Budget Buys + What I Wore Today

. May 31, 2012 .


I've been trying to save money recently for holidays and festivals this summer so I've been on a bit of a budget! So, first stop was Primark where I picked up some new shades, a cute vest, and some gorgeous zebra print slipper-style pumps! I'm also wearing my new Levi's high-waisted skinny jeans, i found them in a charity store on Park Street (for those of you that know bristol!), and fell in love with them! They are teeny-tiny but I was absolutely determined to squeeze my derrière into them because the cut and fit are amazing! They're authentic originals too, so with an £8 price tag I couldn't not have them. Another money saving buy I've purchased is through my monthly magazines! The free gifts with some of this months Fashion monthlies are absolutely amazing! Firstly with Elle Magazine there was a limited jubilee edition free Reiss vest top, It's light and so wearable for the summer, Glamour also had an amazing free gift with a piece of Benefit make-up for every reader, either their iconic Bad Gal mascara, Porefessional Primer or That-gal primer. I planned to but all three but unfortunately they only had Badgal and Porefessional in my local Tesco :( I also picked up InStyle magazine which had 2 free eye-liners form Bodyshop in black and a gorgeous navy. So all in all I've had a brilliant couple of bargain filled days :)


Yellow print vest, Pumps, Glasses - Primark
Levi's, Hoop Earing, Cross necklce - Vintage
Aztec earing - Topshop
Bracelets - Various market stalls
