A/W Haul.. part 1

I say this is part 1 of my Autumn/Winter haul as there will probably be a few in the next month or so! I was in desperate need of some essentials now that the weather has changed and you can definitely feel a chill in the air. The items I got do feature quite a lot of black but I have hardly anything black in my wardrobe as I usually go for brown or grey so needed a change! I was in need of a pair of black skinny jeans and bought the ones from Primark for £11 which are so so comfy. You can’t go wrong for that price and I know I will get so much wear out of them. I’ve already bought a pair in a dark blue too! I also got these from the New Primark near Tottenham Court Road, it is such a big store and I could have spent hours in there but I had my boyfriend with me that hates shopping (especially in crowded places) so I had to resist tormenting him!

I also picked up a couple of pairs of black boots; the first from Primark which were only £20 and great for everyday wear, and the second are the ones that I know everyone has from Topshop, but I really like them and couldn’t find alternatives that were as nice!

I also got this faux leather jacket from Berska while in London as I needed a new “leather” jacket and like the contrasting material on the arms. This was £39.99 which I thought was a good price!

The two peplum tops were from Matalan and are £12 each but I got 25% off when they were having an offer. They are such good material too and I love the colours! I also got the black bag with the discount too but this is only £12 full price too!

And the final bits are the necklace and earrings I picked up in the New Look sale; the necklace for £2 and the earrings for £1.. bargain. I love that the earrings are vintage looking too!

I now need to look for a winter coat but not sure what to go for. I currently have my eye on this one and this one from Lipsy, althought they may not be the warmest of coats. What do you think? 

Wednesday Wishlist

I am currently on a spending ban and have actually done quite well, (minus a new pair of trousers and a necklace, but they were essential!) and have so far gone about 3 weeks. I am doing okay with beauty items and making sure I use up all the stuff I currently have. But the thing I am finding the hardest is not buying clothes, as I am so ready to start buying items for my Autumn wardrobe and I'm pretty much over Summer. I didn’t have a holiday this year so really didn’t get into the Sumer mood very much! So I have done a wish list of items I really want at the moment, my list is extremely long at the moment so there are plenty of other things I want that you will probably see in the coming weeks! 

Bag/Top/Jacket
Socks/Boots/Concealer
Brushes/Fragrance Diffuser/Eye-shadows

I am in LOVE with this bag and I really like the colour, studding and just everything about it!

I also think this peplum top is really nice and can’t believe I haven’t bought a peplum top yet! I also really want this River Island jacket even though loads of people have them I still like it. The socks are really cute and would look nice with a little skirt or dress for winter. Last year I only had brown and grey boots so I definitely need a black pair this year, and these are cheap from Ebay.

I am dying to get my hands on the Real Techniques brushes! Also the UD Naked 2 palette and Collection concealer, these are some essentials I need in my make-up collection.

The other item I have on my wish list is a room fragrance diffuser as I am fed up of using the automatic room sprays. I want one of these diffusers that looks pretty too and need to find a nice smelling one that isn’t too expensive. So if anyone knows of any nice ones send the suggestions this way!
