Haul | Jumpers All Year

Primark jumpers £10 each 
Zara jumpers £9.99 each 

Sorry I haven't posted anything in the last couple of weeks but I've been really busy and had loads of work to do. As you know, I am in my last year of university and it's very demanding, not to mention, super stressful! Anyway, I'm hoping to get back in the routine of things especially as it's Easter soon which also means I can take a bit of a breather. 

Anyway, here's an overdue haul but oh well! Just a load of jumpers, even though it's already Spring. Aha! To be fair, it's still pretty cold out. The first two were from Primark, which you may be familiar with as I featured the royal blue jumper in this outfit post and the black fluffy one has pretty much been on everyone's blog. The last two are from Zara and I love how light and airy these are. They are the perfect lightweight jumpers to wear either on their own with highwaisted trousers or can be layered with dresses and skirts. The yellow one is so pretty! Let me know if you wear jumpers all year round too! x

Haul | Rings and Muted Nails

Internacionale top £9 (sale)
Primark beanie £2 | statement rings £4 | midi rings £1.50
Topshop rings 2.50 each (sale) | midi rings £6.50 | nail polishes £5 each

Yey for another haul and the fact that it's getting brighter and warmer! Here's a haul full of rings and nail polishes but first, I got a grey quilted top from Internacionale as well as a black beanie from Primark. Also from Primark I got two sets of rings — the first set was of silver rings with eagle, claw and leaf designs and the other was a set of golden midi rings. From Topshop I got another set of midi rings then a couple more rings that were both on sale as well as three nail polishes in a very pale blue, grey-purple and muted green. Topshop nails are so good and I really want to buy all the colours they have, definitely stocking up on brighter ones next time! x

Haul | Is it summer yet?

Monki jumper £8 (sale) | lace bra £12
H&M skull dress £12.99 | grey dress £7.99 | skirt £7.99
New Look dress £14.99
Primark swallow dress £13

Okay, I know I said I'm not quite prepared to part with my winter wardrobe yet but who knows, maybe deep down I actually am. Aha! Anyway, here's a haul that features mostly spring and summer appropriate items. I got a couple of things from Monki, one's a really snuggly oversized jumper and the other's a lace triangle bra which will be perfect underneath loose tops when the weather's nicer. From H&M, I got a couple of dresses and an orange skater skirt. I always get sucked in by this colour, I'm pretty sure I have three things in bright neon orange! Then from New Look, I just got this simple grey speckled dress and at Primark, I picked up this b&w swallow printed dress. Again pretty much everything's monochrome apart from one really bright piece but oh well, baby steps right? x

Haul | Primark and Topshop

Primark grey dress £8 | printed dress £5 | sunglasses £2.50 each
Topshop jumper £12 | chain necklace £10

More monochrome because that's all I seem to wear nowadays! From Primark I bought two dresses, one in grey with black sleeves and the other is a b&w printed skater dress. I got them because they're really nice and easy to chuck on, especially during lazy days. Two pairs of sunglasses also caught my eye so I decided to get those since they only cost £2.50 each. Then from Topshop I bought this white jumper as well as this matte black chain necklace as I knew they were substantial basics I'd wear all the time. Not a lot but I have a few more hauls lined up which I'll be posting in the next week or so. Anyway, I hope your all having a great week so far! x

Haul | Cheap Finds at Primark

Primark cap £4 | sunglasses £2 | striped leggings £6 | printed trousers £9 | white crop top £3 | black crop top £2.50
boyfriend crop tops £3 each | striped shirt £10 | printed crop top £8 | cardigan £12 | bomber jacket £7 (sale) | 
playsuit £5 | aztec print dress £10

Another massive Primark haul! What can I say, eh? The place is amazing and they do such great bargains! First off I got a cap which is more of a 'fun' item and yeah I know, looking back I don't really know why I spent £4 on it either. Aha! Anyway, I also got these pair of circle reflective shades for only £2 then a pair of striped leggings and a printed pair of loose trousers. I also bought six crop tops in various styles, a white fitted one, a sleeveless black high neck, two boyfriend, a blue striped shirt and lastly, a zebra print one. That's enough crop tops to last me the entire year! And to keep me cosy while I'm in them, I got a waterfall cardigan as well as a nice b&w bomber jacket. The last two items are a monochrome playsuit and another b&w printed cut out dress. Yep I spend way too much money in Primark but what can you do, the place sucks all discipline out of you! Sorry, not sorry. x

Haul | Dungarees and Shirts

Primark maxi skirt £10 | dungarees £12 | boyfriend shirts £3.50 each | printed top £5 | striped dress £5 | 
cross necklace £2 | pack of earrings £2.50 each | rings £3 | tights £3 | socks £2.50

Yea I know, another Primark haul — a bit overdue but oh well! Here I have a black maxi dress and some good old denim dungarees. I also bought some plain oversized roll up tees in three different colours. I mean, why not? They were only £3.50 each and they're pretty decent quality. Not to mention, I can wear them over and over again. Can't go wrong with a good basic! I also have that cold shoulder jumper I featured in an outfit post a couple weeks back, as well as this black and white stripe dress which surprisingly only cost £5! Lastly, a few accessories along with tights and socks. Not much of an exciting haul but I have a few more lined up plus I went to London for a day on Tuesday and bought some things so there should be plenty more hauls coming soon! x

Footwear | Pink Flats

Primark flats £5

These are probably the girliest pair of shoes I own and they're so pretty! I thought they'd be perfect for spring/summer. You know, when you just wanna be a real girly girl. Besides, pretty much all my shoes are black! Sometimes, buying things you wouldn't normally wear can be really refreshing. It's just nice to always have an alternative to what you're used to. And who knows, one day it might come in handy! x

Footwear | Moustache Flats

Primark flats £8

Just before summer, I kind of went on a flats frenzy and ended up buying quite a few. One being this Primark moustache flats. I just love it, I mean how can I not say no? Along with this, I also ended up with a moustache bedding, a moustache rug, a moustache flask and a moustache phone case. Call it an addiction! Ahaha! I've already worn it a few times and it's lovely. It makes the outfit that bit more fun and it just really makes me happy. Do you like moustaches too? x

Footwear | Basic Black Flats

Primark flats £6

This is a bit of a boring post but hey, not everyone can walk in heels as often as they'd like to — and comes in the flats! I think everyone needs to own at least one good pair that they can easily rely on. Although I have a few, I like to have a couple that are pretty basic for simple and casual days. Also, they can go with a lot of things yet still maintain the focus on whatever you're wearing. Here's one from Primark, I love that it has a slightly different cut and that it's so comfy and fits so well. The printed inner fabric is a really cool touch too! It's perfect for those lazy days when all you want is for your feet to feel comfortable and be able to run errands at ease. And at £6, it really hardly breaks the bank! x

Haul | Bits and Bobs from Primark

Primark bag £12 | tank tops £2.50 each | denim shirt £12 | striped maxi dress £8 | midi dress £7 | blue necklace £3 |
triangle necklace £2 | set of 12 earrings £2.50 | ring £1.50 | skull earrings £2 | triangle earrings £2.50

Another Primark haul, I just can't resist that place! The low prices just lure you in and next thing you know you're paying for a bunch of stuff you probably don't even need. This is often the scenario for me, this time with accessories! Primark can sometimes be really good with their jewellery and for some reason I ended up with a bag full of them — a couple necklaces, some earrings and a ring. To be honest, I have no idea what went through my head when I got these as I haven't really worn any, apart from the small triangle necklace and some studs from the pack of 12. It's weird because on a normal day, I wouldn't have even gone for the others that I bought. Now, I'm faced with having to figure out a way to wear them in outfits and I still haven't succeeded. Aha!

However, I also got some things which I know I'd get wear out of. One being this nice pleather backpack which is perfect for summer but can also be worn throughout the year. I've already used it once and it's perfect! The fabric is quite soft and it offers a lot of space for all of the junk I carry around with me everyday. Next, I got a couple of vest tops just because they're really easy to use for layering and as go-to tops for simple and casual looks (i.e. under a blazer or with skirts, etc.). 

And I knew as soon as I saw this denim shirt with black mesh sleeves that I had to have it. It is such a cool take on the denim trend and the mix of textures is just perfect for making an outfit that bit more fun and edgy. Also, continuing on with my maxi/midi dress infatuation, I grabbed this striped maxi dress along with this simple grey midi tank dress which I both love. Long dresses have just been calling out my name left, right and centre, and how can I not say no? They're so easy and they just look amazing either dressed up or worn casually. I can see myself wearing these loads over summer and even during fall, possibly even winter! x

Haul | All The Things From Primark

Primark purse £5 | clutch £6 | duvet £11 | pink flats £5 | moustache flats £8 | snood £2 | necklace £2 | dress £10 |
white jumper £14 | ribbed jumpers £8 each | green and yellow hoodie £5 each (sale) | grey hoodie £12

Did I mention how much I love shopping at Primark? Yep. I think everyone would agree that it is extremely hard not to overspend in there. They just offer so many affordable items that you end up practically buying the entire store! Honestly, the amount of brown paper bags in my room is insane. I mean, give it a day or two after a trend pops up and they're on it. You'll find dupes of almost everything in there, and for half the price too! It's no wonder everyone loves it. Take me for example, I bought all of these a few months back and still haven't used half of them — ooops! But I really do like shopping there. It's not always the best but you find great stuff now and again. What's your opinion on Primark, nay or yay? x

Haul | Primark Basics

Primark jeans £11 | flats £6 | socks £2.50 | cardigan £7 | skirt £10

When you're looking for amazing stuff that are cheap but still on trend, Primark is always a great place to go. Although not everything is of good quality, I find that sometimes it's just down to the items you choose and the way you care for them. In fact, with a tiny bit of luck and if you look properly, you might just walk out of there with the nicest things in hand. Some of the things I like to buy from there are basics. It's just always good to have nice and reliable items that you can easily fall back on during days when you're not at all feeling inspired or fashion-y. 

Here, I have one of their super soft skinny jeans in the lightest wash. I find this really great for whenever I'm not in the mood to wear leggings. It's the perfect shade of light denim which goes amazingly well with a lot of things plus it's going to look good over spring and summer! I also got a simple pair of black flats for when I'm feeling lazy or whenever I'm in a rush or just running errands. Also bought some socks because one can never have too many! The other two things I got were this nice aztec print cardigan, which I will be showing in an outfit post soon, and this burgundy speckled high-low skirt. Not the very basic of basics but are still good to have for making a look that bit more different without having to put so much effort into planning an outfit. Let me know what you think of the stuff I got and if you like shopping at Primark too! x

Haul | Monochrome Dresses

Primark striped dress £7 (sale) | printed dress £7 (sale) | paisley dress £15

My staples are grey, black and white so it's no surprise that when the monochrome trend hit the shops, I began to gather as many items as I could providing my pocket could afford it. Haha! Some being dresses. I got these from Primark last winter and have already worn a couple of them since. I am also planning to wear them this spring and summer. They're great and can be easily worn on casual days or dressed up for occasions, etc. And guess what, I have my eye on more monochromatic items. I just can't get enough of them! Because you see, whenever a trend pops up in fashion that I admire, I often use it to my advantage to purchase pieces that I know will last me forever. Do you do that too? x
