Hi Everyone,

I have totally neglected my blog as of late. Ive been soo busy and havent had much to write about as im completely skint at the moment – purely because im saving for my spending money for my holiday in 3 weeks…….to LAS VEGAS!! So my lack of money means a lack of haul posts

Im sooo excited to be going to America, and cant wait to go on a complete spending spree!! Eeeek!!

In the meantime, i will try my best to post some new bits on my blog, but i would also like to thank everyone for still coming to my page. I am actually overwhelmed at the number of visitors i have had, so thank you

Marc Jacobs Special Item Store NYC

Before i travelled to New York in November, i did some research on discount designer stores – and stumbled across the MJ special items store. Set on a quiet part of Bleecker Street, i really didnt know what to expect, but after reading some fantastic reviews on various blogs, i decided i had to go there and see for myself the amazing bargains.

I wasn’t disappointed – I did have to queue outside to get in for about 15 min, but it was worth it. The shop is possibly the smallest, most cramped shop i have ever been in. You really have to scan everywhere to make sure you haven’t missed anything, keep your eyes peeled in every nook and cranny too as no doubt their are some other items hiding away, ready for you to purchase them!! Heres a few of my purchases…..

MJ Bowler Bag – $49 (Yes, i kid you not, $49) You can also get it with yellow, green, purple or blue writing.

MJ Hearts Clutch in Purple (Also available in gold, silver, metallic blue and metallic red) – $35.00

My new found love for Bath & Body Works….

After a recent shopping trip to New York – I stumbled upon a little gem…..Bath & Body Works.

Now im guessing that in the US, this is the equivalent to the UK’s Body Shop or similar??

I was initially pulled in by the big advertisement in the window which was ‘$15 and under stocking fillers’ – but was absolutely in awe of the variety of bubble baths, hand lotions and sprays. I purchased 5 (yes 5!) Pocketbac antibacterial hand gels for $5! They are perfect to keep on my desk at work, especially with all the winter viruses and cold going around, and they smell amazing – My favourite being the Japanese Cherry Blossom!

I also grabbed 3 of the fragrance mists as they were buy 2, get 1 free. The scents last ages considering they are only body sprays, and there is sooo much choice!!

 

FYI Bath & Body Works – Please please please ship to the UK
