My Primark wishlist this week

Primark is one of my favourite stores! I can always go in there and find something to buy. Its great that they have so many sections so if you are looking for something particular such as a blouse or a basic red tshirt you are guaranteed to find it! Although the prices have definitely increased over the years and now sometimes i find myself saying i can pay a bit more and get a similar item in say New Look, why would i as the quality has improved so is now on par with them. Its great though, where else can you buy a whole outfit for under £40 maybe even £30 if you find some bargains! Also jewellery for £1/2, you cannot go wrong and do not feel bad if you only wear it once or twice. Especially in these recession hit times where you need your fashion fix but cannot afford to pay £40 for a new dress in Miss Selfridge, you can spend the same in Primark and come out with a bag full of goodies instead!

Its a shame Primark still do not offer online shopping (well it isn't for our bank balance!) so its been a bit harder for me to find my favourite Primark pieces. I trawled through different sites to gain an idea of what is available at the moment and come up with a few gorgeous summer pieces that are a must have!



1. Ring, £3
I love the colours of this ring, it is perfect for summer.
2. Dress, £10
A perfect little summer dress which is easy to wear day or night. It can be dressed down with a denim jacket and sandals or dressed up with some wedges, chunky bracelets and big earrings for the evening.

3. Maxi dress, £10
You cannot go wrong with a maxi dress and this one is perfect for people who are not a fan of bright colours but want to still dress nice and summery during the warmer months. The Aztec print is great and offers a statement piece as opposed to a plain simple maxi. A light brown floppy felt hat would look amazing with this. It would tie in really nicely with the simple brown belt that is included to offer a slight shaping to the dress to show off your curves. As there is a print you cannot go overboard on accessories so along with the hat, a simple wooden bracelet would be enough for a real head turner look!

4. Blouse, £10
In case dresses are not your thing but you still want to look smart during summer, this sleeveless blouse is a winner. The blue and green colours are great for the ones who object to wearing girly colours but still want a summery look. Team it with denim shorts for a more casual outfit or tuck it in to the right style of skirt for smarter look.

5. Necklace, £4
A great statement necklace that will go with so many things. It is perfect to throw on over a plain top to instantly add some glam and being gold rather than a bright colour will go with so many colours.

6. Bag, £9
This bag really does not look like its from Primark. It looks expensive and sophisticated. Its a great size to fit all your bits and pieces in for college or Uni and the double strap will come in so useful depending on how you want to hold the bag that day.

7. Cropped top, £4
What an absolute bargain! I cannot believe this top is only £4, that's what I'm talking about Primark, where else could you pay so little for such an on trend top! This is perfect for if you want to experiment wearing this new style of top but you are not 100% sure its for you and don't want to spend too much. I love the lace material, it makes it that bit more expensive looking and takes it from a casual top to one that can be worn anytime. For the ones who do not want to flash to much belly, team it with a high waisted skirt/shorts, which is what i would personally prefer. If you are more confident and are lucky enough to have a toned tum, there are many ways to wear this from leather/ wet look black leggings to skinny jeans. Personally i feel if you were to show your stomach i would keep the bottom half covered as the outfit could come across a bit cheap and over-exposed otherwise.

8. Playsuit, £10
I love playsuits, i bought one from Primark two years ago in a similar style and i still loving wearing it. Its so versatile as i can dress it up with heels for a night out, wear with tights and boots in winter or bare legs and sandals in summer! The colour combination is great as it lets you alternate colour accessories to show off so many different looks and is not too bright letting you where this from spring time through to summer.

So what are your thoughts on Primark, do you love it or hate it? Anything on my wishlist that you would buy?
