Small Primark Haul

Just a quick one today, what I have for you is a small Primark haul, as you will know the store either has absolutely nothing or some bits you're really loving, all at the price of battling through the crowds and scanning through the maze of rails for something worth while. This time I was quite impressed with what I managed to find.

Whenever making the pilgrimage to Primark I have to visit the home wear section, especially now I have my own place to decorate. Spurred on by ThePersianbabe recent haul I headed out with hope for something up my alley and to much avail I came away with this little beauty, a lace trimmed and cut out patterned scatter cushion, so in LOVE  and brightens up my love sofa perfectly.

Also in the home wear section I checked out the candles. I've recently seen some reviews raving about the sweet vanilla & coconut scented version which first sparked my interest, is this really true... a candle at such a low cost that actually leaves a scent in your room further than the distance of having your nose burnt off and at a burning time of 30 hours. I decided to be different and went for the Fresh Citrus & Ginger scent, lighter in hand and high expectations it sure didn't disappoint, over all a huge price drop compared to your usual candle splurge, it does what it's supposed to and smells great, a really good one for summer!

Now who doesn't love the Simpsons? I couldn't leave this uber cool set of pj's behind, look at them they are screaming awesomeness or is that just my opinion, anyway they are my new favourite pair. Along side them being amazing they are really comfortable and cool for these summer nights, a must have in my opinion.

Something you should know is I have lived on only one pair of sunny's for the past two years now which I bought from Primark and yet hadn't found anything to better them until recently, coming across the blue tinted Ray Ban clubmaster's. In fear of them looking awful on me and waisting my cash I never got around to taking the plunge and purchasing such item, thanks to good old Primark for saving the day and my bank balance!

Candle - £3.50
Pillow - £5
Pj's - £5
Sun Glasses - £3.50

See you soon

Vintage Fair

Hello my readers, on this lazy Sunday afternoon that I'm writing this on I wanted to share with you a slice of summer. I've been meaning to get around to posting this for a couple of weeks, now I have found the time to write up a short piece about the vintage fair I attended and thought it's something for you to have a quick read of while, if like myself you're also sat in front of the fire with a cup of tea.

Earlier this year the advintageous vintage fair came to my town held in a local theatre. Being interested mainly in vintage home wear I went along and I enjoyed it so much I thought the second time around I would photograph some of what was there for you to see. This event is great fun to attend and you really should go yourselves if one comes to your town. As I approached the entrance, I was greeted by the sight of a collection of beautiful vintage cars, ranging from Bentleys and Rolls Royces to Austin Minis and ambulances. Once inside there were a range of amazing stalls filled with kitsch and unusual items, from home wears, vintage HiFi to racks of clothing and jewellery, you could even get your hair cut and styled with a vintage theme, it's really worth going, just to see whats there.

 

Sorry about the lack of photos, a combination of overriding personal interest, heatwave temperatures and slightly deficient camera battery meant there weren't a huge amount taken.

Thanks for reading.
