Party, Party Take 2

First of Many Hauls

Shopping is my addiction.

I was just quickly at the shops today to collect shoes from Next and ended up picking up a few things unexpectedly. In my defence I do need to get summer clothes for both my holidays.

Next Mono Two Part Pointed Shoe; £22

So here we go..

What I originally went to the shops for were these amazing shoes. I saw them first when shopping with my mum last week, and when we got to the checkout I was given a £10 off voucher when creating an account, so I couldn't say no to these shoes. They ended up at £12. The toe is pointed, which is black suede and the heel is white faux leather. They look beautiful and are very sturdy shoes. I got these in a size 5, and will have to exchange them for the 4. I've been a size 5 for about 6 years and all of a sudden my feet must have shrunk.

River Island Silver T bad barely there
stiletto sandals; £45

As I have my school leavers (prom) coming up I had to get shoes to wear with my amazing new dress. The ones I wanted were Steve Madden from House of Fraser but unfortunately they have been out of stock everywhere for weeks now so I had no way of getting my hands on them. Very gutted. So these were the next best thing. They are just from River Island and only £45. Such a good price, as I did not see why I should spend a fortune as I would only wear them once and probably never again. They are known as the 'Silver T bar barely there stiletto sandals' and are available in many different colours. They have a buckle strap around the ankle, which will help keep them on. I also had to get these in a size 4, although the woman in the store did say they were made big. They are about 4.5 inches high (11cm) and I cannot wait to wear them (once I'm able to walk in them).

H&M Sweatshirt Top; £12.99

Next I went into H&M to return some items that were too big. I immediately fell in love with this top. It is a pastel pink - my favourite colour at the moment - with PALM SPRINGS wrote across the chest area. It has short sleeves that are already turned up and in an almost sweatshirt material. It was £12.99 and I'm sure they sold it in a pale yellow colour as well, and many different designs of the same style. It looks like the top would be cropped but it does cover your belly button and when wearing high-waisted jeans it does cover all of the zip on hem.

H&M Cropped Top; £3.99

I came across another top in H&M that was so pretty. I am also in love with palm tree print at the minute, so when I saw pink palm trees on a top I had to have it. As I was looking for my size, I saw the price tag which was only... £3.99, now how could you say no to that? It is cropped, which sits quite a bit up from my belly button and I'd say was quite a big size XS. However, it is perfect for summer and I love it. Currently they seem to have dropped their prices with most of their cropped tops being this price, and skirts as low as £3.99 as well. Amazing bargains for summer!!

Socks - Next £7,
Umbrella - H&M £4.99,
Wet Wipes - H&M 99p

 Lastly I got some essentials that I need, which are pretty boring but I will mention them anyway. The skate shoes I got from Topshop rub slightly on my feet so I had to get those socks that cover your heels and toes - I have no idea what they are called but I hope you get the idea? If you know what they are known as please let me know! I did manage to get 3 pairs for £7 from Next thankfully, as I had none at home so couldn't wear my new shoes much.  I also bought a new umbrella for £4.99 from h&m as mines broke in the wind and rain a few weeks ago. It is just a plain black one as usual.
Finally I picked up 'fresh vanilla hand and face wet wipes' from h&m purely because they smelt amazing and were 99p.

This was a pretty short haul but I felt like I've wrote tonnes. All items were bought from Fort Kinnaird, Edinburgh and are all still available in stores. Any comments are much appreciated and your opinions on what I bought would be lovely.

Much Love.

Eyebrow defining

I'm no Cara Delevingne. But when it comes to eyebrows they have to always be on point. I mean awful eyebrows are just my worst nightmare. Personally, I have awkward eyebrows as there are gaps in them which means I need to pencil them in everyday anyway. However, finding the perfect eyebrow pencil seems to be a challenge and I have currently settled for one by Collection. I have also tried ones previously by Maybelline and Rimmel.

1. Maybelline Eye Brow Pencil

I've looked everywhere to see what this is exactly called and cannot find it anywhere and is no longer on Boots or Superdrug's website, so maybe it no longer exists. I have no idea. I'd say this one was my second favourite. This one is easy to apply (smooth not rough), is a light shade - useful as I have fair eyebrows - and has a brow brush on the other end. 

The down side to this one is it has to be sharpened, which I'm really not a fan of as most of the pencil ends up in the sharpener and it can never be perfected to how it comes when you originally buy it.

2. Rimmel Professional Eye Brow Pencil
This one was bought in an emergency, as I had not realised I ran out of my previous one. It was the only eyebrow pencil close to my eyebrow colour in the entire shop. I personally do not like it, as it is too rough when applying and my eyebrows look fake. I got it in the colour Hazel which was the lightest colour, but was still far too dark. 





3. Collection Eyebrow Definer Pencil
I've never ever used a Collection product ever, but when I saw that this one didn't even need sharpened I had to have it. It is by far the best one I've tried yet and I'd recommend it to anyone. AND it was only £2.79!! I'd so recommend this, absolutely amazing, 

What eyebrow pencil do you recommend?

Primark Candles

Candles are my new obsession.

I took a trip to Primark and decided to buy a few candles to see what the fuss was about them. I never really got why people loved burning candles so much, but now I know. So I bought 2 candles, one a basic vanilla and another one watermelon.

They both smell absolutely amazing and they were so cheap I couldn't believe it. Well it was Primark. The vanilla one was just £1, and looks like it will last quite a long time. The smell is not too strong, yet is just right for you to be able to catch the unbelievable smell that it gives off. You would not think it was from Primark.

The watermelon one, is my favourite thing ever. I also have a current obsession with things with watermelons on it, purely because of Beyonce's song 'Drunk in Love'. So when I saw this candle I knew I had to have it. And it was only £1.50. Unfortunately, I do not have a photo of how it was when I bought it as I immediately started burning it. But basically, it was just a pink candle but had a watermelon on the top of it, and now most of the watermelon is gone. That is the only disappointing bit, the watermelon goes first. Luckily I do have a photo of it after it has been burnt, so you will get a rough idea on what it looks like.
I will definitely be going back to get more, as they had many different scents, and at that price you cannot complain.
