H&M trend - Fringing

Hello again!

So I recently went into H&M with my gran, which really challenged my opinion on the shop. In Edinburgh, on Princes Street there at two H&M stores. The smaller of the two was always cluttered, dirty and full of old, cheap looking stock while the larger one was mostly full of basic items, e.g. plain white vest tops. So after being disappointed with the actual stores I had access to I tried the website which was much better, I ordered boots but they took 2 months to come and so that turned out a waste of time also.
Recently both H&M have been renovated and look absolutely brilliant so after a look with my gran I bought a gorgeous new back (see below).

I have been looking everywhere for a decent sized fringe back but even for smaller clutch bags Topshop and stores like, were charging £40 and over! For an everyday bag I wasn't prepared to pay that and gave up. However, I saw the one below while looking in the store and couldn't resist. It's something different and the store refers to it as a bucket bag. I currently have a rectangle shaped bag which I love but is bulky for everyday whereas this one is easy to carry when I'm on and off buses at peak times. It's black and gold, two colours which make the bag look more expensive and goes with pretty much every outfit. The fringing is my favourite part though as it's long and covers the majority of the bag making it quite a statement piece. In winter, at uni, it's difficult to have outfits that are interesting everyday and so this accessory does that and is big enough to carry all my stuff!
The bag is very sturdy, has a wrist strap and another for going over your shoulder which I love on bags as I tend to alternate depending on how heavy it is. It cost me £29.99, a very good price considering I was looking for something like this and it's so well made.
After this great experience, I will definitely be using H&M more and cannot wait to go look after payday!

Purchases from this week - eBay and H&M

Hey guys! So after an incredibly difficult few months I have finally completed second year at uni and I finally have some time to myself! I will now be posting a lot more so keep an eye out!

This post is just about 3 items I have purchased that arrived at the beginning of the week. The first of which is eyebrow pencils which I buy off eBay because I cannot find them elsewhere. They are Calvin Klein eyebrow pencil in #203 'red head' and after being given one on my birthday I've never went back. They only cost £3.99 so I buy 3 each time just in case they go out of stock for a while. These tend to last me 2/3 months which is great considering I use them everyday and sharpen them every 2nd use. The colour is perfect, dark enough to stand out but still fit with red hair. It's almost tinted purple which you can see when you apply it which really looks great. They glide on well, are easy to fix if need be (go round with an angled brush and concealer) so considering the quality, these are a steal and I'd highly recommend it to every redhead! The link is below and you can also see how it looks both below and on in my other posts.

Calvin Klein Eyebrow Pencil, #203 Red Head - http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/300892237661?var=600104670992&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649

I also had two items delivered from H&M, they took two months to come as the sports bra wasn't in stock yet so I chose to just wait for both as I didn't need either straight away. The items were both cheap (prices under photos) and I also found a 10% off code only as well as a £5 off voucher so saved a total of £9 which was brilliant. I literally just typed H&M vouchers into Google and found them so always have a look! 

The sports bra is amazing quality and comfy although I haven't worn it to the gym as of yet so still to see how supportive it actually is. It is classed as low support though so would most likely not be suitable for those with a larger chest. All in all though, considering it's also very pretty, £12.99 (original price BEFORE discount) is a great price. 

Sports Bra Low Support - £12.99

The second item was a simple triangle soft cup bra which cost (without vouchers) £3.00. The actual cups were a lot smaller than I had anticipated although it looks much better as I'm small chested so it's flattering as opposed to looking too big! I love these bras as they are so comfy for everyday and really girly so a must have for every female!

Soft Cup Bra - £3.99

So that's what I got in the post this week, I will be doing a post tomorrow on what I wore to a night out on Monday so keep a look out!
