Matalan is my new favourite shop!

                    



Aztec Coral Dress - Matalan - £28
Now I have to say, this is the most perfect dress I had ever set eyes on, I saw it and just had to try it on, I couldn't not buy it! Although, I don't know if I suit it or not because it's not something I would usually wear, and my mum said the same thing, but I just love it so much. I have four parties to attend this month and I need new outfits for each too so. My mum has treated me to all these items as she is the best mum in the whole world - love her! Also, I bought these heels from Miss Selfridge in the sale from £65 to £25 and I haven't had chance to wear them yet, and they match perfectly!


Tiedye Midi Dress - Mojo - £25
Now I know this isn't from Matalan but it's one of my recent buys and I absolutely love this dress. This was taken last night at my friends 18th party - I apologise for the black and white photo and bad lighting! I usually go for short dresses but in this I feel more classy and it really shows off your curves too, well... not that I have any haha! 


Black Peplum Top - Matalan - £12
Right I know I already posted about a black peplum top I bought from Primark, however I took it back as I realised it was a little too big for me and it wasn't that nice in all fairness. I came across this and it fits perfectly with the lovely frill that doesn't stick out too much or is flat and limp either, which is just what I wanted! 



Faux Black Leather Shorts - Matalan - £16

I was just ambling around the shop and came across these, I tried them on as I have been wanting a leather studded skirt in so long, but I've gone off the idea and thought I'd just get these as a replacement. They have a really good fit, and don't cause your bum to hang out unlike my endless pairs of Topshop ones which I find inappropriate to wear half the time unless on holiday or going out for drinks, they aren't really for everyday wear. But these I can wear for college, paired with a jumper if it's decent weather or with tights too in the colder months. I really love them! 

Silver Cross Necklace - Primark - £1.50
I saw this by chance and I thought it was cute so I just bought it as it's practically free.

False Eyelashes - Primark - £1
I was queuing up in Primark and saw these in the 'queuey uppy' bit in the little bowls, and I had a party to attend that night and my endless pairs of other fake lashes are slowly deteriorating so as they're such cheapies I thought I'd buy some just to try. Even if they were crappy, I could bin them. But they actually aren't too bad, but obviously not as good as my usual Eyelure brand I get!
