So I once again made a little trip to Primark, there wasn't actually anything in particular that I was looking for. I had been having a snoop on Instagram and watching several haul videos over on YouTube, and had seen some lovely items. Typically when I do this I can never find these gems in my local Primark let alone find my size!

this time however I was actually pleasantly  surprised. I managed to squeeze in a visit just before England played which meant that it was lovely and quiet so was actually a present shopping experience to!



The first item is this lovely wrap around dress I was instantly drawn to the colour, I think that I have seen a blue version on some other hauls but I think for me I preferred this one and its not normally a colour that I would choose. It is a wrap around style which is a really flattering cut, I think that I will need to wear a little cami top under this or a bra let as it is still rather look cut on me!

I also like that it is a good length, as I have said before I am only 5ft 1in so finding dresses that are of a flattering length can be a little bit of a challenge. For £10 I though that this was a really good buy. I'm hoping that the sunshine sticks around long enough for me to get some wear out of it now!

I almost walked passed this time, I was having a little look through the swimwear section as I am going on holiday to Gran Canaria next month. This was where I found this cover up, it was actually £5 reduced from £12 so for that price I thought I would give it a go. It will be perfect for around the pool or venturing to the restaurant lunch time!

I was again a little worried about the length, but I think that it will be fine. Its actually not a bad fit it will work fine especially with my wedged sandals.

These next couple of items are this top and shorts. I was drawn to the shorts as I loved the embroidered pattern on the sides I though that it really added something and made them look more expensive than Primark. These were however £12 and I am not sure if its just me and I am aware that that is gernally a good price for a pair of denim shorts, I feel that this may be a bit more expensive for Primark?

I loved the fact that these are high waisted as for some reason I don't own a pair of high waisted denim shorts which I know is crazy! The top I thought was a really lovely cut I love the floaty sleeves, and for £4 I thought thus was a bargain. Just need to remember a nude bra underneath it!

The next top I styled with the same shorts, its a polka dot pattern, which I really like but I love the strap detail I feel that it just makes it look that little bit different. It is rather baggy but I like the way it looks tucked in.

The final two clothing items are this mustard colored button down top and a white pair of skinny jeans. I love these two colours together. Again I brought the top a size larger as I think that it looks nicer a little bit baggier. It is a great top for the summer and I can see me using it for many outfits, this was only £4 to.

I do own a pair of skinny jeans they are my trusty Joni jeans from Topshop, I have loved wearing them but been white they have seen better days and they are actually starting to go a little bit bobbly in some areas so I thought I was time for another pair. I have got these Primark jeans in other colours before and I feel that they wear well so I am hoping that these will be the same. The only issue which is totally my fault is that I picked up a 34 inch leg! Yes what an idiot I was ready to take these back but I think that I actually like the look of the cuffed? So I might just keep these as they are. These were £9

Next is this lovely lace skater style dress. I love this style I think it is the perfect wedding guest outfit (Handy as I have a few coming up over the next few months) The only thing I will say is that I think that this come up a  little bit big on me, it seems bigger than their usual sizing. There is however adjustable straps, which for people like me with a smaller chest its a good thing!

Here is a lovely LBD, it was described as denim and it definitely a thicker fabric which I do think is lovely it feels great quality. It also has a chunky metal zip on the back! Can we just take a moment to appreciate that! I hate that some lovely dresses are ruined by a cheap plastic zip that always manages to get stuck! Nothing worse when you are tying to get out your dress after a night out. This zip glides like a dream! The only critisizm if any, ( as I do really love this dress) is the lace on the side kind of sticks out, I'm sure a good iron can sort that out though!

This is a lovely little grey summer dress, I tend to gravitate towards grey! Its nice and thin a great day dress. Its also a great lengh on me, this style sometimes is too long, this is a perfect length. This one howeber is a little snug I would have probably sized up if I had the choice again, as I would probably wear this as a more casual dress and a girl likes to be comfy!

Last but not least is this lovely lace dress, there is so much detail on here, I believe this should have been the most expensive of them all and its clear to see why. It fits great and is very flattering. Again it feels great quality, back to the plastic zips i'm afraid bit it does move pretty smoothly. The tassel detailing is just beautiful and really makes it looks different from other back dresses that I currently own.

Definitely keep you eye out for a deal like this again, I'm not sure whether it was intentional to clear old stick or was genuinely a glitch either way I'm one happy girly, Hope you managed to grab some bargains to!
