so far I've not been told off! These are actually very comfy for primark shoes! The pants were £1. Anyone who knows me will know I'm obsessed with anything cat print! I'm definately a self-proclaimed cat lady! So when I saw these I had to get them to add to my cat-clothing collection! 

 

And finally I picked up these hair accessories! I've been wearing my hair down a lot lately but clipping back the front bits as they are very frizzy and NEVER sit right! So i grabbed this set of 2 hair clips for £1. Then I got these 2 hairbands in the sale. The cream one was £1 and the black fake-hair braided one was only 50p! I saw a girl at Uni wearing a similar hairband the other day so I thought I would give them a try! 

So that's everything for this Primark Haul! What's you favourite item? Have you done a primark haul recently? I'd love to see your posts so drop me a comment in the box below! 

New Look Sale Finds!

Lots of shops are beginning to have mid season sales already, and New Look is no exception! 

I've been looking for a few nice tops to wear with leggings/jeggings at uni. I picked up these two tops for just £5 each! 

 

I really love the aztec print just now. The grey one is more fitted and could even be worn as evening wear, dressed up with some heels! And I love the burgundy one purely for the colour! If you've been reading my blog you will know I've been obsessed with this colour recently! 

Have you found any bargains in the new look sale?

Tie Rack A/W 2013!

If you didn't know before, I work for an awesome accessories company called tie rack. This post is all about my pick of the best items in this years autumn/winter collection! (there were far too many pretty things to choose from but I managed to narrow it down to four!)



Serape £34.99

If you don't know what a serape is, then listen up! These amazing items are basically a large shawl but they are honestly so cosy and will keep you warm all winter! The leopard print and fur combination is very on trend for this year! And this one even comes with little arm holes on the side to make this look like an oversized cardigan when wearing it! (another on trend item for this year). I plan to wear this lots and as it gets colder i'll start wearing a long sleeved t-shirt under it to keep me a bit warmer!



Serape £34.99

Because there are so many amazing patterns and colours to choose from in this year's range of serapes, i couldn't just pick one so I also had to get this cute tartan one! Tartan is another print that is going to be massive this winter so I'm really looking forward to wearing this! Keep an eye out for some future posts showing you how to look amazing wearing these!



Pashmina £17.99

I am a big fan of pashminas as they are such a versatile product (I must own one in every colour imaginable!) Tie rack pashminas are a great size for doing so many different things with them! I bought this one as it's a lovely burgundy colour so it will go with all the burgundy items I've been buying lately!



Scarf £19.99

And finally, I just love this scarf! Everything about it is perfect! I've not been able to get a tartan scarf for many years because I'm allergic to wool and I've only ever seen wool ones! But this one is made of acrylic so I know it's not going to irritate my skin. I had this scarf out on a test run to the shops last night and it kept me nice and cosy in the cold breeze! I don't think I will have this scarf off during winter this year! It looks amazing with so many different colours!

That is my top 4 favourite items from Tie Rack's Autumn Winter Collection so far! Look out for more posts about this. I'm sure there are plenty more amazing items waiting to come into stores!

What do you think about these products? How would you wear a serape? I'd love to hear your thoughts!
