shopping is cheaper than a psychiatrist

Since payday I've been pretty much non-stop purchasing! Going to London really didn't help the matter.. most of what is pictured here was bought there :) 

PRIMARK 
Not sure the dress is very 'me' but will probably toughen it up a bit, do love it though! The shirt is awesome and looks and feels a tad more expensive than it was! 

TOPSHOP



LOVE both of these things.. was actually hoping to find this dress in the dark red colour, but didn't! It literally fell out of the sale rail into my hands... I didn't even see it lol.. So I knew I had to buy it! What I love about velvet is the how theres lots of different shades of colour depending on where the light hits, weirdly though, thats what I used to hate about velvet! The shorts were featured in my latest Wish List and they are perfect.. have picked them up many a time in Topshop but always told myself I didn't need any more shorts!  Glad I finally got them! 

URBAN OUTFITTERS


This picture does not do this jacket justice! I think it will be perfect in spring/summer when you just need a little cover up, its very lightweight! I love that it's aztec and pastely type colours (more-so in real life than on this pic) so will be bang on trend for S/S! This was a massive bargain, reduced from £40 to £20 and then when I got to the till it was £10 (£9 with NUS woohoo)! 

TRAFFIC PEOPLE


The design of this bag has me written all over it.. I could not leave it in the shop! The only thing is I'm really not fussed on the shape of the bag.. it's one of them shoulder bags that tuck right up under your armpit! Remind me of bags I used to use when I was like 12! I'm gonna buy a long silver chain to make it into an across body bag.. 

SPITALFIELDS MARKET 


Well, when I went to spitalfields I was under the impression that markets start early.. but no everywhere around there doesn't open till like 11am! So there wasn't much to look at, but I aim to go there again on a Sunday in summertime.. I'm sure it is amazing then! I bought this beautiful headband, been lusting over one for a while, but didn't think it would suit me.. This one is so perfect, it feels like real fur it's so so soooo soft! It is faux though :) It's been so cold up here in the valleys the last couple of days, so I'm sure I'll get good use out of this!

NEVER FULLY DRESSED


This was a monster of a bargain.. I bought it over at NFD on Asos Marketplace on sale for £16 reduced from about £54! The blue is so vibrant in real life.. my camera does the colour no justice at all! Here's the link to this beautiful shirt! Ahh... while getting the link I've realised the shirt has gone back up to full price :( I feel extra lucky now though haha! 

Sooo, lovely people that's what I've been buying! Oh, and I'm well chuffed to say that I have reached 300 followers... YAY! Thank you all, another little mile-stone for me and my little blog!

Want Want Want...

I haven't done a want list in ages, probably because the shops aren't really wowing me at the moment... Which is kinda of a good thing as I don't have any money to spend! BUT... There are obviously a few things that I wouldn't mind owning... 





Urban Outfitters have some really beautiful pieces this year.. I've bought a cardi that I'm sure you'll see more of on this blog and it is really gorgeous! Wore it yesterday and had so many compliments! Also I really want the fringed socks which are so original! (I could probably make them myself mind!). I'm really disappointed in Topshop's knitwear this year... Normally they have me lusting over every knitted item that they produce! But nothing has really got me going this year... they must have put all their money into making shoes, as the choice of shoes have been freaking amazing! River Island have really upped their game this season, they have produced some gorgeous coats and knitwear and have got me looking at their website more and more! Finally, All Saints... my ultimate lust shop.. I do treat myself to their clothing on the rare occasion but never have a big spree there as the prices are a little expensive.. The detail that goes into their products is second to none! Absolutely beautiful.. NEED THAT JUMPER!

In other news.. I am completely depressed that Wales lost in the rugby! If you are French I now hate you (haha I'm joking) But ALAIN ROLLANDS (the ref) if you ever happen to stumble on to this post I just want you to know that you are a complete and utter TWAT :) 

Right I shall Love you and Leave you!
