They see me Haulin', they Hatin'...

The problem with being a fashion blogger is that it gives me an excuse to shop more than usual. Not content with 2 wardrobes full of clothes along with plastic bags piled on top of them I'm always on the hunt for my next fashion fix. With so many fashionable bargains to be had on the British High Street hauls become a regular occurrence, especially in Primark where I often pop in for a couple of bits and emerge with a bag full of pieces that I couldn't resist. I'm tempted to slap myself with a spending ban but I know it will only last about a week as the lure of the shops prove too strong, especially when I see some covetable pieces on blogs which make me want to reach for the purse and part with my well earned cash. Today I did my typical popping into Primark routine and came out with some purse friendly delights below...

If you've read my blog or tweets before you'll know that I'm mad about tartan! There's just something about it and when I saw this cute little dress (£15) it was love at first sight. It will look perfect with either knee high socks or tights with cut-out ankle boots

Chunky knits are a bitter British winter essential and I love this lilac/dove grey shade which will look fab with anything in Autumn/Winters blush pink 'it' shade. (£8)

I imagine this paisley bolero jacket can be thrown over something simple and instantly make it look smart and pulled together so it will be perfect for work

I also bought some tartan trousers which I will do a post featuring soon so watch this space
