Primark shoe liner review


It is not often I find myself needing to review a Primark item but this needs to be done. 

IF you see these, do not buy them! EVER. 

They basically cut off circulation to your feet, think I am exaggerating look at this photo.. 


This wasn't even after a whole day of walking, this was after sitting in the cinema watching Spiderman 2. The price tag may be tempting but they are god awful. Sorry Primark. 


Re-discovering hair tools

I bought this curling tong freaking donkey's years ago. Seriously I mean like 5 years+ but only recently have I started using it. 


I wanted a soft wavy look and these Toni&Guy curlers delivered. I loved the finish look the only problem was they really didn't hold for very long *sadface*.


This was the result shortly after curling but I did have to go back in with my GHDs to make them hold. Waaah. I am going to try again with more styling products to see if that makes a difference. 


Outfits of the week!

It's been a little while I know but being unemployed means you can rock PJ bottoms all day. However there are some days I have had to put on real clothes and here they are.. 

First up is from when the sun was shining. This crop top is from ASOS it was in the sale a few months back for £2.50. Paired it with my Jamie jeans from Topshop. 

Repping the sailor vibe, striped tee from Dorothy Perkins, Topshop Leigh jeans and Taylor Swift Keds.

Both of these were for job interviews, the first is almost totally Tesco. Both jacket and pencil skirt from their, grey marl tee from TKMaxx and Marks and Spencers nude pumps. 

Channeling Kim Kardashian in this one, again skirt is from Tesco sale and a plain black tee from Zara. 

I will try my hardest to remember to photograph my outfits this week!

McBusted @ The O2


Words can't even explain how amazing that concert was. My love affair with Busted started TWELVE years ago and even after all these years of waiting they did not disappoint.

A full review with pictures and proper sentances will be going up on BabbleAvenue over the weekend so keep your eyes over there.

Primark, Zara and Next haul

Over the Easter weekend my boyfriend and I took a trip up the M4 to Swindon to visit some friends, whilst staying with said friends we visited Cabot Circus in Bristol and I picked up a few items. First lets talk Primark, it was huge and had way to many goodies. 


In desperate need of a new hoodie I couldn't resist this sky blue hoodie for £8. 


Being in the currently shitty situation that I am I couldn't resist this Peter Pan t-shirt. Never grow up! I think it was £5. 


Along with the mint green beverley hills top I picked up in Primark last time couldn't resist this 'I'm in Miami Beach' cropped boxy top. Will definitely be wearing this in Miami beach! Again £5.


One of the softest tops I have ever found in Primark is this neppy top in hot pink. I wish I had got every colour now! I think this was around the £3 mark but I've already worn it hence the guess work. 


I live in joggers and jogger shorts are just as good. Couldn't walk past the blue pair especially as I am heading to Greece in 5 short weeks. These were £2.50/£3 each. 


I have only recently discovered invisible socks and at £1.50 per pack of 2, total bargain. 


I needed a beach bag/can get ruined by chlorine bag. This was only £3 and also comes in hot pink stripes. 

The next item I picked up was from Zara and it is the softest top I have ever touched.


With two palm trees on the bust and 'sunshine' written in teenie tiny writing on the neck I couldn't walk past. This set me back £12, not too shabby. 

Finally we hit up Swindon outlet shopping where I ventured into Next and picked up these printed trousers. 

These were £14 in the outlet and I love them. I am living in printed trousers at the moment so I will definitely get my wear out of them. 

The entire Primark shop cost me £35 and the other two being single buys I am dead chuffed with my haul. Hopefully my good luck shopping trip will carry on into my job hunt!

Oh shit.

Helloo there interweb, how are you all?

I am going to get straight to the freaking point as you know that is kind of what I do. So I took a new job which I started at on Monday which turned out to be a shit storm of lies rolled up into a neatly wrapped package. The job I took was nothing like I expected and as a result I have quit. 

Now where does this leave me I hear you screaming at your computer.. this leaves me unemployed and poor! FUCK. 

I am meeting with a few agencies over the next couple of days but oh hot damn, what a situation to be in!

On the plus side though this means lots more blogging, creating content for www.babbleavenue.com and generally mooching around. I will of course keep you updated with the events as they unfold, I will also be doing a post over on babbleavenue on what to do when you take the wrong job. 

Eeeep. Not really sure what else to say, wish me luck.
