LUSH Goodies and Mini Reviews | Beauty

Hey everyone :)

This week I FINALLY went to LUSH (yay!). I've been to the one in Cardiff but we didn't have much time and the shop was quite small, so this time I was determined to have a proper look in the bigger shop in Carmarthen. 

Mini Beauty Haul | Beauty

Hello :)

As mentioned in my previous post, I recently went shopping and picked up a few beauty products and also received a late Christmas present (don't worry Nanna, I forgive you).

After hearing one of my favorite vloggers, Tanya Burr , rave about this mascara on her YouTube channel I just had to try it out. It's Maybelline's The Falsies mascara and I got the limited edition 'Black Drama' one. I got it for £4.99 in Superdrug and so far I'm really loving it! (Let me know below if you'd like a review).

Yes..I fell for the hype. I've seen so many bloggers going nuts over these little pots and I have to say, I was intrigued. I never usually go for cream eyeshadow because they're annoying as hell to apply and crease like a mofo. But I REALLY love this. I got the shade On and On Bronze, a shimmery neutral that I knew I'd get the most use out of. I used it for a tutorial today and it hasn't come off yet - result! (For those wondering, this was £4.99 in Superdrug).

I'd never known that Accessorize had a makeup line! I was instantly pulled in by the floral designs and bright colours and decided to go well out of my comfort zone (one of my new year's resolutions). I never wear bright bold colours when it comes to makeup, but when I saw this palette I fell in love. As you can see from the picture, I've done lots of experimenting with the glitters. It was maybe slightly overpriced at £13... I'm not sure it's worth it to be honest as some of the colours aren't that pigmented.

Next is a late Christmas present from my Nanna, but it was definitely worth the wait. I've never really been into perfumes and always went for the impulse sprays, but I've been keen to start wearing perfume more often. This Ted Baker 'W' eau de toilette is perfect for me - it's sweet, slightly floral but not too sophisticated. I love the triangular bottle and the pink looks really pretty on my desk. It's £46 for 100 ml and is definitely a contender for my new signature scent :)

This last item isn't exactly beauty related, but I HAD to include it in a post. I got this Charlie Chaplin style phone case from Ebay for only  £3.99 and I absolutely love it. The design is so fun and quirky and I've had loads of compliments on it. They have loads of different colours if you fancy taking a look!

So that's it for my mini-haul :) If you enjoyed this post please follow my blog and feel free to say hello in the comments. I like doing little mini hauls of things I've picked up during the month and if you do too let me know.

Vintage Print Jeans | Fashion

Hello :) 

I recently went shopping and bought a few beauty products (which will also be featured in a blog post soon), but while wandering around Tk Maxx I came across the 'MOD' section. I'd never really had a look in this section before, but basically it has loads of vintage looking pieces and cool band t-shirts. I came across these jeans and fell in love with them instantly.

They're acid-wash and have almost a 'jegging' feel to them - they are quite thin and stretchy but still very warm. I love the floral print on them and I like that these are a statement piece without being too dramatic.

£16.99, Tk Maxx

These jeans are super comfy and perfect for summer. I can't wait to wear them this S/S13.

Hope you enjoyed this post :) If you did please follow this blog for more fashion and lifestyle posts.

My Favourite Autumn Accessories ¦ 2012

I've been loving accessories this summer, and on my birthday I had at least 10 bracelets given to me (not complaining at all!) so I thought I'd share with you some of my favourites for this season - and a few that I got for my birthday :)



This summer I've really been loving surf bracelets. The straw one is a gift from Menorca but the wooden-beaded one is from Fat Face. I think these look really casual and cool for when you don't want to put much effort in, but may not translate into Autumn. Still, there's no reason you can't stock up for next year :)

I got this cute little string bracelet from Internacionale. It ties in with the gothic trend with the little skulls but isn't OTT. They have loads of cute little bracelets like these on offer, so get down there now while you can!



 I love quirky earrings and thought that these unicorns were really cute and unique. I got these in a pack from Next for around £7 which is amazingly cheap, and they really are good quality. The pack also included some Shells, Seahorses and Horse Shoes. I love them all :)

So that's it for my faavourite accessories at the moment. I've also been loving my Nomination charm bracelet but I'm going to be doing a whole post on it soon so keep checking back :)
