Happy Easter!

Hello lovelies, 

IT'S EASTEEEERRRR!

I hope you're all having an amazing day with your families or whoever you are spending your Easter Sunday with. Anyway, I thought that you might want to see what I got from my parents as I am so thankful. 


I got all of this, I honestly didn't expect anywhere near this much! I know to some people this may not be a lot but I am so so thankful for it all. In the morning me and my little brother, Joe, did an Easter egg hunt that my parents had set up to find everything - it was so cute! 

What did you all get for Easter? Leave a comment! 

Love from,

Favourite SS13 nail polish:*

Hi there lovelies, 

Today I have another beauty related blog post for you- my current favourite nail polishes for the Spring/Summer time! I will be uploading my Spring/Summer haul in the next few days however, it will probably be very long so I thought that I'd upload a shorter one first for those of you that don't want to sit through and read a long blog post :-) 


These are my favourites for SS13! The different brands are: Essie, TopShop, Barry M and Maybelline. All of the colours are bright, matte and mostly pastel (apart from the sparkly ones) which makes them perfect for the SS13.


These are my Barry  M nail polishes for the SS13. From left to right they are called: Peach Melba, Strawberry I/C, Berry I/C and Cyan Blue. The first three are very pastel and quite girly colours for the SS13 whereas, the Cyan Blue isn't. Even though the Cyan Blue isn't a pastel colour, I picked it because it's very bright and fun for SS13 and not too dark! I love the Barry M nail polishes because they have such a large range of colours and the coverage is brilliant - you don't need a lot for a thick coat! 


The next two are my top favourites for the SS13 from Essie and TopShop. The shades are:  Essie- Mint Candy Apple and Topshop- Parma Violet. I am honestly in love with these two nail polishes (that sounds so so sad Robyn, being in love with nail polishes), they are such beautiful colours and perfect for the SS13. Ironically, I haven't actually tried them out on my actual nails yet as my boyfriend bought them for me the other day however, I have heard amazing things about them and I love the colours from bottle:-). You're probably thinking "why have you showed us another lilac nail polish", but this lilac is a lot more pastel purple whereas the Barry M one is a lot more pinky. 


Last but not least are my glittery/sparkly nail polishes for the SS13. From left to right they are: Topshop- Tingle, Brazil, Ziggy and Maybelline Mini Colo Rama - Tutti Frutti. I know that these are colours to wear in the SS13 but I thought that it would be fun to experiment with SS13 colours with some glitter for a more girly look! TopShop glitters are amazing however, Brazil which is mulitcoloured (looks more brown in the picture) is quite hard to get off if you have a cheap nail polish remover. Other than that, I love all of these glitters and love to experiment different styles with them.

So that's it for my favourite SS13 nail polishes! Leave a comment if you'd like to see more blog posts on nail polishes and maybe even different nail polish designs. I will be uploading my SS13 haul soon :-). Any constructive criticism is always appreciated but no nasty comments or hate please, if you don't like my blog simply don't look at it :).

March Empties:*

Hello lovelies, 

So I did it, I managed to not leave another month in between blog posts haha! Anyway, today I've just got a small blog post for you all which is my March empties. I know it's not the end of March yet but it's so so close (I swear it was Christmas just the other week:(..) and I don't have any other products that are almost finished in time for April. 

So here we go, my March empties... 


These are my 3 March empties (told you it would be a short blog post, hehe). They are the Rimmel London Stay Matte powder, Benefit Bad Gal Lash mascara and Katy Perry Meow perfume. The powder I have only had for a month or so, the mascara I've had for 6 months (I get rid of them after 6 months as they go off after that) and I've had my perfume for over a year. 


First is my Rimmel London Stay Matte powder! I know that there is still a little bit of powder around the edge of the pot however, I'm going to depot it and crush it into a little pot to use occasionally (not that it will last long). Anyway, I love love love this powder, I heard a lot of rave about this powder and I always love a matte look so I decided to give it a try. I am fairly pale however, I didn't need the lightest shade in this due to the range of shades (my shade is 005, Silky Beige as you can see from the picture). This powder applies very well with a good coverage and definitely gives a matte effect however, I did find that I had to re-apply it a few times throughout the day which I don't have to with my MAC powder which disappointed me :( 


Next is my Benefit BAD Gal Lash mascara! Oh my goodness, I cannot praise this mascara enough, just go an buy it if you don't already own it, okay? I had wanted to try this mascara for a long time however, I waited until I went over to America because it was cheaper. Even though I had to wait for it, it was sooooo worth it! Not only does it last for a long time, it gives your lashes amazing volume without looking too fake and even lengthens a bit too. Along with the Benefit They're Real mascara, this is my favourite mascara and when paired together, the two make your eyelashes look perfect. I've just recently re-purchased this mascara too (well mummy did for me). 


Finally Is my Katy Perry Meow perfume! A while back I also had the Katy Perry Purr but unfortunately it ran out rather quickly so my mum got me this as a present! Not only am I in love with Katy Perry but her perfumes are gorgeous and seem to last a very long time. I am absolutely atrocious at describing scents however, this perfume has a strong vanilla and floral scent. When the vanilla starts to fade the floral is more prominent  Such a gorgeous perfume and so gutted that it's ran out :( 

So there you have it, my March empties! I hope you enjoyed this blog post and let me know if you'd like to see similar blog posts to this again in the future. I will be uploading my new Spring/Summer clothes once my new shoes arrive and may even do a look book to go with or in a separate blog post :). Remember, I would love any constructive criticism but no hate or nasty comments please!

Collective Haul :*

Hello again my lovelies, 

Oh my goodness, it's almost been a month since I last posted! I'm honestly so sorry, I don't even have a good enough excuse for you all apart from that I've been too lazy to take some pictures, edit them and write about them.. not good! 

Anyway, to make up for not posting in a while, I've got a collective haul for you!
Over the past month I've picked up a few bits and pieces however, nothing major as I haven't needed anything that desperately to spend my money on (I'm trying to save for Germany and London in Summer). 
Although, I do have parcels from TopShop, H&M, ASOS and Miss Selfridge coming within the next week or so that i'll show you when they arrive (summer clothes, eeeeek!)


These are all of my purchases over the past month, as you can see they're mainly beauty related!
Everything you see will be in more detail below :-)


These are all of my favourite beauty products that I bought recently! I have previously purchased a MAC lipstick and fell in love however, this is my first time trying any of their other products! I love love love the MAC studio fix powder, it is very creamy as it works as a very light alternative to foundation and stays on almost all day. The MAC lipstick that I bought was in Vegas Volt, I've wanted a deep coral colour for a while and fell in love with this one. In the picture the lipstick looks a lot more red than it actually is, it's actually a dark coral-pink colour. I also got a sample of the strobe cream which I have been using almost every day, I might have to purchase the large size.

All products - MAC online


My next purchases are also beauty related! As I had just splurged out on some MAC products, I just got a few cheaper drug store products that I desperately needed! I had just run out of primer and felt tip eyeliner so I wanted to find some cheap alternatives to the more expensive brands. I came across the NYC primer and MUA extreme felt tip liner. I love this primer, it is quite cheap at £3.49 (it was on offer when I bought it) yet it still gives you very good coverage and lasts all day. I am also very happy with the £2 felt tip liner, it glides on very well however, it isn't as black as I would have liked :(

NYC primer - Superdrug


My next purchase was 4 Yankee Candles in the scents: sugared apple, vanilla cupcake, pink dragon fruit and wild passion fruit. As you can see from the photograph, I am currently using wild passion fruit in my vintage bird cage candle holder and I love it, it's a very fresh smell which I was looking for to freshen my room up. Sugared apple is one of the Christmas candles however, it is lovely for all year round! It basically just smells like what it says, sugar and apples. My favourite candle out of the 4 has to be vanilla cupcake, it just smells divine. Sugar, icing, vanilla, cake.. just heaven! My last candle is pink dragon fruit which also smells amazing (durr Robyn, otherwise you wouldn't have bought it), it smells of dragon fruit (obviously), it is such a fruity smell yet still smells quite sweet. 
I highly recommend all of these candles!

Yankee Candles - yankee candle store

So that's all of my purchases in the last month! I hope you enjoyed this collective haul, sorry for the long wait :/. There should be another blog post when all of my parcels arrive within the next week or so, so look out for that. I promise I'll try my best to upload a blog post every week or two.
I'd appreciate any constructive criticism remember :) 

Love from,
