I was meaning to do a proper video about all the lovelies I've accumulated during the mid-season sales.
BUT my camera was out of battery, and the audio does not link up when I use my webcam.
So I've had to do this silent film-style!
(All links to websites/online shops are on the YouTube video, so give it a clicky-clicky!)
Also - PLEASE excuse some of "my" spelling errors.
Stupid Movie Maker kept deleting random letters!

Remember, the 450 Followers Giveaway (although there's over 500 of you now which is so wonderful!) ends this Sunday - so this week is your last chance to enter!
Oh, one more thing: my current phone provider has been bleeding me dry over the last few months - so I changed this week, and for £5 more per month I got a fancy schmancy Blackberry Bold 9700:
I've never had a really nice phone before, so I'm rather in love!
Plus it's SO much easier to keep on top of my emails and Twitter - be sure to add me if you haven't already!
Muchos love,

PS: Notice anything different? I've given this blog a bit of a makeover, thanks to the help of Illustrator and artiste extraordinaire Lucy Farfort!
Check out her work via LucysHappyPlace.com, but I'll be posting an interview with her next time!

Can I ask what size you got the River Island jackets in? I have seen one I fancy online but am not sure what size would fit me best so it would be great to know what you found best! Also yay for Blackberry I just ordered one last night :)
I got mine in an 18 since there were only 18s and 12s left. It's really big on me, but it's meant to look a bit baggy I think. I could have done with a 16 as they're generous sizing anyway :)
LOL At your face at the end! So adorable! You got some really cute accessories!
Carla you are just too ridiculously cute!
Oh my,i'm so in love with the jacket.Too bad there is no River Island in Portugal,damn. =D
Love all the other purchases, and sorry your purse is empty. *hugs* I know how that is,mine is too,but i'm counting on a few extra money in a week or two,even if i know where i'm spending it.All planned.lol.
hey carla, love the wee video!
you have some great finds there
good work lady!

VAL: Haha, I always call it my *SADFACE* so if you ever see me say that on Twitter, that's the expression I'm doing! ;)

Joana: I'm sure they do international delivery - they're one of my favourite shops on the UK high street! Hehe mine's definately empty now, but I'm practically working full time straight out of uni at the moment, so it should be nice and full again soon! :) xxxxxxxxx
Those are a whole lot of wonderful pieces. I just realized that I really need to stock up on accessories!
And the illustration at the top is amazing!

Aw I really love your video! Put a smile on my face for sure, especially when you sadly shook your purse at the end. I know that feeling! Although I'm ever thankful to you as I saw a girl wearing that River Island floral jacket the other day & fell head over heels with it, yet had no idea where it came from or even how recent it was. So you've solved that mystery for me! Thank you!
Fantastic finds - good eye for bargain. Saw the intro for Jammy Dodger ring and my reaction :o hehe. Thx for sharing, if the shops were open right now, i'd be right there, inspired by your vid.
Love Lucy's banner, she always have lovely ideas.
I want to cut off all of your hair and glue it to my head! Its ridiculously cute. xo
