Pre-Birthday Haul

Since my birthday is next week, I'd gone to get my suit for that day, because I have to always wear a brand new outfit on my birthdays. It will fall on a weekday, so I doubt we'll do anything special, BUT Mr.CZ is taking me to Edinburgh that weekend. Mainly to shop, yes. Thing is, Dundee is a small town-like city, so many many things are missing. Primark is small and doesn't stock most of the stuff (like in Newcastle), Jane Norman is not here, MAC is not here (can you believe it?! I felt like fainting when I was told that.) Going to Edinburgh will be like going from Chandigarh to New Delhi, or Pune to Mumbai. One hour train ride. We'll stay there for a night.
We'll call this a warm up haul.

  • Primark Black Clutch Bag ~ £8 | Rs.665
  • Primark heart studded makeup bag ~ £3 | Rs.250
  • Primark Accessory Hanger ~ £2 | Rs.167. Super cool! You can hang belts, necklaces, etc.
  • H&M Round Sunglasses ~ Sale, Only £1 | Rs.83
  • Primark Charm Bracelet ~ £2 | Rs.167
  • H&M Black Flower Clip/Brooch ~ Sale, Only £1 |Rs.83
  • H&M Red Sweater ~ Sale £4.50 | Rs.375

I was hoping to get shoes, but no luck. There's was a pair I liked in Primark, but no Size 3.
That's a dress and a top I got on another day. Final birthday outfit will be shown in OOTD post. I'm still not sure which to go with- red, lime yellow or mint- all incomplete choices, meaning: either shoe problems, or jacket problems. Damn my feet and this freezing weather! I'm actually missing the Delhi heat =D

Enjoy your Friday night! Mine will be filled by Chinese takeout & newest ep of Grey's Anatomy- the only show I'm attached to, like I was to Desperate Housewives.

  4. Hi CZ,

    I read somewhere that the creative minds (like urself) are always good at heart and it reflects in the work they do .
    I have always admired your write ups and now i must say i like the pics that you put up in your blog enteries.
    Be it a lipstick on top of a novel, or on top of a feathered mat or may be a pile of things from your bag... All of them are perfect array of colors depicted.
    I have also realised that the efforts you put in to do the write ups clearly show that you love doing what you do.
    ( unlike the cosmo article, that clearly meant that you were not in the right mindset)
    Wishing a warm and cheerful Birthday ( in advance)
    Love
    Baban

I ♥ finding little notes in my Vanity Case, so do drop one. I read all of them & I try my best to reply to each & every one of them [check back in 2-3 days =D] but most times it's physically impossible! Either way, I love to hear from you & really appreciate you taking the time out to share your thoughts <3

Thank you for reading! :)
