Heya! Unfortunately I didn't get round to doing two posts last week so instead I am going to be doing two this week to catch up! I have so much to blog about but so little time to actually write them! Anyway I hope you are all well and by now feeling all Christmasy and if you are on your holidays having a nice relaxing time! Today's post is all about what I got from the clothes show! A continued post I guess from my last post but in more detail about what I actually got. So before I waffle on for too much longer lets get started.
I am not going to lie I did get a lot of stuff but I mean who doesn't when they go to the clothes show? Firstly I'd like too start off saying there were a few things I got which I won't go into much detail about because they are actually for my Christmas presents, but this did included a black corduroy pinafore, which oh my gosh I have been wanting for what feels like forever. I also got a sequin covered dress which I am hoping to wear on Christmas day but I'll go into more detail about them after Christmas probably in another post. I also got a lot of presents for other people at the clothes how but obviously it is not Christmas yet so they won't know what it is so I also won't be sharing everything because of that but now it's about time I got on to the rest of it.
So firstly I got these amazing sunglasses! Well I am not going to lie they are probably not to everyone's taste but I love them anyway! They are silver with a unique shape and are made from metal so are quite heavy but not annoying! The design almost looks as though it would be hard to see out of them but I can see perfectly through them with no restrictions! I actually got these from one of the vintage shops at the clothes show, and I am so happy with them! Okay they may not have been a necessity but I mean come on! How could I not? The colour will go with pretty much anything and they can completely funk up an outfit! (I don't think people even say funk up any more but who cares) as you can probably tell I am just a tad excited about these so I think its time to move on.
I also got some Cosmo mags! I got three for only £2 which is a bargain! See I told you all the clothes show had some great deals! And this wasn't just a pointless buy. I actually really like the Cosmo magazine, it's so great for keeping up to date with fashion but also comes in handy when I need to use magazines for my college work. But that's not just it! I know more!
As well as getting three mags for £2 I also got a free mascara with them as well which was a great little bonus!
Another thing I picked up were some really cute Christmas mason jars! These are actually for Christmas presents but I just thought they were so cute! Also they can be used after Christmas without the lid which I think is just so convenient!
One of the bargains I am particularly pleased with is my candy kittens tees! Now for those of you who don't know candy kittens is a brand which was created by Jaime Laing who is from Made In Chelsea. I actually really like his stuff, however I just feel it is quite overpriced. BUT at the clothes show the store had a bargain bucket were you could get tees for only a fiver which are normally sold for £35. I mean it would have been wrong for me not to have got something. Right? So anyway let me get down to what I actually got! So firstly I got a white short sleeved t shirt which reads young London in pale pink type. And let me tell you, I love a white t-shirt I mean you just can't go wrong with them, they are great for everything especially college! They are easy to wear and you can wear them with practically anything! And for a fiver well it was an obvious purchase if you ask me! Now, next I got a long sleeve top also for a fiver from candy kittens! This was also white but on the front has the letter 'C' and on the back reads 'Candy'. I thought this would be so great to wear underneath things and is also something which can be worn with pretty much anything! I would also like to add that these tops are so so soft! I mean they just feel so nice! To be fair I haven't actually washed them yet so I don't have the verdict on whether they will stay this soft but they definitely feel more luxurious than a normal t-shirt and for five pounds each I'm pleased with that!
The clothes show of course also came with lots of freebies too! I would be hear all day if I let you know about all of them the free bees ranged from samples, foods, skin care, beauty, jewelry and all sorts but here are just two of my little free bees I picked up at the clothes show.
Firstly I got this really cute little rope bracelet which I liked because it reminds me of the little friendship bracelets you would get when you go on holiday, and also obviously it's pink so of course I loved it.
But also Carmex! I got a free Carmex lip balm and if you know me I am one of those people who is always applying something to my lips! I especially love Carmex when my lips feel like they need a little bit of care in the cold months or if I am just chilling at home and am not putting any lippy on, or even sometimes before I put my lippy on to keep my lips moisturized. So I was really pleased to get this for free! Now I had actually never tried this one before I got it at the clothes show so it was also nice to have to free as I probably wouldn't have chosen it normally as I would tend to go for a classic option opposed to pomegranate but I was pleasantly surprised when I tried it so this made me super happy!
This has been quite a long post so I think I am going to end it here for today! I also have some more me bits which I will let you know about after Christmas and also I got quite a lot of beauty products which I am going to talk about in a separate post so keep your eyes peeled for that!
(I would also like to apologies for the lack of photos to describe each thing. The post was having technical difficulty and would not let me upload all the images.)
Thank you for reading! If I'm not able to post again before Christmas then I home you all have a wonderful time!
