Okay, so I was going to film a haul this evening but there's nowhere with good enough lighting in my house, so I've decided to write the haul instead. It'll probably work fine.
I went to Norwich (my favourite city) with my boyfriend, although he sees it as being dragged around endless shops by an alien that's replaced his girlfriend.
Anyway, we made our way to new look, as per usual, and I saw a beautiful maxi dress. I'd actually had my eye on it for a while after my friend had pointed it out and tried it on a while ago. I'd secretly loved it, but I didn't want to get it at the time because my friend may have bought it, and I'd hate her to think that I'm copying her. But she didn't buy it, so it's all good! As afore menioned, it's a maxi dress, strapless, with two slits up the sides. The slits reach my knees, which is a nice alternative to the normal maxi dresses, so they're not too revealing and give quite a sophisticated edge. It is quite a tight fit around the bust area, I'm a size 8, but I have size 32E breasticles. Also, it reaches the floor when I wear it, I'm 5'4" so I'm guessing the model on the website is taller than little old me...

So, still in new look, which was clearly the shop of choice...
I saw some gorgeous aztec print earrings from, literally, across the shop. They stood out to me straight away. They're super super cute and are so on trend currently. My boyfriend, being the saint that he is, bought them for me.. How sweet! I wore them to work yesterday (Sunday 13th) and I got so many comments about my earrings, just people asking where I bought them and saying how nice they were. They're also really affordable and I can tell I'm going to get loads of use out of them this summer!

Finally I made my way to topshop. I'm totally in love with topshop. If only everything in there was priced like new look...
By the time I'd split the bill for lunch and paid for the dress and earrings, I didn't have very much money left. BUT! I'd forgotten that my little brother had bought me a topshop gift card for Christmas, the little sweetheart! So, I found my second pair of earrings of the day, after spending quite a long time pointing things out to my boyfriend that I liked...
They're really simple and plain, but they're also so... Chic! They're possibly my favourite pair of earrings now. They are so on trend that I want to cry. All I need with these is a festival and some denim shorts and I am good to go!
I'm not usually one for crosses and I often liken crucifix bearers to Ozzy Osbourne (as long as I'm not insulting their religion, of course), but I'm so in love with these.

Well, that's all I bought on my merry trip to Norwich.
I hope you've enjoyed my ramblings and maybe you'll buy something...
