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

KRYPTIK ROSE HOLOGRAPHIC OG BLACK HOODIE

Hey sweeties. Happy Sunday to you all. I seriously have no idea where the past few days have gone.

Without rambling on as I usually do here is a fabulous piece that was gifted to me by KRYPTIK ROSE.

"OG KRYPTIK ROSE" BLACK HOODIE (HOLOGRAPHIC)

This hoodie is seriously my new fave wardrobe item. The quality feels gorgeous and the holographic print on the front is of the same standard. It definitely doesn't seem like it will start peeling off in the wash or anything. For reference this is a size small and I am usually a 10.

If you love street fashion that is comfortable with a playful side then you need to check out KRYPTIK ROSE.

As well as hoodies they also have within their range tees, phone cases and sunnies.

Let me know your favourite items from the brand in the comments below.

Love to you all

OUTFIT : WEARABLE HALLOWEEN FASHION

Hi sweeties. A happy and fabulous Saturday is wished from me to you. With Halloween coming up next week I wanted to create an outfit post for those of you wanting something more wearable for day and night.

VALOUR & VALKYRIE NAVY ARTISAN SWEAT LONG SLEEVE TOP

99P STORE BLACK SLOUCH BEANIE

NEXT SILVER CHAIN NECKLACE (WORN OVER BEANIE)

PRIMARK BLACK SHIRT (WORN UNDERNEATH)

H&M BLACK JERSEY LEGGINGS (CUSTOMISED)

SOLE TRADER BLACK STUDDED WEDGE BOOTS

The Valour & Valkyrie sweat top was very kindly gifted to me after I saw it at the BLOGGERS LOVE GIFTING LOUNGE. The quality of this sweat is great. Very soft and well put together with an exquisite lace, jewelled and beaded design on the shoulders.

I used scissors to customise the basic leggings. Originally the slits were meant for the front, but I reversed them for a more interesting look.

The necklace worn on top of my beanie adds more interest. I pinned it with a safety pin at the back. I would have added more if I were wearing it out as the chain is quite heavy so it would move around.

You can see how I created the make-up in this post inspired by Alex Vause from Orange Is The New Black here.

Let me know if you enjoy my outfit posts and want more in the comments below.

Love to you all

HOUSE OF TRENDELLA WISH LIST

Hey everyone. It's almost the weekend so yay for that. After meeting loads of great brands recently at the BLOGGERS LOVE LFW GIFTING LOUNGE I of course checked them all out and discovered a great site that hosts lots of great brands and pieces all under one fashion roof. Welcome to HOUSE OF TRENDELLA.

HOT BASICS BLACK SWEATSHIRT WITH FLORAL EMBROIDERY PATTERN

Combing warmth and pretty floral features on a black background. A very different way of adding winter florals to your wardrobe with this great transitional piece. It kind of reminds me of the skull candy designs that I love too.

SUGARHILL BOUTIQUE UNICORN SWEATSHIRT

I don't actually own any unicorn items as yet which I am surprised at. I love this grown up take on the trend as most unicorn fashion I have seen is very bright and colourful. The dipped hem gives it that something more too. I would love layering this over a white shirt with jeans.

HOT BASICS GREEN SEQUIN OPEN BACK BODYCON DRESS

I saw this piece at the Bloggers Love event and fell in love with it instantly. The HOT site says it can be worn in many ways. It's great for those who want a 2 in 1 dress as it has a plunging v neck on the back. Shown above it's fab as there is so much sparkle, but for full on glamour I would reverse it adding a statement neck piece that doesn't come lower than the v.

HOT BASICS LOGO GALAXY SWEATSHIRT

One last casual piece for you. White is also a great colour to wear in winter I think as it reminds me of snowy scenes. I again do not own any galaxy print items. Where have I been? This is a nice way to wear the galaxy theme in a more relaxed way while sporting the House Of Trendella brand.

I hope you found at least one item here that you favour as much as I do. Don't forget that there are many other great pieces that you need to check out on HOUSE OF TRENDELLA!

Xmas Wish List: The Watch Hut & ASOS

Hi lovelies I hope you are well. Today I have a few products that are on my Xmas wish list to share with you.

Etail PR informed me that The Watch Hut is giving away £300 worth of ASOS vouchers to one luck winner and a £100 ASOS voucher to the runner up.

The idea is to feature a watch from The Watch Hut on your blog in a Xmas wish list. As the vouchers are for ASOS I decided to pick some items to add to my wish list from there.
