Hey Sweeties,
A couple of weeks ago I was incredibly lucky to win (via Twitter) two tickets to the Clothes Show and a 12-piece collection of makeup brushes, all courtesy of Nanshy. The brushes I will reveal to you in another post very soon but for now, I thought I would show you some of the things I picked up from the show because who doesn’t love a haul post?
What I love about the Clothes Show is while you might blow a bit of a hole in your purse, you’ll get a lot for your money as everything is either just really cheap or has been discounted for the show. None of the below cost me more than £10 each!
This dress cost me £5 & I really like it -can’t go wrong with stripes!
My favourite find! This dress is from a brand called, Fearless Illustration
Unfortunately this dress is a little small but I still love the flamingo print
I love this jumper! I bought another one in navy for Ian so on Christmas Day we have matching his ‘n hers jumpers!
I did so well to not pick up more makeup as recently I feel I have bought enough to not need more unless I really really need it. That being said, you can’t turn down a bargain when you see one! A couple of years ago when I went to the Clothes Show, Barry M were offering goody bags for £10 which included a makeup bag, a few polishes and a couple of their other products and they were doing the same again. While I am not as much of a fan of Barry M as I was back then, I still enjoy their products, particularly their polishes and I was not let down with this year’s goody bag.
Contents: Kohl pencil in silver; lip gloss in no.4; Glossy Tube super shiny lip gloss in no.6; liquid eyeliner in turquoise; eyeshadow in no.9 & 4. Polishes in: Forest 434; Rockstar 519; Jingle Bells 443; Paprika 450; Miami 523; Red Black 520.
I didn’t buy the above dress from the Clothes Show but it’s still new and I wore it to the show so I thought I would still add it into this post. It’s from an online brand called Pretty Little Thing and is from the Lucy Mecklenburgh collection; it’ll be such a staple over winter!
The Clothes Show is such a worth while day out, while I don’t feel it necessary to go every year, every couple of years I think is fine. But it’s definitely all about the shopping! While the main arena show is always brilliant and an integral part of the day, all the other time is spent shopping so go prepared to shop and with a fairly generous budget!
Did any of you guys go this year?
Until next time x
The stripy dress is gorgeous and such a bargain
