OOTD: Comfy Casual

Hi!


Today I would like to share with you my outfit of the day, entitled 'Comfy Casual'. This is a great outfit to wear now that the weather has cooled down a bit, and it's comfy too! It's a great look to go shopping in, or maybe even to the cinema.

 

 
This bag is very pretty and perfect to brighten up any dull outfit. It was from Primark and was £6. Absolute bargain and goes so well with this outfit.
 
 
 
These earrings are from Claires Accersorie's and were £8. Love them so much and they are perfect to wear in warm summer afternoon's.
 
 
 
I decided to try out my new pastel blue Barry M nail varnish (see previous blog post for more info on it!). I love this colour, it's so summery! It's very bright and stands out (although the flash on my camera hasn't made it look as it does to the eye!). If you are brave with wearing bright nail colours, then this one is for you. It is very unique and bold! £2.99 from Superdrug in the shade Blueberry. The bracelet is from New Look and was £4.
 
 
 
I got my trusty Primark ballet pumps out again! £6 = bargain. I got these shoes a while ago and have done a blog post about them. But they were perfect for this outfit, they fitted with the colour of the jumper and the sparkle of the jewellery! Plus so easy to walk around in all day!
 
 
I was wearing a plain black vest underneath this pretty dotty white jumper from H&M, which was £14.99. The necklace was from Next for around £6, and the jeans were £20 from Dorothy Perkins.
 
That sums up the whole outfit! I hope you like it, and I shall be back soon with another post!
Bye! xx

July Favourites and OOTD!

Hello all!
So glad the nice weather has finally arrived after all the rain, woohoo! Anyway, I have a few of my favourite products I would like to share with you, as my 'July Favourites'.

 I have recently started using these Tresemm'e products for my hair and they are fab! They are the straightening spray and the glossing spray in the smooth range. Boots have a deal on at the moment for Tresemm'e products, 2 for £8, so go check it out. But usually these are around £4.99. It's always a good idea to use products like this for your hair, especially when you are someone like me who always straightens mine!! They have Argan Oil in them as well, so you know your hair will be in tip-top condition!

I am really liking these two yummy products at the moment. The strawberry body butter is from The Body Shop, and I got it in a set but I guess you can buy it on it's own. I think it's around £3. It's such a brilliant product to use, especially since the weather is starting to get warmer (finally!). It smells really nice and obviously like strawberry's, and is a nice creamy mousse. It goes on so easily and makes you feel nice and refreshed. As for the cocoa vaseline, I LOVE! I've always used the plain one, but just recently decided to get this one and I am in love. It's around £1.99 from Boots, but of course you can get it from most places at around the same price.It's so nice to have a yummy lip care product that smells lush and cares for your lips. It's cheap and so handy, plus smells gorgeous! I feel a fool for not buying it sooner!

These two E.L.F. products you may have seen in one of my previous blog posts, but I am really loving them at the moment too. In case you haven't seen the last post I talked about them in, the minerals powder was £5, and the lip plumping gloss in fushia fanatic was £1.50. Both from www.eyeslipsface.co.uk
I really like the powder at the moment as it's feels so light on my skin and gives a brilliant coverage that never fails to impress me every time!! You don't even need to use much product so it lasts quite a while, and it also gives me a nice tanned glow. And I am still in love as ever with the lip plumping gloss, I use it every day! In fact I need to get another one, I've used it that much :/ !! Such brilliant products and totally recommend to everyone.

These are my last two products that I am really liking this month. The chocolate face mask is fab, only £1 and available widely. Such a good idea to do a face mask in a chocolate flavour, YUM!! Smells gorgeous, cheap as chips, and leaves you feeling fresh. I've heard they do a white chocolate version, so if anyone has tried that one then let me know what it's like as thats the next one I want to get! Most people are familiar with these face masks, but for those of you who haven't tried them, do it because they are brilliant. The Maxfactor Lasting Performance foundation is brill, really like this at the moment! It's usually £10 in the shops, but a little tip; get it off ebay, I got it for £6 - BARGAIN! It's feels so light and you don't need to use much product on your face, plus perfect coverage and gives a nice tanned glow. Recommend to all, as it is the perfect foundation for the summer!!

And FINALLY..... I want to share with you my outfit of the day.....

Nice summer casual outfit. Top from H&M - £12.99 (see my previous blog post on this). Leggings from Select - £4. Sandals from Select - £7. Necklace from New Look - £8. Carigan from Primark - £6.
Bag was from New Look but was given as a present but I think is around £25.

Hope you enjoyed this blog, speak soon! xx

OOTD!!

Hello hello!

I just wanted to share today's outfit with you. I wore this just out as a casual shopping outfit, although I didn't buy anything as I have no money, booo!! Some of the items you may have seen are from my shopping blog post I did a few days back, but this outfit is really fun, comfortable and stylish.




Some of the items I am wearing I got quite a while ago, a good example would be the earrings. I think i got them from Oasis for about £4. I know it's not alot of help, but most shops do earrings like this so they are pretty easy to find. I've had these earrings for a good 3 years now, and they have been admired by many!
The necklace is a very glitzy two-layered butterfly, and I got that from a small independent jewellery shop a few months back, it was £4. Again, many shops do this kind of deisgn, so shop around and I am sure you will find something similar.
I don't know if you can see the ring and bracelet that I'm wearing, but the ring was in a set of 5 from Oasis for £2, and the bracelet was from New Look for £3.
My Zebra top was from H&M, and that was £7.99, a perfect top to wear shopping. Stylish, and keeps you cool!
The bag I am wearing I am in love with. I got given it for christmas so I'm not 100% sure on the price. But I know it's from New Look so I'm guessing it would be around £25.
The leggings and dolly shoes are both from Primark, and are £3 and £6.

Hope you like!!

Shopping trip! Primark, Republic, H&M!

Hello everyone!

I am a very happy bunny at the moment as I've been shopping! I love nothing more than shopping, so i get far too excited about it! Anyway I wanted to share with you some of the things that I've brought!

I'll start off with what I got from Primark.


First off I just want to stress how much I LOVE Primark shoes. Especially the dolly shoes! So cheap and that means you can buy about 3 pairs for the same price as one pair from somewhere else!
The pink pair were £8, and I had a gold pair like these before. They are so nice to wear, they look good and they are really comfy. The gold and white pair were £6. I haven't had any like this pair before but there's never anything to complain about Primark shoes so I'm confident they will be just as good as any other pair. They are my favourite out of the 2, they look so lush and I fell in love with them straight away! The leopard print leggings were £6. I love leopard print and any kind of animal print. These were the first thing I saw when I entered the shop and I dived for them! Luckily I managed to grab the last one in my size so I was very happy with them. Animal print is so in fashion at the moment, call it tacky all you want but I LOVE it!!

Next we have stuff from Republic!


I am really liking Republic at the moment. They have such a unique style of clothes in there, and it's stuff that I really am into as well. The pink leopard print top was £10 and that was in the sale. Again, I love animal print so this was right up my street! It's a lovely button up vest shirt, and it has a little tied up bit on the bottom of the shirt. It's quite see-through so I would wear this with a vest underneath, but other than that I love it. The Soulcal joggers were £20, and they are such a lush purple. I brought these for casual wear and they are really lush. I thought they might be a bit looser around the legs as they are quite snug, but oh well, can't complain, they are too nice!!

Finally I went to H&M.

I am also quite liking H&M at the moment too. The Zebra print top was £7.99, and I got this because it so different from most tops. It's a lush design and fits nice and loose, so would be perfect for casual wear in the summer! The pink top I am in love with! It was £12.99. It looks plain and simple, but trust me, it's gorgeous!! It fits kind of like a balloon top, and it looks gorgeous with black leggings and dolly shoes. This is my favourite buy of the year, seriously thats how much I love it!! It's a lovely shape and so girly.

Anyway, that was what I got on my shopping trip. I was a bit annoyed that I didn't get anthing else, but I was happy with what I did get. If anyone else has these item's, leave a comment and let me know what you think of them!!
