Charity Shop Haul!

Im one of those people who always envy my friends that go into a Charity shop & manage to pick up such nice clothes at such good prices. Whenever I go browsing around charity shops I can never find anything & just end up coming out with an armful of books! 
My boyfriends mum volunteers at her local charity shop where her friend works so she also ends up coming home with loads of bargains from top name clothing stores etc. 
I decided to go along with her one day as she manages to see the clothes before they go out on sale which I thought was the perfect way for me to be able to have a good look without missing out by getting there too late. 
One woman had brought in a bag full of clothes which I literally could of taken the lot,she had my ideal wardrobe! I brought home a bag full of stuff,as did my boyfriends mum & we tried them all on. In the end I just ended up with these 3 dresses which came to £8 altogether!


It wasn't until a few days later that I actually realised that all these dresses are from the Tesco Florence & Fred range! Why do I never spot these lovely dresses when they are on sale?! Not that I am complaining as I got them for about £2.50 each! They are all in such lovely condition too! 

I wasn't going to have both stripey dresses but they are both so different,the first one being more of a going out one which I can team with a pair of heels & the other one being more casual & loose fitting so that it is comfortable to wear on hot summer days,I want to purchase a yellow belt for this one as I think this will really make the outfit stand out more & add a bit more colour.

I already have a black dress like this but we all know a girl can never have too many black dresses,they are all different right?! ;) 
I love the lace detail on the top of this dress & love that it came with the belt too, I need an occasion to wear this now! 

Do any of you enjoy Charity shopping? If so,what has been your favorite/biggest bargains?!

TRESemme 7 Day Smooth System Review!


1: Apply a generous amount of the shampoo to wet hair & then follow with the conditioner & leave it on for 2-3 minutes.
2: Towel dry hair & then apply approx 8-10 pumps (for medium length hair) of the heat activated treatment & then comb it through. 
 3: Blow dry hair completely for the best results. 
4: Straighten hair to activate the thermal technology, divide into small sections & use your straighteners on their highest setting. Repeat 3-5 times over each section. 

Annnnd voila! Smooth straight hair!

After 5 days with just using the shampoo & conditioner,none of the heat activated treatment which they say lasts 7 days between washes... It was still smooth & straight!!


Review

My hair being naturally curly & frizzy,I am always on the look out for new hair products to tame the frizz. Although I have just recently started wearing my hair curly I still like to tame the frizz! The weather has been getting warmer so I have been straightening my hair more as I get to warm with my mass of curly hair. I had heard so much about the TRESemme 7 day smooth system that I decided to give it a try! I wasn't expecting any miracles but the set was a bargain in Tesco so I couldn't resist!

The first day I used it i definitely felt the difference in my hair,straight after I blowdried it! It was smoother & not as frizzy,yay! I then straightened it & fell in love,it had worked! I'm not someone who washes my hair everyday as my hair doesn't need it! I was expecting my hair to get greasy very quickly with all the product i had applied but again,it suprised me & I actually went 2 days without washing it & even then it didn't reallly need to be washed,I just did it because I felt dirty! 
This time I only used the shampoo & conditioner as they state you only need to use the heat treatment once every 7 days. I was ready to apply some but again,my hair didnt need it! 
By day 5 my hair was still smooth & straight as you can see from the pictures above! 

Yesterday I washed my hair & this time applied the heat treatment which achieved smooth locks again. Next time I think I may try not using it to see if it lasts that little bit longer! 

I highly recommend this to anyone who wants smooth straight princess hair :) It honestly feels like I have just stepped out of a salon,without the dent in my bank balance! 

It looks like Tesco have stopped the deal on them now but its worth checking in-store anyway! :)

Buy these products.



Have any of you tried these products? What did you think? :)
