My first Blog post!!

Hello There!

Well this is my first post and a little later than expected.
I went on a little shopping trip today and picked up a few little goodies.

My first port of call was House Of Fraser as I had a £30 gift card that needed spending. I always feel quite intimidated by going into a large shop with loads of make up counters as the women always look immaculate with their bright red smiles on but none the less I braved it.  I went to the Chanel counter and after seeing the fab reviews for months and months I ended up buying the famous 'Chanel Vitalumiere Aqua'. (£31) I got shade '20 Beige' after the lady tested a little bit on moi! She asked me if she could take all of my makeup off  and I was like 'No Way' as I knew I wanted to venture around town for a bit afterwards and I would feel 'naked' without it (she ended testing it on my jaw line).
I haven't tried it properly yet but when I do I will let you know if i liked it or not. I tried to blag some sort of eye cream/ depuffer  (my eyes get terribly puffy, can anyone recommend me anything to try?) but she had none left but none the less she hunted out a couple of other samples for me to try which were 'Hydramax + Active Fluide Moisure Fluid' and 'Inimitable Mascara' in shade 10 (black). Again, as I only brought these this morning  I haven't had the pleasure to try them yet but I will let you know when I do!!


I then ventured into Primark and got the 'Oatmeal' Colour knitted jumper (£14) that i have been after for the last few weeks. There was only size 12 left so I brought it and have since decided I am glad as it will have that cool baggy look when on!


My last purchase was actually from my local PDSA charity shop and it is remarkably similar to my Primark purchase above!
So its a massively oversize Knitted Jumper which originally from Marks and Spencer's. It is sooooo huge it says its as XXL on the label!! I brought this for £4.99 which sounds quite a lot from a charity shop but its so thick and great quality I should imagine it cost a fortune brand new! I never tried it on in the shop but did as soon as I got home and I love it! Its massive as I am generally a size 10 but as the 'oversize' look is in and the weather is getting colder it will be fab! I shall probably team it up with some thick tights or leggings and some boots. Cant wait to wear it properly!
Here's a pic......


OK, so that wraps up my first ever blog post. I hope you liked it and please let me know what you would like to see in the future. I would also Love to know,whats your best ever charity shop bargain??!!
