While I was recovering from my knee surgery, I did a bit of shopping (I was stuck in bed for a while, the need for retail therapy was very real!), including picking up a few bits and pieces from Torrid when they had half price international shipping. Win! Here’s what I picked out (and a somewhat amusing tale about getting stuck in a bralette). View Post
River Island Plus Clothing Haul
After seeing lots of my UK blogger babes wearing clothes from River Island Plus and finding out that they do in fact ship to New Zealand, I decided to give them a try. It turns out that River Island not only does petite, straight and plus size womenswear (sizes 6-28 or US 2-24) but they also have menswear (including big and tall) and kids clothing. I love being able to order pieces for my whole family from one place, so that’s a real bonus. View Post
Boohoo Plus Clothing Haul
After having varied experiences with boohoo.com (some purchases were great and some not so much), I’d given up on them until I recently found out that their plus size range had expanded from 16-24 to 16-28. I believe in second chances, and figured that if they had extended their range then perhaps they might have sorted out their fit issues as well. View Post
ASOS, Society+ and Yours Clothing Haul
As well as shopping at Torrid on Black Friday, I picked up a few pieces from some stores that are old favourites – ASOS, Society+ and Yours Clothing. These are some of the stores that I shop at most often, because they are reasonably priced, have free or reasonable shipping, and often have specials. Another big drawcard for me to shop with these stores is that they are usually pretty consistent with sizing. View Post
Boxing Day Sale Lush Haul
You all know how much of a Lush fan I am, right? Well if you didn’t already, you’re about to. I did a spot of shopping (just a little bit, honest!) at their Boxing Day Sale plus I got some Lush goodies for Christmas, so I thought I’d show you my Lush haul with my first video for 2016 – a good way to start the year, don’t you think?
