Retail Therapy.

When you're in a bad mood or just having a not so good day, retail therapy is the answer. 

Today was one of these days for me. As chocolate and earl grey tea wasn't helping anymore, I decided to make my bank account cry a little bit and go shopping. I have given myself a budget and decided to buy as many cool things that I can while staying in the budget. I think I have succeeded. I was mostly looking at sale sections and offers that were going around in stores. You can find some beautiful gems in the sale section if you look closely enough. 

Enough blabber, let's show you what I got today. 

This was the only purchase that was not on sale. I wanted to buy two single eyeshadows however that would cost me the same as the whole palette so I decided to buy this maybelline "The Nudes" palette. It's great, it has all the colours I always use and the pigmentation is great. I also needed a blending sponge so I got this cheap one in my local drugstore.

These beauties were a total bargain. I spotted them in New Yorker when I was browsing through their accessories section and found them for 9.95! The heel is not too big and they seem like they are a good quality shoe. I also tried them on and they were comfortable. Win win for all.

Let's talk about this beauty sent from heaven. I was looking for a new jacket as the jackets I have now suit a certain type of style. As I like to switch my styles around daily, I needed something to suit that. Again, when I was browsing New Yorker, I went to their jackets section and saw this. New Yorker doesn't really appeal to me often as most of their stuff has a material I don't particularly like but this was an exception. This jacket felt nice and heavy and the material looks and feels great. It's the type of jacket you would wear when it's sunny as it's not that heavy but also it's warm enough for when it starts to ger chilly in the evenings. Also it has tassless which make it that extra bit special. 

Also only for 14.95. For a jacket! Insane. 

The last thing I purchased was this lovely, starry blanket. I wanted a blanket for my bed to make it a bit more homey and also to wrap around me when I sit ont he couch in the evening and I feel a bit cold. It was around 4.95 in a german shop called Xenos. It looks cute and feels warm so everything is great. 

That was all I purchased within my budget and I am pretty happy with the things I managed to find. I always try to find cheaper alternatives instead of buying one expensive thing. I hope you enjoyed this post and I'll see you in the next one! xx
