JULY NEW BUYS + BLOGGER BITS



 
H&M Crop & Topshop Denim Shorts
 
 
I think i'm going to start doing a big post near the end of every month featuring all the bits I've bought and the blogger bits I've received. It will give me a chance to get all excited about the new things I have and they'll all be in one place with links to where everything is from,
what does everyone think? :) 
 
  
NEW BUYS
First up are all my new buys. Everything I bourght was from one shopping trip as I haven't been down town in agesss! Since I finished Uni I've only been to Nottingham once, I know, shocking right? I am trying to save money though so it's probably for the best haha 
 
 
Topshop
From Topshop I bought some new denim shorts and some of their Joni jeans.

Topshop Denim Shorts

I wanted a pair of denim shorts to wear throughout summer as I don't really have a favourite pair or any that fit come to think of it? I love how these ones are high waisted so they're perfect to wear with crop tops, i'm not slim enough to wear a crop with anything low waisted as my belly is too fat LOL
They're quite stetchy, really comfortable to wear and the colour is perfect for summer :)

Topshop Joni Jeans

Topshop Joni Jeans
 
More high waisted denim in the form of jeans! I cannot believe how comfortable these are, they're really thin and stretchy so are more like jeggings that actual jeans. Again, they're high waisted and the lack of pockets makes them look like American Apparel Easy Jeans, but they were a lot cheaper ;)
 
 
H&M
I got some amazing pieces from H&M!


H&M Pineapple Crop & Skirt

H&M Pineapple Crop & Skirt

This pineapple crop and skirt made my day! I got the crop first without reailsing there was a matching skirt so when I found out I was super excited! There is a skirt in the same print as the crop (see below) and made out of the same stretchy material but I didn't look very good in it so I was delighted when i found this shorter version! The material is thicker you see, so it doesn't show up your fat as much, yeah I'm not a size 0, I just wear clothes that compliment my body and make me look thinner than I am, so this skirt is prfecet haha

H&M Pineapple Skirts

H&M Pineapple Dress
 
They also do a jazzy dress in this print too!

H&M Pineapple Skirt

H&M Aztec Skirt
 
As I loved the pineapple skirt so much, I also bought one in this black and white print too as I thought it would be great with purples and light blues for sumer :) Oh, it was only £7.99 too ;)
 
H&M Leopard Print Denim Shorts
 
I wore these shorts in one of my recent outfit posts and these are also from H&M, for only £12.99 it would be rude not to :)
 
American Apparel
I don't really go in AA that often, everything seems a little expensive for what it is but nevertheless, I ended up going in and buying 3 vests. I was only going to get 2 but they had an offer on where if you buy 3, you get 50% off the third one :)
 
Americaan Apparel Chiffon Cami

New Look
I went in to buy some plain black boots for work and came across these beauts! They were reduced from £74 down to £25 so I snapped them up! I did like them when they were available in winter but didn't think I'd wear them that much so I didn't get them lol :) They're made from suede so getting them for £25 was a real bargain!
 
New Look Glitter Chelsea Boots

 
Primark
I always end up in Primark one way or another haha but I only bought some socks and these trackies. They're short crop and were only £5, I might wear them for a sporty kind of look or just around the house to chill in becasue they're really comfy :)

BLOGGER BITS
Next up are all the fab blogger bits I've recieved!
 
LovelySally
Pink zebra print crop top!

This is what I wore in my last outfit post, if you haven't already seen it you can check it out here :)
This crop is amazing, so incredibly comfy and the print is spot on for summer! I again am going to mention the quality of all LovelySally items and that their new collection is AMAZING and defnatly worth checking out :)
 
DragonBerry
Cutout crop and cat tapastry shorts!
 
DragonBerry Cutout Crop Top & Cat Tapastry Shorts

DragonBerry Cutout Crop Top & Cat Tapastry Shorts

How cute are these shorts? They're high waisted so go perfectly with my cut out crop top that I also received from DragonBerry. They're fully lined and fasten up with a side zip making them really comfy and easy to get on. The crop to fastens up with a large zip at the back and also has a buckle so you can tighten / loosen the bottom strap to ensure a perfect fit! I'd love to finish this look with the cat tapastry Jeffrey Campbell boots but I don't have them :(

 
Society of Chic
Okay, this is the most beautiful jumpsuit I've ever seen!  
 
Society of Chic Jewelled Romper

How can anybody not love this? :D
It's seriously the nicest thing i've ever been sent! The whole top half is covered in jewels and they're even more sparkly than they appear in these pictures! The jewels are made out of glass instead of the cheaper plastic ones you get, this is why they sparkle so much :D
I love the fact that it is this gorgeous deep royal blue colour, I wear too much black so it makes a change and makes it a bit more summery!
The bandeau style tops fits beautifully and it comes with straps that you can either use or tuck in. The top half is quite heavy due to all the jewels so the straps come in handy if you're going tg be doing a lot of dancing and don't want it to fall down lol however it does have those sticky gel like strips on it (does that make sence?) those ones that stick to your skin to keep it in place so you don't need the straps, it does stay up without them :)
It's fully lined and the material is quite thick making it very flattering, hinding all your lumpy bumpy bit haha it fastens up with a zip up the back making it easy to get on and off :)
 
I would 100% reccommend getting this, it's a perfect statement piece that imso'  happy to now have in my wardrobe :D
 
Society of Chic Hawaiian Jacket

I also received this summery, hawaiian printed jacket! It's made out of light material making it perfect for summer :)

Karbie Ben
Weed leg garter!

Insanly cool weed leg garter from Karbie Ben! They have other designs and also have the most beautiful flower garlands so it's worth checking them out :)


Sleeh
Last but not least - colourblock heels!

Sleeh Blue Colourblock Heels

Sleeh Orange Colourblock Heels
 
I love love love these colourblock heels! I loved them so much I got them in two colours, blue and orange! They also do them in a pink and red colour too and would definatly reccomment them as they're so incredibly comfy and  great value for money as they're only $25! For saying they were so cheap I was extremely happy with the quality. The material is really vibrant and will brighten up any outfit, perfect summery heels :D
 
 
 
I also received this beautiful dagger like necklace and cross knuckleduster ring from their jewely collection which was a lovely surprise :D
 
Wow that was a pretty long post, if you made it this far, congratulation haha

A very pink look today!
This is my fabulous new LovelySally crop top from their new summer collection and I love it! I saw the blue zebra print crop they sell in Topshop and also the River Island one, but this is my favourite ;) It's so comfy and as with all LovelySally products, the material is thick, the printing is vibrant and detailed and the quality is tip top. They also do a cut out swimsuit in this same print and have loads of new pieces up, so it's definatley worth checking them out here :D
I bought these shoes from New Look for around £25 and I love the pink / purple print on them. They look very similar to a pair Aldo did but for a lot less money! They're really comfortable but I don't wear them out that much, the last time I did they got covered in drinks, slime, scuffs and black marks which I guess are disguised by the pattern but I don't want to ruin them further haha :)

This is what I wore the other day when I went out with my family and my boyfriend. It was quite a hot day (can you tell by the leather jacket?) but it was getting late and I thought it would cool down once the sun had gone and we were greeted by my good friend Mr Darkness lol I love night time btw, kind of like a vampire.
Anyway... the shorts are new and I'm so glad I got them! I saw them a while ago but didn't bother getting them as I had just bought a pair of leopard print beach shorts from Primark for £4 so I thought it would be pointless getting these too. I saw them again the other day, and as they were only £12.99, I thought WHY NOT?! I really liked the ones by OneTeaspoon but they were quite expensive and I knew I wouldn't wear them enough to justify how ever much they were lol :)
 
Okay, now for me to get excited about my shoes!!  
These are my newest set of JC spikes and I LOVE LOVE LOVE THEM!!
They're a UK size 6 so are a little big for me but guess what? I don't care as I only paid ..... £36 for them! :O Yes, that's right... £36! They were off Ebay, which may I say is unusual for me as I have a thing about feet. I can't let anyone put their feet in my shoes so buying second hand shoes on ebay would make my skin CRAWL! Apart from my boyfriends shoes, he has really nice feet so I'm okay with it :S Anyway, fortunatley for me, these were brand new so it was okay! They were so cheap as the person selling them described them as "Geffrey" Campbell shoes so obviously they didn't show up on any searches meaning not many bidders! Also, they ended at an awkward time, around 11pm on a weekday so not many people were still up to bid! I nearly had a heart accact during the last minute but I managed to get them! Best feeling ever :D

An American themed look as it's American Independance Day. I'm not American, I'm from the UK so I don't celebrate it but it gave me an opportunity to wear these shoes! I have 2 pairs as I ordered 2 to get the right size, the shipping was going to cost me too much to return them so I'm selling a pair! Brand new in box, size UK 4, you can check them out here if you're interested
:)
 
The dress I'm wearing is from Sammy Dress. They have one for sale on ASOS that looks pretty much identical (here) but it's £48.00, the one I'm weaing only costs £.5.76  so go check out their site, they have some really cute dresses that are realllyyyy cheap :D
Ps, it's just a coincidence that the girl on ASOS is wearing cat ears and i'm wearing cat sunglasses, what are the chances of that? Haha how strange :)
