Harvey Nichols Haul inc. Jeffery Campbell Martinis

Clockwise from left: Coat £25 Primark, Bobble Bottle : £10.95, Jeffery Campbell Martini flats : £105, Louise Young : LY24 £11 & LY04 £17 All Harvey Nichols

Picked up a few bits I had my eye on for a while including this jacket with leather sleeves from Primark. Bit of a dupe for the Zara one which has now sold out but it was cheap and chearful at £25 and will see me through the autumn. 
I needed a decent pair of flats for work, basically some that weren't going to wear out two months down the line (ahem Topshop) So went for the Jeffery Campbell Martini studded flats in Black w/ silver studs. Winter is most definitely on the way which is why I'm not wearing these outside in the rain. I have my little wellies to walk to work in instead :)
Everyone needs a Bobble bottle! my last one sadly melted when Sam poured boiling water on it! GRRR.  I no longer have to buy bottled water when out and about, It encourages my to get my 2 litres a day and call me a princess, but I can't stand tap water! So this little guy gets a massive thumbs up from me. 
Lastly I needed a decent blusher and eyeliner brush, having being disappointed with the eyeliner brush in the Real Techniques kit (way too thick & chunky) I picked up the super fine Louise Young LY24 for use with gel eyeliner and the LY04 which is the perfect size for blush. 
What have you been buying recently?

Cookies and Creme






Mittens: Market stall    Duffle coat: Next    Bag: H&M
Peter pan collar top: Primark    Blazer: H&M
Skirt: Topshop    Boots: Topshop Allegra's    Watch: Swatch

Being a cold day today,  I naturally had to wear my racoon mittens. Today was spent having a lie in, pottering around town buying stuff to make cupcakes (more on that later) and tidying the flat. not massively exciting but hey ho. 
As you can probably notice I have had my hair coloured! I got a bit bored of the blonde and it had damaged the ends of my hair so much I was fed up of the frizz and general bad condition of it.
so a trip to Salon Services and an hour or so later I have dark hair again, and I love it! (thanks Mama) She also chopped off a good half an inch off the bottom to get rid of the really broken ends.

I also got my eyebrows sorted hurrah! All that patience growing them out for the last 4 months has certainly paid off for these new HD brows - blogpost to come soon. 

Hope everyone is having a nice weekend, Im off to bake some primrose bakery cookies and cream cupcakes from their new ipad app!

black and white.



dress: asos.com    belt: primark    watch: primark men's










I have been buying lots of winter clothes recently which is great for my wardrobe, not so great for my bank balance. I found this chiffon dress in the asos sale and I really love the lace collar detail and long sleeves. It was originally £35 but I paid just £17.50!
The new look shoes are going to be my everyday black shoe as they are so comfy and give me the extra hight I need, being a wedge they are a lot easier to get around on than my topshop allegra's, which have been reserved for short walks and nights out only!

shuffle.


If there's one thing I hate about Bristol, It's the wind. Cycling to uni against 25 mph winds today was not fun. lets just say I left the house with lovely straight hair and turned up looking a little less than glamourous. Got loads of work to catch up on tonight, huff :(

scarf: H&M    jacket: Primark    dress: H&M    boots: Primark

so chuffed with these boots I found in Primark for £25! They look and feel expensive and make me feel so tall (amazing feeling when your so short!)
