August haul

Hello everyone! I hope you're all well.

So I went shopping today with my mum and sister and I most certainly shopped til I could have dropped. I bought a few things that I've really wanted for some time now and a few other little bits too. 

I'll start with Primark. I was a little disappointed with some of the things in Primark at the moment, nothing was really jumping out at me screaming 'BUY ME' although I did pick up a basic grey cami top for £2.50. 

It's a basic wardrobe staple and I could pair it with jeans, shorts or even tucked into a skater skirt or something. Plus it was such a steal at £2.50!! 

Next I'll show the things I got in Lush. I'm feeling a bit low and in need of a pamper so skipped into the store and picked up three bath bombs. 

The first one I picked up was Butterball. 

This one is great if you suffer with dry or sensitive skin, it contains cocoa butter which is good to soothe and soften the skin leaving it feeling silky soft. It also contains the essential oil Ylang Ylang which is a great relaxant dealing with stress and depression. 

I also picked up Fizzbanger. 

I picked this one up nearly wholly based on the bold, vibrant yellow colour too it. It has an amazing apple and cinnamon smell as well as containing popping candy as well! I've never used it before but it sounds like it'll make lots of fizz and bubbles!

Lastly I picked up Twilight. 

I've never tried this one before but it looked pretty and pink so I wanted to try it. It contains lavender oil and Ylang Ylang oil releasing a sweet and floral scent. These both are also calming and soothing essential oils so will leave me feeling relaxed. 

Next in Superdrug I picked up something I've really wanted to get for quite some time now and seen quite a lot of good reviews about. 

I'm really into the contoured look and would love to give it a go. After looking into which would be the best palette or set to get this one came out on top. I'm really looking forward to trying this, I'll post a review on it too! 

Next H&M. Probably my favourite shop on the high street. I can usually always go in here and find something reasonably priced that I like. 

I got this flannel shirt. I like wearing them over a black dress, I think they look quite cool but casual.

I also picked up a similar flannel shirt as I really like them. H&M fabric always feels really nice and the shirts fit nicely too. 

I got this oversized jumper for £7. It looks really cosy and I picked up one in a size bigger than my usual for a looser fit.

I got this cami vest. It is blue cami with a flower pattern. Around the top it has some lace which I thought looked cute. 

I think this would look nice with jeans and sandals. 

Lastly I got this blue and white ruffle cami top. Unless you haven't noticed I'm really loving cami tops at the moment! I thought the ruffle style was a bit different and the pattern is really cute too. 

It has a quirky spotty pattern to it and would look nice paired with some white or light blue jeans I think. 

Lastly, John Lewis. This product is something I've used before and will probably stay with me for the rest of my life. 

This is the Viktor and Rolf Flowerbomb perfume. I got one for Christmas two years ago and there is a small amount left and I wanted to get some more. I absolutely adore this scent, so much so if I was rich I would bathe in it. The bottle is shaped like a grenade linking into the name and has beautiful sweet notes to it like vanilla, patchouli, jasmine and rose. It is my go-to scent and you can wear it day or night. 

John Lewis also kindly threw in some sample perfumes like Chloé Chloe perfume, Chloé Rose and the Roberto Cavalli perfume too. 

Thanks for reading, I hope you liked this post! Love, A x. 

Boots,Superdrug and New Look haul

Hi you! 

My shopping bags and my H&M handbag.

So I went shopping today and I wasn't going to spend a lot of money as I'm (keyword here) supposed to be saving money. Well that certainly didn't go to plan. As soon as I see the word 'sale' or 'buy one get one free' etc my mind goes "Buy. Buy it now!".

Also in my defence it was raining really heavily so I was kind of forced into buying stuff right?? Erm someone back me up here.. 

So I'll start with Boots!

I got a baby pink lip liner pencil from Barry M costing £2.99.

Bourjois pencil sharpener as I don't have one and it cost £2.49 and its a pretty colour too!

 I don't know if Boots have got a new beauty line in or I just never noticed Sinful Colours before but they have a fantastic and massive line of nail varnishes for £1.99 and I picked up a few (five..oops)

This is really cool metalic burgundy shade called Dancing Nails. Super cute!

Same as above.

I really like this shade of pink it's not too garish and it has a kinda matte look to it. It's called  Pink Forever.  

Same as above.

I really like this shiny metallic purple colour. I think it's  fun and I don't own anything like it . This one is called Let's Talk.

Same as above.

This polish is a similar shade to the one above but its a lot more glittery and pretty. It's called  Frenzy.

Same as above.

I think this metallic white shade is really cool  and there is a kind of 'Mother of Pearl' feel about it. This shade is called Tokyo Pearl.

Same as above.

 SUPERDRUG!!

These are so handy and I just ran out of them  but in Superdrug they had  2 for 1 or some sort of similar offer on.

I bought these for £1.99 I've used them before and they are so simple to use and they work really well. I'd 100% recommend them!

I got this MUA mascara for a pound (what a bargain!!) I'll do a review on them soon.

I've seen these Baby Lips moisturisers all over the bloggersphere and wanted to get one and see what they're like! There is a buy one get one half price on all Maybeline products so I got two!  

I got the clear minty one above and this pink coloured one. The Baby Lips  moisturisers cost £2.99.

I got this Collection 2000 gel eyeliner  for £4.99 I've never tried it before so am looking forward to trying it!

I used up some of my superdrug points on this L'oreal eyeliner which  is my favourite. It costs £6.49  but I think it's totally worth it.

I also got this MUA lisptick in a light pink colour for £2.

The colour doesn't show up that well but i'll do a post on it soon and hopefully it'll show the colour better.

New Look

I got this black and white geometric jumper for £11. I really liked the pattern on it and I bought it in  a bigger size because I love wearing comfy baggy jumpers in the Winter.

This is the geometric pattern on the jumper.

I got this black A line skirt for £7. It has a cool flowery embossed print on it.

Close up of the embossed print.

I picked up this sleeveless white shirt for £8. I think that it will come in handy as I could wear it tucked into a skirt, with jeans or with a jumper over it. 

I also got this white t shirt that has a crocodile print style material.  This cost £9.

It also has a little zip feature on it. 

Thanks for reading, I hope you liked it! Love, a x
