My not-so-successful shopping trip

So on Friday, I took a trip to the Trafford Centre in Manchester to top up my spring wardrobe. I went with the intention of getting so many pastel coloured things and to buy loads of new things for the upcoming sunny months.....but yanno when you actually have money to spend and go to a huge shopping centre with loads of choice, and then you find like nothing? Well that happened! So I haven't yet got the spring wardrobe I would like, but I've made a good start!
These are just a few photos to create a sort of diary for my day out. I apologise for the not so great quality of some of the photos, these were taken on my not so great iPhone camera as I didn't take the big professional camera. This post also introduces my twin sister Laura who is also the person behind the camera on all of my photos.
So to start...here's a typical touristy photo outside 'The Great Hall' to show you mine and my sister's outfits...

I walked past Dorothy Perkins' window and just HAD to go in, the colours and clothes were just perfect. A very pastel vibe was created and I thought I would take a photo to show you all...



 We went to an Italian restaurant called Pesto which I've never been to before but the food and wine were loooovely. You could choose 3 mini dishes from a menu so you could try different foods all in 1 go. I admitted defeat on some of them though as there was just too much food!




So here are a few of my purchases from the day (I also bought a light pink biker jacket)... and as you can see there is nothing remotely pastel coloured but the patterns on the top and trousers do remind me of summer! I also bought this make-up brush and bronzer from H&M as I actually find cheaper powder bronzer to be so much better than expensive branded ones. These things and my biker jacket will be blogged soon!

Hope you've all had a good week.
