Primark Buys

I made the mistake of going in Primark for the second time in the matter of days, the first time i was very restrained & only left with the Skull watch that i blogged about the other day which actually ended up being faulty.. However my second trip i failed to be restrained & bought a few items....

 (i know, i know, i did a whole blog post about how i agree with Vivienne Westwood about the streets being full of clones & that fast fashion is to blame.... but the fact that i only have very few pounds i think justifies me shopping in Primark & giving in to this so called fast fashion - especially since i can't afford any more of the real deal McQueen skull scarves....)

Firstly - Skull scarves are all over my local Primark, they must have them in about 10-20 different colours, silky & cotton type ones. 
These two i LOVE : 







Turqouise & coral skull print scarf - £3 Primark - BARGAIN... although i predict everyone will be sporting a sull scarf from Primark at these prices! 
Beige & Pink skull print scarf £3 Primark.


 ^These are quite a decent size, probably exactly the same as the real deal McQueen versions & not as flimsy i might add as they're not 100% silk.
The 2 i bought above are cotton material ones as i didn't fancy any of the colours in the silky fabric. They really have got a really wide range of them in at the moment. 
The black & white ones are especially 'classic' i think, but since i already own an original in that colour i thought i'd have some colourful ones! 


Next purchase : a backpack! : (no don't worry, we've not time travelled back to the 1990s)

I can't even remember the last time i wore a backpack, it may have been during my school days which is quite some time ago now.. however now that i am a mother i feel i need to start thinking more practical, and this is clearly the solution. Well the solution of what bag to use when out with the pram at least.. as i have found that pushing the pram & trying to keep a shoulder strap bag on the shoulder proves quite difficult. So this should solve my problems. It's actually quite a substantial size too so i could always fit essential baby bits in as well as my purse / keys / phone instead of taking the changing bag.


Heart printed canvas backpack - £9 Primark

view of the back

Love the heart print


It has a lovely coral colour on the inside & a handy pocket to the front. 


Oh & i couldn't resist this Tshirt, because lets face it - who doesn't want a shirt with French phrases on?! or is that just me.... : 
(technically speaking i've just purchased a tshirt that says Hi! Hi! on it, but somehow with it being in French it makes it slightly cooler...)

£4 Primark

 Now i am going to go hang my head in shame for giving in to Primark & it's lure's of FAST FASHION.....
