Collective Haul - Primark and H&M

Hiya lovelies! 

Hope you all had a great week so far! My work experience started on monday so please excuse the lack of posts over the next couple of weeks. Being a student is so much easier than actually having to work haha. Anyway, seeing as I was looking for summery clothes [I wasn't prepared for this heat!] I went shopping with my sister last week. I usually spot the loveliest clothes when I'm skint but this time I have actually been lucky and snapped up a couple of bargains! We went to Primark [which took us a good five hours as my sister took her baby boy with her] and The Body Shop, I'll be reviewing my TBS purchase in a seperate post though. So without further ado here's what I bought! [Please excuse the shoddy pictures as well]



Tie dye jumper - as soon as I spotted this little pastel jumper I knew I had to have it. This goes so well with my light pink shorts and any pair of trousers really. This was the biggest bargain at £4! Got to love the Primark sale.



Light blue dress - just how cute is this? I love that it comes with a dark brown waist belt, I usually don't like the belts that come with dresses as they tend to look tacky but this one looks lovely and goes really well with the colour of the dress. This was £7.



This is not as orange as it is in those pictures, it's more coral toned in real life!
Coral day dress - there were four different colours to choose from, white, black, grey and coral. I usually opt for the first three colours when it comes to clothes but this time I wanted to make sure I won't buy anything too boring so I went for the coral one! It has little round studs on the shoulders and a zip in the back which I thought looked really cute and it's super comfy as well! Again, bargain alert at just £3.50!




Floral dress - I've been raving about this dress on Twitter already, it's one of the most gorgeous dresses I've ever seen [and owned]. Can you believe this is actually from Primarni? Me neither. The dress was around £17 if I remember correctly which seems quite steep for Primark but it really is a gorgeous dress and worth more than that. Love the cut-outs in the front and back, you can still wear a bra and it won't show!


Jim jams - You can't go into Primark without buying at least one pyjama. Well I got three, love me a cosy pyjama haha. I got one of their sets with an owl on it because who doesn't love owls?! I also got two pyjama bottoms, one with pastel coloured roses on it and another one with watches, bows and keys on it which reminded me a lot of Alice in Wonderland, so I obviously had to get these as well.


Underwear&Socks - I know opinions differ on this question but I'm not showing you pictures of me wearing these bras and pants am I. I just loved the cute pastel colours and they were only 50p each! The bras were £2 each as were the socks.


Purse - I've been looking for a plain black purse for ages! This one is just perfect and doesn't look as cheap as most Primark purses. It's the perfect size for those days I'm not at uni and don't have to carry around a lot with me.






I then went to H&M with my parents the day after that because mum insisted on buying me new clothes for work as she said I couldn't go to work wearing pink hot pants. She's probably right so I got some grey shorts as well as some pink striped ones. She also bought me a blue and white tie dye high waist skirt which I think is really cute and a light pink dress which I won't wear to work but loved so much I had to have it haha. Thanks mum :) ♥ I might even try and post an OOTD some time soon please bare with me as I'm not a fashion blogger ;) Hope you enjoyed this post though!

So that's everything I bought last week, what do you guys think? :)
