July Favourites + Catch-Up!

Hey everyone, I hope you are all having lovely holidays:)
Now, if you are a reader of my blog, you will have noticed my last blog post was over 3 months ago! I don't know what happened in that time, I guess I just lost my motivation. But now I'm back with a monthly favourites post!

Sleek Face Form Contouring and Blush Palette - £9.99 


This is one of those products which caught my eye as I was drifting through Superdrug. I am so glad I picked it up and bought it, because it is such good value for money and all three of the powders have incredible pigmentation! My palette is in Light and it has a contour, highlight and blush. I find that if I wear all three at once, it can look a bit overdone, however the contour and blush compliment each other beautifully.

You can buy this in boots or Superdrug.

Topshop Nail Varnish in Milkshake - £5 
For a while I was hunting for the perfect pastel pink under £10, and I have definatley found it! Despite the fact that most beauty bloggers would save this colour for the Spring months only, I have being loving this on my nails this summer. The consistency is a little gloopy, however if you apply two thin coats the colour is opaque and even :)

(panic, this is one of my favourite nail varnishes and it isn't on the topshop website anymore. I really hope they haven't discontinued it omg)

Vaseline Spray & Go Moisturiser in Aloe Vera - £4.99 
I only picked this up last week, but I love it already. It is so much easier to use than a normal moisturiser because the spray function can get to that sunburnt back (yes it was very painful). My spray is in Aloe Vera, however they also have Cocoa Butter and Vanilla.
You can buy this from Boots or Superdrug.

Topshop Joni Jeans - £36 

It took me a little while to finally decide I wanted to spend £36 on a pair of jeans, but it is so worth it. I find these jeans so flattering and because of the super high waist and skinny fit, you can dress these up, as well as dress them down. The denim is a really comfortable material, its fairly stretchy but it still quite thick and keeps its shape well.

(Sorry for the stock photo, my jeans are incredibly creased)




Scrabble Ring- £1
This was a very random buy last week. i was helping my mum at our local car boot sale and I went to look round some of the stalls. Someone had a collection of Scrabble rings, and luckily had a L! It was only £1 and I have been loving wearing this with brightly coloured nail varnish.
You can get similar off Ebay.

Thank you for reading, and sorry it has taken me so long to post again! I definatley want to get back into blogging this summer, so expect an OOTD soon :)

Please don't forget to comment and follow, I really appreciate it:)

OOTD ~ summer crops

Hey guys!
I'm on a bit of a blogging roll since Monday! Today was super sunny and everyone was out so I decided to take some pictures of my outfit! (note to self: ootd's are hard when the photographer is yourself)
I think I was a bit too excited about the sunny weather and decided a jacket would not be necessary. A jacket was necessary. 


 Daisy Crop Top - New Look years ago
Shorts - Topshop
Wonder Woman Converse - Office

I love the crop top fashion at the moment but I haven't seen any in the shops which jump out at me, so I decided to search my personal jumble sale a.k.a wardrobe and dug out this old thing. It's so old its from the times of Generation915. Wow.

Ring - A random shop in Germany

Lots of Love,

Nails of the day: Topshop Celestial

Topshop - Celestial

I have been reaching for this colour a lot recently because it is so versitile and only requires 2 coats which dries quickly. In some lights in can look a pastel blue and even lilac, and then in others it can look electric blue! I find it is the perfect transition into the spring months and this polish is on the lower end of the price scale at only £5 from Topshop, and I really recommend these polishes for their lovely quality. I hope to buy some more soon:)

Do you have any Topshop nail varnishes?

my wishlist #1

This is the first time I have done some of these, but at the moment I am pretty broke, and I there are a lot of stuff I want to buy:(

1. Dasiy by Mark Jacobs - £45 for 50ml, I love this but I'm not prepared to part with so much money on one thing:( maybe i will wait for my birthday...

2. Topshop Lip Stain in Powder Room - £7 (click here) I think this colour is soo pretty

3. Topshop TAM Flatforms in white - £24 (click here) I hope to get these for the summer, i just love the flatform soo much! I also love white shoes, but they aren't very practical so I chose these instead of the vans version:)

4. Topshop MOTO 50's Hotpants - £28 (click here)I cannot wait until the summer. I'm getting so excited I already know which shorts I will be wearing 24/7, but I just loveeee these! I have never spent £28 on a pair of shorts before, so I hope these are nicee!

5.LUSH The Immaculate Eggception (pink) - £6.95. Who doesn't love LUSH, and this little egg is soo cute! The price is a lot higher than their other bath products, but I hope it worth it ( I think there is two ballistics in one)

Sorry for the quick and rushed post, but I might have another one up tomorrow as well <3

Please comment and subcribe, it means a lot to me!
