- Neither of these companies really have an online presence, but thought I'd share a couple of corkers with you. Though I do think I should have got the second outfit in a smaller size....

Helllooo Helen, I'm amazed at how many videos you manage to make for us and I want you to know that your efforts are appreciated. Primark have some surprising pieces and you looked very smart in the crochet tops. Thank you. Lindsay x
Thank you Lindsay xx
Hi Helen , first of all I hope you all have a lovely time away with the family in Ireland and I hope the weather is good. Loved the crochet top over the black dress and what a bargain the placemats were. I agree that they are more practical for decoration than for actual placemats . Thoroughly enjoying all your video content as usual .xx
Thank you very much xx
I love these vlogs where you’re sharing stuff with us. And who wouldn’t be chuffed with a Bruce Bonus vid. I enjoying watching what you get and get inspired by the outfit selections.
Thanks you for taking the time to share, best regards from a committed Hel’s Belle from South Africa.
Ah, thank you xx
Hi Helen, love all the clothes you bought from Primark and you looked great in them all, I’ll have to keep an eye out for them. As for your bra straps showing you can buy some clips that clip your to straps together at the back so they don’t show, I think Bravissimo may sell them.
That's great, thank you xx
Hi Helen love the jumper it suits you very handy to slip over anything I like the little top many things are too short when your my age 64 nearly don’t want to show my tummy but there’s so many lovely tops that are short don’t know if you’ve tried but I swear by & enables me to wear short tops to make them still look classy From H& M I buy the maternity midriff belt don’t know if that’s what you call them I have black white & nude easy to wear just helps make things fit better I love them I also buy the maternity linen pants I’m not very big but got the after menopause spread if you know what I mean ha ha anyway you honestly would look nice in a paper bag love you in the black pants have a lovely Sunday x
Sounds good, thank you xx
Lovely out fits. I like the short crochet top, pity it was not longer though. Nice idea the dress under the last chrocet jumper/top. Xx
Thank you xx
Loved the linen trousers, they hung so well 😊also loved the 2nd crochet top 😊
Thank you very much xx
Hi nice to get a bonus video. Bought the rita ora cardi for a cruise in june. Sure it will be versatile. Just to let you know Primark have changed their sizing so best to try on it you can. I've gone down to a medium whilst staying the same weight but it makes me feel good. Love the crochet tops.
Thanks for the tip! I wore the cardi on Saturday it felt very nice. xx
The first top is striking and if you decide to make it longer you can. Linen blouse really lovely..trousers not so sure. That whit crochet top with lime green underneath nice and lime green trousers.
Thank you xx
Hi Helen. I really did like the 2 crochet tops but perhaps they could be a tad longer. I really wish they wouldn’t put slits on the sides of dresses or skirts as I I’m not keen on showing my legs or knees! Linen and cotton are my go to fabrics in the summer as it gets incredibly hot here in Greece so I thought the first outfit was a great choice for the spring( which I hope the U.K. gets to enjoy). Thanks for the pop up video- nice surprise! Happy birthday to your daughter too! 💖🌸
Thank you, the weather is absolutely awful here at the moment, constant rain...... xx
I managed to get the bum bum cream in Poundland in Glasgow £2.50, there's also a body spray but they didn't have any. Just watching the Primark haul and I just wanted to say that your skin is glowing!!. Love your channel x❤
Thank you very much xx
Thank you so much Helen, as I read the various comments, it is so clear that your viewers are all very positive about your choice of clothes.
Whether they love your choices or not, you really do provide so many excellent pieces to show us. Much appreciated
Thank you very much xx
I brought 6 raffia placemats from ikea and painted them grey and put them on my lighter grey dinner table in my conservatory. They look great it’s amazing just by using a little,
imagination what you can achieve. Your hair and skin look great. Xx
That sounds good.
Thank you xx
Hi Helen it,s Margaretagain I lovedthe black linen outfit as I have a similar white linen shirt that I really like. Thought I would try and source both in black, felt sure York store would have them or failing that doclick n collect. What a nightmare! I live ina small market town in Nth Yorkshire but would have to go to Glasgow for the trousersand Leeds (about one n half hrs away) for the shirt! Couldn't get them both in the same store😠 I even tried an online chat but they weren't helpful,so disappointed 😢 So I wish you well and enjoy wearing the set,I can only hope they may start stocking them in more stores, as I hadn't realised click n collect was limited to just a few stores. Luvnhugsx
Yes, it's a bit of a nightmare with Primark, more luck than anything else.
Thank you xx
I love that first outfit. The top looks very classy. The second outfit is very attractive as well. And even though the top has long sleeves, it seems it will be cool for summer with such an open weave.
Yes, I think so too xx
Love all the pieces and you could mix and match. I saw the long gold cardigan in store in derby yesterday but only being 5’2 would look like one of michael bentynes potty men 😂😂😂😂. Wished id seen the crochet top. ❤
I wore the cardi to Katie's party, I felt very swish.... haha xx
I don't know if anyone has suggested this yet, but if you wear a little black cami and tuck it into the black trousers, then if that great little top rides up, it won't expose any skin
Good idea, thank you xx
Ooo. Love the crochet cream top, going to get one to wear with long line vest top and capri denim Jeggings and trainers
Fab xx
The black dress & crochet top combo is fabulous 🎉my nearest primark is an hours drive away but it’s making we want to get in the car & go! Thanks for sharing 😊
Resist! haha xx
I need to try that cream - salted caramel flavour lol 😂. I’d never 👎 pay £30, that’s crazy. Lovely clothes. The crochet top looks great ❤I do prefer looser too. Xxxx
Thank you xx
Hi Helen. Enjoyed the video. I loved the outfits. I'm a big fan of black and white and I think they really suited you. I'm annoyed my Primark doesn't stock the Edit range even though it's a big store. X
How strange, I would have thought it would be in all their big stores xx
I like the 2 crochet style tops best , not so fond of the black shirt , it’s a bit plain but maybe with something different ? Thanks for sharing ❤
Thank you xx
Loved all the outfits, very versatile 🙂
Thank you xx
Thanks for the Brucie Bonus Helen. Liked the first outfit except the top being too short took away from it. For some reason my first impression of the crochet top was too much going on but glancing over the comments looks like I'm in the minority! Having said that, in the words of Sir Rod - you wear it well!! 😅
Thank you xx
I was in my local Primark in Kingston a few days ago and didn't see any of these items in there at all. It's a huge new store spread over 4 floors so it's not as if it is a little one.
I missed out on getting that lovely denim chambray shirt you got and have checked both online and instore and it's always sold out. Amazing how you always find great things but I can never seem to get them.
I used to love shopping in Kingston. Surprised they haven't got these. Thank you xx
I’ve had table mats like that but a bit darker for 20 years. You can scrub them clean and they are fine
Good to know xx
The 1st outfit is the BEST outfit I've EVER seen you in. The black pants and shirt are BEAUTIFUL on you as is the cutaway vest beneath. This outfit took my breath away. I did not like the white crochet top at all on you but the dress beneath was extremely fetching and shoes as well as loafers look GREAT, as opposed to the eternal trainers LOL! The dress was truly lovely. I don't know what you could match it with as its quite see-through but it looks ADORABLE. I think its the best shop you've ever made. Go Primark!!!
Oh wow. Thank you xx
I liked the long sleeved crochet top but the next size down I would get. Useful to go with lots of outfits. Thank you for sharing Helen. x
Thank you xx
HB. Yes the white crochet top over the black dress looks great.Also like the black pants. I always say if you fiddle with something - DONT buy it as you'll always be fiddling!😂 Black shirt drowned you! Good luck with the birthday cake xx
I think you're right xx
Love the outfits you look stylish in these and I am so impressed with primary prices the white jumper is beautiful! Thank you Helen I love your videos xx
Thank you very much xx
Liked everything. I bet my nearest Primark won't have the same things. I will go and investigate. Thanks for showing us. ❤
You have to look carefully, it's true xx
Tha crochet top looks perfect, hope they do them in all stores! X
I hope so too xx
Or lime green top underneath lace cardigan and white trousers. The skirt not so sure.
Thank you xx
Hello again , I’m doing a “you” and going off piste with a question
As you are the queen of silk 😊 do you have any tips to stop a silk dress clinging ? It’s a slip dress and clings to my legs someone said moisturise but I’m afraid to stain it ?
Only two answers I can think of and that is to use fabric softener in the wash and a slip under it, but that many not work if it's slinky.... I haven't had that problem to be honest. xx
The crochet top over the dress is better larger . The black shirt would have looked better with a larger collar..As the little top under would have been better an inch or so longer.. Trousers and dress ok… I was away for nearly 3 weeks with a medium case and keeping with colours black/white and navy… Coat wise I had a nice black raincoat (if you’ve one with detachable hood, good) which I wore over every thing . I did take a blue one , but never wore it.. I have gone away with a small case for 1 week, with same colour ways ..either black/white or navy/white , with maybe 1 colour jumper added .. keeping to one colour way helps with shoes etc.. 1 flat 1 with heel… Have a lovely time in Dublin . Did this with my mother’s 70th (She is now 91) as she is Irish and born in Dublin.. Took her to the Guinness factory (for my husband 🙄) when they heard was mum’s birthday they stopped serving and got everyone to sing Happy Birthday , giving her a free drink , which of course hubby gladly helped her…she doesn’t really drink.. but all fun…
Fabulous on every level. I used to work at the Guinness factory many, many years ago. I was in PR and I hated the stuff so I had to pretend to sip it for photos etc. Haha xx
Hell O
Well hot footed it down to Primark this morning as I really fancied the wee black and white top, but to no avail, either my Primark shop doesn’t get much stock or it disappears like ‘sna aff a dyke’ , however I did get a previous Edit silky blouse for a fiver! Keep doing what you do - I enjoy your ‘ wee natters’ . Take care x Cathie
Oh well, just think of the money you saved! haha xx
Loved the linen trousers and shirt but I don’t think you’ll be happy with the short black and white top - lovely as it is. Thanks for the video. X
I think you're right xx
Hi Helen, love a Brucey Bonus!! I liked the crochet jumper, with a tan it will look fab. the trousers were a lovely fit but not keen on the shirt. I thought very manly with the trousers as well…..sorry. You are always thinking about your videos and bring us a wide range of clothing and household goods which I appreciate. Along with some funny stories along the way which I enjoy very much. Have a good weekend xx
Thank you and you xx
Really love your videos Helen ❤ You have such a calming, fun nature, and make me feel that it’s ok to embrace my Size 18 body. You always look so beautiful. Thank you for brightening my day! 🌼💛☀️
Thank you so much! xx
Love the crochet top,just wish it was a bit longer, ❤
Yes, then it would be very versatile xx
I would rushe up the sleeves with that elastic trick....more wrist. And personally, I think its too big (the black linen shirt)
Yes, I agree xx
Thanks Helen for sharing your haul. Fingers 🤞 crossed Exeter Primark has the same stock. 😊❤
Good luck xx
Hi Helen. Loved the dress with the crochet top - looked great on you. I also prefer the name bum bum cream 😂 x
Haha, thank you xx
Ive bought cotton jumpers recently. They all seem on short side with long baggy sleeves! Love the linen trousers outfit on you. Unusual top.
Thank you xx
I bought a crochet jumper from Tesco . It makes me look bigger . Think it’s the stripes.
Oh.... xx
Lovely outfits…im trying lots of linen and trying to leave it natural after washing and hang trying….oh…I want the starch …trying , lol
Haha xx
Think a plain white vest would look better with black suit x
Thank you xx
I think the black linen looks way more expensive than Primark! Nice find Helen
Thank you xx
You do make me laugh helen😊you are breath of fresh air ❤, I'll look forward to seeing you style your own clothes as I would appreciate some ideas as I seem to wear the same clothes all the time and I have 3 wardrobes of clothes to pick from, help is required😀❤
It's a good exercise for me to be fair xx
Hi Helen. Like everything. The crochet top would look lovely with the famous white skirt with a white cami underneath. Size is good on you.
Great idea!! xx
The white top with white linen trousers
Thank you xx
Janice you beat me to it :0) Helen I love your videos when I come home from work, grab a cuppa and put my feet up... Thank you and much love from a Hells Belle in Poole xx

Wow Helen loved both outfits in particular the little vest and the crochet top was fab with the v neck. Wow so wish we had a primark here in Australia. Is your Mum getting excited about going to Ireland Thanks as always
Thank you. Mum doesn't really get excited any more.... haha. But I think she's looking forward to it. xx
First outfit is the best.
Thank you xx
Oh Helen you cracked me up when you were talking about the cake 🎂! “ You will have a cake ! “ hilarious love the crochet top xxx ❤
Haha, kids eh. Big kids, big problems! xx
@@Helenmaryjo Totally agree with that statement Helen ! xxx
Hello Helen, nice surprise to get another video so quickly, please may I ask what colour/make your nail polish is today, it’s a really lovely colour. Thank you Liz x
Thank you. I get 'dipping nails' done at the local nail bar, so colour as such, but they are a very soft pale rose pink xx
Loved both outfits, can’t believe they are primark😊
Always worth looking, often some goodies to be had xx
Like both crochet tops but waaay too short. Shirt and trousers look good. x
Yes, a shame really xx
Liked the crochet tops. Not so keen on black shirt. Maybe different colour.
Thank you xx
Second crochet top looked fabulous. You should keep it ❤ xxx
Thank you xx
Hi Helen, I think both outfits look lovely on you xx
Thank you so much xx
LOVE LOVE LOVE THE WHITE CROCHET SWEATER (JUMPER?) BUT ONE SIZE TOO BIG???
The white crochet top looks good on you
Loved dress and crochet top ❤
Thank you xx
Like them all. All versatile pieces to slip in to your wardrobe.x
If there was room! haha xx
Looks lovely helen dress and jumper, black shirt nice and the top x
Thank you xx
Is there anything that doesn’t look good on you!!😂
I prefer clothes to be a bit bigger rather than snug or too tight, then if there is some shrinkage it won’t be too small…
I also don’t like to look like I’m a sausage stuffed into a casing…😂😂😂
Haha, thank you xx
Hi Helen…I’m first!
Your foundation is looking lovely..are u still using the Dior?
X
Thank you, it's not Dior in this video. I can't remember the name, but I'll share with you soon xx
Thankyou!
Hi Helen thanks for the haul. Really like the white crochet top😊 x
Thank you xx
❤LOVE the crochet top -- its GORGEOUS!!!!!
Thank you xx
I would love to see the difference between the knock off BumBum creme and the original, i adore it and love the scent. I met a
lady today who just got back from England she visited Weymouth, is that close to you? She has been living here in Canada for half a century, but she is from there. I love the placemats so cute. The necklace is gorgeous and i love it with the black and cream top.
I have no idea on the difference, but I'm not prepared to pay what they ask.
Weymouth is about an hour from me.
Thank you xx
@@Helenmaryjo Oh that is so cool only one hour. Yes i spend alot of money on perfumes and lotions to go with it.
Both tops are really lovely on you and amazing for the price.Hope you get sunshine in Ireland. 🎉😀
I hope so too!
Thank you xx
Both outfits looked great Helen. Every time you wave to us HB I always find myself shouting Hello and waving back. 🤣🤣
Ah, that's lovely xx
I want the crocheted top you need to keep it and it looks fab on you. But unfortunately i live over the pond. lol.
Haha, thank you xx
You looked really good in all the pieces.
Thank you xx
