Primark Haulin'


Uh Guys, did I miss the news flash where Primark got kinda good again? Now I am not Primark's biggest fan and I'd say I've avoided it for at least the last two years in which time my occasional 'check-ins' have been fruitless. But since it's pretty much the closest shop to my work, I popped in on my lunch the other day and was actually pleasantly surprised! All this for under £30... now that's a proposition I like.



I've been getting a little into cosmetic bags lately and when I saw these I thought they were just super cute and at £3 and £4 it was just a 'what the hell, I'll get em' moment. These remind me a little of Lulu Guiness (although obviously not quite as nice quality) which I really liked and I thought they'd be great just to have around and store my extensive collection of nail polishes...


I also picked up this necklace which I thought was really sweet, I think this was like £4 but I could be wrong! I thought this was really unique as it has both silver and gold in it, which is great for me as I have a lot of gold jewellery and fashion but also have a Tiffany bracelet and ring that I wear every day and also need to integrate day to day! I love the turquoisey beads in it and I think this will look fab going into summer!


Finally, I also picked up this boots for £15 I think, and I just love them! I've been looking for some boots like this for agesss – I wanted some that would be flattering with just tights (as I struggle with this having quite muscly legs) so the dip at the front helps that enormously, but I also wanted a gap around the ankle so that I could easily tuck jeans in and also to help make my ankles look a bit skinnier! The material has a nice soft leather look also which I thought was fab too.

Overall, a satisfying trip to Primark and I think I reminded my self why sometimes, sometimes, it is worth the pain. If anyone has any tips of where there are some nice bits in the shops lately, let me know below! I'm officially on a roll...

  2. Yes! I definitely think Primark can produce a few real budget treasures from time to time! Your statement necklace is amazing and those beads remind me of very exotic European jewelry, so beautiful xx
