Primark Haul!

This isn't something I usually do - haul my clothing and accessories, but I picked up a few little bits in Primark this weekend that I wanted to share with you. They're all really nice pieces at an even nicer price. I find that Primark is pretty hit and miss - sometimes you can buy half the shop and sometimes it's a disaster.
 
 
 
This gold studded belt is a great piece. I'm looking forward to wearing this against black jeans or PU leggings to add a little something. It's a great colour - not too in your face. At only £2 it's also a complete bargain. I'm sorry for now many times I say that in this blog post.
 
 
 
Recognise these? They are super similar to my bargain 80p market earrings but these drop cross earrings are just a touch bigger and a little heavier so they're a bit easier to wear as a statement piece - which I will be doing. The are a yellow gold so they'll go well with... well, the rest of what I bought today! Did I mention they were only £1?
 
 
 
Isn't this gold studded ring just beautiful. It's big, it's flash and it's bloody beautiful. A real statement piece. As you can see it was only £2 and it's probably worth more than that as scrap metal - it's so heavy! It's a real easy piece to just put on and glam an outfit up.
 
 
 
This is the same as the ring above. It's a really big, heavy piece. On elastic, it's easy to wear and also will glam up an outfit in a second. This studded bracelet, at only £3 it's a fabulous piece. It's the same gold as the ring and earrings too! I seriously adore this bracelet and cannot wait to wear it!
 
I also bought 2 pairs of PU (leather look) leggings; a black pair and a gold pair too. I'm not 100% when I'll wear the gold pair but I was thinking with an all black outfit, they're look fabulous!

About Me Monday!

I am quite proud of myself for making sure I get another one of these cranked out this week. I know I've sucked posting this last week but there you go! I have a review and a haul post planned for this week and I will be going shopping tomorrow - which will be Monday as I'm going to put this on to schedule.

I wasn't too sure what to write about this week as I haven't really done too much this last with the crappy weather and being a little cold-y. I've literally spend the week at a neighbour's house, drinking tea and as fun as this is, it's only took a sentence to write so that wouldn't class a blog post! But this week I have totally re-fell in love with my Kindle. I've had my Kindle a few months and I am a big reader but I seem to have stopped using it. I am getting to run down as soon as I get done the things I need to, I'm half asleep so the last thing I want to do is settle down with my K.

Over the summer I read all the Lindsey Kelk books (which  are fabulous and I seriously recommend!) but they are really summer reads. You know, those books that seem to flitter past and don't take too much to get into. Now it's getting colder I like to be able to spend hours in a book,  a really great novel. And since you cannot depend on the Kindle bestseller's at the moment as it's still full of 50 Shades of Grey fakes, I've started to re-read all the Harry Potters - my all time favourite books. I love the series, the films, everything. I know these are classed as Children's books, but I'm 20 so I grew up with Harry Potter. I got all the books the day they came out and went to see all the films, over and over. The DVDs are still my go-to if I can't decide what to watch. I'm on the second book on my Kindle after starting the other day as I do read pretty quick but oh, how I love them.

I have to admit, I'm in the team of 'I don't think J. K. Rowling should write any other book, ever.' But I am tempted to read her newest adult novel (insert name here, oops!) as it's had pretty good reviews.  After I have finished all the HP, I think I might start all the Discworld novels. My second favourite series!
