Sale Bargains

I hope you are all well and enjoyed any time off you might have had over the last week. I thought today i would share with you my sale bargains. Now i did want to go to Meadowhall to check out the sales but i didn't fancy getting trampled on so i stuck with my local shopping centre. I was really pleased with my sale bargains so here they are, i haven't been able to get any actual pictures of my haul as the light has been so bad recently!

I went into Matalan not really expecting to come out with anything as i find it very hit and miss but i was pleasantly surprised with my finds.

I picked this floral scuba blazer up in a 20 and didn't actually realise it was in the sale until i got to the till. The size 20 was a good fit for me and i really like the fact it doesn't have a turn down collar like you see on most blazers. When i got to the till this was down in the sale to £12.50 what a bargain! Unfortunately this is no longer on the website but they did have quite a few in store so you might want to check there.

I also managed to get a velvet pencil skirt which i have been wanting for ages. I nearly missed this as i was looking for a skater skirt and when i didn't find one i went back around the sale section a second time and just as i was going to the tills i spotted it. This was a steal at £4, again it is no longer showing online but you might find it at your local Matalan.

I popped into Boots as i always like to see what gift sets are left at half price and as you will see quite a few took my eye.

Now i may have mentioned before that i have a bit of a thing for cheap perfume that smells like sweets. I wear it for work because i like to save my more expensive perfume for going out and i like to smell like a sweet shop. This was only £4.50 and you got 3 small bags of Jelly Beans and 6 roller ball perfumes, which all smell lovely and are the perfect size for your bag.

Next up was a So... gift set i picked up for £5 this smells really nice and fresh, you get a large and small bottle of So.. Sexy but both are perfect for you bag, you also go a lovely lipstick which is a good shade for work not too in your face.

Lastly i got some mini big brand perfumes, i hadn't even smelt any of them before but for £9 i though i would give them a go. I've already picked out my favourite, it has to be the Mochino pink bouquet. This is no longer online but your local Boots might still have a few left.

The rest of my sale shopping has been done online as the snow came down quite heavy Friday night which meant i didn't make it out shopping on Saturday.

I bought myself two new bras and some knickers from Simply Be, i love the Simply Yours bras so i decided to get the plunge 2 pack to add to my collection.

I also made my first Forever 21 order and bought myself this velvet skater skirt.

Have you treated yourself to any sale bargains?

Sale bargains

A few months ago now a new Simply Be store opened at the White Rose in Leeds, i hadn't had chance to check it out so while i was off work last week i popped in to check out the store and the sale of course!
I really liked the store it was bigger than the Doncaster store and it has a Jacamo upstairs too so great for the guys as well. They had so much sale stuff i was spoilt for choice!
I tried on a few bits and i came away with a few too. The first thing i wanted to try was the velvet swing dress i had tried on in Doncaster but was a little small. They had a size 22 in store and i think i did a little happy dance when i found it. Its still £45 online but i got it for £35 in store which made me even happier!

I also tried on and bought this jumper in a size 24/26 it's so ugly its beautiful and its the fluffiest jumper i have ever seen.

I also tried on the velvet stud dress which i got in a 20 for £19. I didn't get a picture of this one but its a super cute dress but on the big side so I'd advise to size down one or two sizes.

I also decided i needed more leopard print in my life, i mean who doesn't?! So i picked up this top for £10 in a size 20.

I got some great bargain in store and it was nice to see a store with a Jacamo in too as i hadn't been in a joint store before now.

The tshirt is in this picture but its just blending
in with the background!

Sale Bargains

So my spending ban has gone out of the window and i have a few new pieces to show you over the next few weeks. The total cost of this outfit was £27 including shoes which i think it really good!
I got the top from Evans it was in the sale for £15, it was one of the few things from the Clements Ribeiro collection that i didn't try on the first time around. I got a size 20 and it is really generous i think you could get into the 20 if you wear a 24. The t-shirt is really soft and comfy to wear and i think it looked cute with my new shorts.

The shorts were in the sale in New Look for £9! i got a size 22 and they fit great and they are super short which i love. I took the pics when i got in so i look a little dishevelled but still cute.

The pumps were from Primark for £3 and that was full price not sale. They are really comfy and didn't hurt my feet while i wondered around the shops last weekend.

I really love this outfit but it seems to draw a lot of attention from others, I'm not sure if its the fact a fat girl has all that leg out or my tattoos or a combination of both! But i have never been one to shy away from attention :)

I hope you all had a great weekend, i spent most of mine shopping but there is nothing new there is there?!

Gotta love a sale

A few weeks ago i popped into Evans for a nosey and spotted a few pieces from the Clements Ribeiro collection in the sale. I had tried this dress on several times but wasn't sure if it was very me i love the hints of lace but i don't have much in my wardrobe in this pattern or colour.

I tried it on again and decided for the £20 price tag I'd give it a go. I went for a size 24 as i found i needed to size up in most of the collection. The dress is really silky to the touch and come to my knees, i love the hint of lace on the sleeves and the chest.

I really like this dress although its very different from my usual choices i think i would get too warm in this dress during the summer as i found it pretty warm to wear and the weather hasn't been that great.

I wore this dress with tights and some Irregular Choice heels as i think the dress speaks for itself so you don't need many accessories.

I cannot wait for the next collection to come out i have seen some pictures of the bloggers that are modelling for the campaign and they look great. I already have a few things on my wish list!

Sales spree

I was lucky to get quite a few things in the sales after Christmas and they were all real bargains! I thought I'd show you what i got, these are only shots of the prints as full outfit posts will come soon. In fact you have already seen 1 of my sales bargains in the twice as nice post.
First up some very me shoes, not only leopard print but with a cats face on too what more could you want?!

Below heart print playsuit,pink polkadot dress, blue and red spot dress, floral dress

Faux fur jacket (that i have wanted for ages!) vintage style dress, blue skater dress

And i decided to branch out on the leggings front and got some floral and leopard print ones.

So they were my sale bargains, all apart from the leggings and jacket were bought online as i didn't find much in the shops.

Do you prefer to shop online or in person?
