Primark, MAC, and Catch Up!

Hey everyone! It's been nearly a week since my last post but I've been a busy bee with work and other things! Just a few things that I am really excited about....two weeks today until I start University! I literally cannot wait, I've met a girl called Samantha who is on the same course as me and I can't wait to meet her. My family and I are also moving house, which I'm okay about...don't really want to but you've obviously got to do what your parents want! We went to see a gorgeous cottage like house and it was beautiful. Really 'old' looking with wooden beams e.t.c which is totally my Mam's dream house so fingers crossed there! Our house is getting valued on Thursday so it's all really happening! I've got SO much to look forward to these months leading up to Christmas, so bring it on!

Anyway, sorry about that little ramble! This post is about my recent visit to the Metro Centre in Newcastle. I mainly got jewellery but got a couple items of clothing and a new bag for Uni!














I got this bag from Primark and I just love it! I love the shape of it and it fits my books and notebooks in perfectly! I can even fit some perfume, deodorant and make-up bag in it! The colour of the bag is lush, I'm such a massive fan of brown at the moment!





I adore these earrings. As you can see they were only £1.50 and they have a semi precious stone hanging at the bottom of a gold chain. The top has a pink diamond and I just think they are stunning.












Again, these are purchases from Primark. I think they were £2.50 and I love earrings like these. I'm also a huge fan of gold costume jewellery. The green stone in middle stands out a mile! I wore these earrings on Saturday night when I went out :)








This absolutely gorgeous necklace was £4.00 and what  a bloody bargin! My friend bought a necklace like this for £14.00 from Topshop and she wasn't too pleased when I showed her this cheap version! You wouldn't even know that it was a cheaper version though! I love it.












These earrings were only £1.00. They are outlined in diamonds and have a vintage look about them. I love the colours of the face and the background. I just think they look like they are worth more than a pound!










I also got a couple of clothes but they are already in the wash! I bought a gorgeous comfy looking blue and white stripy jumper, a black scarf for winter as I have quite a walk to do to Uni and need to be warm, and some jeggings. I also bought some exfoliating gloves because when my tan starts to come off, I look like a patchy mess! 






While looking around the Metro Centre I came across a MAC counter in House of Fraser. Excited is a understatement! I walked around the whole section literally 20 times scanning every item wishing I could buy everything. I had to bear in mind that I am going to Uni and need to save for freshers so I ended up at the Lipstick counter. I looked at every lipstick possible in a daze. Eventually I was draw to Vegas Volt. As soon as I applied it to my lips, I knew that this colour was for me! YEYYY


I went to a party on the Saturday night and then out around town, I bought a new top from Topshop with a wolf on and wore it with my high waisted shorts and new heels from Miss Selfridge. The top is in the wash because I got beer all over myself. Clever girl. 

So there we go guys, a wee catch up and wee haul! Hope you are all well, I'm gonna do a post about my extensions....bloody bargin if you ask me! Stay stunned! ;)

Mini Primark Haul

Hello lovelys! Just a mini Primark haul because I really wanted to show these things off because I just think they look fab,



The ring in the top image is stunning! I've wanted a ring like this for ages. It looks medieval almost! I adore the large blue stone with amber streaks running through, it gives this ring a edgy and quirky look! I wear it on my index finger because I prefer it on that finger! It looks fab and I love to match it up with high waisted shorts and a vest tucked in. This ring gives your outfit and edge! Love it and I think it was only £1.50! BARGINNN! 

The ring in the bottom image is also gorgeous! The diamonds and pattern around the ring make it stand out and the white on the blue background makes the ring look victorian. I wear this ring on my index finger as well, it just looks better on that finger! Again for just £1.50.



I thought that these earrings were so cute! They were only £1.00 and I just loved them as soon as I saw them! I love the design of them and the diamonds at the top make them sparkle!





 I also picked up these cute little clips for £2.50. The flower design grabbed my attention! I have really long hair and I get so annoyed with it sometimes and I thought these would be perfect to clip my hair up! They are really strong too and you can feel that they won't let your hair slip out.



And I lastly picked up this make-up bag! I really needed a new one that would be able to fit all my make-up in because I have lots! I loved this lepord print design and the gold 'sign' on the front that says 'Make me gorgeous'. The material is a knock off leather effect and you can feel that it isn't going to snap at the heavy weight of your make-up!



This is what the inside of the bag looks like! As you can see its quite deep and will be able to fit lots of make-up in! The pink lining also gives it that girly look and feeling and also allows you to find your make-up easily. The mirror is a cute little bonus BUT mine was smashed :( never mind though! It was £4.00.

So there we go! Just a mini haul :) I love Primark and all the clothes and jewelery! Wish there was one near me, the nearest one is Newcastle!

Let me know if you have the same items and what you think of them!
