Mini haul

The new three storey Topshop opened on Briggate in Leeds weeks ago.. and i went for the first time on Wednesday  I dont seem to go into Leeds that often, i usually shop with my mum so we just go to Harrogate and Briggate on a Saturday is my idea of hell.

I went with my friends Lizzie and Raj (check out their blogs!!!!) to mainly have a Nandos and get some piercings, I got a hoop through my cartilage on my left ear along with my second lobe piercings on both ears, but we just had to look inside the new store.

Even though i have a job and get around 35 pounds a week- it seems to disappear on tiny things and with Christmas coming up i have presents to buy so i tried to not buy a lot.

Saying that i came out with three items, a burgundy red velvet skater skirt, a patterned snood and a nail varnish.
Thought i'd include the bag because i love the geo-style print!

This cost £18 which is a bit pricey for me but compared to the other snoods and scarves in the shop which were £25-£30 it wasn't too bad! i love the print on this and because of the mixture of colours, it really goes with everything. I can also say this is ridiculously cosy and warm..

At £6, this is my first ever Topshop nail polish, i usually go for models own or Barry M. The make-up stand at the new shop was huuuuuuuge and amazing!! Named 'Lead', i love how it has purple and green sheens in the light, i have nothing like this in my collection so i decided to buy it, steering well clear of the lilacs (my favourite nail colour).

Velvet clothing is something people either love or hate, when i saw this skirt its safe to say i LOVE it. I would never pay £28 for a skater skirt, but i really like the deep red colour and velvet texture of this so there was no doubt that i wouldn't be buying it. Its very versatile too, easily dressed up or down so i think i got my moneys worth!
