Today was payday and I decided to treat myself to a few things. I did quite a few hours of overtime last month so could afford to have a mini splurge. I spent a small fortune in boots, I really dont know how. I didn't even get that much! I finally invested in a pink lipstick by Barry M. I am still not sure it suits me but I am going to try it on with an outfit rather than PJs! I brought myself a pretty glittery nail varnish, also Barry M. It was two for £5 so I got one for my giveaway once I reach 100 followers. Not long now! The rest were just essentials that I had run out of!
I made a quick detour to Primark and again spent a small fortune. It was an accident honest! I had been eyeing this satchal up for ages and decided just to take the plunge, I think it will be great for the summer. Such a lovely colour! I stocked up on some tights that I had laddered, looking forward to makeing some outfits with these. Finally I saw two pretty rings that I needed to add to my collection!
I brought some spotted palazzo trousers. Onl £14, such a bargain! I cannot remeber the last time I have ever brought trousers. I managed to fit in these and think they draw much unwanted attention to my hips. But I have decided to listen to my parents who say they look nice so I am keeping them. I think im going to pair them with a nice white vest top and white wedges. My mum reckons I should wear flats but im not too sure.
I am umming and ahhhing about this dress. I only had time to go into one charity shop this morning and brought this dress and the skirt below. Its got a little hole in the elasticated waistband but this can be easily sewn up. It has a huge spilt up the back and my bum can be seen. Not a pretty sight. I dont know wether to sew it up, anyone know if this lasts or will I have to keep doing it? Or if I should put it on ebay? I do really like the dress and it would be perfect if it did not have the spilt. My fault for not checking it over properly!
Finally my lovely skirt! Its so summery and I can see myself come June in white esperdrilles and a white vest top sunning myself in the park! It is quite high waisted which isn't too much of a problem. Just means I won't be able to have a huge dinner!
I am shattered, just come in from a 1-9 shift and have to be back in again for 7am. The joy. I think I am going to sleep like a baby tonight.Hope everyone is well!
Love the Satchel!! Nice buys :) xx

Thank goodness for payday, i went on a bit of a spree and spent way to much, there are so many pretty things about at the moment.
ReplyDeleteI think the palazzos would look great with wedges or flats :)
Ive been doing 9-6 all week and fell asleep shortly after getting home, glad im not in til 11, feel sorry for everyone whos starting at 7, though not quite as bad as 5am at the end of seasons.
