...almost everything!
If you know me you will know that I am a lover of Primark, however I do think there is a way to go about shopping in there. It is easy to get caught up in the 'this is only a tenner' mentality and end up walking out with a body con dress that you are never going to wear. (Yep I am talking from experience)
This is my tip to a successful Primark shop, go in there with what you want in mind. You are almost certain to find a good dupe that you will actually wear, that is a true bargain.
The black boots are actually from last year, to say I have worn them to death is an understatement. They have definitely become my go to shoes, and so far (touch wood) have been excellent quality especially as they only set me back about £15. I picked up the coat in the sale, down to £20. Actually I had my eye on it when it was first in but didn't really need it, so when I saw it had gone down in price I didn't want to be rude and not give it a home.
Everyone knows that Primark denim is never going to be as good as your Topshop or River Island. But these slim fit boyfriend jeans are pretty comfy and as someone who is allowed to wear jeans to work a cheap alternative for everyday wear. The grey knitted jumper is new stock, I'm a big fan of the three quarter length sleeves, especially when you have a beautiful bracelet you want to show off.
Here is the sneakily little non Primark part, but I really wanted to share my new Daisy Jewellery bracelet. I picked this one up in the sale, it is a Semi-Precious Sacral Chakra Bracelet: Sexuality. Physical Grace. Pleasure.
Let me know what you think of this outfit, are you a Primark lover?
Those boots are amazing - I really need to get myself a new pair of ankle boots! Mine really need to go in the bin but I haven't found a replacement yet - I never thought to look in Primark! That bracelet is SO beautiful.

Thanks Jodie, the boots literally go with everything! They have been my saviour - comfy heeled boots are not easy to find :) XX
DeleteThe coat is so pretty! I always love Primark coats, you get quite a bit of wear out of them considering the price is so low. That bracelet is so cute too!

Thanks for following me Becky really appreciate that! I always worry about investing in a really colourful coat because I wonder how much wear I will get out of it, but for £20 it doesn't really matter too much!! :) XX
DeleteFirst of all I am loving the new look of your blog!
ReplyDeleteI do love a primark shop and I guess even though I wish there was one in my town, it's kind of a good thing as I do go a bit "primark happy" when I do go - guilty lol! I too got some ankle boots from there in November and they have been morealess my everyday staple so far; really do need to add them in my next fav post. Great photography love the pictures and love the bracelet!
Love Hannah xx

DeleteI have a love hate relationship with Primark, sometimes you can go in and there be nothing at all but I recently went in and found a few pieces that really are going to last me a while. I also got some stretchy denim jeggings that are perfect for work (I too can wear what I want) so it just makes work wear much easier! You look gorgeous ❤️
