Holiday Haul!

Morning Gorgeous!

So after quite some time I went on a bit of a shopping spree on Friday! I reached breaking point and just splurged and it was so much fun and well overdue! We booked a holiday last week so I have been dying to buy holiday clothes so on Friday after work I took a nip into Penneys, H&M and New Look so here is what I bought. :)

H&M

I absolutely love H&M, everything is so cheap and they have some beautiful Summer bits, lots of patterns, suede and tassels! 

- Bikini - 

Top - €14.99, Bottoms - €9.99

This bikini is to die for - I tried it on last night and it is just FAB! Perfect shape and fits so well. The top is a little skimpy so might not be ideal for anyone with bigger boobs as it wouldn't cover very much thankfully I don't have that problem! :P

Love love love the pattern.

- Sleeveless Shirt -

€9.99

Love the pattern on this too, so Summery and for €9.99 sure how could you go wrong! 

- Dress - 

€12.99

This is just perfect for holidays, so cute and a lovely shape on. Perfect with some flats for the evening - really nice on.

- Layered Cami -

€14.99

I love monochrome and I am picturing this with white jeans and heels for a few evening drinks - so cute!

- Patterned Blouse - 

€14.99

I absolutely adore this blouse - it is so light but seriously what about that pattern?! Amazing! So in love with this! 

New Look

New Look had a massive sale on and I prefer to shop online with Sales as you can filter out all the clothes that are not in your size which is ideal. I do hate flicking through sale rails and finding every size but mine but there were some lovely Summer dresses reduced.

- Jumpsuit - 

€15.00 - Reduced from €24.99

I love this print - very boho! This is very cute on - really light material so perfect for holidays and a bargain at 15 bucks!

- Sandals -

€9.99

I have been looking for sandals for ages and have not been able to find the ones I want although I do need a simple pair for day time on holidays so I got these cuties.

Penneys

I didn't get as much as usual in Penneys as we did not have much time and I need LOADS of time in Penneys - my boyfriend hates when we go in there because we're there for hours!

- Beach Towel -

€8.00

Well you can't go on holidays without a new beach towel right?! AND this has flamingos on it so obviously I was going to buy it!

- Bikini -

€8.00

So I stupidly bought a smaller size in this as the size 8 top looked very big - well I was wrong! It is too small so I'll have to find something else but I really love the style of this so I'll be trying to get something similar. I think everyone needs a black bikini!

- Tee - 

€6.00

Love the print on this tee! Too cute.

- Body Brush -

€3.00

The legs need a good scrubbing to get them nice and smooth before I have to wear a bikini... in public.... in front of people.... oh god....

So apart from getting some white undies in Penneys also that is everything that is in my bags. My first holiday haul - I can probably guarantee there will be another one before we head off as we're not going until September (maybe time for 2 more!)

I hope you all enjoyed it! :)

Happy Shopping

Peachy Keen

Morning Gorgeous!

Happy Sunday - I am having a bit of a lazy day today. I left the house to buy groceries and moisturiser and that is as exciting as it got! I am going to have a girly night and watch The Longest Ride tonight with my bestie - love those nights! :)

So we were invited to the evening do of a wedding on Friday and I ended up working until 9 so it was a bit of a rush job to get ready but we got there and had a fabulous night. So much fun and so nice to catch up with people I haven't seen in ages. 

Normally first thing I would do is go out and buy a new dress for something like this but my no shopping ban is still intact so I found this dress in the back of my wardrobe that I got at Christmas on sale in River Island and it still had the tags on so technically it was still new right?! Its really simple but very cute and perfect for an occasion like this. I loved the peach colour and the little gold pieces just gave it that more of a glam look!

I teamed it with a black and gold handbag, my trusty Public Desire lace ups and a black leather jacket to give it that edgy look. I kept my jewellery simple and wore a dainty layered necklace and midi bracelets and a few simple gold rings.

My makeup I kept relatively simple - nude/gold eyes and a cranberry lip with a good bit of highlighter. This is probably the only decent makeup photo I have because I forgot to get one with rushing out the door (featuring my lovely man friend)

Well that's all for today - a really quick little post! 

Happy Shopping!

My Wish list - First Edition

Morning Gorgeous!

So ya'll know I am trying to stop shopping for a while, I've done nothing but complain about it since I started! Haha! I have so many clothes that I haven't even worn yet (don't tell anyone I said that!) so I am now getting wear out of everything which is definitely a plus. So I have been avoiding shops and sites as best I can so far but yesterday I decided to take a nosey online and around town - for my sins! I could have bought everything, so many beautiful things! 

So I decided to put together a wish list for some Summer inspo for ya'll, I narrowed it down to 2 items out of each place otherwise I would be typing into next week! I hope you enjoy!

- H&M -

Mustard Draped Dress

How amazingly beautiful is this - so Egyptian and luxurious looking. I'm thinking black lace up heels and a leather jacket would look really fab with this. Stunning!

Suede Fringe Boots

These just scream festival! The colour, the suede, the fringe! I love them, gorgeous with a little khaki playsuit at a festival. Beaut!

- River Island -

Pink paisley print shirt dress

I am an absolute sucker for Paisley so I just fell in love with this as soon as I seen it! A bit pricey at €67 but really fab!

Beige print strappy cropped jumpsuit

I adore Jumpsuits and Culottes so I just LOVE this style and the pattern on this one is amazing. Will definitely be investing when I start shopping again!

- New Look - 

Yellow Tile Print Peplum Crop Top

There is something about this that I just love - I'm picturing white jeans and wedges with it. So cute for Summer!

Black Ditsy Floral Print Halter Neck Bikini Top

Black Ditsy Floral Print Tie Side Bikini Bottoms

I love this little bikini - I am really fussy with bikinis, I can never find the right one but I do love this little one! The pattern is uber cute and I love the shape of the top - very flattering.

So that is my very first wish list - no doubt there will be more posts like these as I have a list as long as my arm! What is on your wish list? 

Happy Shopping,
