My niece came to visit over the weekend and being young,
free and single the girl likes to shop – A LOT! Every sightseeing excursion was
laced with quick stopovers when a store came in sight so, needless to say, I
ended up spending quite some time in the retail madness that Central London is a
month before Christmas.
One of her particular favourites is TK Maxx, what can I say,
she likes designers. I usually do not care about well-known brands and don’t
particularly think that quality is better just because a designer name is
attached but as I was already there, I might as well have a little look around.
And I have to admit, I’m a convert. Found some lovely scented candles for
Christmas presents and a few bits and pieces in the household section for myself.
But my star buy was my handbag. It’s navy, so different to my usual black or
brown yet still classic and timeless and large enough for my lunch to bring to
work together with all the necessities (i.e. everything bar the kitchen sink) a
woman needs to carry around with her on a daily basis – something most men will
never understand but every woman out there will agree with.
A quick google search on the Paul Costelloe website revealed
a price tag of £275 – TK Maxx price: £75! I know, I know, it’s still
a little bit of a luxury but I love it and at a discount of almost 73% a
bargain I just could not resist.
Any bargains you’ve bagged lately? Would love to hear about
them ...
