Hello everyone!

Today I am off school due to teachers striking (although the year 7s & 12s have to go in, ha) so I thought I'd do a haul post that I have been meaning to do for some time, because I bought these things a while ago, photographed them, and then completely forgot about it! So, first of all the bag, for starters I couldn't believe it was in primark, and second, I couldn't believe it was only a tenner! It is a structured "triangle bag" and has little handles so you can carry it in the crook of your arm, or hold it in your hand. It also comes with a long detachable strap so you can carry it on your shoulder! It feels like a good quality bag, especially for the price but when you open it, the zip can sometimes get caught which is a bit annoying. It also has a faint plastic smell to it, but for the price you can't go wrong. Another thing that I picked up from primark were these tortoise shell wayfarer type sunglasses which were only £1! I then popped into Superdrug, and saw that the Maybelline Colour Tattoos were on offer for buy one get the second half price, so it would be rude not to, right? Anyway, I picked up On and On Bronze and Permanent Taupe, and have been loving them so far. On and On Bronze is my favourite out of the two, but Permanent Taupe is such a nice colour too! I wish Maybelline would bring out some more wearable shades! Review coming soon.

I then went into H&M and picked up a couple of things! Firstly, the grey skater/circle skirt. I have been looking for one of these for a while, I know Topshop do a few but I'm not a massive fan of skirts so I wasn't sure if I would wear it a lot or not, and quite a few that I have tried on were too big for me! But when I found this skirt and tried it on I instantly fell in love with it, as it fits almost perfectly! And with it being only £7, it doesn't matter if I only wear it a couple of times, although saying that, I think I shall be wearing this all through summer/autumn! Also from H&M, I bought this pretty white vest with laser cut outs, but it hasn't actually been cut out, if that makes any sense?! It was reduced from £12 to £4 so I just had to get it. It's quite long so I can wear it with leggings and my bum won't be showing! I can also tuck it into shorts when the weather gets a bit nicer. The last thing I bought was also from H&M and it is just a simple white vest. I got 2 sizes up (I am usually a size 8 but I got a size 12) only because there weren't any size 8s and being only £1.99 I couldn't resist. They had some really pretty colours too; some neon pinks and oranges. Surprisingly, it isn't too big and it's a nice loose fit. 


Thank you for reading, what things have you been buying recently?
