Did we follow our own shopping advice?

Well Brain and I are no strangers to the city of Dublin! It is my favourite shopping destination so far. I can find good clothes, with great prices and drink a pint of Bulmers at the end of the day to celebrate (usually wearing my recent purchases)!

First off I'd like to mention that we DID NOT start our shopping in Penny's/Primark!(yeah hi 5 to us) We were walking around in Henry Street (an area famous for shops) and decided to pop over to the Jervis Shopping Centre and it was there that I spotted a Sale sign in a Diesel shop! Bam!! I got a pair of kinky red straight leg Diesel Jeans for EUR40. 

We also spotted Forever 21 but I'm sorry to say I was not impressed with this shop. I was disappointed that most of the clothes in the Sale section were torn or just distasteful I prefer H&M (price wise it is pretty similar). 

After (some Visa card issues which disrupted our shopping) we headed over to St Stephen's Green Shopping Centre where we always pop over to Swamp! However this also proved to be a rather big disappointment; the Sale section was rather empty and dull and the new stock fell flat! 

Brain and I were gob smacked! It was then that I remembered TK-Maxx is also located there, so we popped over! And amongst the racks I spotted a spiked shoulder, teal, faux leather jacket!! A true bargain at EUR16! I Love it!! Please note I spotted it in two other shops at a much higher place but in black! 

Walking down Grafton street with my happy purchases I spotted Barratt's! I had discovered Barratt's while living in Dublin, 4 years ago! I looked at Brain, who smiled and followed me in! I saw the cutest pair of red satin ankle boots, with a polka dot heel and a black bow on the side and the price tag was a mind boggling EUR12!!

I had to try them on! Lucky me they even had my size! BUT they were so bloomin' uncomfortable! My legs were swearing so I maturely opted for a polka dotted wedge of the same brand. At EUR20 they are decently comfortable and more practical! 

So in some ways we did stick to our shopping tips! Mind you we did overspend on certain things and we did get some pretty good deals on others! 

What do you think Brain? Shall we go again ?
