A SUMMER HAUL!

So I think it's time I make one of those "haul" posts , because I love seeing what other people bought and also I'm excited with the new things I got !

First off , new look was having a massive 3 day only random sale. So I went ahead :') 

I got 3 basic tops that each had their own unique feature .

Each top was on sale for 5.5$



LOVE ROLLED UP SLEEVES!


It opens !!

The black shirt just had some colourful spots that look interesting!

Then I got me some shorts :D 

on sale for 14$

(Not gonna lie they were Men's) ... (HEY! I like the way they look :c ) .. Also I don't think you should be judged on what you want to wear.. I like my shorts baggy and a bit longer than normal girl shorts , I think it's okay :) ?

Moving on 😅... 


on sale for 10$

I filled it up to show how pretty it looks! (comes in white and subtle pink) 
It also has a secret pocket in the back to hide secret stuff *shhh*

AND MY FAVOURITE! 
A neon pink NERD ONESIE! HOLLA.

full price 33$


I know it's summer and heat but honestly I'm all for buying now and waiting till it's colder because how do you say no to something so cute?!

Okay enough new look I say.

Moving on to forever 21 
I got those cute cute boot-ish shoes I guess ?

I know .. Summer... But they're so cute :c 



shoes : 36$

I also got this pretty dress that I already featured in an OOTD Here :)


dress : 22$

Then I went to topshop , I'm not a regular topshop buyer , just because overpriced, but I managed to find some shoes on sale that were lovely ( even not on sale they weren't that badly priced )

on sale for 22$ 


I then entered the wonderful world of Zara;


shorts : 9.50$
Personally I wear those at home but hey up to you :D


And also omg PROBABLY THE BEST THING EVER !!!

okay it was 99$ but i swear its so worth it!

 I finally got the Zara city bag! Ahhhh I can't explain how excited I am to start using this when i go back for university !
I reviewed it Here btw!

After Zara, I checked out accessorise , I'm not a huge fan because there stuff aren't so me but I got my hands on this pretty wristlet that I love! 



It's perfect, it has 3 card slots, a coin purse , a middle compartment that fits the iPhone 5 perfectly (with no case) 
The bigger compartments can fit even a Samsung S3 :D and iPhone with case!

I mainly love it because for it's price it delivers!
(Came in other colours too)

it was for 25$

And FINALLY I also got this bag from Charles & Keith because 
1. Sale (it was for 68$ with 50% sale) .. And 
2. Pretty dupe of the prada isn't it?




It's not as orangey as the picture I promise its a prettier orange :D

PS; those things were bought in very very many occasions , not all at once . Except the new look stuff. I'm guilty for them.

A review series : Zara City Bag.

I've seen this bag reviewed literally everywhere ! So finally after keeping it in the back of my head for months I decided today to full on check it out and do maximum research. 


Ofcourse there's only so much research one can do about something before absolutely falling in love with it! And I did! I had to have it ! 

Sadly my local Zara didn't sell it online or in store but just to test out my luck I decided to go ahead and asked the lady , and she said she was going to check the store ... Guess what ? THEY HAD IT. 

Honestly when I first saw it I expected it to look way larger but the size was perfect ! I fell in love . I know it's weird to say so but I did honest. 

Now on to the review ..

This isn't like the "office city bag" I saw online or in reviews, I later found out that this is the "city bag" honestly it seems to just be an altered version of the office bag , it's less boxy that's for sure but it still has the same features just in a different order . Ill show you. 

To start off , 

It's 29 x 40 x 16 cm/ 11 x 16 x 6"
And it's about 60£ or 99$ 
100% polyurethane 

there's 3 zipper compartments and 2 open compartments . Within each compartment however, you have more pockets! Amazing or ?



Compartment 1:
It has 3 cars slots , a phone slot that fits the iPhone 5 perfectly , and another card slot  

Compartment 2: 
Is just a plain normal compartment 

Zipper 1 :
A little couchy thingy for your tablet :) 

 Zipper 2:
 is totally padded for laptops :) 


Colours aren't so true to camera.

I tested out the bag with books and a laptop and a tablet , and I can say it fits books and even binders without any trouble, but with everything inside it tends to get a bit heavy.




I guess the reason to why there is an "office city bag" and a "city bag" is maybe because this looks slightly less suit-case ish and is therefore better looking if you just want to carry it on a day out. 




I have no problems with the differences though so it's okay :) 

Also the zippers zip open and close perfectly , people were complaining about that but I thought it was okay :)

Honestly idk what to say about the bag other than that it fits books and folders and 17 inch laptops and IT'S JUST AMAZING. 
Not too heavy but not too light. 
Not too big but not too small.
Not too girly but not too smart.

The perfect university bag too.

I love it. Well done zara.
