Birmingham buys ♥

Dear Readers,

So this post was supposed to be published on Sunday butttttt I've been terribly tired/busy to take and upload pictures onto my laptop to show you guys some pictures. But I've found some time this afternoon to do some blogging yay! :) On Saturday I went to visit the other half in Birmingham to take a look around some shops in the 'Bullring'. After the 3 hour and a half train journey, I was exhaustedddd and did not feel like shopping one bit (I thought I'd never ever say that in my entire life) so we only popped into a few shops.

I was happily greeted by the boyfriend at the station with a little gift that I have been dying to get for a long long time!! Here we introduce the 'Melange Jersey Pocket skirt' in 'Heather black' that retails for £25.00. You can find it here on: store . americanapparel . co . uk / com. American Apparel really floats my boat lmao, everything is so wearable, versatile and casual. The thing that I love most is that each piece can look ever so different each time you wear it because they can be teamed up with almost anything. For example, this skirt could be worn with a slouchy t-shirt and plimsoles for a comfortable look or with platforms and a bandaeu top for a night out.

I was eager to go in Urban Outfitters because I don't have a store here in Portsmouth, so he wisked me there as soon as I arrived in Birmingham and I found these cute studded pumps. I ♥ them and they look killer with leggings, a black lace top and a fitted leather jacket.

That was all I got on Saturday, apart from lunch from Pizza Express mMmm!

Other things I bought this week:

I was in Superdrug and noticed they had some good offers on hair care so I bought some Aussie Miracle Hair insurance leave in conditioner - a saviour for wear, distressed hair. I've bought this before and loved it, mainly because of the sweet scent and cheap price! It doesn't leave my hair feeling greasy or dirty like other hair products do. This product says it 'helps detangle and protect' and it certainly does that as well as leaving my hair feeling a little softer than usual! If you're in the UK please do go and have a browse at the Aussi range in superdrug, they are offering buy one get one half price on top of the reduction! I bought this 250ml spray for £3.37.

I needed an eye cream so I popped into Sallys and found this Chi vital eye gel for £8.99 for a 15ml tube which says it 'hydrates and protects the delicate skin around the eye'. I have been using this every morning and evening but have not noticed any difference around my eye area (I'm not sure if i'm supposed to but anyhoo). However it is very refreshing when it's applied on the eye contour, it's too bad i haven't seen any results yet. Do you know of any good eye creams to help reduce baggy eyes?

Lots of love

Blog sale?

Good afternoon dear bloggers,

I was just wondering if I should do a blog sale and if any of you guys would be interested in it. I have so many unwanted, unworn clothes that are just left clogging up my wardrobe that desperately NEED to go to a loving new home. I used to sell my clothes/bags/jewelerry and so on, on, myspace but have become very sick of time wasters and scammers so I thought it might be a good idea to sell things on here instead :) rather than on ebay because i'm not too fond of paying all the fees etc. Should I give it a try on here? Yes/No?

Here's a sneak peak of the things that will be most likely put up for sale:

Lots of love,

Pretty little things

Hiiii :)
Hope you have all been enjoying your weekend, the weather has been slightly poor in the South >.< Here is my eye make up todayyyyyy and a few things I have purchased this week or quite recently.

My first ever

Mac Mineralise skinfinish in Perfect topping:

I bought this in the CCS - cosmetics company store or the CCO as it's mostly known as for a mere £11.99 (what an absolute bargain) and believe it to be from the sugar sweet collection? I'm really glad I picked this up because there were only 3 left! It's perfect for the summer and adds a warm glow to the face - can be used as a highlighter or bronzer to leave you looking radiant. I have been using this almost every day since I bought it and apply it onto my cheek bones, forehead and nose as its very versatile and compliments any make up look ♥ I am really quite happy I bought this as it transforms my dull face in the morning and also makes your face looking very natural rather than powdery or greasy looking - yay! What do you think about Perfect topping? Are there any other MSF that you would reccommend?

This necklace reminds me so much of the DSK necklaces that everyone is raving on about.
If you're in the UK and want to get your hands on some DSK but can't then try looking in Debenhams. My Mum bought this for me in Debehams for £7.50 reduced from £15.00 which is another bargain find :) The flower shape crystal is gorgeeeeeousssssssssss, it's yellow but shimmers all different colours in the light and looks like it should be worth more than £7.00 lmao >.<>

More bargains! £1.00 from Claire's

Very boho and perfect for the Summer

These pretty earrings that feature dragon flys are also from Debenhams for - £6.00

First time buying jewelerry from Debehams and found two really cute items. I am a happy bunny ^_^

There will be more show and tells to come! Tomorrow infact because I went to visit my boyfriend in Birmingham today and we went shopping ^_^

Please take care everyone

xoxo

Why oh why

Just a quick post as I feel sooooooooooo dead 0_0

yayyy i'm £50 richer! i helped out at my mums friends shop for 5 hours this evening and she gave me £50 to say thanks ^_^ i'm still figuring out what i want to spend the money on when i go see the other half <3

I bought this little cute floral cup (please ignore the background mess) in Matalan the other day and thought it would be good to store my make up brushes in. It was only £2 in the sale, reduced from £4 so that was a pretty good bargain find :) AND it matches my eyeliner cup so that's another bonus.

I miss my acrylic nails :( I took them off last week and decided i would have a play around with my nails with some 'nail art' rather than having a plain polish. I think i'm becoming addicted to having acrylic nails, but i can only have them on for as long as a week because i'm a fidgeter and end up peeling them off. Luckily my mum is a nail technician so i can get them done for free >.<>

Alsoooooo, may i ask how i respond to comments under my posts? I hope that none of you think i am being rude or ignorant because i haven't replied becauseeee i'm not too sure if you get my reply if i just respond directly under the comment? >.<>

Hope you are all enjoying your weekend

Bits and bobs

Dear readers,
today i joined the gym wooooooho! I will be starting tomorrow for two weeks to try to tone up before my sisters wedding considering i'm a bridesmaid (for the first time ever!). I'm so unprepared for everything that i don't even have any sportswear to wear tomorrow >.< So yesterday i was awoken by the postman and recieved my asos package which contained some new cosmetics that i tried out on my 'fotd':




Products used:

Face

• Couvrance correcteur de teint - Natural 02
• Eyeko touch up and go concealer
• Lavera naturkosmetic trend sensitiv loose power - Transparent
• Models own lip and cheek tint - Rouge Blush

Eyes

• Maybeline eye express easy lining pen - Night gray
• Rimmel london soft kohl pencil - 071 Pure white (bottom inner corner)

Lips

• Models own lip and cheek tint - Rouge Blush
• Avon - Terracotta
  

First thoughts are that I loveee the models own lip and cheek tint! It's so easy to apply, doesn't budge throughout the day (on the cheeks), has a light scent of flowers and leaves a natural finish. What more could you ask for? Especially priced at £6.00!!! I'm predicting that this tint will last me until the end of the year as you only need the smallest amount. The nail varnish like applicator means that there will be no wastage too so i'm happy about that :) I'll post some pictures of how it looks tomorrow when i'm not so tired

♥
Marcus Lupfer:

Available from topshop, asos, net-a-porter etc

& The most stunning bag of this week goes to..

oh and i discovered something much better than shaving foam (when it decided to run out) so i didn't fancy shaving without any cream or anything so i grabbed... hair conditioner lmao! try it and let me know what you think? ^_^

buh-byeeeeee

The Ugly Truth

Hey everyone,
I have been slightly lazy writing up posts hence the last post full of fashion inspiration (which is probably good for a change):D at least you don't have to read a load of ramblejamble! Earlier this evening me and my sister went to see a preview of this film:

First word to describe this movie is that is hilaroussssss. I don't think I've ever laughed so hard at a film before in my life and the audience were all cracking up too, especially at the vibrating knickers restaurant scene = extremely funny. This is a film full of sexual innuendos, laughs, sexism/battle of the sex's and plenty more. I would highly reccomend this film to those who like romantic comedys, however this one lacks in romance and the storyline is predictable as of any other romantic but it excels with the crude humour and over dramatic scenes that exist throughout the film so it's perfect for both females and males (who seem to shy away from and grumble at the sight of 'romantic' films) as it contains many things we can relate to. I give this a 8/10! Just because we didn't get to see much of the hot guy...*jokes*. ps. i don't think the trailer does the film any justice :(

Better be off to play street fighter, addictive stuffffff >.<

Effortless
