Primark Bargain!

Yesterday I achieved something I never thought possible. Pray tell I hear you say... I walked into Primark and came out only spending £2! For me that is a big deal! Normally I go loca, this time I didn't even grab a basket. Just walked straight in and wondered with no purpose, yeah, it was a casual affair.

I bought these:

I was aimlessly walking around on the phone to le boyfran (who was falling asleep) complaining about my disastrous business meeting when I saw them twinkling beneath an awfully bright light, a sign above reading 'SALE £2!' Is this real life..or is this just fantasy? I wondered as I edged closer.. NO 'twas real! ERMAGERD! "Shut the F up for a second" I said to my boyfriend who had unbeknown to me fallen asleep -_- They had to be mine. But horror! All i could see were size 7 and 8 hangers! FOR WHYYY?! Not giving up I decided to look at the size inside the actual shoes and I found my size! Why do these hangers have to give me false sorrow?!


They are so pretty and for £2 down from £8 a total bargain! I mean where the hell can you pick up shoes in perfect condition for TWO DOWLLA?! These shoes are perfect for giving your everyday work wear a bit of bling! The front portion of the shoe is laden with studs and the rest a soft black suede like material. The different sizes and colour of studs make the shoes twinkle differently in the light. I like that, I like that alot.  My only concern was how rounded the toe was. I have researched into the alignment of my toes and have found out I have egyptian feet. Looky here at the pic..
*Blog question of the day: How are your toes aligned? Joke. 
My mums side of the family all have Greek feet. I always wondered whether that was a Filipino thing? Probably not as I have seen a lot of Greek feets around London Town. No I do not like feet, nor am I a feet stalker. But it's summer and there's a lot of feet out, gosh, chill. With my feet I always find shoes with a slightly enlongated point the most comfortable and flattering. However despite the roundness of these shoes they seem comfortable for the most part. And you know for £2 if they don't work out for me, I can always give them to someone else, after a good airing of course! We don't share the sweat here people.

I also picked up this face powder from Rimmel in Superdrug (thought I could just slide this in here). Yes it is light, however it is one of those transparent finishes. I really wanted the Soap & Glory 'One Heck of a Blot' but it was sold out and I feel that was because It was hyped up by everyone and their mother. But for £3.99 I think this is more suited to my budget anyway (ooo attidude).

I surprised myself at how much I could talk about a shoe. Was there need for this? Probably not. Did I enjoy it? Yes.
