HAUL | #2.

hello everyone! 

I've had my blog for 9 months and this is only my second haul?! what's going on. I'll definitely have to do them more regularly. I'm really excited to share this one with you because it has a variety of content from shoes to beauty and even some fashion items. I'm scared this post will become text heavy so lets just get straight into it...

sorry about the picture quality, I can't find the charger for my camera so it was taken on my phone, everything will be shown in upcoming posts anyway.

Black boots.

I really liked the look of them on the website but they're a bit too big and they look a bit too chunky for my small feet. But my mum will probably wear them ha. The quality of the shoes seems great, especially for the price but they're just a bit too chunky for me:-(

eBay- £19.99.

Nude bodycon dress.

I've done an OOTN with this dress which you can see here, I absolutely love this dress. The material is SO thick and its such a lovely colour. Direct link to where you can buy it is in the OOTN post.

Miss luxe - £8.99.

Black liquid eye-liner.

This is and will forever be my favourite liquid eye-liner, I've tried so many other drugstore and high end liquid eye-liners and I always come back to this one and for the price, I'm definitely not complaining. They have two liquid eye-liners in Poundland, but I always go for the one in that horrible packaging.

Poundland - £1.00.

Maybelline dream matte mousse foundation.

This is my favourite drugstore favourite and my favourite high end is the MAC studio fix foundation. They don't sell my shade in dream matte mousse in store any more so I have to order it on eBay, but I use the same seller every time.

eBay - £12.84.

"Comfort bra" aka sports bra.

Since I've started working out more, I NEED a sports bra and when I went to get my liquid eye-liner, I saw these so I decided to pick one up. I haven't tried it yet but what could really go wrong?

Poundland - £1.00.

Black clutch with gold hardware.

I received this as a gift from my auntie (thank you!) and I was so pleased because black and gold are definitely my favourite colours to wear (along with grey) and I think everyone know's this about me. It's a lovely size and unlike my other clutch it has a strap so I feel like my clutch collection is complete!

Miss selfridge - unsure of the price.

Storage organiser.

I bought this so I could hang it on my bathroom door in uni as I won't have much space and I need all the storage I can get. I've already been thinking about what are my essential shower products. I shall do a post closer to the time:-)

Dress link - can't find the link but sorry.

Nike roshe trainers- junior (size 4).

I'm sooooooo happy that I bought these. Especially as I got student discount so they only came to £35 pounds. I've fo' sure getting some more. They are the comfiest shoes I own and I absolutely love the look of these. I've definitely getting all black ones so look out for that in my next haul ha.

Footasylum - £39.99.

Tribal print midi dress.

Again, this was another present by the same auntie I was talking about above. I'm going to be doing an OOTN on Friday as I am going out on Thursday and I'm definitely wearing this dress:-)

Hollister - unsure of the price.

PLEASE READ: I need to unfollow everyone then follow everyone again as bloglovin' only allows you to have 5,000 blogs to follow so I'm going through this tedious downsizing process but in a couple of days I promise I will follow you back.. sorry for the inconvenience.

BIRTHDAY | what I got.

hiya bloggers! 

happy blog mas day 21:-) 

On the 28th November, which may seem like a lifetime away but to me it seems like just yesterday.... I turned 18! It was so exciting! I began my day by receiving all my gifts which you can see in picture 2 which I thought was everything for my birthday. However after enduring a day at college (on my birthday! I know, it was painful) to make it worse, I had a law test. Then going to see The hunger games: Catching fire which was a huge let down, my parents surprised me by telling me that they had bought me a car!!! Along with my provisional so hopefully I would be on the road for university (a quick disclaimer... my car is my birthday and Christmas presents off my parents). Let me introduce you to my baby...

2004 Black KA. 

On my birthday I also received some presents from the rest of my family and friends...

A bronze dress that can go into many styles which I will be wearing on Christmas day, 18th Birthday balloon, Throntons chocolates, Moustache straws, a black clutch,  a lush gift set, a phone case, lush sweetie pie jelly, a purple iPhone lead and some touch screen gloves. I also received my parka which can be seen in this ootd and a 18th birthday wine glass.

I want to say a hugeeeeeeeeeeee thank you to everyone that got me gifts and even everyone that said happy birthday to me. I am very grateful and appreciative for everything I received!

FAVOURITES | november.

Hiya everyone!

Happy blog mas day 4:-)

 

Here are my November favourites which I've tried to make all festive with the Christmas themed wrapping paper; as I doubt I'll be doing December favourites as I'm going to be taking a blogging break after blogmas. To give me time to revise... I know, it makes me sad already but don't worry it's only going to be a two week break. So, I'll be back before you know it. Anyway... on with the favourites! 

 

 

1.Back clutch from Accessorize.
This is a sneak peek of what I was given for my birthday as this is a gift I received and I've used it every time since then and since it was my birthday and my friends and I have received some University conditional offers we've been celebrating A LOT (OOTN's to come). Anyway this clutch will be featured in my what I got for my birthday post next week, so I'll go into detail then but this is my absolute new favourite bag and my friend Laura did a great job! (thank you:-)) I know it was £25 because she cheekily left the price tag on just in case I didn't like it, but unfortunately I couldn't find it on the online site.
 

2. Tommy Hilfiger perfume.
This is an all time favourite that always seems to come out at the winter time and its running a bit low so that's definitely something I'm going to pick up in the Boxing day sales. "Tommy Hilfiger Tommy Girl is a sporty, fresh fragrance combining apple blossom and camellia with black currant with citrus tones."

Buy it here from Fragrance direct it says that It's cheaper from the Perfume shop but the packaging is different so I'm unsure if it's the same.
 

3. Head and shoulders anti dandruff shampoo.
It leaves a tingling feeling as it is described as a 'cool menthol' shampoo and once its rinsed out, it makes my hair feel squeaky clean. It makes my hair feel extra soft and I got many compliments about the smell as it made it feel very fresh!
 

4. Colour tattoo.
I've done a blog post with swatches here but I'm sure you've seen it before as it has been very popular in the blogging community. When I first purchased this item I thought it was a waste of money but every day since I've used it as it's such a beautiful shimmery champagne colour that could be used as a base or a colour on its own. Don't worry, there will be a tutorial with this product soon! But it may be closer to Christmas, so you'll have to wait a bit. It's such a beautiful colour for Christmas and it lasts for 24 hours.

Buy it here from Boots for £4.99.
 

5. Peppermint kiss hand wash.
I bet you're thinking that this is some expensive hand soap from Bath and Body works because the amazing Christmassy packaging really does make you think that way. Unfortunately, I lost the bug silver bow that came with it but it made it look extra special. I bet you're also thinking 'but I thought you didn't like Peppermint?!'... either did I! I guess its because it's a hand soap and I can tolerate it as it makes your hands smell extra fresh. The smell is amazing and for just £1 (!!!) from Pound land this amazing soap that leaves your hands moisturized afterwards is definitely worth investing in.

See you tomorrow for a men's gift guide
