STATEMENT SLEEVES

PETITE Trumpet sleeve top, £12, Topshop
So, another trend I am absolutely loving at the moment is statement sleeves. I would be the first one to admit that my style can be boring at times, I'm not very adventurous, and I am an absolute worshipper of all things monochrome. So, me wandering around with massive flappy sleeves is kind of a big deal.
I think it's such a feminine design, and we need more of that right? I feel like their has been such a focus on boyish fashion that we've all lost sight of what constitutes 'girly', so yep, I'm all for frills, ruffles and flappy sleeves. Of course, Topshop made the perfect combo, making this a bardot crop top design in the process.
I actually wore this outfit for an interview, if you were wondering why I am unusually dressed in all black, however this top would work as a perfect combo to an denim skirt or even dress it up for a cocktails mate date.
Love them or hate them, statement sleeves are here for the season.

RIPPED HEM JEANS

MOTO Raw Hem Indigo Jamie Jeans- £40- Topshop
This trend is literally here, there, and everywhere at the moment. Whether it's a raw hem, let hem, or step hem, jeans are having a shabby chic makeover. Being only 5"3 AND 1/2, i'm not a fan of anything thats going to add extra length to my jeans- they only just fit my leg length as it is. However I do absolutely love step and let hems, which I am sure would look really flattering on somebody with longer legs!
Just a heads up, these jeans are not only bang on trend, but they are also super comfy. Topshop jeans tend to be stretchy, but this pair even more so. The only thing i'm not happy with is the price, and if I didn't get student discount, I wouldn't bother paying £40 for jeans. Actually what am I saying... with a Topshop addiction like mine of course I would splash out.

What do you think?

TOPSHOP BODIES


Crotchet body suit, £24, Topshop
I am in loveeee with bodies right now.... ok that sounded a bit creepy, but you know what I mean.
I find they are so versatile, I tend to wear this one underneath high waisted jeans for a summery day time look, but I would also wear a fancier lace body for a night out. The only thing is, they are extremely restrictive when you need the loo, they make you feel like a baby preparing to get their nappy changed whenever you undo those press studs, and your boyfriend will at some point have questioned why you are wearing a "swim suit". 
I particularly love this one, as although it is simple, the crotchet sides add a little extra detail and it is super comfy as it's material is a combination of cotton and latex. Also remember girlies, this will 100% enhance your figure, imagine it as an on trend pair of fat pants.

OOTD: CHRISTENING



Cross back slip dress, £29, Topshop
Just a quick OOTD post to feature the absolutely lovely and versatile slip dress I wore for my nephews christening on Saturday. Ok so I didn't actually get a full length shot of this dress on the day, which is helpful, but hey ho i recycled this outfit from my boyfriends graduation back in July so there you go!
I don't know about you, but as soon as I was invited to the christening panic set in, what on earth are you supposed to wear? It was a family occasion, so nothing too revealing, its a special occasion yet nothing too fancy would be appropriate, and also a religious celebration so nothing OTT. great. 
I don't think Topshop still sell the dress in this colour, but they do have ones similar. I like to think of it as a long cami... it didn't really look right on me with it having such a straight up and down shape, i tend to prefer something a bit more fitted. So, i found an old chiffon belt from a playsuit i wore 9534594754 years ago and used it to sinch in the waist of my dress, sorted!
Bad news, i clicked the dress in 3 places, HELP?!

Dip Dye Vibes.

 
                                                   Dip dye rib jumper, £39, Topshop
 
As soon as I spotted this on Topshop's Facebook and Instagram pages I knew I had to snap this one up! This is definitely not something I would usually go for, however this jumper makes the perfect cosy winter jumper.
 
Of course sticking with my usual monochrome tones, the dip dye effect also introduces purple hues as the jumper fades from cream to black. The oversized effect and longer back design makes this a tricky one to fit, I had to buy a size 6 and it was still too big and long on the sleeves for my liking, although it is super cosy! So if you are thinking of buying this jumper, definitely try the size below first.
 
Due to the nature of the material, the jumper can also carry static, however this goes away after the first wear. I absolutely love the dip dye effect, although my boyfriend actually referred to it as a 'PowerPoint presentation gradient effect, mixed with a Newcastle supporter'... yup.
 
I originally didn't buy this jumper when I first tried it in store, and is now out of stock online, however if you do want to find one, it is my understanding that these jumpers are now in the 'last chance to buy' section, or you can check the in store stock levels as I did through their website.
 
For £39, this is definitely an investment piece you need to add to your winter wardrobe. What do you think? Leave me a comment below! :)

BLOGMAS #19- OOTD CHRISTMAS PARTY

 
You have probably heard me banging on about Christmas party outfits and panicking about what to wear for my work party on Friday, so I thought I would share with you the outfit I finally wore!
 
I was wearing....
 
Strappy lace bodycon- £39- Topshop
SAGITTARIUS Platform shoes, £58, Topshop
Gold sequin embellished clutch- £39- New Look
 
I tried to keep my outfit quite simple... I think everyone panics a little over trying to get the balance between night out/ party wear, and something appropriate for being out with your work colleagues! If you're wondering what my friend was wearing- it was the khaki kimono swing dress, £45 from River Island. I thought she looked amazing! Such a subtle but very festive dress...
 
Have you had your Christmas party yet? What did you wear?

BLOGMAS #10- SELFRIDGES

 
Okay I basically just wanted to write this post so that I could show off my Santa pics... I got so excited I just had to have a picture! I feel like a lot of 'Santas' look a bit crappy, but Selfridges definitely had a good one! Their Christmas section was amazinggg as well come to mention it!
 
Wednesday was spent on Oxford Street doing  a spot of Christmas shopping in our free time, I visited Selfridges, Topshop.... almost had a breakdown over how much stuff I wanted- but could not afford in there, Victoria Secret and Aldo.
 
Despite not buying a lot, I would definitely recommend Selfridges for personalised gifts and awesome Christmas decorations, Topshop for your Christmas party outfit, ALDO for some great party shoe offers, oh and Victoria Secret have their Victoria Secret fashion show items in stock now!!
 
What have you all been up too? Leave me a comment below!

LONG WEEKEND IN PICTURES

Just a quick little post I thought I would share....my weekend in pictures, thankfully I also had Friday and Monday off work too! Although now I have no more holidays to take till Christmas, boooo.
 
Anyway, I spent my Thursday evening at the fireworks in Hyde Park- Leeds, I don't know about you but I love firework displays, there was no way I was missing out this bonfire night! I then made the most of my Friday and headed to York. York is one of my most favourite places, so beautiful and unique. Following a day shopping- in particular 'The Cat Gallery', 'Christmas angels' and 'The Disney Store'... starting to get an idea of the type of person I am?!... me and my boyfriend took a stroll in the park before heading home- I just loved how autumnal it looked!
 
Saturday was a bad day for my bank balance- while back in Leeds I managed to bag myself some  River Island winter boots, the most perfect Topshop Christmas pyjamas , some new New Look basic tops, jeans... and not to mention my binge in Victoria's Secret...
 
Sunday was more chilled and I went to the cinema to see Hotel Transylvania 2... as cheesy as it sounds I just love kids films, so good. Monday was not a good day with just a dentist visit on my day off :(
 
 
What did you all get up too? Leave me a comment below! :)

OOTD- A WEEKEND IN THE CITY

Ankle shoe boots, New Look (last year)/ MOTO Jamie ripped jeans, Topshop (Last year), Cross over cotton floaty cami, Topshop/ Michael Kors rose gold chronograph watch/ Teya enamel button necklace, Ted Baker at Fenwicks, £28/ Cardigan, Topshop (years ago). 
 
Okay it's not actually my outfit of today but it was my favourite outfit of this weekend...
 
I wore this outfit for Notting hill carnival, shopping on Oxford Street, and strolling through London's St James' park. Firstly... don't wear heels around London- even if you do claim that they are 'the comfiest shoes you own' because after walking miles to and around Notting Hill, and from bond street, down Oxford Street to the South bank, my feet were crippled! Even days later after I got home, my ankle feels so weak, but I guess it is a case of 'no pain, no gain'!
 
As for my jeans, I took a risk- I hadn't worn these before and also struggled to get them on last year, so yes they were a little snug... not fab for walking around all day! As we are coming out of the summer season now- since when did we even get a summer?... I felt it time to start transitioning my outfits into more of an Autumnal vibe, hence the very warm looking cardi...
 
As always, accessories are key. I tend to always wear two rings and my Michael Kors watch, and I also chose to wear my new Ted Baker necklace!
 
By writing this post I've actually noticed how old my clothes are... they were nearly all bought last year... I definitely need a shopping spree! 
 
What do you think? How are you transitioning your outfits from Summer to Autumn? Let me know below! :)

OOTD: Autumnal Vibes

 I'm wearing: Moto black ripped Jamie jeans, £42, Topshop| Lace hem crop top, £28, Topshop| Red tartan banket scarf, £15, River Island| Black snake panel black block ankle boots, £38, River Island| Faux fur leather jacket, Topshop
Okay so this outfit was actually a couple of days ago but hey ho, I still wanted to share! I was so so excited on friday as I was going home for the first time since going back to uni this year (I live in Durham but go to uni in Leeds) and honestly I was just so so so excited to go back to see my kittens, no word of a lie, as cringey as it sounds the reason I was going home was for their 1st birthday... am I the only crazy cat lady who would do that, or are there more of you out there?! 

So, I think I can safely say that we are definitely into the autumn season now, I have been so so excited to grab my cosy jumpers, gloves and scarf  I think it is so fun transforming your wardrobe ready for the new season! The main reason I wanted to share this outfit with you is because 2 of the items I only just bought this week, firstly the lace hem jumper was in the Topshop sale this week... you can't really see the colour very well but it is baby pink and 3/4 sleeve, and seen as it can be warm at times during the autumn, it isn't really very thick, it is a light and fluffy but still cosy fabric which makes it perfect for this season! Secondly, I bought this tartan scarf from River Island, if any of you have been reading my recent posts you will know that I have already got a baby pink tartan scarf, but it is a lot thicker than this one. The main reason I bought this one is for the colour, I am not a fan of bold red tartan but this is more of a cranberry/ burgundy which is my ultimate fave, it is also very soft but is quite light which means it isn't too hot for the current weather. 

As for the ripped jeans, I will not stop wearing these until at least late November, there's nothing wrong with having your knees out at this time of year! Hahaha. These jeans are so so popular at the moment so I guess I will just wait until other people stop wearing them! The leather jacket accompanys almost every outfit I wear, I bought this one around 2 years ago from Topshop and I just find that it is such a great staple piece which should be in everybody's wardrobe, honestly it goes with anything! Similarly, my winter boots also make a great addition to most outfits!

What do you think of my outfit? What have you all been wearing this season? Leave me a comment below! :)

Autumn Wardrobe Haul

 
Sheer Star embellished body, £25, Topshop| Metallic Top, £17.99 New Look| TFNC textured collar sheer top, £25, Topshop| Embellished necklace jumper, £14, Primark| Cream boxy top, £12.99, New Look| Lace cream tee, £16, Topshop| Lilac chiffon shirt, £20, Dorothy Perkins| Scallop hem dusky pink top, £12.99, New Look
Beth Felt zip front A-line skirt off white, £19.99, Missguided| Glitter wrap skirt, £32, Topshop| Tartan pink scarf, £5, Primark, Bunny pyjama bottoms, £5, Primark| Chunky leather side zip boots, £38, River Island| Textured cream top, £12.99, H & M| Velvet side handbag, £34.99, H&M
Fluffy cream dressing gown, £14.99, New Look| Bellissimo Glitter Lips set, £13, Bellisimo at Topshop
 
When I was taking the pictures for this post I was literally horrified at the realisation of how many new things I have bought in the past 2 WEEKS, yep, 2 weeks... It isn't good, and neither is my bank balance. I can safely say that I have certainly taken advantage of the student lock ins, 20% student discounts and free time between uni sessions to go shopping and pick up some bargains. There really is no excuse for the amount of stuff I have bought, but honestly this was my autumn haul, I did seriously need to revamp my wardrobe in time for the colder months, is it just me or has it suddenly got really cold!?
 
There is no way I am going to talk through every one of these items to try and justify my spending, or this post would be a mile long, however I did need some new tees, I really did only have summer tops which were not appropriate at all... similarly I have needed to stock up on some cosy bits and pieces including my dressing gown (my heating is off), scarf (I actually bought this off my friend as I loved it so much) and this Primark jumper which I am actually really impressed with, it is great quality! I was also in desperate need of some new winter boots, so hey ho I ended up with these beauties.
 
As for the skirts, glitter lips set, body, handbag... these were such impulse buys which I couldn't resist, you know when you see something which is fresh into the store and you instantly know that it's going to be popular? Well seeing as though I literally go shopping every day I notice these things, which is why you should always bag something you love while you can! Remember girlies, nothing haunts you more than a item of clothing you chose not to buy...
 
In my defence 2 or 3 of these things were bought by my boyfriend AND I got 10/20% discount off the majority of all of this so I guess it isn't as bad. The Bellisimo lip glitter kit was one of my favourite purchases I cant wait to try it out! Although it was £13, the concession stand was only in Topshop over the weekend so I had to get it while I could, check back in a few days to see my review of it!
 
So, what have you all been buying recently? If you have a student loan, how much of it do you actually have left of it right now haha? What do you think of my autumn wardrobe haul? Leave me a comment below! :)

My Freshers Outfits!

Just a quick post as I thought that I would share with you the outfits that I wore for freshers week! Honestly, I never ever make an effort for nights out, my last freshers literally consisted of wearing disco pants and a cami so after buying so much new stuff this summer, I decided to actually make an effort this year!
I have to admit, I am the worst when it comes to buying nice clothes, it's like I just want to preserve them, I'm literally just so scared of some idiot spilling a drink on me or something getting dirty! So yeah, I end up just wearing the same things over and over because all of my nice bits and bobs are safe in my wardrobe!
 
Outfit 1: Dogtooth skirt- £22- Topshop/ Shoe ankle boots- £29.99- New Look/ Mesh crop top (part of a set)- £30- Stylish
 
Outfit 2: Off the shoulder black mini dress- £9.99- Missguided/ Ankle cut out boots- £35- ARK
 
Outfit 3: Lace bralet- £22- Topshop/ Velvet A-line skirt- £32- Topshop/ Cut out ankle boots- £35- ARK
 
If you were wondering, the reason why I only have 3 outfits is because I mixed and matched the rest of the week hehe, what is your fave night out outfit? Did you go to freshers? What did you wear? Leave me a comment below! :)

London Fashion Weekend

I'm wearing: Leather jacket- £52- Topshop| Aztec monochrome pelmet skirt- £36- Topshop| Michael Kors rose gold chronograph watch- £249- Ernest Jones| Lace trim black jersey tee, £16, Topshop.
For those of you that  have visited London Fashion Week or London Fashion Weekend at Somerset House will know how much of a fantastic experience it is, even my boyfriend loved it! It was our second visit to London Fashion Weekend this year and the atmosphere was just incredible, I just love seeing what everyone wears for the occasion, it just seems like everyone wants to impress! One of the main aspects of the weekend event is being able to shop straight from the designers in the beautiful surroundings of Somerset House, I honestly saw some fabulous items that I wanted so bad, one of which was a sheer tank embellished with pearl flowers, it honestly was the cutest thing I've ever seen, although I highly doubt I would ever be able to justify a suitable occasion to wear it.
 
Unfortunately for me  I didn't even make it to the catwalk show, I know, absolutely devastated. The first catwalk show I saw in February was just incredible and I was so exited to see the trend catwalk this year but I felt very ill, all the excitement and heat meant I had to give it a miss unfortunately, but I have scoured YouTube to find footage of the event and I have to say, for whoever who actually went to the show it must have been amazing!
 
So, the 4 key trends for S/S15 include:
 
-Onle and only
-Candy crush
-Jungle fever
-Fairy tale ending
 
One of my favourite things about London Fashion Weekend is the free designer tote bag you get filled with lovely little bits and pieces, I will admit that this season I was a little disappointed, although I really like the Lulu Guinness tote, I found that a lot of the items in the bag were just the same as February freebies, for example I got exactly the same Essie nail polish as last season and also LavAzza coffee for a machine I don't have! , but I was pleased to see that there was one of my favourite Maybelline mascaras, Label.M shine spray, Garnier cleansing wipe and Urban fruit (pineapple) but I was bemused to see Artelac Rebalance eyedrops in my bag... honestly I thought they had been put in my bag by mistake! The good thing is though, seen as my boyfriend also got a tote bag, it means I get double the freebies!
Topshop Buys: Faux leather quilted mini skirt- £38| The Little Mermaid pyjama set- £22| Metallic Jumper- £36
Finally, as I didn't make it to the trend show, we decided that we would hit Oxford Street, first stop, Topshop. As I don't really get to see my boyfriend all that much, he decided he would treat me to some bits and bobs from Topshop, I just love this faux leather quilted skirt, it is so versatile, not only do I intend dressing this up for a night out, I also will be wearing it for work and for teaming with tights in the daytime. These pj's are honestly the cutest, I am a massive Disney fan and you have literally no idea how long I have wanted them for, there are also The Lion King, The Simpsons and Aladdin to name a few of the sleepwear and underwear sets in Topshop at the moment. Finally, I decided to get a new jumper, I think that the autumn season is literally the hardest season to dress for, its too warm to wear a coat, but then there can be a chilly breeze which means you can't go out without one, so, my solution is to now just wear a jumper.
 
Did you go to London Fashion Weekend, or have you ever been? What did you think? Leave me a comment below! :)

Clothes Haul: Part 1

If you're wondering why the post is titled 'part one' it is basically because I have also had an online spending spree, and I am still waiting for those items to be delivered... I have also just registered for a shopping student lock in for when I return to university in a couple of weeks! As you can imagine, the majority of my haul is from Topshop, but for once I have actually ventured out a little and found some fab pieces from New Look, Urban Outfitters and even George at ASDA.. I absolutely fell in love with this Pippa Lynn metallic skirt even though it is very out of my comfort zone, I love it! I have also been lusting after these ripped jeans for some time now they are an essential right now! For London Fashion week I am also planning to wear the lace top with the lace trim pelmet skirt and some new boots and leather jacket... let me know what you think girlies! :)
Pippa Lynn Cracked metallic skirt in silver- £45- Urban Outfitters   
MOTO Jamie black ripped jeans- £42- Topshop
Replica Mulberry Clutch- £30- (Local boutique)
Textured lace hem pelmet skirt- £36- Topshop
Scallop Lace crop tee- £36- Topshop
Berry scallop hem top- £12.99- New Look
Plain tee- £4- George at ASDA

OOTD: ARK


Today is the day! I am literally like a small child at the moment because today I go on holiday... to DISNEY LAND. Not one of you can say that if you were going you wouldn't be excited! Hehe. Anyway as you can imagine there will be a certain lack of blogging from me over the next couple of weeks, I haven't just disappeared :')
 
So before I go I thought I would quickly share a little outfit of the day post with you. Admittedly it is nothing special but hey ho I'm very fond of this top! The one thing I do dislike about going on holiday is the travelling, and as I will be going via car and Eurostar it means a very long car journey from the North East, hmph.
 
I am wearing: AX Paris daisy Print zip back top, £12.99, ARK| Joni high waisted jeans, £36, Topshop
 
I particularly love this top as it is a way of looking summery, even if you are wearing black as the daisy print is so cute! (please excuse the creases) It also looks really lovely with high waist denim shorts, as for my jeans, I know that high waist tight jeans aren't always the most comfiest travel clothes option, but if any of you have these joni jeans you will know how comfy they really are, and the best thing is, you can wear them and wash them over and over and they won't stretch out of place!
 
What do you tend to wear for travelling? Leave me a comment below! :)

Birthday Shopping!

One of the things I love about birthdays is the presents and receiving money to buy those bits and bobs you've had your eye on for months but couldn't afford, I didn't really get that many presents this year so at the weekend I had one of the best shopping days I have had in ages, and really treated myself ! Luckily I didn't spend all of my money, so hopefully another shopping day will be on the cards in the near future!
Tiara silver & cubic zirconia ring- £40- Pandora| Tile stitch  leather crossbody bag- £38- Topshop| MOTO Authentic ripped skinny jeans- £45- Topshop| Petite floral trousers- £24- Dorothy Perkins| Fuchsia underwear set- £4- Primark

Okay so don't think I go and buy bra and nickers for my birthday presents :') I just picked this cute little set up because firstly, I seriously have no matching sets of underwear! And secondly, I don't know if you have noticed, but in Primark at the moment they have so many gorgeous underwear sets for just £4, bargain! This is seriously no joke, I made 3 trips to Topshop and tried at least 10 pairs of jeans on before deciding on these ones, and although I think they are a little pricey for Topshop jeans I fell in love with them! Although I have 2 pairs of 'Joni' jeans already, I just couldn't resist buying these as I wanted to venture into the world of ripped jeans...The bag I  bought has been something I have wanted for quite a while now, I just love it! I was honestly a little bit heartbroken when Topshop website told me it was "no longer available" but I managed to find 3 of them left in store thank goodness! If  you're a fan of comfortable style I highly recommend these Dorothy Perkins trousers, although they feel like you're wearing your pj's they look absolutely gorgeous and so summery! I would say though they are quite loose fitting so you might be like me and need a smaller size than usual.

Finally, I bought this beautiful Pandora ring, they really are one of my absolute favourite jewellery stores as they always have such gorgeous and pretty items that are such high quality! What have you all been buying recently? Leave me a comment below! :)

OOTD: jeans & jellies

I'm wearing: White crochet cami, New Look| Moto mid stone wash Joni jeans, £36, Topshop| Silver glitter jelly sandals, £6, Primark

I never usually have time to put one of these posts together as I tend to get dressed very quickly and I'm off out as I am usually late and have no time to take pictures of what I'm wearing! Today though the weather is still beautiful thankfully, even if it is a little too hot, (best not complain) and I will be spending my day in town, so I have opted for my favourite comfy jeans, although I'm sure I will begin to regret this choice as the day gets hotter. I have also chosen to wear one of my favourite cami's, I actually picked this up in New Look sale 4 years ago for just £2 and it has made an appearance in my summer outfits ever since, thrifty or what?! I just love this, as a loose floaty cami is perfect for warmer weather, and the crochet detail is so cute and very on trend at the moment. Finally I have thrown on my beloved jelly sandals which instead of buying £20 Juju jellies, I managed to pick these up a couple of months ago for just £6 in Primark! Surprisingly they actually are very comfy, I just love how these have come back into fashion because I adored mine when I was younger!

What do you think of my outfit? What would be your perfect summer outfit? Leave me a comment below! :)

June Newbies!

One of the main reasons I have managed to spend so much money this June, yet having so little money is due mostly to the Topshop sale! Honestly I have managed to find so many great buys from there which isn't just cheap crap, aha, also I finally managed to pick up one of these Aztec monochrome pelmet skirts, lace bralets and flat form sandals which have been so sought after I am so pleased to have finally found some! Basically I think this whole recent buys list is from Topshop, never mind at least my wardrobe is almost ready for summer! What do you think of my recent buys? What have you all been buying recently? :)

OOTD: Birthday Night Out

In recent weeks I must admit I have been a bit down in the dumps, and therefore I just haven't been in the mood to write on my blog, hence why this is my first post in over a week! Hopefully I can start to get back to my usual blogging routine ASAP. Anyway, I thought I would kick the week off an outfit of the day post which I haven't done in a while, typical me though this outfit was actually worn last week at one of my best friends 19th birthday! My favourite part of this outfit is most certainly the Aztec skirt I hunted high and low for from Topshop which has been in and out of stock for weeks due to its popularity and I finally found my size in OUTFIT  a couple of weeks ago and it has now since become unavailable. I just love Aztec and thankfully it is so on trend at the moment meaning it is all over the high street. I teamed my skirt with a lovely lace crop originally from Urban Outfitters which I picked up from depop, and as always I wore a pair of 6'' heels. I decided to keep my accessories and make up simple with just my Michael Kors watch and a small necklace and finally adding a pop of colour with my lipstick (MAC Satin 'Rebel') which as anyone who knows me knows that I usually use it to 'dress up' any outfit :') What do you think of my outfit? Leave me a comment below! :)

Today's buys!

I was soooo busy with exams before Christmas, and since Christmas I haven't really had the chance to go shopping, so today was the first time I had been in so long! I was is desperate need of some new makeup because I was literally scraping the bottles, and once I had revamped my makeup bag, I thought I would have a little look at the sales! Although some stores such as ASDA, TESCO & Savers have now removed the Rimmel London offer of "everything under £5" (the foundation I use is £7.99) I managed to find that Boots surprisingly were still using this offer! Although I usually really dislike sales shopping as I can never find anything I actually want, I have found the best sale is at Topshop, there are so many bargains in there, and it isn't all crap nobody wants! aha, I managed to pick up a jumper and a top from there, and found Dorothy Perkins had a particularly good jewellery sale, so you should definitely have a look! Below are the little bits and bobs I picked up, have you picked up a particularly good bargain from the January sales? Are you a sales lover or a sales hater? :)
