Superdry Wishlist

Evening All

Lately I've been finding myself really loving a brand and loads of there pieces so I thought over the next few weeks I'd share a few of the brands I'm loving at the moment. 

I'm currently finding myself constantly eyeing up Superdry! I've been loving a zip up hoody lately as it's so easy to wear for this hit and miss weather. I also seem to have been preferring a laid back style lately. I love skinny jeans, trainers and a hoody.

I love Superdry for it's amazing hoodies, casual tees and cute shorts. I was also surprised to see so many pretty dresses and some amazing make up when I was browsing the other day so I thought I'd share some of my latest lusts with you.

The hoodies retail for £49.99 and I absolutely love this iced purple colour! I love the fit of these!

This top retails for £27.99 and I love the slouchy fit of it. I really want this for summer to pair with my boyfriend cut shorts.

I'm literally in love with this top. Amazing colour, lace sleeves and a sheer back! It's so pretty, I need it. 

Another pretty top! I love the detail at the top and it has a open back. I love tops like this for the summer and this would be perfect for my holiday especially in the evenings.

I'm eyeing up this for summer. It's so simple but the cut looks so flattering. I really want more white for summer!

I really want more thin jumpers for spring/summer for when the evenings get cooler. I love simple stripes and the stars on this one!

Another thin jumper. I love the colour on this one and think the fit of these our really flattering. Perfect for hiding any post bbq bulge!

I really want some shorts in this style. I love the detail of the pocket colour matching the piping around the pockets. They come in a variety of different colours and on the model they cover the bum cheek. fingers crossed they'd actually cover my bum. Shorts that show the cheek aren't for me!

The colour of this skirt immediately drew me in. How amazing is it for summer. Plus I love anything lace!!

I love the skirt and blazer in this photo! Again the skirt has lace detail and I love it in white. The blazer is cut to nip in at the waist is something I really need.

Amazing make up wasn't something I expected to see in superdry. The colours in it are amazing and it's so pretty. I don't think I could never bear to use it.

The lipsticks drew me in straight away. I loved the amazing pigmented colour when I swatched them in store. Especially the coral shade called Flamingo. The packaging is super cute too!

Are you a superdry fan? I can't help but love it lately!

Cabot Circus

Morning!

I had an absolutely amazing week off and did so much more than I thought i would. All those little things I planned on doing like sorting out my shoes, books etc have not happened at all!
Never mind eh.......I did go shopping with my mum to Cabot Circus one day and I had a bit of a haul at Primark!

I've been craving a holiday for years....the last time I went was a good 4/5 years ago so I'm really looking forward to some genuine sun. I'm planning on a trip to Thailand in November so need some new summer clothes and also have Glastonbury coming up. I don't expect to be keeping the clothes after they've served me at a festival and backpacking so I went straight for Primark, cheap and cheerful!

I picked up some shorts to start with, they go with everything and are easy to wear. The ones above were about £3.50 i think, so a really good price.
I have a pair of denim shorts already but another pair are always handy. These are a boyfriend cut with a bit of fraying detail and are a bit longer than normal so should deal with every situation.





No festival goer worth their tent will be there without some accessories....I've picked up this hat and the flower headbands/crown which I'll be featuring in an upcoming post as they're just too good for the money!





I know for certain that aside from shorts; dresses will be my go to whilst travelling, and so I've picked up a few cotton ones to be worn as cover ups.



The one above will be perfect for the beach and the dresses below are exactly the same just orange and white in colour (and a bargain £5 each!)

 



I love this kind of detail on summer clothes (broderie anglaise isn't it??!) its so lightweight and breathable.

That was it for my trip to Primark and I ended up buying a bikini in Next. The weather was AWFUL at the time and cold and rainy, so it felt really weird to be buying such a summery item but it was too good to miss and they had my size in stock....it was a sign!







I do love stripy things and the pink gives it an updated twist. Hopefully it will look good when I'm super pasty and when I've got a bit of a tan going!

Lastly I went to New Look and was obviously having a shorts oriented day...I couldn't resist picking up these two. The black and white patterned pair could be worn during the day with a floaty top, on the beach or out in the evenings for casual meet ups. The grey ones match the bikini perfectly! They were made for each other with the pink accents.

The bikini retails at £10 for the top and £6 for the bottoms.
The shorts were £10-12 each.

I had a lush day browsing with my mum and could have spent so much more! We both spent a good while in Aldo checking out the bags and shoes; there was so much we wanted we had to go and do a lap of the centre before returning! Why don't we have one of those in Cardiff?? They'd make a fortune!

What do you think of my purchases? Are you buying similar items for your holidays?

What's your number one item you'll be stocking up on this summer?


Do you have any travel tips for Thailand?

I cannot wait to go and experience a totally different country, especially those idyllic beaches from paradise!

H and M haul

After popping into H and M to get this scarf, I was drawn to some gorgeous summery skirts so last weekend I had to pop and get them.

I love them, they are a cute tulip shape, a light material and come with a little belt, all for 7.99, perfect for summer. I think I'll be going back to get more colours.

I got it in this gorgeous bright pink coral colour. One thing I will say if you a lady with hips/bum like me you'll probably need to go up a size

Next I picked up this funky pattern one. They also have this pattern in black and white and the skirt in plain cobalt blue and black. I think these will be great for summer days and nights on holiday. Link (I've linked what I can as if I see something on someone's blog I like to know where to get it)

Next this pale denim skater dress caught my eye. I don't own a denim dress and couldn't resit this. It's so flattering with the pulled in waist. It's a very cleavage dress though. I can't find this one online but it's still in store and was only 14.99.

Who can resist a cute skater dress? I find this cut so flattering. Love the little floral pattern. I think I'll be picking up lots more in this style. I love being able to throw these on with leggings for work. Only 12.99 link

And finally I picked up this striped dress. It has an exposed zip at the back and is cinched in at the waist. It's loose fitting so will be comfy for those hot days. Again only 14.99 link. This is definitely one to try on as off the hanger it doesn't look that great.

The only other thing I picked up was a plain white vest. I struggle to find a good white vest that isn't see through so if you have any suggestions that would be great.

What do you think of these buys? Have you been in H and M much lately? I'm loving there summer collection.

Love M
