cheeky charity buys

oxfam - £3.49

oxfam- £5.99
oxfam- £4.00



oxfam- £2.00

got this bag given to me, its been a life saver the past few days.

vintage coat- ryan vintage manchester - £20
Been so long since ive blogged again, im so sorry! not lost any followers though so thankyou. been so busy, and getting pretty drunk everyweekend which has made my work slack alot, so ive been trying to catch up on all my sketchbooks. got assesed yesterday, did pretty well considering i did most of it in the past 3 days.
thought id treat myself to a few things from the charity shop, the top 4 items are from yesterday the coat is from a few weeks ago in manchester.
i love this cardigan, it was in the mens section of oxfam. smells abit like cigs aswell but nothing a wash wont get rid off! been wearing it all day today it looks so cute! wore it with my DIY peter pan collar top i made (might make a tutorial sometime) and my jeans and my red boating shoes.
Which is my next item im going to talk about. these are so cute im a size 7 feet. these are a size 8 so they flip off a little but i can still walk in them and love them so im not scured. ahahah! new little saying i have. sorry. ahaha. i write as if im talking to you all. need to sort it.
my black boots are so cute! i had a pair like this from peacocks last year but they are now ruined. i was in my 3d class and stood on a craft knife and thankfully it didnt slice my foot open but it did slice my boot. gutted i was but yesterday i found these cheeky monkeys ahaha! bought them, although they are a size 6, they're abit tight but ill make them fit. 
just bought this cute little jumper with flowers on, it will do for college.
my addidas bag, my auntie gave me a few things in this bag, but i liked the bag more than the things. so ive been using it to take all my sketchbooks to college. actually got a few compliments on it. ahaha i think they are only like £3. but its such a good simple bag. i love it. must invest in some more shopper bags.
this coat, fell in love as soon as i saw it, was supposed to spend the £20 on some food shopping for home, because im on a diet where i buy my own teas like weightwatcher meals. but i just had to have this coat instead of them! best buy ever. if you live in manchester go to ryan vintage its amazing! also abit furthur up is the £3 and under shop. amazinggggg shops.

day at the market

evening! not posting much again im so sorry! went to the market today after being in college for 20 minutes to be told ive not passed ahaha! ive not passed but my social life has been pretty good lately. need to sort my college head out. just a quick post and i hope your all well

i bought this cheeky little quilted jacket from the charity shop on the way to the market for £2.99 im in love with quilted stuff at the minute. just bought a green one like this from international for £14.99, it makes me look like a farmer but i really wanted one with the patches on. was so excited when i found this on the rail.
my aunty gave me this scarf this afternoon, yes its real! shes kind of loaded. im in love with it so much but its one of those things when people dont expect you to have something so you dont want to wear it incase people think its fake haha. got a bag to match this a few weeks ago too.
bought this scarf off the market for 50p. its so pretty. i doubt its going to keep me very warm, but hey it looks nice.

i also love this one i bought for 50p. its different animal prints. some shinny some not. eee im so in love.

my favourite buy of the day.

this huge coat. its such a nice material i cant even explain. its from the company 'mandarina and duck' its so big on me but i lovvvvve it! its not one of those raincoats what you sweat your back out wearing either. i cant wait to wear it to college, its going to be like heaven in this horrible weather were having at the moment.
my pocahontas shoes! i bought these a few weeks ago from ebay! i dont think ive taken them off yet. ive been caught in the rain a few times in them so there abit worn already. im going through a stage at the minute where i just wear one pair of shoes at a time and nothing else, not even slippers. these are the shoes ive been wearing constantly. had so many lovely comments too.

ebay and h&m

im just going to get straight into this post, i need to straighten my hair (aaaah having my hair straight) and get ready for dancing on ice
my poncho! aaaaaaaaaahhhhh im in love! ive wanted a poncho for so long now! there was a £12.99 one in h&m i fell in love with but they dont sell it on the website and i havent got the cash so i found this beauty on ebay! the seller said its from urban outfitters and i love that shop. it was £8.50 and £4.00 delivery, so £12.00 really and im so pleased with it, i cant wait for it to comee.

H&M was very appealing today, you may or may not know ive been looking for a dress for a christening and this is the one, well i have two christenings to go to and i ordered one off asos and they sent the wrong dress and then when i asked for an exchange they just refunded me and now i cant find the dress. however i fell in love with this one, £24.99. i get so excited over clothes its mad.
BARGIN OF THE DAY! £2.99 FOR A DRESS.
which i think are lovely! however you can only have one per customer but i couldnt let them go so i created another account and ordered another, i had to pay for postage twice :(
you should all go and get one! they'll be great for summer!

ive wanted a nice skirt for a while now to put a belt around and just head off to college, so ive bought this one for £7.99 i seen it in h&m a few weeks ago and couldnt decide whether or not to buy it. but now i have bought it and i caaaaan not wait for all my things to comee!
this is going to be my new trademark! i cant wait to wear this everyday in summer with my ombre and middle parting! im not sure how much this was now? 
THEY NEED TO COMEEEE NOWW!
i cant wait, i bet its just me who gets far to excited for clothes coming!
i got outbid on a lovely pair of wedges, i was so gutted.
right i need to go and get on with straightening my hair and catching up on my sketchbook!
hope you've had a lovely weekend!

market

checked blouse- £2, market
cropped cable knit cardigan- £2, charity shop
boots- £3, market
budda- £10
i woke up at half eight and was on the bus to manchester with my gran, well halfway to manchester i went to harperay. theres two markets there, one that i cant spell which is like a carboot type and then you get the odd fellow selling illegal dvds and weed. harperay market which is like a proper market with stalls that are there everyweek.
There was a man selling lots of shoes for £3 its a shame they only had these in my size, they had wedges and everything but they were all size 5, sadly im size 7. i love these shoes and im so happy i got them for £3 theyre like old man shoes though, my sister hates them and my mums not so keen, but they hate my fashion sense anyway so i dont care ahaha.
i got two tops off the market (i cant spell) ones just a plain camel coloured top which is alot longer than i thought but i could still wear it with leggings and i got the blouse in the top photo, im in love with the blouse abit too much, i feel like a boy wearing it because a boy in my class wears one similar. i hope he doesnt wear it tomorrow whilst im planning to wear mine.
me and my mum are going through a phase of buddas, we spoke to my aunty on skype from australia and told us all about them, how you rub their stomach and it brings you fortune so i decided to buy my mother one for mothers day, she did see it today though when she was routing through my bag, so its not a suprise but she did love it.
harperay market next, i bought this cardigan which is soooo cute for £2 from a charity shop on the market.
my sister picked us up and ive spent the rest of the day/night at her house looking after my baby (niece, dont worry ive not got a child) because shes really poorly and wont settle for anyone. she likes me singing james blunt- 1973, dont ask i had it in my head one day and now she loves it and it sends her to sleep even though i cant sing a note ahahah
ive had a good day. hows your day/week going?

spend






acutally cant stop spending, FIRST IS MY BANG TIDY NEW DRESS for a christening on sunday, not today aha. £40 off asos, it was the last in my size and the effort it took me to get it, asos's website was being an idiot and not letting me sign in, so i was stressing out quite alot. just waiting for it to be delivered and ill get a picture up as soon as i can.
My shoes, ive been buying shoes alot lately, mostly boots like this aha. i love these though, i was going to get them in brown but i have a thing of buying brown shoes, ive got too many. ive wanted some ankle boots like this for a while now, i kept looking on ebay to find some granny ones but none i liked came up. these were only £12.50 and i love them, i only ordered them today but i cant wait for them to come!!! i'd wear these with thick socks or frilly ones or maybe short legwarmers that i have.
These two t-shirts was buy one get one free and both of them was £12 each so its cost me £12 for both, i love them i need tops like this for college etc theres not many tops i like, i really liked the stiped one and i like the lepeard one because its abit quirky and i love the colour of it. i think i'll just wear these with jeans to college.
mmmm this jumper, ive been looking at it for ages now it looks so cosy!!!! it does look like one of those long jumpers though, i dont like them much but ill just fold it up, they make my bum look huge!! ahah.
have you found any sneeky sales latley?

chelsea

is my middle name. IVE FINALLY GOT MYSELF A PAIR OF CHELSEA BOOTS and im so pleased with how much ive payed for them!!! ive been looking and watching a few on ebay and i only found these today with an hour left and no bids for £6 so i was like yessss as soon as i found them, made sure i bidded when 2 minutes was left so i got them abit pricey for delivery £5 but i didnt mind because i really like them, i need a good pair of boots, my uggs have paint all over them and i usually wear them like everyday. I have Dr martens but they rub me too much to wear all day at college. so pleased with them

treated myself to a few things in boots. i know i know its natutral collection but ive been watching a few hauls on youtube and a few people have been using them so ive decided to dish out and buy a few things, firstly is the duo eyeshadow, i like very plain make up, not bright colours and i dont really wear anything on my eyes except mascara and i dont like eyeliner so much so i thought id try out these eyeshadows, it just makes my eye a tiny bit darker and i really like it. its a brown shade and a white/cream called mocha/latte shade i also bought another eyeshadow called willow, so ive been practacing today and i use the latte colour on the inside of my eye and then the willow closest to my lashes and in the crease of my lid the brown mocha colour i think i might start wearing it as my everyday makeup. next i bought a new blush, i seen this on youtube and i cant remember who posted it but its called peach melba, its such a nice colour, its quite a deep pink to what i'd normally go for but its different and it goes with my foundation very well. i also bought a lipstick just to carry in my bag everywhere for college mainly, natural collection again its called Rose petal, all of these i bought are £1.99 each and i think it was buy 3 for £5? im not sure the women said something about a deal for £5.
Id love mac makeup etc but im not one of those people who spend lots on makeup, i buy the basics what i need, im still not decided on my foundation shade so much yet, it keeps changing, in winter i like a lighter one and in summer i like a darker shade and at the moment ive only got darker shades so i keep feeling abit orange because im so pale in the winter.
as for a more personal post, im very sorry ive not been posting much on anything, facebook, twitter, tumblr and here! and youtube sorry! i said id have a video but im off now for a week! so expect one, this past week has been abit crazy had so much work to try and finish for today (thursday) because its my last day of college for a week and two days. Ive had a really nice day today though and i hope this next week is aswel!
So much to catch up on aswell! i might just spend tomorrow watching everything ive recorded! ive missed vampire diaries and like 3 weeks of skins!!
i also need to find myself something to wear for a christening on the 27th! id like a black dress with sheer long sleeved arms, i seen one in newlook but its sold out now :( and they havent got my size online. im so upset.
Hope your all doing okay! see you this week
