ZARA has an online store! :o



I don't know if any of you have heard, but I'm sooo excited about Zara going online! I could literally buy most of the stuff from there! It's all very vintage and the quality is amazing.

I'm sorry I haven't been doing any posts lately, I've been redecorating my room, and helping out wherever I can cause practically the whole house is getting a revamp...


Coming Soon:

Giveaway prizes from Emma @ purpleeeRose
Photos of my redecorated room
Possibly a new makeup FOTD

so yeah, anyone as excited as me that Zara now has an online store?!?!

Bye for nowww all :)
Love,

Another Haul and What Brand is your wardrobe?

Hiyaa, I want to show you guys some more bits and pieces that I got. Also I wanted to see what brands my wardrobe is made of, I thought it would be fun. If you want to do a post like this, link me to your blog so I can read it. It would be interesting to see what brands people's wardrobes are made out of :)

First off, The Haul.
New Look are having another big sale. There wasn't really much there that I liked, but I did try to look. It was close to closing time though, so I was a bit rushed. Anyway, I did manage to pick up a top much like the cropped one that I've got (left, £6)

New Look
3/4 sleeve top - £7 reduced to £2
I was really shocked, I actually went up to the till and asked the girl, is this actually £2? She said yes and I was like "I'll have that then!!"


TK Maxx
Ashwood Leather Purse - RRP: £32.50, TM price: £9.99
This is sooo gorgeously vintage! It has the bow, and the rustic design. I've been looking for a new purse that looks great and TK Maxx had the best choices, I saw a few that I liked but my mum picked this one up and I knew it was the one for me :)

I'm sure most of you know about the Instyle offer where you buy their magazine and get a free cheek and lip stain from the body shop. There is two colour choices, #1 Rose Pink or the one I chose below, #2 Bronze Glimmer. The magazine itself costs £3.60 but a lipstain retails in TBS for £9. This means you could have both of them for £7.20 which is £1.80 less than if you bought one lipstain from them! TBS are also doing an offer where you buy 2 makeup items and get the stain for free.

I have put this on my lips, but the colour is VERY golden and I don't think it is very suitable as a lip colour because of all the gold flecks in it. However, this is just my opinion and it would look nice if you were going for a very bold and dramatic look. Although if you use it as a cheek stain, it gives a very subtle glow and you can hardly see the flecks which, In my opinion, is good. I think I will buy another instyle mag to get the rose pink one, as I may prefer this more, and I love the idea of something staining your lips so you have long-lasting colour :)

-Note: I bought all of these items with my own money-

Next, I want to do a little count of all the different brands in my wardrobe. So here goes...
TK Maxx - 3
Miss Selfridge - 3
Primark - 18
New Look - 8
ASOS - 2
Zara - 4
Next - 4
Topshop - 1
Republic - 1
Warehouse - 1
Stradivarius - 1
M&S - 1
River Island - 1

I have a mostly primark wardrobe lol. Here's a picture. Just for fun :)

Clothes Haul - Zara, New Look & More...

Welcome to My First Clothes Haul ♥

I'm extremely excited to show you what I bought because I enjoy watching other people do it so much! I just have to give it a go. I went shopping on Sunday and Monday. So, first I want to show you what I bought on Sunday.

~ Sunday ~

Shop: Zara
Price: £49.99
I really love this jacket. I was a bit scared at first because it's quite expensive and I'm a student so of course that means I have no money! How familiar... anyways my mum convinced me to buy it because she said it would go with lots of things...

Here is some close ups of the jacket. I don't think the first picture does it justice. It's so beautiful and just looks so well made. And I love how the buttons have coat of arms on them.

Shop: TK Maxx
Price: £34.99 Reduced from £70.00
I had been looking for a pair of heels that would go with my skinny jeans because of course, everyone knows that heels make your legs look sexier ;) I needed quite a low pair because I'm already 5ft 8 so yeah. I really love these, I think the Tan coloured stuff is really in right now, and can really complete an outfit.

Okay that's all for Sunday's shopping so next it's Monday!

~ Monday ~



Shop: New Look
Price: £9 Reduced from £16
I love this! Again it's got the gold buttons, I just can't seem to help myself with the whole nautical thing lately! I love the badge detailing on the second picture, and there is actually a little gold chain which dangles down but it's all squished in the picture. It's also a pin so you can take it off, I could put it on my jacket but it might just make it look cheap :/ Not sure. What do you think?

Shop: New Look
Price: £7 Reduced from £16
I'm really pleased I waited to get this, I saw this full priced a few weeks ago but couldn't justify spending £16 on it. So low and behold, I come back and it's in the sales! The picture doesn't really show the right colour, it's a deep green kharki colour. And the buttons aren't that shiny, it's just the camera flash. I think these would go lovely with my tan boots. So yeah, go to New Look this week, they have a MASSIVE sale on!



Shop: New Look
Price: £6 Reduced from £18
I thought this was gorgeous :) it's actually a cream colour although it looks quite white in the picture. The design looks very military but then i realised it had little anchors on the buttons. But it's lovely anyways. And it's crop rather than full size. And I adore the unusual (hook and eye?!) fastening too.

Shop: Primark
Price: £9
The skirt is actually black but the flash washed it out. I don't actually own a skirt (until now) because I've just not really liked any of them. But i thought I would give this one a try and it looks really nice on. So yeah, Another thing to go with the sailor/nautical theme with the rope and gold detailing methinks. I wonder if I will be onto floral designs next week :P

Shop: Primark
Price: White - £1, Red/Navy £1 Reduced from £2
Finally I got three fairly standard belts. I just got a skinny white one and the red and navy ones were reduced so i thought, for a pound, you just can't go wrong. When they scanned in the till, it came up as £2 so I asked if they should have been a pound. The woman was really grumpy and called her manager who said yeah, they were supposed to be a pound.

Do you think I should have fussed about an extra pound? Or was I right to query it? :P

So that's me done, I hope you like my purchases :) Let me know if you have any questions.
Hope you're having a good week everyone x
Love,
Emz ♥
