Dotcomgiftshop sale buys.

So today I thought I would spend the whole day drinking and looking online in the sales! As that is how exciting my New Years Eve is! But I have got some cool bargains that I obviously didn't need, but that are so cute, I just HAD to have :) There are 4 items and with postage it came to £11.64!
Dotcomgiftshop is a really cool website, with loads of cute and quirky things, I usually find gift websites can be full of tacky stuff, but not this one :) Also the sale is amazing, pages and pages and pages full of lovelyness! So much money off! So here is what I purchased...

Rambling Rose Block Desk Calendar

£2.95

 

was £9.95

This lovely lovely wooden block calender is so cute and will look adorable in my room on my bedside table. Also saving £7, bargain!  :)

Fairy Tale Cottage Night Light

£2.50

 

was £4.95

I got so overly excited when I saw this night light! Although it is for children.. we shall forget that.. my lamp broke so I have fairy lights, a light up pig, a light up owl and now a light up cottage!! Eeeek! I am so excited!!!

Pink Doughnut Trinket Pot

£1.95

 

was £3.95

This purchase was a bit random but I have lots of stud earrings and little bits that get lost easily, especially hair grips! And I have been looking for a trinket box, and this doughnut is not my usual style (vintage/shabby chic) but I thought it was sooooo cute and pink and lovely and for less than £2 I couldn't really say no!

Folding Umbrella White/red Polkadot

 

£1.29

 

was £12.95

This purchase was probably the most practical thing that I got! A spotty umbrella! I lost/broke a million! The saving is pretty impressive too!

So that is what I got, I am very excited for them all to arrive and I will update with more pictures! :)

Charity shop playsuit OOTN

So in my last post I wrote a little bit about my new playsuit that was £5 from a charity shop. I wore it out the other night for a Chrismas meal and thought I would take some photos before the night to show you how I styled it, and another chance to test out my new camera! :)

My eyes are retarded, but I found a festive 'JOY' sign and got excited. 

Dad jumped in the photo!

So I decided to wear the black and white aztec playsuit with a white cardigan for warmth and comfort and a burgundy bowler hat to add some colour :)

The sign came out again

It was the perfect thing to wear for a roast! roomy!!

Right, bit of a short post but I'll be doing more ootd posts soon :) Also like that the photos are taken in my houses, all countrysidey :)

Charity Shop Challenge

So I have not been on here since October! Oops, but I am going to be on here a lot more from Jan 1st! This is because this is when my Charity Shop challenge starts, where I am only going to be buying my clothes from charity shops, for a whole year! It's very exciting, and I am hoping to blog and vlog some of it :)
I am really excited to try this because as much as I love some clothes from high street shops, shopping in them stresses me out, the people, what to buy, trying to keep up with whatever trends are in.. I find shopping in charity shops so exciting, I could spend hours in them! so you may be thinking it won't be a challenge for me but I am pretty sure it will! I do buy clothes from them regularly but I've never found jeans or trousers in them, or coats so it's going to be interesting. And also ofcourse it means all the money I spend on clothes will be going to charity, lots of different charities! Which is amazing. Charity shops also tend to be bloody cheap! So I can start saving my money from my new job to pay off my overdraft or save, or whatever :) So atm I am really super excited for it and I can't wait to start! I thought I'd get in the charity shop mood by showing you a playsuit I got the other day from scope! I am in love with it! It has a super cute black and white aztec print and was originally from glamourous which I think they sell at New look? It was only £5 and fits really nice! It isn't too lose on the top so doesn't make me look bigger than I am as it goes in nice at the waist, but it's quite loose at the bottom so feels kinda like a dress and it's super comfy.

Also these photos were taken with my new Nikon L820 bridge camera which I am very excited to play around with! As will be using it a lot soon! :)

But yes, more will be happening on here soon, promise :)
