New Stationary Bits & Giveaway

It's that time of the year again where people are going back to school, starting University or maybe you're just a lover of stationary who embraces every new stationary opportunity like me?!?

I am the second one although I am a lover of new stationary too!

As most of you know by now I'm starting Uni in a couple of weeks so amongst all the 'Freshers' planning and frantic ticket buying, I thought I should probably get some stationary for the year too. 

Off I popped down to Tiger & Primark to get my stationary supplies...

Ahh colourful stationary why are you so pretty?

Okay so for my Uni course I don't really know what exactly I need because I haven't had a list or anything but I thought I'd buy things that I know I would definitely use - It's not everyday you get free rein on stationary buying?!?

Lets start with the basics- everyone needs a notebook right? 

I thought this sized one from Tiger was perfect! It's a bit smaller then A4 sized but I wanted somewhere I could jot down lecture notes in. 

The A4 folder next to the notebook is also from Tiger, currently I don't really know what I am going to use it for. I just like the design & the colours together so I brought it. I'm thinking it might be good for holding important bits of paper when I'm on the move between classes...

Both items were like a £1-2 each which I think is really good value!

Again this is from Tiger for only £1,

I picked it up because I don't know how much writing I'll be doing so I thought at least I have a spare note pad to see me through the first couple of weeks.

It's not as colourful & pretty as the other but still it will do the job. 

Some people love notebooks, others love bullet journals- I love post-stick notes!

I honestly don't think I could love these any more even if I tried.

I love how each one is a different colour & says a different thing like 'To do' or 'Read again', I just think they'll make life so much easier!

These were only a £1 from Tiger and I would have happily paid more because I think they're gonna be a life saver!

No stationary haul is complete without a jazzy, new pencil case.

Again I don't know how many pens & equipment I'll need but I liked the size of this one from Gabby's range in Primark. 

The colour is super cute & I love the 'XOXO' lettering on the front. 

This was £2 which I think is an absolute bargain!

What can I say?!? I'm so determined to make every bit of my stationary super cute & adorable!

I think everything in this set will be so handy and it will just help with organising all of my notes.

Again I love the design of this and it will go very nicely in my pencil case...

This was also from Gabby's range in Primark, sold for £5.
