Primark and Evan Jewellery Haul

JEWELLERY HAUL

FASHION | Forever 21 Jewellery Haul

Hey guys and dolls,

I've never shopped in Forever 21, I have frequented the store often, as my best friend LOVES IT! The reason I've never shopped there is purely because they don't cater tom size, which is unfortunately because I do like some of their clothes and shoes. So on a girls day out at Westfield she dragged me in there because they had a 50% off sale with a further 50% reduction.

FASHION: Wishlist #1

Hey guys and dolls,

1. Black Woven Cross Body Bag (River Island) - £18

2. Black Quilted Chain Strap Bag (River Island) - £28

3. Blue Figure of 8 maxi dress (Evans) - £45

4. Ella Black Embellished Toe Post Sandal (Evans)- £29.50

5. Filigree Leaf Drop Earrings (Forever 21) - £2

Fashion Friday: SKULLS SKULLS SKULLS!!!

Hey guys and dolls,

Happy Good Friday everybody. Only 2 days until lent is over...yippee *does happy dance*. If you don't celebrate that holiday, then simply...TGIF!!! 4 DAY WEEKEND!

I've never really shopped at Claire's before, but upon visiting realised they had some pretty cool things to offer. Also whenever I'm on a shopping trip with the bestie I get dragged to almost every shop possible. Fortunately that day Claire's had a £1 sale and BOGOF in store.

Fashion Friday: Rings

Hey guys and dolls,

I think I've mentioned this before but I've really started to get into accessories. I've always been into clothes and shoes, but accessories kind of ended up on the back burner. So when I go out now I spend a lot more time perusing the jewellery sections.

Avon haul C14

Hey dolls,

I've taken a step back from purchasing from Avon recently. I have spent SO MUCH money on their products and I needed to calm it down a little. So this will probably be the last Avon post you see for a little while. Which I'm sure some of you will be happy with, because for a while it's all I posted about on here which probably didn't do me any favours. It got a little repetitive I think. Anyhow on with the haul.

"A leopard never changes it's spots..."

Hey dolls,

So there was a slight theme to my last Avon purchase....can you guess what it is? lol

Instinct For Her EDP 50ml

£15

I wasn't looking to buy a new perfume, but when I saw what you got when you purchased it I had to get it.

When you ordered the perfume you got :

Body spray

Body lotion

Zoey necklace

Zoey necklace

This necklace is GORGEOUS! And the main reason for the purchase of the perfume.

Finley Scarf

£7

You may have noticed that I've become a little obsessed with scarves lately. So here is another one to add to the collection.

Little Black Dress perfume

£9

(Body spray came free)

This is a repurchase and one of my fave perfumes from Avon, its described as a timeless, classic combination of sweet fruits, fragranced flowers and rich woods. It's a great everyday scent.

LATE July Favourites

Hey dolls,

I think this is my first ever favourites post, I randomly felt like doing one. So here goes nothing.

I've only got a few items to show. but hopefully you see something that tickles your fancy and may go out and try. I will post a link to the original post of each item where applicable. Might give you the opportunity to see posts of mine that you've missed :)

Christian Lacroix Rouge EDP - £11.99

I've been wearing this perfume a lot recently. It's great for the daytime and evening.

Argan oil - £5.99

I jumped on the Argan oil train last year and haven't gotten off. This stuff is so good for your hair.

Garnier Moisture Match -Goodbye Dry 50ml

£5.99

This is such a good facial moisturiser and I luckily haven't had any bad reactions to it. Like I tend to with quite a few moisturisers cos I have really sensitive skin.

Finella bag - £9.99

I haven't spoken about this handbag on my blog yet. Its a new purchase from Avon and I LOVE IT! Its the perfect sized handbag and I've been wanting a tan bag for a while now. Unfortunately I got this bag in the clearance sale so its not available anymore.

Sleek Au Naturel palette - £6.49

This has been my go to palette for make up. I've been using it to create a daytime smokey eye with a bold red lip.

Ladies Shaded Scarf - £3
Another purchase that I haven't mentioned on my blog, I got this the same time as the Finella bag I mentioned. I have been a bit obsessed with scarves recently, I did a post on that here.

Barry M Gelly hi shine nail paints - £3.99

I have been obsessed with these polishes as of late. And 9 out of 10 times I've chosen one of these polishes to paint my nails with in the last month or so.

Tibu earring and necklace set - £3.50

I'm not sure if this set is still available, but I've been wearing this set every time I've gone somewhere. Its just so cute and I feel all sorts of sophisticated when I wear them. They dress up any outfit.

Rimmel apocalips lip lacquer in Big Bang - £6

I LOVE THIS!!!!!! I havent worn anything else on my lips for ages. Its like the perfect red. Its not matte but its not shiny either, its that happy medium.

Avon spectra lash - £10

My go to mascara, it makes my lashes so long and full. I have so many mascaras that I had forgotten about this one. But on a whim I picked it up and remembered just why I'd bought it. Such a good purchase. I never reviewed this product when I got it, so I will do a mini one now.

"Three lash looks in one tube. Twist up to customise you level of volume. Clump-proof and flake-proof"

I always use it on the 3rd setting cos I'm all about the full lashes. But I love the fact that you have the 3 different settings to suit any mood/look you're going for. On the 3rd setting a lot of mascara can come out on the wand, I usually just scrape it off and carry on with my application.

Avon Haul Part 2

Hey dolls,

Here is part 2 of the Avon haul. You can see part 1 here.

Infinitize Mascara

This brush is so scary looking, and its kinda sharp. I find it really uncomfortable to use. Maybe I'm using it wrong I dunno but I'm not a huge fan of it. I haven't really picked it up to use it since I first purchased it for the reasons stated but I am gonna give it another go and see if I can make it work.

"Contains lash sculpting, lengthening fibres and curling molecule to help shape and set lash curve and length for 24 hours."

ColorTrend Lasting Smile Lip Paint

Another ColorTrend newbie.

I don't love these, but I don't hate them. I'm kind of indifferent.

The formula is nice but I don't like how it applies on the lips.

Nocturnal

Gorgeous burgundy red. The name is fitting cos when I saw the shade I instantly thought Vampiress.

Lolita

This colour rubs me up the wrong way. I just don't like it. When you swatch it it doesn't look how it does in the stick. And when I apply it to my lips I just feel like you can barely see it.

Melon Drama
This shade is too light for me, so its going into my make up kit.

Left to right: Nocturnal, Lolita, Melon Drama

Be...JOYFUL perfume

A light and fruity perfume that's great for the daytime. The bottle is a good size to chuck in your purse/handbag for topping up throughout the day.

SuperSHOCK Lip Gloss:

Pumped Up Plum

Tickled Pink

I love these lip glosses, I have almost the entitre collection but one...I think. They leave your lips looking super slick and shiny. And the applicator is one of my faves.

When I first saw Pumped Up Plum (which you cant really see from the pic), I thought it was gonna be too dark could seem a bit intimidating, but when I swatched it I found that not to be the case.

Tickled Pink is a bit too light for me so I'm gonna throw it into my make up kit.

Left: Plumped Up Plum

Right: Tickled Pink

Always On Point Eyeliner - Black

I only use 2 eyeliners, MAC fluidline in Black Track and Avon SuperSHOCK pencil. But when I saw this I wanted to try it cos it had a really good selling point, a sharpener in the lid. So you can always have your eyeliner ready to create precise lines.

Adalina Earrings

Like I said in part 1 of the haul Ive been broadening my jewellery collection and trying to find some cute bits for the summer (what little summer England is giving us...like literally "Get your s**t together Carol" haha). I'm starting to embrace gold jewellery. I tend to go for silver, white gold or platinum jewellery cos I can findit more elegant, some gold jewellerycan be a bit chavvy/tacky. But I'm starting to like it.

Avon Haul Part 1

Hey dolls,

I haven't done an Avon haul in a little while and have still been purchasing some things here and there. So this haul is gonna be in 2 parts as I did not want to bombard you with a whole bunch of photos.

Pure 02 perfume

This a repurchase. I bought this a few months back and I love it so much they had on sale so I picked up another one.

Advanced Techniques Moroccan Argan Oil - Leave in treatment

Another repurchase - I'm all about argan oil. I love this product a lot and as long as Avon keep making it I'm gonna keep buying it.

Planet Spa Mediterranean olive oil hydrating face mask

I suffer with dry skin and I normally use my Simple face mask but I wanted to see what else I could try and as this is an olive oil based face mask I thought Id give it a whirl.

Antler Cabin bag

I only heard about Antler bags when I started selling for Avon, but ever since I have fallen in love with their bags. I have a couple but this one is by far my favourite. I use this as my day to day handbag but its also great for hand luggage on a plane.

Far Away Bella collection

Far Away Bella

With each purchase of the perfume you got a moisturiser and purse spray. I'm not even gonna insult your intelligence by trying to describe the scent. If you know me I am the WORST a describing perfume or spray scents.

I will give you the description that comes with the bottle... "A free-spirited adventure awaits, with juicy clementine from Italy and blooming magnolia flower from China, finished with intriguing tonka bean from Brazil"

Perfect Kiss lip gloss - Kiss of a Rose
"With natural oils and fruit enzymes for softer, smoother lips. Lightweight moisturising gloss instantly makes lips look and feel more kissable."

This is a great lip gloss to have for everyday.

I'm really weird about lip gloss applicators, well not weird more particular. I like a larger applicator not those silly little thin ones. I'm liking this applicator a lot.
