Afternoon!!!
What a horrible weather day it is today where I am. It's grey, wet but that just makes everything cosier.
It's Sunday, we are allowed to chill, eat crap and watch awful television.
I am so excited because tomorrow I am in London for London Fashion Week at a blogger's event. I literally cannot wait. I have planned my outfit, makeup and hair. I am one of those people anyway who plans things way in advance. I will soon be planning my birthday and that's not until August. Ha. Yep, I am THAT girl.
I am switching it up today and presenting you guys with a huge haul. The things that I have been buying have been collected over the last couple of months. As you know (if you have read my previous posts) I am on the job hunt so currently I am having to be careful on what I am spending.
There are some fashion and beauty bits as well as other miscellaneous items. There is sooo much I currently want at the moment it's mad. I swear my mind knows that I don't have a job because right now I am seriously craving a massive shopping trip. Grrrr.
I hope you like what I have bought and maybe you might spot some things you like yourself.
I bought this cute makeup/wash bag from Primark. I liked it because it matched the colour scheme of my bedroom, it's super cute and big enough to put some of my makeup in. I think this was around £3.
I bought a few of these t-shirts from Primark because I am currently 'trying something out'. These are men's t-shirts and I love the oversized look so that's why I got an 'XL' as it hangs better. This was £2.50.
Again, these black skinny jeans are from Primark. I mainly get my jeans from New Look because they always fit me perfectly. I bought these so I can customise them myself. I want to rip the crap out of them, they are around £7-8 so you can't really go wrong.
This makeup bag is so freaking cute. I love everything about it. It's from H & M and I love the fact it's a nude blush pink in a patent fabric and it's big enough for my carry about makeup. This was £4.99, they also have it in black too.
Mason 'Love Heart' jar from Tiger. £2.
This top coat polish is gorgeous, I have been using it on it's own without any polish underneath as it's really buildable. I love anything sparkly and this hits the spot. This is in a gold shade, I also have it in silver. £4.99.
This shade was always sold out in Superdrug, so I purchased the gold version first, then when I found this I had to grab it. This is from Model Own's 'Chrome' range and this is obviously their copper shade. I will be honest, I am not as impressed as I thought I would be, I think I expected it to be more like the packaging. A girl can dream. £4.99.
I love Real Techniques brushes a lot. I now have the Nanshy brushes too which I haven't used yet but currently Real Techniques are my go-to. I love copper/rose gold and this brush is awesome. I also have their 'crease' brush in their 'Bold Metals' collection too. £22.
Real Techniques 'Core' collection. £21.
Soap & Glory 'Eyes Box' £18.
New Look purse £14.99
Love a Yankee candle. :)
This is seriously cute, I am actually looking for a card holder similar to this but I saw this and thought that this was the next best thing. New Look, £3.99.
Oh what's this?! Another Yankee candle? Yes it is!!! Ha. I got this in the sale it was half price. I found this tricky because in their store they also had one that actually smelt like Christmas Trees and it was a toss between that smell and this one. I had been searching high and low for a candle that smelt like 'Christmas' and couldn't find it, I then find it but because Christmas was nearing it's end I thought it would be weird to burn it in the new year. So I went for this one. I love this smell, cinnamon is my fave. £12.
I have suddenly become addicted to buying Urban Decay's pallets. I always swore that I would NEVER spend almost £40 on a pallet but I got their smoky one for Christmas (which I still haven't used as it's too pretty) and I had some Christmas money that I had saved so I bought the Naked 2 (which again, I haven't used yet). I 100% want the Naked 1 as it is a lot warmer and I feel that suits my skin tone more. £38.
"Got a secret, can you keep it?!" It's no secret that I am a fan of Pretty Little Liars and I love reading, so why not get the book. £6.99.
I saw a trailer of the 'The Mortal Instruments' film and it looked pretty good. I am a fan of Jamie too so again a good buy for me.
I love rose gold and this cute little wallet is to die for. I don't know what I will use this for yet but I am sure it will get its use. I got it from Accessorize in a sale for around £4. I did buy some sterling silver midi rings too but they went a weird brassy colour which it shouldn't of gone, so I had to take them back.
This cute little ring is from Topshop, again I picked this up in a sale. It was £20 and I got it for £10. It's sterling silver too which is awesome.
I re-purchased some of my essential beauty products. Y'all have seen those before somewhere on this blog. Ha.
Okay, right so the ear cuff situation, I cannot for the life of me work out how on earth they sit on my ear. They keep falling off. Can anyone please shed some light?! I got those from Topshop too.
Topshop are also selling these cute necklaces and there are quite a few to choose from. There are one's for luck and power etc. I chose this one because I was drawn to it more. As you can see this was also in a sale so I think it was around £5.
All the above clothing items are from New Look. I cannot actually remember how much each item was, so I do apologise.
I wanted a camel 'waterfall' coat for a while now and I found this and it was the last one in my size, so I grabbed it. At the time of trying it on I thought it looked really cool. Now I am a little unsure if it actually suits me.
The black lace shirt is so beautiful. I love things like that, a little different and unique. I thought it would look lovely when you're transitioning from Spring to Summer.
And finally, I love a bit of leather (this is faux leather, I never wear real leather) and this dress teamed with a long sleeved white tee and military boots would look super cool.
Always think ahead.
I did buy some Lush products too but I couldn't wait and had to use them. I bought one of my favourites 'Razzle Dazzle' and I got given a bomb too.
I hope you enjoyed seeing what I have bought and I will see you in my next post.
Love
