Some purchases I have loved

So I have made some good purchases this year that I would love to share with you. I know I have done similar posts, but wanted to share these items with you.

Here are some purchases I have loved so far this year.

First of all it is this pair of black trainers purchased from Sainsbury’s for £14 and they are really light on your feet and easy to walk in. Sometimes a size 5 is too big for me, so often I have to go a half size, size 4 and a half, but not many stores do half sizes still.

When it comes to trainers they don’t have to be expensive, but if you running or play sports like tennis then I would recommend buying specialised running trainers and tennis shoes, because these types are made for daily and general use and may not be comfortable or suitable for running or playing sports.

They do have some nice fashion pieces in Sainsbury’s that I am often tempted to buy something new, and there is a lot of choice. I really think they have up the ante on their clothes and would recommend their clothes.

The next item is a black and white top bought in the sale at TK Maxx and was under £10, and I love it, I have worn it a lot and is comfortable and covers the right places.

I am very self conscious in the summer and so having a top like this helps to keep you cool but isn’t figure hugging, and fits nicely.

The next item I have enjoyed wearing are these Peach coloured shorts from Primark and they were £5.00. They are a bit short for me to wear them alone as I do have the problem where the top of my thighs can rub together so I do have to wear a pair of cycling shorts underneath them, but I do still really like them.

They wash well and very light fitting and great for sitting in the garden or doing long walks which I have done, since buying these shorts.

I bought this London bag from a little tourist shop in Victoria, London because they were doing a deal of buying 2 of these types of bags for £5 and so I couldn’t resist. It is very deep so can carry quite a lot, doesn’t slip off your shoulders and light weight.

I love foldable bags that looks like a little purse, but when it is unzipped it becomes a carrier bag, and I bought this one up in London, in Foyles for I think £5 was worth it, especially if you don’t want to use plastic bags anymore.

So they are the things that I have loved so far, I have some other bits I would like to share next, but so this blog isn’t too long, I will save these for another blog.

Please stay tuned. If you would like to comment on this blog then please leave a comment below.

Many thanks for reading,
