It's Electrifyin' | Outfit Post

Blue Laser Cut out Top - Primark | Disco Pants - New Look 
Necklace - Dorothy Perkins | Boots - MaryJane Fashion

Good Friday you lovely bunch, I hope you're all dolling up right this second for a good night out! Or if not, doing a night in right with fluffy pyjamas and copious amounts of food that's bad for you but tastes fantastic, either or. 

Just a little outfit post for you all, feat the electric blue top I picked up in Primark for a whopping £5, BARGAIN. And on the subject of Primark, did you know you can now make a profile for 'Primania' which is on the Primark website and is a bit of a lookbook in which you need to be wearing a Primark piece. Naturally, I've signed up and would be mighty gracious if you could pop on over to my little space and 'fan' and 'like' my looks and such (there's only this one so far, but shush).

Now, I have never owned a pair of these Disco Pants and thought I'd try out a New Look pair, as I'd never tried them before, and I didn't want (couldn't afford) to splash out on a pair of the American Apparel ones. They do make me feel a little conscious- 
*my thighs look fat*
*obvious VPL*
*MASSIVE BUM*

BUT, they are super comfortable and after a few beverages, they make me feel like the twerking queen.


Now for the shoes, I was so very lucky enough to win this gorgeous pair of shoes from MaryJane Fashion and boy do I love 'em! They give me height, which I love, and, you know, gives me that extra security knowing that if I'm ever attacked whilst wearing these, I'd have the advantage.

Anybody else picked up some bargains lately?
And I hope everybody has a magical Friday night!

River Island Loves







All Clothing - River Island
Red Velvet boots - Rocket Dog or New Look
My Necklace - Miss Selfridge
My Earrings - Primark

Myself and mother went for a little stroll around Swindon town center today to look for homey things to go in my family's newly cleaned house. However it may have turned solely into a shopping trip. Maybe.
Still having not been paid I had a little cry inside every time I found something wonderful (which always happens when you have no money!) Especially when I arrived at River Island! 

I've never been the biggest River Island fan as, although I am a little out-going with my sense of style, their clothing has always been a little TOO out-there for me. However today, I found myself wanting everything they had in! So I had to take myself a few cheeky dressing-room snaps, to remind myself what I HAVE to purchase when I receive payment.

As we all know, burgundy is a massive colour this season and when I spotted this super soft cardigan I fell in love! It had tiny little golden beaded studs all over it, and more-so on the cuffs. However, it was £35, which I though was a little steep, but maybe that's just me. Please make it £25 River Island, please.

This Floral skater skirt I also fell in love with. This print and colours are gorgeous and I have had a real big thing for skirts, and especially skater skirts lately. I feel they are really complimentary on my figure. Actually, my mum bought this for me because I kept repeating how much I loved it, I love her!

These Velvet Rocket Dog boots weren't actually in River Island but I found them in Treds for £40 and were the ones from my wish list! Pay day come soon. 

And Finally this adorable Pleather skate skirt. I have been after one of these for ages and this one was such a fab fit! If you do not yet own one of these, I suggest you go grab one up! They are so cute and fashionable  and definitely in my good books at the mo!

Extremely sorry for the essay, Sophie xxxx

Red and Black Ballerina





Dress - Dorothy Perkins - £20
Ring - Dorothy Perkins  - £1
Necklace - Dorothy Perkins - £2
Nails - Barry M Raspberry £2.99
Shoes - Primark - £8

Last weekend I went to visit my family and my best friend for my brother's birthday. However for me, home trips always turn into shopping trips. Going to town with my mum and best friend is always lethal, even though it isn't that a big a town. 

This dress is one my friend picked up, and I was all 'I'll try it on with you!' I ended up buying the beauty. Well, I say me, my beautiful boyfriend paid as he's lovely with surprises like that! I think it's beautiful as the red-black contrast works and the skirt of it puffs out in like a 1950's style. I also love the ribbon waist. 

The ring my mum pointed out, as you know, I am a massive pug lover, but am aso a MASSIVE rabbit lover. I'll maybe introduce you to my gorgeous late bunny Humphrey one day.. (He was bigger than a dog!) Anyways, for £1 I could hardly say no, it's way too cute!!

I bought a few other bits and pieces too, which I think I'll do in my next post, as I am still new to blogging and don't want to run out of things to blog about already!

And again, thank you all so much for following me! It really does make me grin like Cheshire Cat! Who's feeling a 100 followers giveaway? I know I am! :)

I need help.



Top 
Jumper - £3.50 - Charity shop, originally Primark
Skirt - £12 - New Look
Bottom 
Dress - £11 - Primark 

Having no job at the moment leaves me very tight for money. But there are reasons why I am currently jobless so it's okay. But i try not to let myself leave the house as I don't want to face myself with temptations. However today, I DID leave the house and managed to spend £50. Although I got a bargain jumper and plain stripey t-shirt from a charity shop and an AMAZING dress from Primark. I originally found this dress online on the Look website, but did not realise what material it is. I hate it, that lycra, spandexy feel material that clings to your body and shows all of your lumps and bumps. But I loved the print so much I had to buy it, I just may have to wear my Bridget Jones pants when I wear it.

Going for gold!

The last week I have managed to snap up some amazing sale buys, especially in the jewellery section. 
Since living a 5-7 minute walk from town, it's so easy just to get up and have a look around (also lethal though, if you ask me, since I don't yet own a money tree.) 
Now, I never have been, and probably never WILL be a silver person. Jewellery wise, I have always worn gold. Don't ask why, that's just how it's always been. Now, as we are in light of a very 'gold-themed-England' due to the Olympics, I thought I'd show you the few pieces I've snapped up this week

Dorothy Perkins - £2 down from £16

Dorothy Perkins - £2 down from £10

Primark - £1 down from £4

Miss Selfridge - £1 down from £10

Topshop - £3 down from £16

Those that know me know that I am an extreme high-street shopper, but most of all, an extreme sales shopper. Never having had too much money, I can never quite find the point in spending £12 or so in a necklace, which is the going rate these days. So I get all giddy when I find buys like these. 
Anyone else found any bargain jewellery lately?
