Just a quick look at some of the stuff I brought and some of the stuff I wish I could have brought!
It might be a good idea to mention that I maxed out my credit card. How do I know this? Because it was declined in Primark and my mum had to pay :)
First up the actual haul items:
From Primark I got 2 leggings (£3 each), a bra (£5), presents - i don't think it's wrong to give primark stuff...i love primark stuff (£20), my shoes which you'll see below and my mum got a pair of cute lacey pumps (she has size 3-4 feet, everything is cute on her). My maxi dress of course and then some boring bits and pieces.
I went into Gap (twice - first time round to exchange and get mum her t shirt) and got a really cute summery denim...thing. Not sure if it's a top or dress. It's a layered (but not frilly layered) light wash 'thing' with buttons down the front (not all the way down). With today's weather I could wear it has a dress (and probably flash everyone) but realistically I'll probably wear it with leggings. It is sleeveless but i'm trying to be brave and show my arms. After flaunting my orange self showing my pasty bingo wings shouldnt be too bad. It was £14.99 down from £35. Also got my mum gift cards to say thank you for paying for everything (shopping, pub, breakfast, dinner, doughnuts etc - had to use my debit card - gulp).
This is random but we also went food shopping in China Town and my mum got me chicken feet which sounds nasty but is delish. I try not to think about what I'm eating. Also got a DIY satay kit which I'm looking forward to trying out once S and R return from Orlando. I also got really long chopsticks - they are not for eating with but for cooking with. It'll be useful turning stuff in the frying pan, or even flipping over stuff on the grill. Not as great as tongs cos obviously chopsticks are a bit fiddly (esp giant ones!!) but good because if you've got a crazy spitting pan you don't have to get close. In fact, since my kitchen is so small I should be able to turn food over from my sofa lol
Below we have two sandals that I got from Primark. The black pair was £12 and the nude pair were a bargain at £8. I love both pairs, probably more so the nude pair because i love nude/tan footwear.

The black pair were a last minute random grab......and with that comes a slight problem. I did try the shoe on one orange foot but couldn't be bothered to try both (do you know how jam packed Primark was?!) So anyway, I get home and try on both and erm...left foot doesn't quite fit. But I love them so I think I'll keep them anyway lol (Basically the front strap - also has a toe post you can't see - isn't wide enough for my big foot).
Next up we have my 'wish I brought' shoes:

Below are a pair of boots I've been dreaming of since Saturday. They are on sale at £45 and I'd get a further discount if I buy them from House of Fraser. The only problem is that I am in between sizes and the bigger size means my toes doesn't even show out of the peep toe (this bootie is so me: taupey colour, cone heel, girly but quirky, peep toe (it's a shoe from heaven)) and the smaller size means that...well, my whole foot doesn't fit!!!!!
Below we just have loads of random sale items from Office. How cute are those heart pumps!? Practical dupes of the Viv Westwood beauties. I want i want i want!!!
