New Look sale haul

 So my student loan comes through and I tell myself I won't spend any money... and then I accidentally fell into the New Look sale - oops!

 I really should be banned from buying jewellery because I never wear it. It gets shoved in a drawer and then ends up on ebay one day because the only jewellery I ever wear is my ring off my mom and dad and my bracelets off my boyfriend. This silver and gold spike bracelet was reduced to £1 though so I couldn't resist!

I also picked up this necklace because I've been after a chunky OTT necklace for ages to wear with my plain white tops and dresses on nights out. This actually has one of the spikes missing at the bottom but considering it was only £1 I figured it didn't really matter and no one would notice!

 I've wanted this swing cami for ages so when I saw it reduced to £3 I grabbed it! It's slightly cropped so not really ideal for winter but I think it could work layered up and the colour is very autumn/winter. I love this! Apologies for the fact it's really creased!

 Next I picked up this stag print vest purely because I'm excited for Christmas already and it's basically got reindeer on!!!! Again, it's quite summery and I wasn't a massive fan of the sleeves/neck line but I thought it would look cute and wintery under a chunky, fluffly cardigan! This was reduced to £4.

 This cami is quite similar to the first one but is made of a darker blue chiffony material. I expected it to be quite see through but it's actually not at all, I really like the colour of these camis! This was £5, so a bit more than the others but still quite a bargain!

 Finally, I picked up this aztec print crop top. I own quite a few crop tops already so probably didn't need another one but I like to wear these on nights out with a black skirt. The way I think is that I would wear this top with a skirt I already have so the total cost of the outfit would be £3, whereas if I got a brand new dress it would cost a lot more and therefore I did need another crop top, right?

In total for 4 tops, a necklace and a bracelet I spent £17. Without the necklace which doesn't have the original price tag on, originally it would have all cost £39 so I'd say that was a pretty good saving!!

What did you guys pick up in the New Look sale?

Chockers shoes haul - boots & wellies!

After eyeing up the shoes at Chockers for months I finally decided that it was time to purchase some autumn/winter boots! It took me ages to decide which pair to chose, I think it's so hard to tell the shape of boots without physically seeing them and with me being so picky it was a bit risky ordering online! Eventually, I settled on the Karvie boots as my to-be winter boots! They are a gorgeous leather effect chelsea style ankle boot with an elasticated side gusset and small heel, covered in gold coloured studs! They were reduced to £10 from £30 which is such a bargain, I can't quite believe how cheap they were!

 I also couldn't help picking up these cute wellies! I know what you're thinking, why on earth are you wasting your money on wellies that you'll probably never need?! Well... my thinking was that now I'm at uni I will be doing a lot more walking and can't just get a lift into town or uni if it snows and I never have anything sturdy to wear on such occasions - I am the girl braving the snow in uggs with a foam sole with no grip whatsoever falling on her arse in the middle of town so therefore wellies are actually a necessity (have I managed to convince you?) These are the Westwood wellies which were reduced to £5 from £15 which again, is such a bargain. They are made of a black shiny rubber, have a 1 inch heel and a really cute cream double bow! Who said wellies can't be cute?!

Paying delivery is my pet hate but £4 delivery for both pairs considering how cheap they were I think is actually a really good price. In total to have a pair of boots and a pair of wellies delivered it cost me £19 (£2.50 VAT) which you would usually expect to pay for a single pair of boots at least in most high street shops! 

I love both pairs and also loved that on the day of delivery they text you giving you a time slot of when the boots will be delivered and also give you the option of leaving them with a neighbour or coming the following day which is perfect as you don't have to worry about staying in waiting for them to be delivered all day!
