When I saw this beautiful ring was on sale for just £4.50 it instantly went into my shopping bag. The coral and rose gold colours look so pretty together and I thought it would be perfect for spring and summer this year. I bought it in the medium size to fit my ring finger as I do in all other rings but this runs a tiny bit smaller than usual. I really couldn’t be bothered to exchange it for a larger size, which may have been too large anyway, so I did a little bit of DIY and made it a tad smaller so it fits nicely on my little finger instead. I really love it.
As soon as I saw this necklace I had to make it mine. Whenever I see things I really love I’ve learned to just buy them asap.
Lastly when I saw this in the beauty sale section I couldn’t believe my luck because I had been eyeing this up for a long time ever since I saw Bubblegarm’s post. At full price these New Cid i-glow compact shimmer powders are round £23 which is a bit pricey for me, but when I saw this on sale for £14 I couldn’t resist. I got the shade Coral Crush because I’m on a major peach/coral make up kick at the moment and I absolutely adore this blush. I think it’ll quickly be up there with some of my all time favourites. Not only does it look gorgeous in the pan, it gives a beautiful glow to the cheek, which I’m sure you’ll see in a make up of the day post very soon! I love it!
My mum and I popped into Primark yesterday and I must admit, I was a little disappointed in the clothes there at the moment. None of the dresses really caught my eye but surprisingly I didn’t come out empty handed!
To be honest, I am not a flip-flop person at all. I really envy those few people who can walk silently in flip-flops because I am definitely not one of those people. When I walk in flip-flops it sounds like there are a million horses walking behind me and I find the noise so incredibly annoying. However when I saw these I just had to have them because they have tiny little anchor and boat charms on them. They were only £2.50 and I think they’re worth that just for the cuteness factor alone.
After that flip flop find I didn’t think I’d find anything else quite as cute until I saw these beauties and honestly, how could leave the store without purchasing these? They are so far beyond adorable it’s ridiculous and if I were a pair of shoes, I’d quite like to be this pair please! For only £6 they quickly found their way into my basket and I was a very happy Jennie indeed. I am very easily amused!
Lastly here is my final Primark purchase incorporated into an outfit of the day…well, kind of! Today is Saturday and I am currently supposed to be writing an essay instead of taking pictures and writing up a blog post, but the latter is FAR more fun and interesting than a boring essay. The only way to really photograph this dressing gown was to wear it & I thought it best to spare you from seeing my makeup-less face. Trust me, it’s for your own good! I found this on a sale table and thought it was so adorable. The little penguins have Santa hats on so this must be left over from Christmas time but I don’t remember seeing them then because I totally would have bought one. But I have one now & I got this for only £3! Hello bargain!
Have you bought any gems from ASOS or Primark lately?
