FASHION: SUMMER HOLIDAY PRIMARK HAUL




Hello hello! you may have noticed i'm going on holiday in a few weeks so I took a cheeky trip to Primark to stock up on those holiday essentials. I thought i'd share a few bits and pieces with you guys. I'm only going away for 10 days so I didn't need to stock up on loads but I just wanted to get a few essentials. 

So of course I picked up some vest tops because primark ones are just so cheap and comfy. I got a thin strappy white one and striped one and then a thicker black strap vest too. 

I picked up this gorgeous khaki kaftan beach cover up thing which was only £5! I really like it and I know i'm gonna live in it on my holiday. 

I got a really cute cropped stripe vest aswell which I think was about £2.50, I don't normally wear crop tops but I think this looks really nice, I bought it a couple of sizes up too so its not too cropped ( needed to fit my boobs in) 

I also got these cute culottes which I really like, they are so comfy and cute and I think they will look really nice with a black vest top.

Aswell as clothes I needed a couple of bits so I got this towel which I absolutley love! I've picked it up a couple of times now but put it down but my beach towel is really looking worse for wear so I just got it anyway and i'm pretty sure it scanned through at £5 instead of £7 so it was fate!

I got these cute bracelets, they were only £2, I wanted some anklets but they didn't have any silver ones so I picked these up but they are too small for my ankles, might have a play with them and try and extend one of them. 

I thought i'd include these sunnies from last summer they are from primark too, I always stock up on primark sunglasses because they are so cheap i've got loads of pairs though so i've managed to not buy any recently. 

Finally my favourite thing is this bag, I spotted a few people mention it on instagram so I keep my eyes pealed in primark and was so happy when I spotted it.  I don't really need any more holiday bags but it's just so cute and its such an Amy bag.


So that's everything I picked up in Primark for my holiday, have you got a primark haul for your summer holiday? Where are you going on holiday this year? 
















REVIEW: BANDELETTES ANTI-CHAFING THIGH BANDS


Bandelettes - Only avaliable at www.mish-online.co.uk - £13.99* 
Avaliable in beige, black or white lace or beige or plain black.

Many of us have to suffer with painful irritation and chafing when wearing skirts and dresses, this isn't something i've suffered with until my most recent holiday. So when I found out about Bandelettes I have to say I was very excited, I've never heard of anyone suffering with chafing of the inner thighs before so I didn't think that something like this even existed. They are designed to be worn under skirts and dresses and prevent the inner thigh from rubbing together. 



Inside the Bandelettes theres silicone which keeps them in place and stops them from falling down. The Bandelettes are great for both men and women and come in a selection of sizes! Its very easy to measure yourself so you get the best fit. There's two different styles available the lace pair which come in black or white which are great for a special occasion or for everyday, these are pretty and I think the white are so dainty. They also come in a plain style in black and beige which are unisex and less pretty but more versatile and practical. These would be a little less obvious under clothing as they appear seamless. They would also be great with sporting clothes like shorts as they are very simple and plain.




Here in Birmingham it's been hot the last couple of days so I decided to give these ago! I have to say i'm impressed! They are very comfy and once you have them on you feel like your not wearing any. They have stopped my legs rubbing together now they just glide past one another. I love the lace style as I think they kind of look like stockings, they are pretty and sexy. The plain pair are great as I said for body-con skirts/ dresses because you would want a less obvious texture underneath. I think they are abit long as I did see them peep under a few of my skirts so I think it would be great if they came in different lengths. I'm quite short and I like to wear short skirts so a shorter length would be ideal, however for a taller person these ones would be great. I'm going away next week to Gran Canaria and i'm so excited to bring my Bandelettes along so I can wear skirts and dresses without worrying about my thighs chafing.

The Bandelettes are great for all occasions, some people suffer with chafing all the time not only when it's hot so these are fab to prevent irritation to the upper thigh. Maybe on a night out or your out shopping and you notice your legs are starting to chafe. Bandelettes are the perfect way to prevent this so stock up for your Christmas parties and never worry about it again and they come in the different colours and styles so you can find that perfect pair for any outfit.

At only £13.99 a pair these are a fab little investment, you should hand wash them in cold water with a mild detergent and air dry.
