HAUL | BOXING DAY SALES

Aside the 25th of December, my second favourite holiday is the 26th because it's SHOPPING DAY! This year though, I tried as much as possible to limit my purchase because I have so many things planned for 2017 that I need to save up for. So I hit a few stores online only, of course. Ain't nobody got time for massive queues and craziness at the stores. The first place I always visit every 26th is Zara because they always have the best things on sale, plus it's one of my favourite stores. This year was however a bit disappointing. Not as many exciting things on sale as there was last year or the year before. You can do better Zara! Only kidding...sort of.... I'm only saying that because there was a coat that I was eyeing for months that I was really hoping would be on sale but it wasn't. It was still full freaking price! Damn you Zara!

I did also get some good stuff from the likes of HnM, Newlook, Debenhams, ASOS and PLT. Got a range of items really, from clothes to underwear, to sneakers, sunglasses, gym wear, accessories etc. I know it's not summer but I love buying sunglasses, at least these pairs anyway and that's because I love, love, love the shades by Quay. They're so gorge! I'm really contemplating about getting the High Key ones which is a collaboration with Desi Pekins. I feel they're an absolute MUST! 

I hope you guys had a fantastic break. Most of us should be back to the grind now. If you're still on a break.....lucky you! I hate you! Work isn't that bad at the moment but I still wish I was at home with my feet up or in the sun, at the beach, cocktail in hand, with my feet up. 

Manage to find any good deals in the sales?

If you haven't seen my previous post then Happy New Year to you and you can check out the post here. It's my Not-So-New Year Resolution + 2016 Re-cap. It's pretty good if I may say so myself 😝.

And you can't be a blogger and start a new year without having a planner/journal. I got this from my local stationery shop, Rayan. It's by Collins and I think I got it for about £7.99. Absolutely in love with this. It's very small and light (compared to the Me & My Big Ideas Planner I used last year) so I can carry it around everywhere I go.
