New Flat Haul

Some of you may know that I am packing to move next month. I am moving to a little flat not to far from where i currently live (actually it is 2 buildings away lol) so i have started collecting things on my travels (mainly to Ikea!!) ready for my new BOY FREE home!


* Warning!!!!* If you don't like pink or purple look away now! It appears the flat will have every shade of pink and purple possible!!!


Ikea


I do love Ikea!! I love looking at the rooms for inspiration and the Market Hall is like my heaven!!


On my recent trip I purchased this gorgeous mirror, I really like that it looks vintage but being black gives a more modern feel. When I brought this I think they had got the pricing wrong as I paid £19.99 and weirdly the same frame without the mirror was £24.99. When I went yesterday the pricing seemed to have  changed but now the mirror is £25 and the frame only has stayed the same. Not sure how that works but anyway it is really cute!


Ung Drill Mirror, £25

To go with my purple lounge I also purchased these flower pots, I wanted to get the pink to match but they were under all the purple ones and I couldn't get to them :( oh well good excuse to go back!!
They are a complete bargain at £1.39 each! 


Tip: If like me you can't keep plants alive Ikea do some nice artificial plants that look realistic


Papaja Plant Pot, £1.39

Ralph Lauren Home - Bicester Outlet Village

This is my big treat for when I move in! I have wanted the duvet for years! I brought the matching pillow cases about 4 or 5 years ago in a House of Fraser sale but could never justify the price, plus, the bf didn't want to sleep under a pink duvet.


I had seen this in the outlet store a few times but still thought it was a lot of money as I have to have a Superking size. On my recent trip they had an offer of £20 off which made it a little more reasonable (kinda lol!!) at £79.99 and as I am now going to be living boy free I thought why not!


The duvet matches the Oxford shirt in the main collection from Ralph Lauren collection and is in the same cotton material. I like that you can have 2 different looks, one side has the stripe, the other is just plain pink. I am so excited to put this on my bed but am resisting until the first night in my new place.




My next purchase was this gorgeous door mat with princess motif. It is made by a german website called www.giftcompany.de and is washable plus has a rubber non slip back to it.
I brought it from a little shop in a village I was visiting. The shop was closing down and had everything in the sale, I managed to get it for £12 down from £40!
I wish I could find another shop in the UK as looking at the website they do some really cute stuff and some cool doormats!

I have actually decided it is to nice to be a doormat so I am going to use it as a mat by my bed.

My last visit was to TK Maxx. Now I must admit I am not a big fan of TK Maxx purely because I hate going through rails of clothes, however I do know they are good for homeware so ventured in.

My first find was this bright pink utensil holder with four utensils. It is a shiny hot pink plastic and was only £5.99.

The other purchase was this cute baby pink metal birdcage. It has a little mirror at the bottom which I think I will actually take out. It also has 6 little hooks which you can hang necklaces from, I think I am going to buy some cheap necklaces with birds etc on to put inside and use as decoration rather then storage. I love how cute it is and was only £7.99!

So that is my haul, I will do a flat tour post when I am moved in and sorted, I am sooo excited!!


Stay Beautiful,
