British Bootsales And Hair

Hello! Been busy the last few days with the family and various other things but of course, I've still managed to buy stuff. Not clothes though, things for my bedroom. Went to a good old British bootsale and got a gorgeous dressing table. I need to have a serious clear out to fit it in so it's sat in the living room at the moment but the cats are liking the extra climbing spot. I did also pick up 2 dresses, some cute little candles including a tiny little china elephant and a slate heart. Love bootsales! 

The girl who I got the dresses from was my favourite because she said she loved my hair, haha. Another lady walking down a corridor yesterday also said she liked it and it made me think about all the different colours it's been recently which I'll make a post about later :)

Bids, boots and guinea pigs


Yesterday I got 2 things on eBay that I am super excited about! Super super excited about. First thing I won was this bomber style jacket. I've been looking at jackets like this since last winter and the fur collar is an added bonus, it looks so cosy! And the cost of it you ask? Under a tenner (and that's with postage as well). It couldn't really be any more purse friendly. It's not a great make or anything but I'm really not fussed as long as stuff looks how I want it to.
The second thing I bought were some barely worn Dr Martens (something I've also wanted for quite a long time). I couldn't really afford them even though they were selling for quite a bit less than what they're sold for new but I still kept going on about them because hey, a girl can dream.  It did good to keep talking about them because my Mum suggested asking my Nan to maybe put some towards them for an early Christmas present. After a quick phone call she said yes and boom, I snapped them up. There were a couple of other pairs the same style as well but these ones were the only ones with the pink laces and they completely won me over. I MAY have already started planning outfits to go with these.


Also yesterday we went to Hobbycraft and got some card making things, made my first one today and popped it up on Etsy :) And we had a quick stop in at Pets At Home to  'Aww!' at all of the animals pick up some grub for Roxy and the cats. Usually it's the rabbits I love the most in there but for some reason I was going a bit gaga for the guinea pigs. They had about 30 at the front of the store in 2 'cages' and they lured me in with their mental hairstyles.



Also had a lovely day today which I'll post about later or tomorrow. Hope everyone is having a good week :) TGIF!

Getting post, Top Shop & more cats

One of the best things about having a mini Ebay addiction, apart from the obvious of cheap clothes, is having so much mail! I genuinely had no idea about what I'd ordered either this morning so it was like getting presents.

I got a lemony, sleeveless, button up top with a collar which is nice! And then in the same sort of style but longer, a denim one with a few studs on the fronts of the shoulders. My absolute bargain came as well today, my Top Shop skirt! I won it for £1.04 and saw the exact same one last night and it had reached about £9.50. Needless to say, I'm super super happy with what I paid and it's actually better than I thought which makes it 10 times better, haha.



I've had a morning browse and bid on a nice playsuit and I'm watching a brown biker-ish jacket with a fur collar. Oh how I wish I had endless money. Meanwhile the cats are skitting around the house and making a tonne of noise. You wouldn't think they're annoying when they look as cute as they do.


Winners and Losers has finished downloading now though so I can block them out with that. Does anyone else love Winners and Losers or am I the only one? I randomly watched an episode on Itvplayer and I absolutely love it.

Hello Goodbye

Quick little intro post before I go to sleep!

My name's Chloe and it's likely that I'll mostly post about the things above ^. I can't promise to be interesting but I'd quite like to write little bits and bobs about the things that I see, buy, hear and my little best friend that I get to cuddle at night (below) and her big grumpy brother.
I'll do a proper entry soon but I wanted my blog to look less bare and have more cat on it :)
