Bristol Haul!


Today I took a little trip to Bristol and did a nice bit of shopping whilst I was there, I'm flying of to Majorca on Tuesday so I needed to get some last minute items, here is what I got. 

Primark


The first item I got in primark was this summer dress, it was in the sale for £5 which I thought was a very good price for this, it has a stripe/floral print, the material is a little bit see through so you might need to wear a top underneath and on the back it has an open V shape with 3 bows going across it.


I picked up this beach towel for £5 which is an okay price, I just needed to bring one in my suitcase.


Next I got this floral print cropped T-Shirt for £5 which I really like which would look nice with a pair of shorts. It's a good fit and is true to its size.


The last item I got were these cute smurf pyjamas for £8, I have a really bad PJ obsession and whenever I go to primark there's a 90% chance I'll be walking out with some. These are really cool to wear and a good fit.

River Island


I'm not really a sunglasses person but I saw these and had to get them, they have a really nice fit and are the only pair I've had that actually suit my face, they were £10


These shoes were originally bought for my sister but they were too small for her so I said I'd have them, I don't normally wear these type of shoes because I'm quite girly but I thought they might be good for my street dance lessons at college or something. They were in the sale for £7 which I think is a bargain. 

New Look


Next I got this Aztec print dress for £14.99 in New look which I love, it's a really soft thin material which would be good to wear on nice summer days. 

Topshop


The last shop I went into was Topshop which is my favourite shop, I bought these denim look shorts which were £10 I bought them to wear over my bikini when I'm on holiday but they also be good to exercise in or just to chill out in.


The last item (and my favourite item) of the day is this daisy print dress for £32 I was about unsure about getting this as it was a bit pricey but its such a pretty dress I couldn't help myself, it fits perfect and the material feels really nice, it's actually not printed but instead the flowers I stitched into the material. I'll definitely be wearing it a lot!

As always, thanks for reading :)

An English Summer Day

The weather in England at the moment is gorgeous! We're a couple of days into what's meant to be a two week heat wave, as I'm jetting off to Majorca next week, I've been using the time wisely and topping up my tan.

As my college has finished for the summer I haven't seen my friends all together for a while, so we decided to spend the day together playing mini golf and enjoying the sun.
 
The golf course in Bath is lovely, it has fountains, streams and ponds and it's also pretty cheap as well! 


Now, I'm normally completely terrible when it comes to golf, come to think of it I'm normally terrible at most sports but halfway through the course today I was in 1st place. I think I opened my mouth too soon as from then on it went downhill, when you play mini golf you are aloud to hit the ball 9 times before admitting defeat and I unfortunately had to admit defeat four holes in a row and I didn't do much better with the remaining 5 (I blame it on the heat) 

After tallying up our scores I had unfortunately moved down to last place with a shocking score of 91 compared to my fellow team mates 70, 72 and 75 points. Oh well maybe next time ay?

All in all it was a fun afternoon and I would recommend visiting the golf course if you happen to be in Bath at any point.

That evening we also went to get some food in Giraffe. I really fancied a cocktail but they were rather expensive and I'm on 'financial lockdown' as my friend would say, as I need all my money for Majorca. I ordered the 'Rodeo Chicken burger' which was good but after eating in Gourmet Burger Kitchen which is just opposite Giraffe it definitely wasn't up to their standard and GBK is a lot cheaper too, so I'd recommend going there instead. 

Thankyou for reading, this blog entry was mainly a memory for me to read back and remember but  I hope I may have helped any of you planning on visiting my hometown of Bath anytime soon.
