I HAVE DEPOP!!!!

Wow, its been a week or two since I've blogged and I feel so guilty, but here I am to make it up to you with a positive blog post.

I heard about the buzz of an app called 'Depop', where you sell items and people can make an instant payment using PayPal, sounded like a great idea, but the thought of it sounding familiar to eBay didn't really sell the app to me. eBay to me is a bit slow, sometimes you don't get any interest in your items and its just not my cup of internet-tea. Depop I must say is my new found love, its a god send to people with a wardrobe full of stuff they never use or wear. Its a fast app which allows people to buy from you in the click of a button, all the information is sent to you correctly and its 100% safe.

For the month of August depop have decided to do a 'no depop fee' month, so get selling your stuff before the offer ends. You will never be charged for listing your items, when you sell an item depop will take 10% commission from your final sale, which is not a lot, and they will also take a small depop fee from you, however if you do not sell the item you can delete it/keep it on and you will not be charged (unless you make a sale with the item).

 

I have been on depop 3 days and already sold two items making me a very happy girl and making someone else a very happy girl. All the buyers and sellers are very friendly, except from the odd person I have had be mean to me, but you will get that anywhere. Its so easy to add items onto your account and is fun to do! You can choose from different filters to jazz up your pictures or you can go natural and add no filter, opinions are endless. So if you have a room full of things you need quick rid of, then stick them on depop and watch the money fall into your PayPal account very quickly. I know I cant say much as I have only sold two items but there has been a lot of interest on my other items so I look forward to selling more.

 

So follow me and I will follow back: oliviacathx

I hope you join depop soon, thanks for reading.

River Island Sale Find!

Hey girls.

Today was a lovely day, me and my friends decided to go and try out the new American diner. It was the absolute BOMB! Anyyyyyyyway.. We went for a looks around some shops afterwards and I promised myself I wouldn't buy anything, but we all know that never happens, however I only spent £7 after my meal which was okay I guess. I went into River Island with the intention of just looking rather than buying but when I came across this purse IN THE SALE I couldn't leave without it. I don't tend to buy purses a lot as there always boring colours and patterns but when I saw this purse I knew it was there waiting for me! Soooo here's a picture, tell me what you think..

                              

The picture isn't the best and the flash makes all the marks show up when I say marks I mean that this

 sort of material is one that gets scratch marks on easily and especially with the hologram style it makes it easy to leave marks. The purse already had a few dints in it, hence why it was on sale but it wasn't marked a lot. I love the hologram effect and it's taken me ages to find anything with the hologram style on. This purse was £7 which I thought was extremely cheap for RI. 

Here's what the inside looks like..

                            

This picture is better, I love the idea of having my own style instead of following a trend as the world would be boring if we all dressed the same and had similar styles, this is what I thought about when I saw this purse, it's so unique and different therefore it's mine. 

Does anyone else own any hologram bags/purses send me pictures! I'm intrieged.

BOTD | Bargain Of The Day

Hi girls! 

Sorry it's been a while, I've just been super busy lately but I will try to keep up with the posts. Today I have a bargain that I wanted to share with you all! I went into matalan today to get my sister some school shoes and promised myself I wouldn't buy anything but once I came across this item I had to have it. 

            

This gorgeous bag was only.. Wait for it.. £1 it was on sale and it was originally £8. There were only three left in this colour so I had to get it before they all went, I have a wedding to attend in April so I had a reason to buy it (excuses excuses). The bag is actually a very neon yellow but doesn't show up as bright in the picture! You can also pull the flap up and use it as a bigger clutch which looks just as nice. I just thought Ide share this with you all as I love a good bargain and I was super excited to show you all!

Haul | Matalan winter sale

Hey beautiful ladies,

Today I had a look around Matalan as I heard there was a sale on, I wasn't very impressed with the womens clothing as they were still abit on the pricey side for me even when half price (Im a cheapskate) but I did try some things on and only found a few items I was happy with. So here goes!

 

Matalan is one of my faveorite place for jewelry as they always seem to have jewelry in that really suits my style. At the moment im completley addicted to midi rings/knuckle rings and Matalan is the place for midi rings! They have such a wide variety. I was lucky enough to come across these rings above that were in the sale (even though there dirt cheap at the original price).

The set of three midi rings were £2.50 (half price) and I fell in love with them as soon as I saw them, they are so simple and small with a tiny rimestone in the middle. Everytime I buy midi rings I always get size Small due to my fingers being so skinny and these rings fit perfectly. 10/10 and a bargain.

The set of five finger and midi rings above were originally £6.00 reduced to £3.00 but unfortunatley the lady at the till didnt take the discount off so I ended up paying the full price which made me mad as im all about saving money but what the heck! These rings are so worth paying the extra £3. I love the fact this set comes with a ring for each finger but you can swap them about as apart from the thumb ring the others fit most fingers. I especially love the crown ring! Even though I payed full price to me it was still a bargain as the rings are so nicely made and good quality.

 

Lace top: I was really impressed with this top as it was only age 16 (Im 18) but fitted perfectly and actually leaving some room for me to grow into. I find it hard to find the right size for me at Matalan when it comes to clothes but I was not expecting this top to fit and it did! This crop top was the only item I purchased which wasn't in the sale, it cost £8 which to me is a tiny bit to much for the amount of material the top is made out of and the fact its a teenage size, normally teenage clothes are cheaper than adults. I had to get it though as I love anything lace, and the feel of the material is very soft. I will be pairing this top with some high waisted jeans.

Daisy top: This daisy top does not look flattering in the photo above but in person it looks a lot better. I have had my eye on this top for a while but as it was in the kids section I didn't pay much attention to it, but when I saw it was on sale today I had to try it on, it was only age 15 but IT FIT ME YEYYY! I love daisy prints on clothing so this was perfect for me. It is cropped so I will pair it with either a high waisted skater skirt or some high waisted jeans. This crop top only cost £3.50!!! That is the beauty of fitting into childrens clothes. My faveorite purchase of the day by far!

Studded converse trainers: I wasn't to keen on these trainers when I saw them but as they were only £7.50 I thought they might come in handy, once I tried them on I realised how pretty they actually were. Very comfy and cheap!!! They have these in black to but I didn't like the black pair at all. I would pair these trainers with jeans as they go with pretty much any colour.

 

A good kind of successful shopping trip!
