This is what happened. I went out & bought myself a set
of ‘birthday present’s, for NO APPARENT REASON. Good move Lydia. I haven’t
actually been properly shopping for a good few weeks & when I checked my
bank I realised I’d saved a lot more than I’d thought. Notice the past tense.
Ha. We all have those days where you just want to buy whatever you like &
not worry about it, right?!
I managed to pick up a few bargains & a few other things
I’ve been wanting to treat myself to for a while. I finally got past the
horrendous ‘are you alright, would you like a demonstration?’ sales techniques
that you can’t avoid in Lush.. I love that place but sometimes you just want to
have a browse don’t you? I'm big on having a nice bubble bath to chill out after
doing work all day so I’m gradually stocking up on bath time treats.
The H&M jacket was my bargain of the day, £7 for a knit
biker style jacket! I thought I could swap it with my leather to avoid wearing
so much black. I’ve got pictures wearing both clothing items on my Instagram
(fashioninflux) if you want a peek!
My biggest treats were make-up purchases. I never spend too
much on clothes but will quite happily part with a silly amount of money on a
lippy. I just feel like it’s more of a luxury don’t you think?! I justified getting
the pack of six Urban Decay eyeliners as it was a good deal, I’d probably have
spent a tenner on just one anyway. I love their liners so I know I’ll get
plenty of use out of them. If any of the other products are anything to rave
about then I’ll definitely be back with an update!
