AX Circus goodie bag from etailPR


Sorry for the lack of activity on this page for the last few weeks but once again exam revision has taken over and its been pretty hard to escape it. Hope your revision is going well if you starting your exams soon!
 
I broke my 'no blogging until exams are well and truly over' rule to tell you about the amazing competition i won on the Etail PR page a few weeks ago....
 

 
 
I couldn't believe how many amazing items were in the bag when i opened it, i was definitely not expecting this much ! There a few food items missing like a packet of Popchips (which were delicious) as i devoured them when i came home from work before i could take a picture , oops
 
I can't wait to try the cleansing water or wear the crown and glory hair bow which is absolutely beautiful !
 
Thank you etailPR
 
See you after my exams

There's a story in which my eyes shut


 
 

 
 
Top - New Look
Trousers - Primark
Jacket - Dorothy Perkins
Shoes - Matalan

I can't believe the Easter break from school is almost over! I don't want it to end mainly because i know when I get back to 6th form hardcore revision is going to have to start for my final exams in June !

I wore this outfit a few weeks ago when we all went out for food for my friends 18th ! My vest top kind of ruined the effect of the lace cross on the vest which i didn't realise until later but oh well , i didn't really have another option. I love these trousers, i think they might have kick started my obsession with patterned trousers, oops.  

I think I might just keep on writing this post forever so I don't have to restart doing my huge pile of homework which is somehow growing, I'm not really sure how ?

How has your week been?

Thank you for reading

Primark SS13 Collection...Take 2

Hope you all don't mind seeing another Primark related post but i couldn't stop myself when i saw these lookbook pictures!
 
 
 
The latest look book focuses more on the Bohemian and Californian looks of the spring, summer and less on the sports luxe side although their is a hint of that mixed in their. There are so many gorgeous pieces in this collection, iv got my eye on those blue floral dungarees! Primarks collections just keep getting better and better and i cant wait to see if these pieces look as good in person. I often seem to have that trouble in primark where i see something i really like in a picture but when i see it in store it is not what i expected and looks really cheap and tacky , but its been happening less and less lately so i cant complain.
 
 
I am going to hunt down this monochrome crop top ! Iv been looking at the polka dot topshop one for a while but i think i prefer this one even more with the flower print plus its only £8!!!! I came so close to buying one of the topshop lace crop tops the other day and i am so glad i dint succumb in the end with the primark version looking identical and guess how much it is...
£4! Know that is a bargain.
I'm not in the slightest body confident so i wouldn't be showing to much belly but with something high waisted with a tiny bit of skin showing or even under a pinafore or dungarees i think they would 
 look quite cute.
 
What do you think of the latest releases?

We will run and scream, You will dance with me



 
Black and white jumper - Internationale
Green jumper - Topshop
Coat - Primark
Scarf - Tesco
Bracelet - Miss Selfridge
Shoes - River Island
 
No , not a very exciting outfit but it's just a nice simple outfit to throw on if I'm just going out for a few hours and want something i feel comfortable in !
 
I have worn this black and white jumper way too much since i bought it last year. It is way too comfy and i think i wear it way too much, to the point where when i wear it there's a little voice in the back of my head going "Really? You are wearing that jumper again"
 
With all this hooo ha over GFC and google reader closing down , i have started to try and get used to using my bloglovin account. I didn't know what was happening when i started getting followers on bloglovin or when i came on blogger after not being on for the day and saw the panic !
 
Here is the link to my bloglovin page

Primark SS13 Collection

How bizarre is the weather at the moment,
Last week I thought Spring was on its way as we had a glimpse of blue sunny skies and i left my winter woollies behind when leaving the house....Fast forward a week and I'm staring at falling snow out the window and back to layering up before i venture outside.





The majority of the Primark Look Book focuses on the Spots Lux trend , which I can't see myself wearing personally but I love the individual pieces used in the looks.
How cute is the yellow gingham dress, it reminds me of the ones I used to wear in primary school, all i would need is the matching socks and scrunchy. This collection looks like it has everything needed to get you through the spring and summer..... Monochrome, high tops, pretty summer dresses and neon accessories! 

 
Iv been after a piece of Tapestry print clothing for ages and this skirt is so cute and at a good price as well! I have no idea where i would wear the lace maxi dress but it is too pretty, It looks like you should be running through an enchanted forest bare foot when wearing it....
 
 
Lately a lot of people have been complaining that Primark's prices have gone up to much but when you think about how much you would pay for some of these pieces in places like Topshop, Miss Selfridge and River island they are still relatively cheap ! Primark have really stepped up their game and their collections seem to be constantly improving.

I cant remember the last time i went into primark and had a good long look at what they have in stock or had a good long shopping spree in their but one is definitely on the cards!
 
What is your favourite piece of the SS primark collection?
 
Thank you for reading
