New store openings in Maremagnum

Last Sunday I visited Maremagnum for the first time in a while. Maremagnum, is a shopping centre by Barcelona harbour, which is open almost everyday of the year which is great if you feel like shopping on Sundays.

To my surprise I saw that they had opened some new stores in the centre.


Firstly, the have opened a new Blanco store, which was small but nice. They even had many things on sale still.


Secondly, I discovered that they have opened a Shana store, which to my knowledge is the second store in Barcelona (the other bigger Shana store you will find in Portal d'Angel).
Shana is from the same group as Friday's Project, but low-cost. You will find prices on the lines of Primark - very affordable clothing...
The store in Maremagnum is small, nevertheless they got some things especially economical basics.

Rebajas!!

The biannual sales (rebajas) started in Spain the first of July. As they have done the last couple of years, they started strong with 50-70% of discounts in many shops already from the first day.
Now the 3rd week of sales, many places are already doing 3rd rebajas, which means that they have discounted their things for the third time.

All though I didn't wanted to spend a lot of money after coming home quite broke from NY, there was some things that I needed and thanks to the sales were more or less affordable.


I really needed a pair of comfortable high heel shoes, both for work and going out. I had already spotted these black leather shoes with open toe from Geox before the sales, but with a 30% discount they were a bit more interesting. Apart from looking really good on, they are really comfortable!
They were 120€ before the sales and now 84€.



I really needed a new bag too, but I havn't really fallen in love with any yet, so in the mean time, I found this brown bag in Blanco. It was 13 euros and with a 70% discount I paid 3,90 euros.

Birthday presents

I have been quite busy lately with moving to a new apartment. As Carrie said in SATC 2, "sorry I havn't been here lately, I have been cheating on fashion with furniture"

But even though I have been to busy to shop lately, it has still been my birthday and I got some nice presents.




Nice white summer sandals from Blanco


Dress with dots (love dots!) from H&M

Since they are presents I obviously don't know the prices.

I am going to New York next week and expect to catch up big time on my lack of shopping there! To be continued...
