Primark, Boux Avenue, Boots, New Look, Bank, Selfridges HAUL!

10:19:00 am

This is my first 'Haul' Post but it was the only way to show you all the lovely goodies I treated myself too:)
Im just Going to jump straight in with Primark. With Primark its annoying because sometimes there is some nice bits in there its just rumaging through the mess they call a shop to find them.  I got some ole faithful leggings at £3 each you cant go wrong and I often find these true to size. The skull top is really lovely and had diamante detail around the eyes, I love a bit of sparkle, this was £5. The collared top was a total find if I dont say so myself, I am in love with this mint green colour and I love the tan it is matched with and for £4.50 I couldnt say no.  My favourite thing I bought was the blazer, I have never worn a blazer before but after seeing a few people wearing them I decided now was the time.  This nude coloured one was only £17 and I liked it because of the cream border and big gold button. It helped that my other half said it was lovely and I should have it:) I always tend to pick up underwear wherever I go and this bra and knickers were such a bargain at £11 for the lot I had to have them, when I got home I tryed the bra on and surprisingly it was a really good fit. Being a 38F I love that primark have started to cater for us ladies wth lovely boobies:)




Boux Avenue has very quickly became my favourite underwear shop, everytime I go shopping I have to buy something even if its just for the cute pink bag and scented rose petals.The first time I went to this shop it had only been open a few days and was outstanding, the customer service was unlike anything I had ever come across, and the fitting rooms made me feel like a princess with the intercom and different lighting options.  This time I only purchased some knickers, but I let my boyfriend choose.  He really surprised me because I thought he would go for the lacy sexy ones but he went for the complete opposite (weirdo) These were 3 for 2 so all 3 were £12 which I find okay pricing for the quality you recieve instore and in the items.

I love Boots Advantage Card points:) I had lots of points to spend so  had to have the nail paints I have been lusting over.  Bourjous 1 second Gel has the new fan brush which means you only have to brush once with one coat and woohooyour ready to go, it really is amazing and I cant wait for them to bring out new shades.  My friend told me about Revlon smell varnishes so I had to see what all the hype was about and oh my days they are so amazing.  The pink I bought smells exactly like grapefruit and the yellow exacly like pineapple, beware nail bitters these will not help you.  I am obsessed with nude just now so as it was 3 for 2 I couldnt resist. I used £23 worth of boots points on these beautys:)


 New Look is a shop I can always rely on for the basics and I have wanted try out the bandeau tops under an oversized vest look for soo long so with the bandeau tops being 2 fo £5 and the vests just £4.99 it was a must. I just hope I can pull this look off.


Selfridges is a shop that if I could have an all expenses payed shopping spree it would be there, I always go to the mulberry bag section and basically drool and tell Adam (Mr Button) that if he ever bought me one I would do anything he wanted for a year,lol.  This time I was feeling a bit ill so bougth loads of old school american sweets it was £15 for all in the picture below, which sounds a lot but how an earth could I pick a favourite.


As you may have seen in my previous post Wedges are the Way Forward I love wedges, as heels are not my friend.  Well I have found another amazing pair at the bargain price of only £19.  These are from Bank. I am finding out that Bank actually make really comfortable wedges so I cant wait to see which new ones they bring out.

My biggest splurge was my beloved GHD straighteners.  Mine broke a while back and I have had to save up in order to purchase a new pair because at £99 these are not cheap but no other heated straightening tool comes close to the quality of GHD. I have had ghd's since I was 12 and will never find any better.  I decided to go for these shiny black orignal styler from Selridges. 



Thats all for my first Haul, What do you think?


Lots of Love

Gemma

    Primark is my favourite shop! I would say 70% of my clothes are from there and I always get compliments on them. I love love LOVE that skull top it just screams summer and festivals and those wedges are such an investment piece you will be able to rock them with cute dresses in the summer and carry them through to winter with a snuggly coat! I've always wanted to try Boux Avenue, which store did you go to hun?
