EVERYTHING 5 POUNDS LACE HEM JUMPER

Hi there everyone. I hope you are all happy and healthy. It's been one heck of a week let me tell you, but now I am taking a bit of time for me to blog, get more organised at home and spend some time with my boyfriend as we have next week off together. I haven't been off work since January and I could tell I was burning out so yay!

I do love to browse EVERYTHING 5 POUNDS daily. I have found some great pieces during my shopping experiences with them. Sometimes I have received items that have been faulty, but they allow you to send them back for free. I have had items that didn't fit and I haven's sent them back because I would have to send them back paying for postage myself so if it's say just one item I don't usually bother. If you exchange items for whatever reason they then post the exchange items to you for free.

In this haul I exchanged 3 tops in different colours that I didn't like the feel of the material and knew I would never wear for this item that I bought in three shades.

LACE HEM JUMPER (WHITE, BEIGE & BLACK)

I love the style of this piece as it gives the effect of a lace top poking out from underneath the jumper. It's quite simple and can be worn with anything to add a pretty girly touch of lace. Because the jumper is singular in colour it doesn't add too much fuss to the piece and means it's so versatile to add to so many outfits. Although we are currently finally having a nice bit of summer this is the UK so I am sure these will come in handy at cooler times. If not they are great staple keepers for A/W. This jumper also comes in shades of pink, cream and grey. I think the grey and beige might be mixed up on the website so bear that in mind if you order either of these shades.

Let me know your recommendations from the EVERYTHING 5 POUNDS website in the comments below.

PRIMARK HAUL BARGAINS & CONVERSE DUPES

Hey everyone. I am going to get straight into today's post as I found some Primark gems for you including some converse dupes!

CONVERSE DUPES (BLACK/WHITE) - £6

I am so glad that I nabbed these bargain plims as they are great to throw on with just about anything for casual styling. The fact that they are monochrome too makes them so much more wearable. I already have them in a dark purple shade too. For just £6 I think they are a must have. Mine are a size 5 and true to size.

WIDE RIB JUMPER (RED, NAVY, GREY, GOLD, BLUSH & MULTI) - £8 EACH

I already have this in black, olive and ivory. They are great for wearing with jeans over a vest or shirt. I have also worn mine over maxi dresses to make the dress look like a skirt. They are stretchy, but fit well. I got a size 12 as I am a bit top heavy and they fit perfectly. The sleeves sit nicely at the elbows which is great for ladies not wanting expose their upper arms. I keep surprisingly warm in these too which is great as you can still look put together without feeling the chill. I think these are great for transitioning between seasons too because of the layering options.

LACE UP RIB JUMPER (KHAKI, IVORY, BLACK & BLUE MARL) - £10 EACH

I have been after some of these lace up style tops for a while, but I have found them to be made of a material I didn't like, a bodysuit or just too expensive. These were a bargain price. They are made from acrylic which I do find can make me a little too hot sometimes under my arms (sorry if TMI, but you may want to know this). I plan on wearing some thin long sleeve tops underneath to hopefully combat this problem. I would like some in a cotton material so if you know of any please let me know in the comments below.

Also do share your Primark bargains.

P.S. If you need to buy any foldaway bags to keep in your handbag Primark sell them from £1 and they come in their own pouch!

Love to you all

H&M HAUL

Hi beauties. I picked up some pieces from one of my favourite stores recently as I had some Xmas vouchers so here they are :)

SUIT TROUSERS WITH PLEATS

These black trousers have a D ring buckle which is very on trend at the moment and a wrap over element to conceal the zip. I plan on wearing them with fitted tops tucked in. They have a very smart casual vibe. I got these in a size 12 as they are slightly higher waisted than styles I usually go for and because I have a short middle I found that going up a size meant they fit slightly better. They are also a great length for me which makes a nice change being a shorter gal. Such great value for the price!

LONG KNITTED DRESS

This grey marl knitted dress is a great length on me too. I did pick this up in an XS as it does come up quite oversized. I really struggled this year to find knitted maxi dresses that weren't bodycon or super expensive so I had to snap this one up. It's a shame they only have one shade, but hey ho. The material is a lovely soft knit, but I will have to wear long sleeves under it as it will be a bit itchy on my skin. I'm a sensitive girl don't you know ;) This will be great to add belts to and layer over leggings, shirts etc .....

If any of you have spotted bargain knitted maxi dresses that you think I might like please let me know in the comments below.

PRIMARK AND H&M HAUL

Hey gorgeous people. I did a bit of shopping again, oops! On Saturday I had a 'me day'. I had my fave sandwich (cheese & onion) sat on a bench then wondered off into H&M where I picked up one item featured here. Then I went to Costa for some tiffin and a cappuccino. OMG heaven!

I was in and out of a few shops, but the one that I spent the rest of my pennies in was Primark.

NAVY CHECK NIGHTSHIRT - MEDIUM (10/12) - £8

I have been after a shirt dress for some time, but I find that they are too short (even for short girls like me) or just too expensive. I can not see any obvious signs that this is a nightshirt and so I am going to wear it as a dress or long top with leggings.

5 PACK BLUE, OFF WHITE & GREY MARL SOCKS - SIZE 4-8 - £2.50

I thought I would get shades different from just black all the time, but that are still quite neutral. Cheap as chips for 5 pairs!

P.S. LOVE... THIS 4 PK FASHION NAIL FILES - 50P IN THE SALE

I love the coral and printed styles. I am hanging on to summer as long as I can.

PINK/SILVER GLITTER DOME CUP - £3

I like having a straw as I find it helps me to drink more throughout the day. I am a firm believer in water being one of the best things for our bodies.

WHITE CUBIC ZIRCONIA FRONT & BACK EARRINGS - £2

I have not tried this style of earring yet. These are great also because you can just wear the silver balls if you want to.

WHITE CUBIC ZIRCONIA NECKLACE - £2

I don't usually wear matching jewellery, but I had to pick this up too because I think it's great to team with simple tops for a little glisten to catch the eye.

H&M CORAL V NECK JUMPER - XS - £7 IN THE SALE

There was only an XS and lots of MED left which looked too big so I took a chance and it fits perfectly. Such a great shade to perk up any day and bring out the blue in my eyes.

DESPICABLE ME MINIONS BURNOUT CORAL T-SHIRT - 10 - £3 IN THE SALE

I think I will wear this as a PJ top, but still isn't it great. I know not everyone is a Minions fan, but they just make me happy :)

P.S. LOVE LIP LINER CRAYONS (L-R: 01, 02, 03 & 09) - £1 EACH

I have read good things about these lip liners from Primark and although I don't use lip liner that much I am hoping these will change that.

P.S. LOVE FOUNDATION STICK (LIGHT) - £2

I want to try this a face highlight rather than a foundation, but I may also use it as a concealer. It does also come in shades medium and dark, but I prefer an ash tone to contour with so I didn't get one of those.

ZIP THROUGH HOODED SWEATERS - BURGUNDY, OATMEAL & BLACK - 12 - £7 EACH

I wanted some casual sweaters that were easy to take on and off so these are perfect. The black is a staple shade and the burgundy which seems to be very popular at the moment is very much an autumnal shade. The oatmeal adds freshness to an outfit without being as bold and crisp as white. These feel so soft and have handy side pockets. They also come in many colours.

So that's everything lovelies. I hope you find something here you like. Share your Primark finds also in the comments below.

Love to you all
