New Items!

So today i went out to one of my local towns and i picked up a few items in a couple shops that i thought i'd show you!

So the first shop i went into was New Look, and as its a week day most people are at school/work/college etc, but today is my day off so i thought i would make the most of it!

£15.99

The first thing i picked up in there was this bag. I don't really have an everyday bag at the moment so this is perfect to pack all of my essentials in when out and about! Apparently (according to the label) its called a 'Crosby Croc Flap Sad) which doesn't really make much sense. But it basically has a crocodile print on it and two different handles. It has the small handle on the top which is perfect for grabbing it in a rush or just as a larger handle bag. And the second handle is a long thin strap which is perfect for carrying it over your shoulder or as a cross bag, if you lengthened the straps a wee bit.

£1.99 each or 3 for £4.00!

The second things i picked up were these socks.They were actually on an offer at the time and they were 3 for £4! Which i thought was a bargain.. and i cannot resist one of those. Now the weathers colder i like to wear covered over pump type things on my feet, which are more comfortable in the winter (than dolly shoes anyway), and which also means i can wear more jazzy socks than the plain old black ones from Matalan (which are, by the way, the comfiest socks ever). So of course i had to get some dotty ones, some with a raccoon and some with iguanas on! Perfect

£7.99

The third thing i spotted when i was on the way to the queue was this silky royal blue snood, with some sort of bird on (i am no good with bird names). I thought it was really nice and pretty warm for college when im walking to and from the bus stop with all this wind and rain at the moment. It feels really light and not too heavy, i hate it when scarfs feel like they are weighing you down! They had loads of different patterns and colour too so you should definitely go check em out.

£4.99

The last item that i spotted, which was actually when i was stood in the queue! Was this water bottle, every time i take a used sports bottle or screw top it usually leaks, even if its a tiny bit, and it really started to frustrate me! So i thought i would invest in this and it would make sure my bag doesn't get all sticky and with a nice pattern too! Although the screw top is a bit weird, it will definitely make sure that everything is secure in my bag :)

So after going to New Look i walked up the road and into Boots (i couldn't resist). I also had £18.00 to spend on my Boots advantage card! Thanks Boots!

£6.99

I only picked up two items from boots as i had gone a wee bit over what i was wanting to spend in New Look (oops!). My friend recommended that i should go out and get a BB cream.. I have wanted to try one for a while now but I've settled into my foundation routine quite well and didnt really want to buy anything for the sake of it. But as soon as i saw this, i tried it on and i loved it. It has a really smooth and creamy consistency and, as it says, has 8 things in 1! Can't really get much better than that! For the price anyway. So, like my friend said, it will be perfect for summer! No more fussing around with Moisturiser or Primer or any of that jazz.

£5.60

The last thing that i picked up from Boots was this mug. Even though its not Christmas i don't think it is too christmassy! It will be perfect for my hot chocolates, which if you haven't tried the Aero mint hot chocolate then you haven't lived, at night with all the marshmallows and whipped cream mmm! It isn't too big and it isn't one of those stupid tiny cups that are just enough for those coffee shots bleugh. So i thought this was really handy! Especially with all those humbugs inside.

So that was all i picked up today! I hope it was interesting and not too boring! My nail varnish collection will be up next Tuesday, if all goes to plan, and i will speak on Sunday! 

Cheerio!
