My Debit Card Hates Me

As the title suggests I've went a on a bit of a shopping spree recently. I thought I'd let you see what I've bought.

It's buy two get one free in Boots at the minute so when I went in to get the micellar cleansing water I made the most of this deal and got two of them and then got the eye makeup remover free. I also needed to get some blistex and cotton pads as the ones I have at the minute are just about finished and the cotton pads were buy one get one half price. Boots always do great deals and I end up spending a fortune!

I love this time of year when next year's diaries hit the shops. I always buy my diary from Paperchase and spend ages picking out one. This year was no diffferent and I had finally picked out one after about 20 minutes looking at every one of them. I was just about to go and pay when I spotted this little beauty, normally I'm not a flowery kind of gal but the inside of it completely sold it to me. Its so cute. The diary was £14. 

Isn't it pretty!

Also I spotted some washi tape when I was in the shop and got it as I've been looking for some for a while. This cost £4.50.

I can never leave Paperchase without buying something, they have the cutest stationary and other wee bits and bobs.

I think every blogger is taking about Benefit's Christmas gifts and I treated myself to this little beauty. I had went to the benefit counter with my friend as she needed a new mascara and had no intention of buying anything and got so excited when I seen this. 

I love dandelion and I'm nearly out of my hoola bronzer so thought this was a great idea. The bellabamba is amazing and I can't wait to try them all out. This is such a bargain at £29.50 as each of these to buy separately is £23.50.

Hotel Chocolat always has to be visited when I'm in Belfast. It has the best chocolate and they always have little samples for you to try. I had seen on Instagram that they had brought out chocolate fudge and then when I called into the shop they were sampling it and it tasted amazing so needed to get some in my life. Also their chocolate solids are so good with a cup of tea so got the Tiddly Reindeer. They are £5.50 and the Chocolate Fudge is £3.75.

This coat took me by surprise as I had said to myself that this year I wasn't buying a new coat and wasn't on the look out for one. When I spotted this I fell in love with it straight away and got it as it's such a good buy. It will go with everything and it will be lovely over the colder months. Its currently on sale in New Look from £49.99 down to £37. 

I have been lusting over this scarf for absolutely ages so when payday came I knew I had to get it. I have such a soft spot for tartan and this matches up so nicely with my coat. This lovely scarf is a great bargain at £9.99. 

This jumper has caught my eye on a few occasions and thought it would be lovely teamed with a pair of skinnies and a checked shirt underneath. It's lovely and soft and not that itchy wool which I just can't deal with at all. It's in New Look for £22.99.

Lastly is this bargain. I had originally bought this in River Island round February and ended up returning it because I couldn't justify spending £45 on it. I tried it on so many times and send photos of it with numerous outfits to different people but in the end I just didn't think I'd get the wear out of it for that price. That all changed when it went on sale for £25! I immediately needed it back in my life, I went online and they only had a 16 left and I needed a 12, talk about gutted. My friends went on the hunt but to no avail so I hit trusty eBay thinking I'd never find it and if I did it wouldn't be such a bargain anymore. Then I seen one in my size and the highest bid was £12 so I immediately bid £15 in the hope no one would outbid me in the 3 days left on the sale. I was in luck and there was no more bids so in the end I got it for £20 including shipping which was fantastic. I'm so glad I've got it now and have wore it loads already. There's so many colours in it it literally goes with everything. I love the print and it's a good thick blazer so it's nice and warm

So there you have it for my shopping splurge. I'm now away to sit in my blazer and try out my benefit blushers while eating my chocolate.
