October Buys

Pinch, punch, it's the first of the month!!!

Happy October everyone!

I had to nip out earlier to fetch some samples for work and while I was out I felt it was only fair to have a peek in the shops to see what was new so I decided to treat myself to some Autumn goodies!!!

 

 

From left to right we have:

 

Black lace dress from H&M (£14.99) I'm probably the only person who doesn't own a plain black dress! My friend is having a black dress and coloured tights theme for her hen do in a couple of weeks so I had to buy a dress, I didn't really want to spend a fortune so I was pleased when I found this! I like the fact that it's lacough lace seems to be in every year.

 

Next up we have some indigo supersoft jeans from Primark (£11.00) I usually buy my jeans from Topshop but I bought a pair of burgundy supersoft jeans from Primark last Winter and they are without a doubt the comfiest jeans I have ever owned! I always like to wear really dark coloured jeans once it gets to this time of year so thought I'd give these ones a try.

 

Another Primark item is the black and white houndstooth jumper (£12.00) I've got loads of jumpers already but I guess you can never have too many right? In case you've been living under a rock, houndstooth is a big trend for Autumn/Winter 2012, they also had this jumper in a pink and black version. I don't think you can ever go wrong with black and white though, it always looks effortlessly classy, the jumper is also suprisingly thick for £12.00! Bargain!

 

 

The second jumper I bought is from H&M (£14.99) when I think of Winter I always think of sparkle and this jumper definitley fits the bill!
I'm not sure if its that clear on my picture but its an emerald green colour with silver sparkly thread running through it, they also had this in a few different other colours but the green one was my favourite!

And finally we have some dark purple jeans, also from H&M (£14.99) I saw a similar pair to this in Primark but they didn't have any left in my size! Typical!
Purple is my favourite colour and I was a bit gutted thinking I wouldn't be able to get any, but then low and behold, I found these in H&M!
Although they're not branded as being supersoft or anything like that they do feel quite nice and soft so I'm interested to see how I get on with them.
They might be a few pounds more than the ones I saw in Primark but I still don't think £15.00 is bad for a pair of jeans when I'm used to spending £40.00!

 

I'd nipped into Superdrug to pick up some nail dry spray for my Mum and when having a casual browse I came across this!

 

It's from a brand called MeMeMe, I'm guessing they must be exclusive to Superdrug as I've not seen their products anywhere else.

 

What attracted me at first is the fact that it looks like Benefit Posietint, which I currently use, it's in a similar sized and coloured bottle and the name 'Poppytint' is pretty similar too.

 

The only thing that isn't the same is the price tag, Posietint normally sets me back £24.50 a time whereas Poppytint is £5.65, at only a fraction of the price I figured it couldn't hurt to try it and I will be giving this a whirl when my Posietint has run out.

 

 

I'll do an individual review on this later
