#10 New In: Holiday/Sale Haul: Part 2: Shoes & Accessories: Dorothy Perkins, Primark, Topshop, River Island & Select

Dorothy Perkins:

I love this necklace. It's a real statement piece! I think the black rope contrast really well with the gold chains. It was half price in the sale and I got student discount too! It's probably one of my favourite pieces I've bought.

Also half price in their sale and I got student discount too. I loved the turquoise bluey/green against the silver and it'll be a nice addition to my holiday outfits.

River Island:
£5
There are 5 ear cuffs in this pack, so really each ear cuff was £1, which I think is really good. There's a nice mix of coloured metals in there with the added different design, gem and a charm on each. I love ear cuffs...

Topshop:

...So I got some moreeee! Only this time in Topshop. There is a whole variety on here so I can definitely mix and match them!

 Primark:
£3
I bought ones really similar to these from ASOS the other day and I love how you can wear as many as you like, stack them and mix and match them. These were only £3 so I wanted to add them to my collection.

 £4
I love, love, love this necklace. It's got a tribal edge to it with the colours and design. I love the red and turquoise and think it would look brilliant against a plain canvas like a black top. Really cheap for a statement necklace too!

Again... quite ethnic and boho is this necklace. I can't remember how much it cost but it was hardly anything. I love the turquoise colour in it (Can you tell there's a theme!). I think this would look nice with a floaty, summery dress.

£3 each
How cute are these... they match! I love these, they look quite ethnic with the silver, red and turquoise. I wore the cuff on a night out the other day and I love it. I think the earrings will look great too as I've got short hair.

 £6
Love these. I've always wanted to try the heel-less wedges but never got round to it, so when I spotted them in primark at less than half price, I definitely wanted to give them a go. They're a lovely colour, perfect coral for summer and would look really pretty with a nice floaty dress.

£12, £6
I picked these up as I didn't have any sandals or shoes that I could wear on a holiday. They were half price (I didn't want to buy full price as I didn't think I'd get my wear out of sandals really) and they don't have that in between your toes thingy that I HATE! The nude/tan colour is the perfect colour for me as I can put them with any colour and not have to worry that they don't match. 

£12 or £10 (Can't remember) £6
Same here as with the last. No in between the toes thingy, black in colour to match with outfits easy and half price. Really simple to wear and I really liked the design in studs.

 Select:

I picked these up before I'd bought sandals as I wasn't too sure what I wanted, they were on sale like the others and are sooo simple and easy to wear because of the plain nude colour. I loved the rose gold spikes on the back too for the added edge.

I hope you've liked seeing what I've bought recently.
Have you got any holiday's planned or bought anything specifically for going away?

OOTD: Happy Birthday Mum! Part 1: The Blue Blouse


Blouse- George at Asda
Leggings- Select
Necklace- Dorothy Perkins
Heels- Primark

Hey everyone! So today's outfit post is something that I actually wore out yesterday. It's my mum birthday today... she's probably reading this at some point so HAPPPY BIIRTTHHDDAAYYY!... and her friends from work organised to go out for a meal yesterday and I tagged along too. Who can resist going out for a meal?! So I chose this to wear this. The blue blouse is something I featured in a new in post quite a while back but it was the first I'd worn it yesterday, I think it only cost me around £6 in the sale and I just absolutely love the colour of it. I paired it with my simple black go-to leggings as I didn't want to get too dressed up and wear a skirt as we weren't going anywhere reaaallly posh, nor did I want to wear something that would be tighter once I had a load of food in me! I didn't want a food baby showing, haha.

Anyway... I'm pretty sure the whole family have had a great day today, enjoying my mum's birthday with her. She's had loads of fantastic presents and birthday cards and flowers, it's been like Christmas here. She had 2 birthday cakes as well and we're going out for a family meal tomorrow too, so I can't wait for that! However, that does mean my bikini body is probably going down the drain, haha, oh well.. it's for a good cause ;)

Hope you've all had a great day!
