Riddle Me This




Top - Primark / Shorts - H&M / Coat - H&M / Shoes - Primark / Ring - Miss Selfridge / Bracelet - Rock N Rose

I've spent the last few days sorting through all my clothes & makeup. I'm going to have my blog shop up really soon, hopefully by the end of the weekend. Photographing, editing and uploading all the pictures is taking an absolute age. I've gotten rid of so many clothes that theres actually ample space in my wardrobe for some new things. I got bored yesterday so decided to have a little trip to Manchester, mainly to hit up the massive Primark but also to get my much loved Barburrito & Krispy Kreme treats.

I know I said I wasn't going to buy loads of things in Primark & instead save for something better but I figured if I'm saving for a Canon 600D (or 650D which is coming out next month!) then I can't really afford to save for anything else, including nicer clothes. Its a good job that Primark is overflowing with some lovely tops this month. I bought this one yesterday. I love the colour and I only have one other green top. Polka dots are always a winner with me too. I also bought these brogues yesterday as they were reduced from £14 to £6. Thought they'd go perfectly with the top. My coat is just a simple long boyfriend blazer style but the material is like a thick jersey. Its pretty much exactly what I've been looking for. I got it from H&M about the same time that I bought my other new coat. I think I'm gonna take that one back tomorrow as it really does look far too big on me. Praying that they'll allow me to exchange it if I say it was a Christmas present. That way I can get £85 worth of new Topshop stuff. Wish me luck!

  2. Eee, your top is so sweet, I can't believe it's from Primark, pretty sure I was looking at something similar in Miss Selfridge earlier! Fingers crossed that you can exchange your coat, Topshop have some amazing things in right now (:

    We all need a little Primark in our lives, and it's Primark- so it doesn't realllly count.

    1. aw thank you :) think my hair needs to get completely chopped off, its become a bit of a mare! i did manage to buy about a million tops & jumpers for £60 so I guess its a lot better than buying one thing for that price in topshop. i can't wait for the 650d! its rumoured to have wifi, touchscreen & 24MP, exciting :) xx

  23. One of your best outfits, I think! The green really pops on you. I love the brogues and the slight green of your ring. The black is a great contrast with the green. Loves it.

  24. I love the blouse and brogue combo- but I refuse to shop in Primark myself, because I can't believe they can make stuff that cheap ethically! I need to save up for a decent camera, but with an internship and driving lessons to save for, I think it may have to wait!
