Clothing Haul

Friday, 5 December 2014

Hey Honeybees!

I've bought a few items of clothing from different places recently so I thought I'd do a collective haul.

I'll start with a dress I bought from Asos Curve and some boots I got from Primark.

Asos Curve £25

This Asos Curve Swing Dress with tartan sleeves has been on my wish list for a while. I have a bit of a thing for tartan at the moment and I think it goes really well with the navy blue. I paid £25 for this dress.

I'm also wearing a pair of black ankle boots from Primark. They have a chunky silver chain on the back that jingle when you walk, it sounds like Santa's sleigh. I paid £18 for these boots, which is kind of steep for Primark but I think they're worth it.

Primark £18

My next Outfit is from Simply Be, a shirt, skirt and pair of boots.

Here I'm wearing a Pull on Velour Skater Skirt in the colour wine. I paid £14 for this skirt which is a really lovely material.

On my top half I'm wearing a foil print boxy shirt that I paid £30 for. It has a gold print on sheer black material, I wear a little black vest top underneath.

On my feet I'm wearing Catwalk collection chain ankle boots from Simply Be. These are similar to my Primark boots except these are patent and have a line across the toes and some elastic near the buckle. I paid £35 for these ones and they come in different fits for the larger lady.

Simply Be £35

The last two things I'm going to show you are a coat from Simply Be and a bag from Primark.

The coat I'm wearing From Simply Be is a Jeffrey and Paula swing coat I paid £80 for this, which is expensive but it's such good quality and warm for winter. It has a lovely texture to it to and I love the colour grape.

The bag I'm carrying is from Primark, it's black and white houndstooth. I paid £6 for this little bag.

Primark £6

So, that is everything I got this time. What do you think? let me know in the comments.

Thanks for reading

Merry Christmas xx

OOTD - Wedding

Tuesday, 21 October 2014

Hey Honeybees

If you have seen my last post you'll know I recently attended the wedding of my friend Jenni to Jon. This post is about what I wore on that very special day.

Lets start with my dress It is a Simply be 3D Daisy organza dress. As you can see this skater dress is a lovely fuchsia colour with daisy detail. The back of the dress has a circular open back design. It's usual price is £55 but it's currently in the sale for £33.

Moving on to my accessories, lets start with my shoes. I wore some pale pink high heels from New look They cost me just £19.99.They are quite high, heels which I'm usually not good with but these were easy to walk in.

New Look - £19.99

I also got my Clutch bag from New look. It's plain pink, with white embroidery and a gold lock & shoulder chain. The clutch is a lot bigger than most clutch bags I managed to get loads of things in it. I'm not sure how much the clutch cost as it's no longer on the website but I think it was around the £15.99 mark.

New Look - £15.99

My jewellery came from Primark , I wore a silver chained statement necklace with pale pink, clear and grey stones. This cost £5.

Primark - £5

My earrings are also from Primark they cost just £1. They are pale pink and silver, large studs in a round shape. I actually have them in three colours.

Primark - £1

That is all of my Wedding OOTD. Have you been to a wedding recently, what did you wear? Let me know in the comments.

Thanks for reading Honeybees. xx

Primark & George mini haul

Thursday, 11 September 2014

Hey Honeybees!

If you read my last Primark haul, you'll know that I had a faulty necklace to return. I swapped that necklace and bought another one to, as well as some earrings.

Primark - £5

This is like the statement necklace I had to return as there was a stone missing, but this one is fine and cost £5. As you can see it has pale pink, grey with clear stones on a chunky gunmetal colour chain. I bought this for a wedding I'm going to at the end of the month it will go well with my dress.

Primark - £5

This next necklace is what you would call a bib necklace I think. The chunky chain is gold, the stones are a lovely turquoise colour and it has navy blue rope/thread running through it. I really like this and the colours are perfect for Autumn colours.

Primark - £1

I got another pair of large round studded earrings for £1. This time they are framed with gold, the centre stone is a red/burgundy colour, also perfect for Autumn.

As well as Primark I made a trip to Asda to look at the George range. I didn't find any clothes I liked but I did find a bag and some knickers, that's right knickers. If you don't want to see my knickers then stop reading/looking after the handbag.

George at Asda - £10

How cute is this teal satchel? It has little foxes on! It's quite a large satchel with a pocket at the front as well as a phone pocket and zip pocket inside. This little beauty cost just £10 and I think it's perfect for Autumn. I appear to be addicted to Autumn, it is my favourite season though.

The last things I got are some character knickers which were on offer 3 for £6 or £2.50 each.

George at Asda - 3 for £6

That's right Ladies and Gents whenever you see me out and about I could be wearing one of these awesome pair of undies. From the top left I chose, some with Tom & Jerry on, some that have Grumpy from the seven dwarfs on, a pair of Wonder woman pants, a pair with Minnie Mouse shoes on, a pair with Betty Boop and finally some with Animal on. I love a bright pair of Knick Knacks.

That's all I bought this time what do you guys think? What is your favourite thing that I bought? Let me know in the comments.

Thanks so much for reading this post and for following my blog. Love you Honeybees! xx

OOTD - Boohoo skirt

Tuesday, 9 September 2014

Hey Honeybees!

I have a short outfit of the day for you today. On Sunday I wore a black t-shirt, floral shoes and black footless tights. I've talked about these clothes before on the blog, If you would like more information on those check back at my Previous OOTD

What is this post about then? I hear you ask. Well, it's all about a skirt, a Boohoo skirt.

Boohoo - £12

The skirt I'm wearing is from Boohoo plus and it cost £12. It's a Jenna Large floral skater skirt In the colours black, yellow, turquoise and pale pink. It is a soft, pleated material and it comes with a thin brown belt. All though my belt was way too small for the skirt. I got a size 24 skirt but the belt would fit someone size ten. I love the skirt but I am disappointed about the belt.

There you go, short and sweet as I said, what do you think of the skirt?

Have you ever got something you're disappointed with? Let me know in the comments.

Thanks so much for reading and following. See you all soon. xx

OOTD - Daisies

Saturday, 6 September 2014

Hey Honeybees!

It's time for another OOTD , today I fancied something bright and cheerful, an antidote to the current miserable weather.

The daisy dress I'm wearing is from the Boohoo plus range. The base colour of the dress is black with lots of pretty daisies on top. At the moment this dress is in the Boohoo sale for just £14.

Boohoo Plus - £14

On my little tootsies I am wearing some nude patent ballet flats that I got from Primark for £6. On the label it says they are a wide fit, now I have thin feet (It's the only part of me that is thin) but these are quite tight I'd recommend sizing up.

Primark - £6

My Earrings are from Primark They were just one English pound and I think they are quite classy.

Primark - £1

My necklace is also from Primark It was £3, Its Navy blue and gold chevrons.

Primark - £3

My last bit of jewellery is a chunky Silver t-bar heart bracelet also from Primarni for £2.

Primark - £2

I also wore the black footless asos tights that I've talked about before which were £6 I think.

I'm really loving dresses at the moment, I'm trying to make myself more lady like. What clothes are you enjoying at the moment?

Thanks so much for reading and following you pretty little Honeybees. xx

Primark Mini Haul

Hey Honeybees!

This may be hard for you to believe but I went to Primark. On Sunday I made an unscheduled trip to Primark as Mr Honeybee had something to return. I figured it would be rude to go and not buy anything, so I did. I got some earrings, a necklace (well, I got two but one is broken so that's going back) a bracelet, some false nails and a pair of shoes.

I bought two pairs of large stud earrings, both the same just in different colours. They are a oval shape framed with silver and in the middle is a stone. I got a pair in pale pink and a pair in turquoise, they cost just a pound each.

Primark £1 each

The necklace I picked up is navy blue and gold chevrons on a gold chain. I think it's a bit Aztec and unusual, it cost £3.

Primark - £3

The next thing I got is a chunky silver T-bar Heart bracelet. I bought this because it reminds me of a bracelet I had when I was a teenager. The heart has faux diamonds on, which makes it a bit different.This bracelet cost £2

Primsrk - £2

Moving on from Jewellery, I got some false nails. They have a black base with Daisies on. I actually have a dress they'll match perfectly and for £1 they're worth a try.

Primark - £1

The last thing I bought was a pair of flat ballerina shoes. The shoes are patent ,nude with bows on the front. I love patent shoes I don't know why but they always catch my eye. These cute little numbers cost £6

Primark - £6

There you go, there's all my purchases from this visit. What do you think?

Please leave me a comment telling me what you've bought from Primark recently.

Thanks for reading and welcome to my new Honeybees. xx

OOTD - Zebra

Monday, 1 September 2014

Hey Honeybees!

On Saturday I was heading off for a night out at a hen party so I took the opportunity to wear one of my new dresses.

Asos Curve

I bought this black zebra print skater dress from Asos Curve for £28. It fits really well, the top part is fitted and is sleeveless with buttons down the front. The bottom is pleated and comes to just above the knee. I really love this dress and definitely recommend it. The footless tights are also from Asos curve I have blogged about them already in another post.

Jewellery wise I wore a sparkly necklace from George at Asda, some tear shape silver and turquoise earrings from Sainsburys and a silver bracelet with blue stones from Primark. My ring was a present sent from America.
The shoes I'm wearing are peach with a gold knotted rope on. I think I got these from Dorothy Perkins or New Look a while ago, I can't remember.

What do you think of the dress, do you like clothes with animals on?

Thanks so much for reading and following. xx
