Primark Haulin'

Monday, September 02, 2013 Holly 18 Comments

So, I went into Primark.. again.
With Autumn/Winter coming up and the possibility of a new-season wardrobe blossoming, it would have been totally impossible to leave the store empty handed. I had my eye on so much more (they have some really lovely things at the minute), but I reined in the spending-spree urges and only bought a couple of things that I really fell in love with.
 
 
 


The print of this skater dress called my name as soon as I walked in. Although floral prints are somewhat iconic for summer, the monochrome design makes the dress still wearable for A/W. The capped sleeves and skater structure give the bold and slightly formal print a girly edge, very Kate Middleton-ey . This dress would look perfect with a bowler hat, tights, Chelsea boots and a leather jacket.
A OOTD featuring this little number perhaps, oui?


If you don't know that tartan is going to be huge this Autumn/Winter, then where the hell have you been girl? I can't really imagine myself in any out-there pieces to be honest (think tartan trousers), or even any semi-out-there pieces either (think tartan tops, jackets) - I'm such a trend bore. I've evidently played it safe and bought a big tartan scarf, to wrap around cosy jumpers and to snuggle under jackets.


 
  
Yes, I've bought pyjamas covered in pug faces. No I wasn't forced to. This is not a joke, I repeat, this is not a joke. I have willingly paid money for pyjamas covered in pug heads & the slippers to match. Oh sweet jebus, I'm going to be that girl at uni aren't I?




The last thing I bought was this pair of pyjama bottoms. They are really cute, a gorgeous pinky colour and slightly silky. Perfect for lazy days where you don't want to be caught in old jogger bottoms. The 'Love to Lounge' range at Primark is the best for pyjamas on the high street in my opinion!

Prices
Skater Dress: £8.00
Tartan Scarf: £4.00
Pug Slippers: £3.50
Pug Bottoms: £5.00
      Pug Top:£3.50 (I think)
 Pink Bottoms: £6.00
 
 
Have you started buying your Autumn Wardrobe yet?

    I really like the scarf! I really want one now, I think it would look nice with a leather jacket. Good way of picking up on the trends without going too over the top. xox

    I'm loving that dress you got! It's going to look so adorable styled for the cooler weather. Everything I see now, I'm like, "wow - that will look great with a cardi and booties."

    Those bulldog leggings are ridiculously cute, too!
