What I bought this week

Here are some photos of what I bought this week :)

I popped into Primark on Thursday:

This top was only £3 and a copy of a Topshop tee in store at the moment
I bought it in size 18 so I can have it baggy and wear it more like a dress.

£5
Now I've got this top home I'm not sure if I want to keep it! I mainly got it because it had a cross and leopard print - two of my favourite things!

River Island sale!

Love this dress! It's a similar style to my tartan dress and it was less than half price which is another reason why I love it! I wanted a mint green peter pan blouse in River Island too but there was just one left and it was all marked! :( 

Two things I've been wanting for a while! Proactiv Solution and YSL False/volume effet mascara!
I looked in so many Boots and had to order the Proactiv online, I had to spend 1 penny to get free delivery -__-  So I ended up getting the mascara too, oops!

Proactiv - £39.99
YSL mascara - £23

Reviews coming soon once I've tried them out a bit!



My mum bought me the above Jones + Jones dress, it doesn't look much hanging up but it's so much better on, I love Jones + Jones so much!



The above dress, my Dad bought for my Mum but it didn't fit - it comes up so small, it's a large and fits like a size 8 - so I kept it haha!
It's SO bright but I thought it would be really nice for my holidays in the summer plus I'm always wearing very bright clothes anyway!

Zara



My boyfriend bought me this phone case, I LOVE IT!
Just scared I'll drop it and break it now, it's so nice :)

I bought this Urban Outfitters top from SoTotallyVlog/Fashion Filth  for £10 off of eBay
I've been after this top for ages but thought it was too expensive so was so happy with the price I got it at!

Review: Avon SuperShock gel eyeliner pencil

I really need to practice doing eyeliner, I'm so bad at putting it on! I can never do a thin line and I need a steadier hand.

I started using Avon SuperShock Eyeliner in January, it was recommended to me by my mum and I'm loving it! Although some people say you cannot do your make up without eyeliner, I disagree. I only tend to wear it on the odd occasion (I need more practice with putting it on better)
So if you are one of those people who cannot live without your eyeliner, try this one.

It's like a gel eyeliner, but instead of using a brush to put it on it's a like a pencil so its much easier. It's soft and comes out so well theres no need for multiple coats like with some pencil eye liners.

However only downside is I noticed it smudged and rubbed off easily but did stay in tact for hours if it was left untouched!

Below is a very weird picture of me wearing the eyeliner holding up my beloved Topshop moustache ring.



You can buy the eyeliner here for £6, Avon recently had an offer for £3 so keep checking!

I got mine for £6 and it came with the new SuperShock Avon mascara which you must try! It doesn't clump and gives you long dark lashes. I used to use two mascaras to get this look but with this find you can have it in one.

Other eyeliners I recommend:
  • Sleek gel eyeliner
  • Maybelline eyeliner (A make up artist once told me this was her favourite eyeliner to use!)

Kettle Mag

I've recently started writing for Kettle Mag, here the link to my first article posted :)

http://www.kettlemag.com/article/eurovision-song-contest-lets-drink-its-success

Boohoo.com

I've never ordered off Boohoo before but I'm tempted! I found some really great items at amazing prices for summer on my daily browse on fashion websites!
Here's some photos of things I found that I'm loving!

(I think I do have an unusual taste in clothes so these might not be to everyones liking!)

Everything is between £12-25 and comes in a range of colours.







Not sure how I feel about the outfit above. These outfits seem to be in fashion right now and in this picture the outfit looks so nice but I'm not sure if I can pull it off and feel confident enough - although I'm always wearing bright clothes - to wear something this brightly coloured and patterned!

I probably wouldn't usually choose something like the dress above but for £12, it would be great for nights out, even if it is a in your face!




Love these shorts, I just wish they were longer!

 They had this bag in a lovely lilac colour but it's sold out now!
Not sure if I like this dress or not!?

Shopping this weekend & Outfit of the week

Back home from uni on saturday and I went shopping with my mum, were I managed to get two things from my recent wish lists!

Here are some photos of my outfit that day.




Shoes - Topshop
Dress - Not sure, I bought this in a  one off shop in Manchester but they sell it on boohoo.com haha!
Jacket - ASOS
Bag - H&M

The cross ring, belt ring and snake ring came in a 4 pack from Topshop (along with a blue stone ring)
Moustache ring - Topshop
Studded bracelet - Primark mens
Peace bracelets - ASOS
Pandora bracelet 


Studded bag - Select

Never normally shop in Select but they actually have some good quality cheap stuff!

2X leggings for £8 - amazing!
Haven't tried them on yet though...


Been after this Topshop highlighter for months and I finally got it and I'm so impressed! You only have to out a tiny bit on your brush and it highlights so well! I put a little bit too much on at first as I underestimated it!
I love the Topshop makeup range, the prices aren't too bad and so far I've tried the nail pens, glow cream, highlighter, lipstick, eye shadow and eye crayon. I can't wait to try more, it's probably my favourite make up range.
Highlighter - £8


 Finally got this top I've been wanting too! It's a bit see through in the middle though so I'll have to wear a black skirt or something underneath!
£22


Been after frilly socks for my creepers and these were the best I could find.
£3.50

My week in photos!

Here are some instagrams - my obsession - and other photos from my week ! :) Hope I don't bore you, this is turning from a fashion & beauty blog to a diary!


Last sunday, I had no water at home from 5:30am to 10:30pm so there was a van giving out water. Thankfully I have my boyfriend who brought around water and Sarah who went on the search for water - it sold out in the local area - and brought me homemade shortbread to keep me alive. Thanks guys!



I saw The Devil Inside, although it was kind of scary and "Connect the cuts" still haunts me and the ending was well, a huge disappoint, I really did enjoy it and I want to see it again!?

Saw this on the floor at Bluewater, embarrassed my boyfriend by taking a photo - should be used to it by now the amount I take ;) - but wanted to take a photo because well I love Kingston :P
 I went to the cinema again on Tuesday as 02 Priorty moments has a deal where it is 40% off a ticket - although I don't have 02 so I wasn't the one who got the discount :( But thankfully I have a NUS card !
21 Jump street was good, cannot believe how different Jonah Hill looks! The film was so good and the end was actually so gripping and dramatic.
 Wednesday I went to Wimbledon after uni and went to my two favourite places. NANDOS and WETHERSPOONS! Just two more stamps and I get a whole free chicken!
I go to Nandos at least once a week and Wetherspoons about three times a week?
I think I am the reason Nandos, Wetherspoons, National Rail and Topshop can carry on trading, that's where all my money seems to go!
 I discovered the "Draw something' iPhone app monday, but it finally started working on my phone wednesday night and here are some print screens of the game. I'm addicted, it's my new temple run!
I'm rubbish at drawing, the photo below is actually one of my best - surprisingly!
 I love peace signs so loved this one my friend Sarah drew :)
I tried out the 17 nail varnish below yesterday, not a fan. It chipped in less than 24 hours.
 The most amazing chocolate you will ever have. 99p, Lidl.
 An interview I got for the Olympics London 2012, I ended up not accepting in the end though!
My shoes on Friday, possibly a little OTT for some...

 I wanted to go to this! I was a bit lazy this weekend though and didn't end up going, I hope I didn't miss anything good!
 My Rihanna top I bought at her tour in December, wore it for the first time on Friday.
 Having a glass of sparkling rose with my mum and dad on Saturday night.
 I love sparkling rose! :) Aw a little easter present for me (the duck filled with marshmallows)
 Ben's cat, aww <3
 I like this picture, thought it looked cool ;)
A shot of pineapple sourz in the shot glass I brought back from Vienna in January.
