So...I've been shopping :)

Hey Surfers,

Anyone else suffering from hay fever? my house is wall to wall flowers so there is literally no escape!

Today I thought I’d do a bit of a haul post, I have been spending inordinate amounts of money lately and figured I would share my purchases with you.

Firstly I visited the Superdry outlet store which recently opened in my town (where everything is 40% off of the RRP). I was amazed at how cheap everything was and really had to hold myself back from buying up half of their stock...luckily for me I was strapped for time so could only spend a few minutes in there; still, I managed to pick up a couple of nice things.


 The first is this dress, I’ve seen it on the Superdry website many times and have always kind of wanted to purchase it, so when I saw it in the store, reduced, I picked it up right away.

Sorry about the rubbish picture guys, just couldn't seem to get a good one...
I’m not really one for dresses but this one just really caught my eye. Unfortunately, after trying it on at home I decided to return it to the store. The dress looked great on the hanger but would have been more suited to my four year old niece than myself. I didn't know that Super Dry don't actually do refunds, its either a swap or a voucher so I had another look and swapped the dress for this hoodie.





It's really warm but not too bulky which is nice for spring time, the only issue is I'm terrified of spilling something on it which is always a problem when wearing white. I did wear it for Mufti Day at work, and am proud to say that despite eating berries and drinking coffee it remains stain free!...for now..

I also purchased this t-shirt. As soon as I picked it up I loved the feel of the fabric, definite quality. Again, something that I have had my eye on for a while so was really happy to find it. Tried it on when I got home and am really pleased with it, can’t wait for the weather to warm up so I can wear it out.

Paired with a pair of jeans and a light leather jacket, perfect casual outfit.


Switching to a different shop now,a little while back I bought myself a card holder from Biba. The yellow Bershka bag I got from Westfield  is actually smaller than my day to day wallet...so I had to get a smaller wallet for when I use it, or any of my other small bags. It's also perfect for days when I don't want to be weighed down by a bag at all; I can just throw in my debit card, I.D and some cash and I'm good for the day :)

Really love the patent leather, it's a very elegant piece.

It will even hold coins :)
I've used it a few times so far and its very convenient, though takes a bit of getting used to, especially when you usually lug around a hefty wallet which holds about a thousand loyalty cards and a small ecosystem of receipts. :)

Last, but by no means least, a little technology: as a photographer, and I use the term loosely :D, I take hundreds of pictures and then, instead of just keeping the good ones, I will just save the whole contents of both my memory cards to my laptop...*guilty face*
This bad habit of mine was quickly filling up my hard drive so I decided to get myself an external one to use for all of my pictures, though I swear one day I will delete the rubbish ones...maybe..



I chose this Seagate because it was 1 Terabyte of storage at only £60.00 which was pretty good, I've now emptied my laptop of junk and keep everything on here. The one disappointing thing about this hard drive is that some of the space is already used up by the programs which come pre-loaded, such as the back up function, so you don't actually get a whole terabyte, but its still a hefty amount of storage and those programs have to be somewhere, so I'm not going to complain :)

I hope you enjoyed this little haul post, there will be no more shopping for me (lies)
 I'll be back next Sunday.

Love E

I don't understand what she is doing...
