Courtney Tassel Vest £14.00
Courtney Fair Isle Shorts £18.00
Snuggle Slipper Socks - Pink £10.00
Ballet Pumps £4 & £6
So it might seem that I have done a lot of shopping recently. Well you wouldn't be wrong! I have been preparing for winter and as I had a little bit of birthday money left, why not?
Boux Avenue has recently opened up in Bristol city centre, if you have one near you it is well worth a visit. They have lovely lingerie which looks a lot like the underwear you would see in Victoria's Secret but for a fraction of the price, plus the shop assistants are very friendly and helpful. However I was shopping for more practical things - cute pyjamas and slipper socks! I was instantly drawn to these Courtney Fair Isle Shorts mainly because of the cute reindeer's on them. I know it's not Christmas yet but I couldn't resist. You might think that I am odd buying shorts to sleep in for the winter but trust me when I say that my body temperature runs a few degrees higher than a normal persons! So I also got the white Courtney Tassel Vest to match because I do like matching sets and these look cute together. The material is super soft and very comfortable.
I also wanted to get some of their Snuggle Slipper Socks as I had previously seem them in the Cardiff store and thought that they would be perfect for cosy evenings at home. I was going to get the grey pair but when I saw that if I bought the pink pair £1 would be donated to Breast Cancer Care I thought I would get those ones instead. I love these, they are warm and perfect for winter.
I then visited Primark, I am lucky because Bristol is home to one of their flagship stores and it is huge, four floors huge! I was actually looking for a pair of Burgundy Jeans as I had seen a pair in there for £11, unfortunately they had sold out in everything but a size 20 -- oh well! So I went hunting for the second thing I needed from there, new shoes for work. I found these two little gems of ballet flats (with a little help from my boyfriend) for only £4 and £6 each, you can't go wrong with that.
So that's me done with shopping until October pay day. Have you bought anything recently?

I love Primark shoes and for the price I find they normally last quite long. The burgundy jeans sound nice and perfect for this time of year. I've never dared wear coloured jeans though maybe it's something I should give a go

Burgundy jeans are perfect for this time of the year! I just bought a pair from Topshop this weekend and they are very flattering! x
DeleteBargainess! We are lucky to have such a huge Primark but I also hate that the small sizes sell out first - waaaah!! Boux is amazing, their customer service is top notch.
