The £5.00 Matalan Summer Dress

Heyy Everyone, 
Well I had to share this rather amazing bargain I found. I'm not a massive shopper in Matalan but while bored one evening I decided to have a nose on their website because they do have some gems sometimes and I do like their home section. 
I found a cute floral print summer dress that came in a few different colours for 5 POUND, I could not believe it. I initially wanted the hot pink one, but that was sold out completely. When I clicked on the other colours they was only available in size large so I thought well if its a bit big its ok, I don't mind. 
So they arrived today and the size large being the only size available actually turned out to be a blessing because they fit exactly the way I would like. My first thoughts is, they are quite short and the material is thin. However the print is gorgeous and the elastic bit at the top fits really nice, nothing worse than having to keep hoying strapless things up all the time. 



I ordered one in a orangy peach colour and the other a greeny turquoise. I think they are so cute and I cant wait to wear them, we just need the sun now, if it ever does come!!
If your going to order i'd probably go a size up, because to me I dont think you could class these dresses as a true large so just bare that in mind especially if your a bit curvier like me. 

Hope your all enjoying your weekend, i'm just currently recovering from yet another dose of tonsillitis, it really does get me down sometimes, but i'm feeling allot better than I did.   

Also I managed to get my hands on 5ive tickets yesterday, I swear i'm so excited, they were my ultimate boyband when I was growing up, was never a Take That fan, was East 17 and then 5ive all the way for me, Abz was such a massive crush of mine and I remember covering all my school books with posters of him. I managed to get us really good seats so roll on November, iv'e already been blasting all their songs out getting in the mood haha. 

Are any of you going to see 5ive too?? Or any other exciting concerts??

A Primark Gem

Heyy Everyone..
Well today has not been great. I have left my Fathers Day gift buying far too late and I had to go out to town today in pouring down rain and it was just awful. 
So once I had bought my dad his gift I decided to pop into Primark, its like I actually think its the rules to go in there on every single town trip but I reasoned with myself I needed an umbrella ;) 
I got my umbrella that was £4.00... could not believe it. The umbrella is actually more money than some tops... weird!!!
I had a little quick nosey round and I didnt see much I really liked, except a red blazer that I might go back for.


Then I saw this;


I was instantly attracted, I love the leopard and the short chain straps. Then the moment came when I looked how much it is.... £7.00, yes seven earth pounds. I could not believe it, how much of a fab little bargain is this bag. They also have a matching purse if your interested. 


So all in all a bad day of getting rained on my hair has gone all fuzzy curls on me and getting to the fathers day cards was like a military operation but then I look at me new bag and I feel ok :):) 


Anyone else been a bad daughter and bought themselves things while fathers day shopping??

H&M Bargain

Heyy Everyone...
Quick post, I just have to show you the dress I picked up from H&M a couple of days ago. 


I was actually on my way out the shop when I spotted this dress. Isnt it just amazing.. and the best part is it cost just £12.99. Less than most Primark dresses these days. 
The only issue I have is the sizes are in S, M or L. Id say im a size medium in these situations (size 10/12) but I picked the medium up and it looked far too big. So I bought it in a small, once I got home and tried it on it was even still abit too big in the small, but with a belt round my waist I love it. 
Ive got a christening coming up so will probably wear it for that. 

How you all doing? Enjoying the nicer weather?
Speak Soon

Pound Shop Wowness!!

Heyy everyone..
Can you imagine my face when I popped into the pound shop  for nothing more than two bottles of pepsi max and seen these....




Thats right... Two Rimmel London eyeshadows, just look how pretty they are. These are a cream eyeshadow and I think they are stunning. One is a grey/black colour with silver sparkle, the other is a purple/pink with purple and pink sparkle. They are super pigmented but ive not worn them out yet so not sure how they last on the eyes but for £1.00 they cant really do wrong. 


If you have a pound shop near by have a pop in and see what you can find. There are some right beautys to be found. I even picked up some for my mum and she loves them too. 


Hope everyone is having a lovely weekend (although its almost over :( )
Speak soon
