I think, like with The White Company, it just looks a little dull and beige and therefore it has failed to lure me in till now. The only reason I fell into the shop today was because in the middle of what should be a summer month Leeds had a massive torrential downpour. It was quite amusing to see the normally hectic Briggate empty in about 2 seconds flat.</div><br /><div align="center">Anyhooo....I find myself in the beige looking shop and much to my surprise I find that just like IKEA it is full of little things that I don't really needs but I must buy! So here are my rain induced beige purchases...</div><br /><br /><div align="center">Face Mask £1.50<br /></div><div align="center">I think that this looks super scary, but its actually teeny face masks that you soak in toner of oils until it unravels and you can pop it on your face<br /></div><div align="center"><a href="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v26/Laurasummers_99/Sailor/4945247706673.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; width: 287px; height: 287px; text-align: center;" alt="" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v26/Laurasummers_99/Sailor/4945247706673.jpg" border="0" /></a>Travel Nail Varnish Remover £1.50</div><br /><div align="center">For my trip to Melbourne<br /><a href="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v26/Laurasummers_99/Sailor/4945247706673.jpg"></a><br /></div><p align="center"><a href="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v26/Laurasummers_99/Sailor/4934761524733.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; width: 287px; height: 287px; text-align: center;" alt="" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v26/Laurasummers_99/Sailor/4934761524733.jpg" border="0" /></a> Silly socks £3.95</p><p align="center">I cant wait to put these on - so ridiculous!<br /><br /></p><br /><br /><a href="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v26/Laurasummers_99/Sailor/4548076389125.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; width: 287px; height: 287px; text-align: center;" alt="" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v26/Laurasummers_99/Sailor/4548076389125.jpg" border="0" /></a>Shut Up Sailor!http://www.blogger.com/profile/07558429225515728500noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2247460598556864640.post-50837704910414543272009-08-19T13:13:00.008+01:002009-08-19T13:29:44.081+01:00Wants: Addidas Watch<div align="center">I don't wear a watch at the moment.
