Primark pieces..

Okay so as i said not too long ago, i started my christmas shopping but actually bought myself some bits.

Primark is by far my favourite shop, it has everything for such good prices but over the past year or so, their prices have definitely crept their way up for no reason what so ever and i am not a happy bunny. I remember the days when you could buy a pretty knitted jumper for £5, perfect pj sets for no more than £4 and so on and i cant ever seem tot find clothes for less than £8 now and that's just for a simple blouse or plain jumper..

But, rant aside, i love finding cheap beauty bits or jewellery and i get so excited seeing a sale rack with a '£5' sign on it (being the cheapskate i am). I never seem to buy lots of things in one trip to primark, i get bits here and there and although its only 3 things, i thought it would be nice to share with you what i have been enjoying lately from the wonderland itself...

 

The first thing i bought was this leopard/cheetah print short sleeved blouse from £12 to £5! It has pretty gold button at the front and on the sleeves and black shoulders and its just so pretty.

Next was this 4 pack of nail varnishes which consist of purple, bright pink, mint green and baby blue which were only £2. I tried these on my nails a few weeks back and they lasted so well and only needed 2 coats which isn't at all bad considering they are primark! 

 

And last but not least, when i got to the check out of one of my trips to primark, my mum spotted this product which is Argan Oil. It states that it is a healing shine hair treatment and cost around £2.50. I used it on my hair 2 nights ago; washed my hair, blow dried it and out a small amount through the ends of my hairs (avoiding roots as the instructions say) and then straightened it as i usually would. I must admit, my hair has been feeling really dry and horrible lately but after using this i actually felt a difference, it looks healthier and feels slightly more soft, and im hoping after a few more drops of this my hair will be back to its natural soft self in no time. I would definitely recommend this oil if your hair feels dry or frizzed at the ends from straighteners and blow dryers etc.

Hope you have all had a good week and enjoyed halloween?! Also, have any of you found anything worth browsing for in primark lately? One last thing (i seem to ramble a lot lately, i know) BUT, i won a competition last night thanks to Helen ! A Jenny Colgan book which i cannot wait to read eeek!!

Work first blog second

Hi guys!
Just want to apologise for not posting lately, i've had sooo much work to do and then my internet got cut off! But we got a new package so i should be back to posting on a regular basis. Since i''ve been out of the blogger world i've had so many post ideas and now its to late because they dont fit in with the time etc if that makes any sense at all.

Like i said, i have had so much work to do from school and i am so glad tomorrow is the last day before half term! I have had quite an eventful week or so (to the norm of boring nothing in my day to day life), I started my christmas shopping last week but ended up getting myself a few bits, i also went to the theatre to see 'We will rock you' last night in London and it was aaamazing! I actually can't explain how great it was, it makes me feel good just thinking about it and it left everybody buzzing, would definitely recommend!

Also, my friend is doing a hair & beauty course at A Level and as her assessment/exam/thing she has to style someone to walk down a catwalk in school and guess who's her model.. ME! haha, im not exactly the modelling type (although when i had my tarot cards read, the woman got a feeling that i would go into the modelling industry... fat chance!) but anyway, the theme was seasons and we got 'Spring'. She has to do my hair, makeup, nails, design my outfit and chose music and i was just wondering if any of you have any ideas of costumes or anything then please let me know as it would be a BIG help.

Anyways, that's my chit chat over and an update of what i've been up to. Have any of you been up to anything exiting?

p.s; its almost halloween, whats everyone dressing up as?! AND ONLY 2 MONTHS UNTIL CHRISTMAS!!!!
