End of Summer Sale Haul!

The transition from Summer to Autumn always calls for a new wardrobe for the chilly days, and whatever else you can think of to justify it, there was also a sale on!


I found this gorgeous top in the Matalan sale, I've been looking for something like this for ages, its so girly and its right up my street, this was £11.  


I may not be able to wear this for a few weeks because its still quite warm outside, but i found this jumper in the Matalan sale for £7.50, i went crazy for things like this in the spring because i love the black and white daisy print.


I was so happy when i found this in Matalan, its like a 60s style coat in my favourite baby pink colour, and I've been looking for more of a stylish coat. This was £40 but it was in the sale for.... £14! Such a bargain! 
Onto Primark now, i found this top in the sale for £5. It looks quite odd on the hanger shape wise, but when this is on its really pretty and it has a subtle peplum. 
 

A boring one but this is sooooo cosy, and its only £7 
I wouldn't normally go for things like this, usually I'm a girly girl but i thought this would be good for dance, this was £4. 
I live in dolly shoes and coming from Primark, they don't usually last long. The black ones were £5 and the burgundy were £6 and are from the wide fit range.  
 I was looking for blue high waisted jeans but they didn't have my normal ones so i got these which were £10.  
I live in these black high waisted jeans, and i found these in the sale for £5!  


So i think ive treated my shopping cravings for the time being whilst getting some amazing bargains in the process!

Summer Bucket List Review!


So its officially the end of summer, sad times that I'm going back to college but good  times in the fact that its nearly autumn and then... Christmas! So i made a little summer bucket list and i see it only fitting that i review it and how much i actually managed to do!


  1. Run Race for Life 
  2. Go to the beach - more than once and to different beaches
  3. Create a summer playlist
  4. Dye hair bright colours
  5. Use a disposable camera
  6. Build a massive sandcastle 
  7. Buy something from an ice cream van
  8. Have a sleepover
  9. Explore the countryside with Georgie
  10. Grow a sunflower
  11.  Have a Disney movie marathon- essential in my eyes :)
  12. Not give a damn- about ANYTHING 
  13. Lose 8 pounds, or at least tone up - workout 5 times a week 
  14. Spend at least an hour outside each day, maybe not if its pouring it down;) 
  15. Go for a day out to somewhere completely new 

As you can see, i only did 9/15 things which is better than half or even nothing, im pretty pleased with what i did do! 
I think i may do an Autumn/Winter version of this, if i can think of any ideas:)
I hope everyone had a good summer!
