July Primark Haul

Hey guys!

Long time, no post. I hope you're all doing well. I got a job and I've been busy hence no posts. However I could not pass up on the opportunity of showing you all my finds from Primark. I hope you enjoy and I apologise in advance for the obscene amount of selfies, however I wanted to show you the clothes on me, rather than just laid out.

Fistly I bought this bowler  (?) hat from H'n'M for £7.99. You'll see it in the upcoming pics and I bought it on the same trip so I thought I'd include it in this post.   

 First thing from Primark is a bikini. The pattern is not completly my style but I loved the cut as the bottom is slightly high-waisted and neither of the parts is skimpy. I prefer bikinis like this as I feel like they are more flattering on me and I feel less self concious in them.

Top : Size 10 : £8
Bottom : Size 12 : £5

 Next up I bought a few things from Primark. When I was browsing the tops I saw nothing that I liked and I realised that I'm not a top person. I prefer simple, plain tops or cool sweatshirts and t-shirts rather than the sheer blouses, fancy crops and g*d knows what else. So I opted for  3 vest tops one in blue, lilac and white all for £2 each.  I figured they'd go with pretty much anything.
I also bought the Kimono. I really liked it's Aztec style print and it's affordable price since I wasn't too sure about the kimono trend so I figured cheap is good. Now that I own it I think that it looks awesome and I think that it will become a staple in my summer wardrobe. It's only downside is that the inside is not printed so it doesn't look the best when it pops out :( However for the price I don't really think I can complain

The shorts I picked up from ARK not Primark but like the hat it was on the same trip so I'm including them. I got them on sale and they were the last pair. I think that they're very flattering as the cover the thickest part of my thighs thereby making my legs appear slimmer. They are also very comfortable unlike the denim shorts I bought from H'n'M a couple of months back. I cannot walk or sit in those comfortably but these don't cause discomfort. They were originally £30 but I got them for a bargainous £12.

Kimono : Size 12 : £8
Vests : Size 12 ( I wanted them loose) : £2 each
Shorts : ARK : Size 12 ( loose fit) : £12

 Next, I picked up this paisley print  maxi skirt. On the picture above I'm wearing it back to front but I preferred having the slits show off my legs, making the skirt a bit more flirty. The elastic in the skirt is quite stretchy so I could have gotten away in picking it up in a size 8 however due to my height (I'm 5ft9 ) it would have been to short so I opted for size up from my normal size.

Skirt : Size 12: £10

The subsequent item that I picked up was this beautiful baby blue, faux leather jacket. It's an alternative for the same style jacket from ZARA that is sold for a whopping £90 and is apparently quite stiff and uncomfortable. This jacket is lovely and soft and very flattering. I think it'll be perfect for cooler summer days, nights and early autumn. They also had this jacket also in baby pink ( which I was considering buying, but I already have a leather jacket in that colour  and blue is less seasonal than pink), grey and I think white. Maybe some more. I considered the getting the grey jacket since it can be worn year round but it had fugly yellow-gold zippers which made it look tacky and cheap :/ So far I'm very pleased with my choice ;)

Jacket : Size 12 : £25

In addition to the vests, I picked up this plain, two colour t-shirt. I think that it looks really good tied up as the white makes it appeared more detailed. 

T-shirt : Size 10 : £2 ( originally £5)

Next up I bought this dress. It was paired with similar to the ones I'm wearing and I kimono and I thought it was the coolest outfit ever. So I bought it ;P It has beautiful open back which makes it quite flirty but I couldn't get a decent picture of it. If I do I'll make sure to post it. The only downside of it is that the waist is not stretchy so no room for food babies :/

Dress : Size 10 : £12

I also picked up this beauty. I don't even have words for how much I adore this dress. It's so feminine, flowy and classy and I think I'm gonna wear it for my birthday this year which is in just over a month's time. They had this in colours like baby-blue, white, peach, lilac and many others. I'm considering going back and picking it up in another colour. 

Dress : Size 8 : £10 (!!!)

I also picked up this pair of funky gingham high waited pants. I thought they were really fun. The thing is they're supposed to be ankle grazers and they're pretty far up from my ankles. #TallGirlProbz I think I can get away with it. They're soft and stretchy and in my eyes, simply cool. 

Pants : Size 12 : £13

Now for the show stealers, these beautiful sand coloured booties. They are the perfect year round shoes (at least in England) and they give a festival-esque feel to any outfit. Simply in love.

Booties : Size 6 ( wide fit but I wear normal fit, that's just where I fond them) : £18

I also picked up this cute pink bag. I think it'll be a good summer alternative to my small, black River Island bag. 

Bag : £6

 The last thing that I bought was this awesome flower crown. It makes me go into my Lana Del Rey mode, whom I love <3 Perfect summer accessory , and a perfect end to my post. See you in my next one.

Flower crown/ headband : £4 ( bit dear, especially for Primark but I couldn't resist)
