Haul: 24th March 2014

March has been a crazy spending spree for me. And while I've enjoyed it, my bank account is crying out for mercy. So, if I spend any more money, you all have permission to shout at me in the comments!

Today, I was feeling a little stir crazy so I took a trip into town for a few hours, and my bank card got a serous workout - in only two shops: Primark and Superdrug


Primark have really been on it recently with their clothes and jewellery. I didn't actually get much, but saw loads that I wanted to get, and I'm sure I will (especially their summer stuff for my holiday in June!)
However, I did get a couple of t-shirts and a pair of shoes:


Captain America is my favourite superhero, and there's so much Marvel in there at the moment. I'd already been told that this top existed, but the minute I saw it, I knew I needed to have it. I'm glad I decided to try it on though, the size I normally would have bought was MASSIVE on the shoulders and I had to buy a size down (yay!), though that could just be because I have weirdly rounded shoulders. I will ALWAYS suggest trying on in Primark (except in Manchester or London Oxford Road. Just avod the changing rooms there, at all costs!)
The picture does this plain black cotton top no justice. It's really lovely, could be dressed up or down, and is really flattering. They do it in different colours and they're all lovely, but I went in specifically for a black top like this, so I bought the black one.
I can't afford Vans, they're waaaayyyyy too expensive, but I've wanted some for so long now. And my feet were hurting in my boots, so I jumped at the chance for these cheap ones. If I find I like them, I MIGHT save up and splurge on some real ones, but for now they're good enough for some comfy non-boot shoes. 


I am literally a slave to Superdrug. I only went in for a primer and some hair dye, and ended up spending a lot more than intended. 
I've heard a lot of good things about the Rimmel London Fix & Perfect Pro Primer, and I'm running low on all my fovourites, so I thought I'd try this one. I'll give it a go and have a review up in a few weeks. 
There was an offer on Rimmel so I thought I'd try this shade of Salon Pro with Lycra nail polish. I got the shade you had me at hello, which is a coral pink with slight flecks of glitter, a perfect summer shade! 
Barry M are really impressing me recently. I bought two of the new aquarium shades, the first being this gold/green/blue holographic shade, which is called Arabian
The second is Pacific, which is a teal/blue holographic shade. I am literally so excited to try these, they look amazing in the bottles, and I hope they don't disappoint on the nails.
I hate needing to get two hair dyes, but I have just got so much hair that I don't really have a choice. I really love the Clairol Nice and Easy hair dyes, they just work so well on my hair. I'm trying a shade I've never tried before because I want lighter hair for the summer. I bought two of shade 6W (formerly 116B) Natural Light Caramel Brown. Fingers crossed it works! 
Finally, I bought the V05 Smoothly Does It shampoo and conditioner. For every day use, I use really cheap Aldi shampoo and conditioner, but I really like treating my hair sometimes to a better quality shampoo and conditioner. I already use the heat defense balm, and it works wonders, so I thought I'd give these a go.
