So last Thursday whilst away with Mum in Norfolk, we decided to take a day trip (for shopping purposes) into Norwich. My Mum has never been to Norwich and so wanted to go in to the city and have a look around. Lincoln doesn't have that many larger shops and there were a few items was looking to purchase that I thought would be easier to get in Norwich. So I thought I'd show you what I purchased:
So Make up purchases first. I have been longing to go to a store called Jarrolds for quite some time but always been a little bit intimidated as it looks so grand. I finally bit the bullet and went in last week and took advantage of the MAC store within it. I was after a few more pieces (most were out of stock!) but I got the Limited Edition Viva Glam Arianna Grande Lipglass (£14.00) and the MAC Pro Longwear SPF 10 Foundation (£25.50). I've been looking to get a new foundation for a while and this is so true to my skin tone and not at all heavy but still gives me enough coverage. I love it so far (only worn it twice!).
I then went into their Boots and found that they had a NYX stand (super exciting to find out!) and purchased a few of the bits I've heard good things about. The NYX Green Colour Correcting concealer (£5.50), NYX Soft Matte Lip Creams in Cannes (dupe for Kylie Jenner kit) and Prague (Each £5.50) the NYX Brow Pomade in Espresso (£5.50) with Application Brush (£8.50). If you are looking for a matte lip cream which will last - these are fantastic, with such a good range of colours and really do last after eating and drinking. I'll hopefully get some swatches of these posted soon - likely to be in a favourites if I'm honest!
Clothing wise, I got some dungarees from New Look. I'm really loving the dungaree trend at the moment and love how comfy they can be with a t-shirt and some pumps. I believe these (below) are the ones I purchased and they were £29.99.
I'm also going to a hen do next weekend and wanted some leather look trousers or wet look coated jeans to pair with some cami tops and a blazer - I love this style. I nipped into River Island and found some of the Molly Jeggings which were coated and liked how they looked.
The two cami tops I got were from Matalan and I'm super surprised at the price and quality if I'm honest. I wanted either a white cami top or a really bright colour (will probably wash me out but hey ho). They were only £6.00 each and definitely could be a double for the Topshop camis which are about £16.00 - very happy with these and may end up getting the rest of the colours!

So those are the main pieces I bought for that trip, but I left Norwich wanting more clothes than before I went. Any of these pieces catch your eye? What would you pair them with?
