if you like it then you shoulda put a ring on it...

With January is nearly at an end the sales are getting worse and worse, all the reject items that didn't sell at 25% off are now going at 75% off, and all the items that didn't even sell with 75% off are going for a few quid. But, a few quid can get you far if you're looking to invest in some eye candy for your fingers. 

Miss Selfridges 'Diva' jewellery section is my favourite place to grab a bling bargain, they have sales all year round on their stuff and this January was no exception! 

 
miss selfridge: was £10- i paid something ridiculous like £3/4 (so sorry i lost the receipt!) 

miss selfridge: was £12- i paid something like £5...

primark: £2- if you thought it was going to be discounted, its already cheap enough- you cheapskate :P

accessorize: was £12- i picked it up for a sweet £4, my friend wanted it for ages when it was full price and was gutted when i told her i only got it for four squid. mwahahaha. 

Handbags used to be my 'thing' if you get what I'm talking about; that type of item you have to buy in every different brand, colour, variety, even if its similar but a teeny bit different to one you already have... But now jewellery, mainly rings is what I'm swaying to, although I haven't quite perfected the art of wearing many different rings at a time haha. I tend to look like a child in their mums dressing up box with too many on, when I try it! What's your thing? necklaces, nail varnishes, shoes, etc?? 

Today I was sitting in my 'comms in practice' lecture and during the 5 minute break, the topic of blogs came up, and freakishly enough a fellow closet blogger popped out of the woodworks :) I'll link you to her once I've had a proper scout of her blog and know a little more about her!  

Hope you're all well,

I'm loving the first ring pic. I'm not really sure i'm an anything girl lol. I do have about 5 rings and 2 of them are chunky. I'm not much of a handbag person either lol. I'm just like laid back non-fuss stuff without feeling like a complete slob

I guess i'm a nail polish girl cause 99% of the time i have them on but its usually in simple colours like red or black :)

I've seen about a hundred rings that I want from Miss Selfridge's sale! I love that cross ring, and the kitty ring from Accessorize (: I think my "thing" is probably rings and tights? I'm not really sure to be honest! xxxx
