Hey guys!
So these are some of my recent purchases. Some I got
when I went to Scotland and a lot of stuff I picked up post Christmas!
The first four things are all from Primark. I needed a
new hat and scarf and they had a great selection in Primark, especially lots of
nice scarves! I’ve already worn this one lots and although I haven’t worn the
hat that much I still love it and think it’s really cute.
Harry Potter socks woo! I gave a pair to my brother, a
pair to my sister, a pair to my friend and kept one pair for myself. Mine are
Gryffindor incase you’re wondering. Technically I’m Ravenclaw but I gave those
to my sister so I’m happy to settle for the lion.
This top is simple but I really like it, and was
looking for one like it for a while. It goes really well with black or white
jeans. Love that monochrome!
I recently turned 18 and had a New Year’s Eve
celebration so of course I needed an outfit for the night! I got this dress in
a shop in Love Lisa in Cork. I thought the sparkles were pretty appropriate for
the night and I got a lot of compliments so was pretty happy with my choice!
I had wanted a pair of black heels for ages and so
decided to get some to go with the dress. I got this pair in the sales in New
Look and I think they’re the perfect height because I’m quite small so I need a
few extra inches yet they’re not impossible to walk in!
I thought that I might do a sparkle overload with this
clutch but it was only 3euro in Penneys (Primark) so how could I resist?
I got a Waterstones voucher for Christmas and so
bought these 3 books. I of course had to get Dan and Phil’s book because I love
them and felt like I needed the book in my life. I also got these 2 fiction
books which I hadn’t previously heard anything about but just picked up because
I thought they sounded good. The lady at the counter told me that … is a great
read so that’s positive!
For a while now I have been wanting a black leather
bag. I got this one in Penneys and even though I think it’s a little plain I’m
happy with my purchase. I know I’ll definitely use it lots because I have
another small rucksack type bag and I use it all the time (except it’s broken
now!)
I had heard good things about the Revlon Colourstay foundation and as I had a Boots voucher decided to treat myself. However the next time I went in they had a 2 for 20euro on Revlon face products offer so I couldnt resist getting another, plus I purchased the Revlon photo ready primer. They're both technically the Sandy Beige shade but one is for oily/combinatin skin and the other is for dry.
Also from Boots, I got this set of body sprays. The vanilla one was the thing that made me buy it because I love vanilla scented candle and who wouldn't want to smell like a candle? But actually I think the strawberry scent is my favourite because it's quite sweet.
Last but not least, this pair of black high waisted
jeans. They’re another thing I can tick off my wishlist. They’re the ‘Jamie’
jeans from TopShop, they were pretty expensive but hopefully they’ll be worth
it because I have another pair of black jeans which I wear loads plus I’m
already thinking of lots of things I can pair them with!
I don’t know about you but I would say I’ve been
pretty successful with shopping in the last few weeks. A lot of these things I
have wanted for ages and also I don’t know when I’ll next be able to go
shopping due to upcoming exams so this lot should keep me going for a good
while!
