Collective Shopping Haul | Primark, Lush and Easons

Sunday, 25 August 2013
Hey guys! 

The other day I went shopping to Dublin with my friend. I bought a nice amount of stuff so I thought I would share it with you. 

Firstly, I went to Easons because they had a Summer reading offer on and I wanted to see if they had The Fault in Our Stars by John Green. I saw that John Green's books had the Summer reading offer which was buy three books get the cheapest free. I bought The Fault in Our Stars, Looking for Alaska and An Abundance of Katherines. I've already finished reading The Fault in Our Stars which is such an amazing book! I recommend that if you haven't read it yet, go read it! I'm halfway through reading Looking for Alaska and it is amazing already.

After Easons, we went to Primark. In Ireland, we call it Penney's but in the UK it's called Primark. I didn't really see a lot of things that I liked in Primark. There were a few things but they weren't in my size. I ended up buying a makeup bag, a nail varnish, a necklace, a t-shirt and a crop top. 



The moment I saw this makeup bag, I thought it was adorable. I just love the little studded ears and the red bow. I was a bit afraid that all of the makeup that I like to wear daily and some extra wouldn't all fit in but it can fit everything I wanted it too and more! I'm really happy with it and to make it even better, it was only four euro. What a bargain!


I have a lot of nail polishes but I actually didn't own a black one. I really this brand too because even though it is cheap, the nail varnish stays on for ages and doesn't chip much. The price has gone up slightly from 2.49 to 2.75 I'm not too sure what the "Rubber Effect" is yet though. Check out my blogpost on nail varnishes here! 



I also bought this really cute necklace. Mustaches are like a big trend now and I think this is so cute. It will look really nice with a collar shirt and it goes with everything because it's black. This cost 3 euro.


I really like this little crop top that I bought. It has a two chains that go along the neckline and it is lace at the front. The only thing is that it is quite see through at the front. It was seven euro.


I saw this little orange t-shirt as soon as I walked in the door as it was on a rack that said "One Euro". I love bargains so I went straight for that rack. This t-shirt was three euro reduced to one euro. I just couldn't pass it and you can never have enough t-shirts.

After Primark, I really wanted to go to Lush. I had never been in any of their stores before and I had always heard people raving about how amazing their stuff was. There are none of these stores near where I live so I couldn't not go in. I restrained myself from buying the whole shop and only bought two things. 


First I picked out this little guy. I think he is adorable and he smells amazing! He's a little bath bomb. He's called "Ickle Baby Bot". I can't wait to use him! It was 2.75.


 I then got this bath bomb. This one is bigger than the robot. It's called "Space Girl". It's shaped like a planet or something. I really love the smell of this one as it's quite strong. This one has little red glitters in it that go into the water and float around. This one was also 2.75.

I hope you guys liked seeing what I bought!
