Purchase Peek...


The Primark Edition!

Last weekend was a good weekend! 

I had a visitor come to stay, in the shape of Katie, one of my good friends from University. I took the opportunity to take her into Manchester both in the daytime, and at night. Of course we indulged in lots of things over the course of the weekend! Food, alcohol and shopping being the main ones. Whoops! Oh well, you only live once, right?!

Before I show you my shopping purchases, I have to tell you about the place we had lunch! If you live in the Manchester area (or indeed are visiting soon) and you haven't been to 'Home Sweet Home' in the Northern Quarter - you need to go! It is amazing. It's a cosy, vintage chic style type of cafe that serves all manner of comfort food, from burgers to chilli to macaroni. Every time I've been there it hasn't disappointed! 


Comfort food in cosy surroundings is the order of the day at Home Sweet Home


Enough about the food, who wants to see the purchases?

Now, these are all from Primark! Every now and then I do love a good mooch around Primark. It's cheap as chips, and is a great way of updating your looks for a fraction of the price. The only downside is that it's so popular that you do seem to see about 50 other people wearing the same items as you! But, I guess that's the price you have to pay for disposable fashion.


Dipped hem skirt - £10



Dipped hem dresses are still popular, and coral is still a good colour for the summer season. Dipped hem are great for those times when you want to show a bit of leg, but don't fancy wearing a mini skirt. 

Clutch bag - £6 & Bangles £2.50


Clutch bags accompany me on nights out. I have a mixture of cheap ones and expensive ones, depending on the occasion. This bag is huge, and fits everything a girl would need! Plus it ticks both the nude and studded trends. A very versatile bag.

Accessories are always a winner in my book. I love wearing lots of bangles on a night out, and I do like the colour very much! (A perfect addition to a nice black dress and a tan!)


Who else has been shopping so far this week? Any special purchases? x
