Primark Haul

Last week i hit up Primark in Reading to get some autumn essentials for my wardrobe, the Reading store is a bit dire, i wanted to get some of the limited edition statement necklaces and an oriental print skirt but they weren't in store, i am heading back to Bath later this week so i might pop over to Bristol as that is a pretty decent store, i had planned to go to one in London when i was there was on Thursday but the rush hour rush took it out of me and i just wanted to get back to Paddington so sadly didn't make it.

Rose print cardigan - £14 
I am not a huge fan of coats, i know this makes me odd, i get very warm, very easily, my office is like a sauna, i just don't really need to wear a coat all the time, instead i like to wear chunky knit cardigans. This caught my eye while roaming around, it is lone on a rack, clearly not where it was meant to be so i set off in search of them, i got a 20 and it is surprising roomy, i could easily have fitted into the 18, it even has pockets. 


Thin knit jumpers - £7 
As autumn is coming i do need something a bit warmer to wear, but full on jumpers can again be too warm for me, so this is perfect, it is very lightweight, i have a few pinafore dresses in my wardrobe now and these will be great for wearing under them for a simple look. They had other colours but i went for the burgundy and gun metal. In a size 20 these are a good fit. 

Cookie monster slippers - £4
I bought the elmo ones while in Manchester and when i saw these i just had to have them, they are so soft. I love a good slipper for the colder months, my Bath house can be really cold so i like to keep my toes toasty in some stylish footwear. 

Tights - £2.50
I bought the 100 denier and the 80 denier in a XL and well, i tried the 80's on and couldn't get them fully up my thighs, and i have reasonable little legs as i'm only 5'4, the crotch area was also tiny, bit of a joke really, think i will be sticking to my ASOS Curve tights thank you.
(If anyone wants these let me know, the 80's have literally only been tried on, they didn't even make contact with my lady area, and the 100's are brand new. Just cover postage and both pairs are yours)

Tartan-ish leggings -£7
A bit of a tame tartan but i don't want to go overboard, i'm fully into the trend and loving it. These leggings will look great with biker boots (which i am yet to find a perfect pair, let me know if you have any suggestions). I got the 20's and they fit well but are slightly long in the leg, but i can handle that. 


Black tee - £3.50
This was bought more because i forgot to grab mine when i was in Bath and again is good for under pinafore dresses, long sleeves with a scooped neck. Simple but effortless. I got the 20 as i like the longer body length but i could wear an 18. 

So there you have it, my Primark haul, if i do get to Bristol and buy anything worth while i will do another post.
