February Primark Haul

It's been quite a long time since I did a good old Primark haul on my blog, way too long! I went in recently to pick up a few essentials for my hospital bag (post on that coming soon!), but it kind of turned into a full on splurge, so I thought I'd share with you all of the bits and pieces I picked up.

Primark Haul June 2016

Apologies for the lack of posts over the last few days, I've had a rotten cold and unfortunately had nothing prepared in advance that I could share with you. But now I'm back with one of my favourite posts - a Primark haul! I told myself when I got back into blogging that Primark hauls would not become a monthly thing again, but it's looking like that's actually going to happen again - oops! Here's what I've been buying over the last few weeks.

Primark Haul Spring 2016

If you've been reading my blog for a while, you'll know I love a trip to Primark. Most of the items in my wardrobe get changed out at the end of each season and replaced with new ones, so I don't really want to be spending huge amounts of the majority of my clothing, and Primark has really stepped up its game in the last couple of years - I always manage to find some great pieces and best of all it's super cheap. As I haven't done a haul post in a while, I've managed to accumulate quite a bit of stuff. Here's what I've snapped up from Primark recently.

Recent Primark Purchases

So it's been a while since my last Primark haul on the blog, and it's safe to say I've accumulated a lot of stuff from there since! Don't worry, I didn't go on a mad splurge one day, this stuff has all come from several different trips over the last few months (I'm not sure that makes it any better?!), but since it was all still in stock the last time I visited the store, I thought I'd share with you everything I've bought recently.

Mini Stationery Haul

What blogger doesn't love cute stationery?! Every time it gets towards the new year, I like to go out and buy myself some new stationery (of course this has to include a diary) to inspire myself and get the ideas for new blog posts flowing for the next year. I don't know about you, but there's something about a new notebook that just makes me want to sit down and write, so when I went out on a shopping trip recently, I made sure I picked up some new bits and pieces - and this little lot came to less than a tenner!

My Bargain Winter Coat

I've been trying to spend a lot less money on myself recently, especially with Christmas coming up, and with various things to save for looking into next year, but I really was in desperate need of a new winter coat. Primark always has a wide selection of coats, but I find a lot of them really just don't suit me. I did, however, spot this gorgeous number whilst I was out on a shopping trip a few weeks ago.

Primark Haul September 2015

This months haul is pretty big. I kind of lost a bit of control when I went on my last trip to Primark, but now that they have well and truly stocked up on their autumn/winter pieces, I couldn't help myself. This is my favourite season for fashion and so I was dying to get a few new pieces for my wardrobe.

Primark Haul August 2015

Considering I bought quite an expensive item (expensive as far as Primark goes anyway!) and still managed to keep the total under £100, I wasn't expecting this haul to be very big, but having now gone thought the items I picked up I've realised it's even bigger than last month! Oops! I think you can tell from this haul I am well and truely over summer and very much looking forward to autumn arriving - this is my favourite season in terms of the fashion!

Primark Haul July 2015

I've been doing a lot of shopping in Primark over the past few months. It's definitely become my new favourite place to shop - they've really upped their game over the last year and although I swear their prices are creeping up, they are still really affordable compared to other stores. Rather than bombard you with a massive haul of everything I've bought since my blogging break, I thought I'd just show you my most recent purchases, so you're more likely to still be able to get the products I'm showing you.

OOTD - A Day At The Carnival

Saturday was carnival day in my hometown of Kenilworth, and it's tradition in our family for us all to walk down and watch the procession (which I have to admit seems to be getting smaller with each passing year!) and then go for a wander around the fair afterwards. Despite the stormy weather the night before, it was a beautiful sunny day, so summer appropriate attire was very much needed, and today I thought I'd share with you what I wore.

OOTD - Lunch Date With A Friend

This afternoon I went out for lunch with the lovely Alison, who blogs over at Rock and Glitter and had a good old catch up, and I thought I'd share with you what I wore. I'm getting a bit bored of big fluffy jumpers now, so thought I'd look to spring a little with a pastel themed outfit.

Primark Haul

I feel like I've haven't done a big clothing haul in quite a long time, so when I went shopping with my friend Alison last weekend, I was really ready to take on Primark and see what they had to offer. I'd watched a few Primark hauls on YouTube to look out for anything I might fancy and - surprise, surprise - my local Primark didn't have a lot of the things I saw in stock, but I still managed to pick up a few nice pieces.

Autumn Clothes Haul

I haven't been clothes shopping all that much in recent months, but last weekend I really went to town on stocking up on my autumn/winter wardrobe! It seems to be either all or nothing with me - either I'll go shopping and come back with nothing, or I'll have bags and bags full. And I'm ashamed to say I wasn't done when I got home - I have another online order on it's way, which I should get in the next couple of days. Hopefully this little haul will satisfy me for a while and I won't feel the urge to shop again for some time - I don't think my bank balance could cope!

This Month's Primark Purchases

I know it doesn't exactly look like it from this haul, but I've been a little uninspired by Primark recently. Bare in mind this is a whole month's worth of shopping, and normally I would purchase more than this in just one trip - and have to leave a few things I like behind through fear of overspending. That said, I did manage to pick a few bits I liked on a couple of trips this month, plus a few essentials.

What I Wore On Holiday

Just a quick post for you today, as I'm not feeling too great! I've recently come back from my honeymoon, so I thought I'd share with you some of my favourite evening outfits from the holiday. You'll notice I'm a bit of a New Look fan, as the majority of my clothes in these pictures are from there!

Neon Nails for £2

I'm always keen to try low budget beauty brands. Why pay so much money if you can get something just as good for a low budget price? So many people have been pretty impressed with Primark's lipsticks, considering they are only a pound. I went to pick one up for myself recently to see just how good they were for the price, and came across their £2 nail polish sets. The neon set instantly caught my eye, having previously seen it on the internet. At just 50p per polish, I had to give them a go.

Recent Fashion Purchases

I've been trying to watch how much I'm spending recently, so it's taken me a while to get together enough fashion items for one haul post. Usually I'd have more than this to show you from just one trip to one single shop, but it has taken a fair few weeks to accumulate the goodies I'm about to show you. But if there's on thing this spending cut has taught me, it's to be more selective and really think about what I'm buying, rather than just putting anything in my basket because I thought it looked pretty, so I'm really pleased with the items I've been picking up recently.

ANOTHER Primark Haul

I've only been blogging for a month and a half, and I'm already on to my second Primark haul! But when the prices are as low as theirs, it's hard to resist having a cheeky little purchase - I spent less than £100 from these two trips combined, and picked up a decent amount of things both times!

Primark Haul

 

I went shopping in the sales a couple of weeks ago and managed to pick up quite a few bargains (see what I got here). One shop I did fail in when it came to shopping the sales was Primark.

Primark is chaotic at the best of times, even more so when there's a sale on - I ended up taking one look at the discount section and walking away! I did, however, have a little mooch around the rest of the store and picked up a few bits and bobs. Apologies for the poor picture quality in this post - I missed my opportunity to take some pics while the sun was out at the weekend, so I had to take these under artificial light in the evening!
