I have started a new job this week, so I have been SUPER busy. I feel like I haven’t had time to write anything, much less go to the gym or cook proper dinners or anything really lol. I’m ready to haul my sorry arse to bed by half 8 🙂 But… new job means only one thing. Shopping. Shopping is my cardio.

I have for you today 3 of my favourite things I have bought this week.


Okay, so first thing, well they come as a package for me haha. They are on the right hand side and are a couple of gorgeous skirts I bought from Matalan and are an absolute bargain at £14 each. Both are an A Line style cut above the knee. The brown one is a light camel colour and is made from a poly blend, but it feels super expensive. It’s really thick and comfy so it will be perfect with some tights for winter. The Black one is a grid pattern in a thick crepe material, it is so beautiful and again so comfy. They both have really cute mock pockets which add a bit of detailing and I like that I will be able to wear them the whole year round. I plan on dressing them up for work in winter with tights and heeled ankle boots.

The next item on my shopping list was a cute notebook, so I bought this Key Stitch Notebook from Fox and Star stationary– follow them, thank me later. Starting a new job is stressful and I have so much to learn so this kind of smallish lightweight notebook is perfect for me. It has already been scribbled in and it makes me a lot happier than reading notes of a boring ol’ jotta pad.

The last item I have in there is a lovely lipstick from the Rimmel Kate Moss Lasting Finish Collection this colour is number 35 which is a mauveish pink, it sounds weird but it’s lovely. I would say it’s defo on the cold side of pink rather than a warm pink, in my photo is looks super vibrant- it isn’t it’s actually subtle. Perfect for me for work and it lasts aggessss.

So there you go lovelies, I hope you enjoyed this post. Comment any of your favourite buys at the minute, I never need an excuse to shop 🙂
