Payday shopping!

There's nothing I love more than some payday shopping, it's so satisfying to spend money you've worked for! It's also time I enjoy spending with my Mum, it's been so long since we had a girlie day like this, and being as we've both been a bit ill recently it was nice to treat ourselves.


Sorry for the poor lighting, my room is facing the wrong way for photos at this time of day, but you have to work with what you've got, right? I'm really looking forward to moving into my new house and having a decent place to take photos from! 

First up, this beauuuuutiful dress from Primark. I love the fit and the pattern- I'm really happy with it, I can't wait to wear it with tights, boots and a little cardigan. Too cute. 



A TERRIBLE photo but this shirt just would not come out on my camera! I'm obsessed with tartan right now and this green and blue check is right up my street. I also love the cute ribbon detailing under the collar, it gives it something extra I think. This is also from Primark, and I'm going to wear it with thick leggings and some heeled chelsea boots because it's pretty long. 



Ha, I'm not even sorry about this one! Last year I wanted a Christmas jumper so much but Primark sold out of them so quickly so I snapped this one up as soon as I saw it! This is a men's extra small but it fits nicely and I can genuinely see myself wearing it, is that weird? I'm too excited. 



Another thing I love, more than Christmas, is warmth. My feet are consistently cold from about mid-August to mid-July (the next year) so slippers are my favourite things ever! These are comfortable, fluffy and they have reindeers on them. I love them. Also Primark.




Could not resist these socks, I'm properly in love with french bulldogs so I had to have them! 80 denier tights are going to be an essential for work so I thought I'd start stocking up now. These are both from Primark too, you can't beat Primark for things like underwear and essentials! 

Obviously I had to have a peruse round boots and finally picked myself up the Real Techniques eye brush set as it was one a buy one get one half price offer and I'm a sucker for some clever marketing! On the offer I picked up these Ted Baker eyelash curlers. The box was so pretty and they're gold and I want curly eyelashes. 

When I qualified my Grandma very generously sent me a cheque and I cashed it today, and spent some of it on these lovely Pandora earrings. I've been after some small pretty earrings for a while, all the ones I've got are too big to wear at work. These caught my eye and were perfect, I love them!



What do you think of what I bought? I'm really happy with it all, and I had a lovely day with my Mum so wins all round I think!
