Goodbye January and Hello February Challenge!

Well January is over, it seems to have flown by! We've had my nieces 1st birthday this weekend, i got her some clothes from Zara, how cute is their kids range?! I've been buying quite alot this month and today saw another mini haul.
I got myself this tea dress from Primark, its so cute on, i don't like the belt it came with so will be charity shopping that and wearing it without or with something a bit more funky.
Cute charm bracelet, also from Primark
Neon pink tee for layering, from Marks and Spencer, i really like the Limited Collection stuff.
I also got 2 of the lip crayons from Barry M. I got the orange and the bright pink one. I was skeptical but they are really lovely and wearable. Heres me modelling the Orange, i'm sorry for the roughness, i haven't done anything with my hair and its a total mess!

Anyways i have decided that February is my time to have a little break from spending. I'm going to cut down, preferably not buying anything clotheswise. I'm not going to have an all out ban as i know i won't stick to it but i am going to try and be good. I'm also listing all the things on ebay that have been sat around for ages waiting to go on and tidying my wardrobe properly.
I do have some parcels to come(see a couple of posts down) and also i won a leather jacket on ebay last night for £2.20, lets hope its not too hideous! I randomly bid on it because i saw its price.
Happy Sunday everyone! x

  7. What are you talking about, you look gorgeous! The orange looks really good on you. I love the dress, does it have shoulder pads? If so then it's the same as my pink and black floral one! Mine came with that belt too.

  14. Love that dress, agree about the belt though.
    And congrats on the bargain leather!! Can't wait to see it.

    Good luck on the spending spree, I've been trying hard, but my head keeps reasoning that Feb is a short month so money won't be as tight...hmmm
