Aloha! I've made it to day 6 of Blogmas! Woohoo!

Here is my usual round-up of what I've been up to this week!

1 - My Christmas tree is up! I bought some new red berry lights which I love! They are now reduced to clear in Tesco for just £7 so go get some if you love them too!

2 - We've had a fair bit of Snow this week! I much prefer the snow to the horrible wind and rain storms we've also had this week! Today it looks like we might get some sun so I'm going to head out into town to finish my Christmas shopping!

3 - On Thursday we went to watch the Street of Light show which is currently on as part of Edinburgh's Christmas celebrations. Unfortunately the weather caused a technical fault with the lights and it was cancelled. This was the best "Street of Light" picture I could take in it's absence! I was so upset, but they've said they will honour our tickets for a different night so hopefully I'll still get to see it!

4 - Yesterday the weather was just awful as Storm Desmond hit the country. I had my flu jab booked for the morning then I was meeting my mum and auntie to go christmas shopping. Thankfully we picked an indoor shopping centre to go to! The weather was perfect for wearing my new Ralph Lauren jumper that my dad brought me back from Florida, as well as my new velvet leopard print leggings which I grabbed in Tesco's Black Friday sale!

Primark Haul :)

Whoops, I went to Primark again!
I've recently had a lot of time off work as there's been no overtime. I've been going to meet my boyfriend for lunch some days, and his office is near a Primark so it's been hard to resist going in!
So here is the stuff I've picked up this week!

Grey flats £5

It's starting to get warmer and the ugg boots are about to retire for another year so I thought I better get some new flat shoes to avoid being that girl who's still wearing boots in the middle of May! 

Pink flower hair tie £1.50

I thought this was so cute! I think I'm going to use it to jazz up my hair when it's in a bun.

Pack of Scrunchies £1

White crystal belt £3

Remember when everyone wore their hair in scrunchie, then it became a bit Vicky Pollard? I need something to keep my hair back when I'm exercising and the hair elastics just weren't cutting it so I'm hoping these will work. Also I've had my eye on this sparkly belt for ages and I finally bought it. It looks like it cost so much more than £3! Can't wait to use this! 

Black Baseball style tee £4

I've seen this tee on so many bloggers and I just love it! I bought this a few sizes bigger than I would normally buy coz I want it to be baggy. It looks really nice on! 

Pink Leopard Shorts £3

I am not normally a shorts person because I hate my thighs but there are surprisingly flattering. I bought these for my holiday just so I had something to wear during the day, to go to the beach, pool etc. I might get a few different patterns and colours of these since I like them on. 

White swirl print kaftan £8

This kaftan is gorgeous! It is so flattering with the drawstring waist! I can't wait for my holiday now so I can wear this! It comes in coral and black too. I think I might get another colour! 

Yellow Baseball style tee £4

Because I loved the black version so much I bought this yellow one too! I've always thought yellow really suits me as I have such dark eyes and hair! I wore this top yesterday and it felt nice and fresh for a lovely spring day! 

So that's my little Primark haul from this week! What have you been buying from Primark lately? I'd love to see your haul's so leave links to your blog in the comment box below!

TheSundayPost #3

Hello Everyone! Hope you've had a lovely week! Things have been pretty quiet with me this week again, with work and uni taking over once again! I did get up to a few things though!
On Tuesday, my partner and I went to Glasgow for a small shopping trip!

It was our first day off together in about 4 weeks so it was lovely to spend some time together! You can find my haul post from that day here.

So, apart from Tuesday this week has been pretty boring. I watched lion king for the 10 millionth time (it's my favourite film). The picture in the middle made me laugh for well over an hour on monday morning. Saddo I know! 

I took my granny to get her hair cut on wednesday and we saw the infamous Edinburgh tram on the move in the city centre for the first time! 

The weekend revolved around early starts at work, of course! 

And the final picture is me and my boy, smudge! I'm going to do a little post about him soon. He's very special to me! This is his new favourite place to sleep, around my neck! 

So that is all that I've been up to this week, really! 

I'll leave you all with this funny picture I saw on twitter! 

Hehehehe! This made me giggle! Have a lovely Monday everyone! And don't forget my giveaway ends tomorrow at midnight! You can enter HERE if you haven't already done so!

Forever 21, Primark and Lush Haul

Hey guys! The other half and I finally had a day off together today so we took a little trip through to Glasgow for some shopping! I wasn't planning on spending much money but that plan didn't last long at all!

Forever 21
We don't have a forever 21 in Edinburgh so whenever I'm in Glasgow I always spend a fortune in here!

Top £7.95

I'd seen this cute cat print top online a few days ago and I was desperate to have it so I was delighted the Glasgow store had it in my size! If you read my blog regularly you will know I love anything cat related so I obviously am in love with this! 

Leggings- £4

These cute spot leggings were only £4! I don't have spotty leggings already and I'm really loving the black and white monochrome trend right now so I'm sure I will get plenty wear out of these! 

Boots £14.99, Cardigan £13.99 (On BOGOF promotion)

Can we all just take a moment to appreciate how amazing this deal is?! I've been looking for a pair of black, heeled cowgirl boots for ageeees! I couldn't believe it when I spotted these! They are perfect! They only had one pair left which was my size and they even fit over my chunky calves! So happy! 

And I'm sure I'll use the cardigan lots too especially with it being black and white haha! 

Cardigan £7

I was very impressed with the price of Forever 21's basic cardigans. They feel like great quality and are so soft! I picked up this baby pink one as I'm really loving the colour just now! 

Primark

Dress £10

Only one purchase from Primark today (shocker I know!) This cute tartan dress is the same fit as the red and blue one I bought in december! I've worn that one loads so I know this one will look great too! 

Lush

Golden Egg £3

Spacegirl £2.25

Fluffy Egg £2.95

The Brightside £4.50

Of course, the day wouldn't be complete without a little trip to lush! They have all their easter stock in now which led to me getting very excited in the shop! I spent ages chatting away to the sales girl, which led to the other half getting bored and waiting outside for me! Anyway I settled on these four products. I can't wait to try these out! I'm going for a bath straight after I've finished this post just so I can use one of these! If you get a chance, definitely go check out Lush's new stock!

So that was my rather large haul from today! Hope you enjoyed reading this. Don't forget I've got a little giveaway going on right now where you could win 5 yankee candle votives! You can enter that HERE! :) xx
