Ootd: Bright lippy and Crop top

Hellooooo! I hope your all doing well on this lovely summer day (Wahoo! Finally it's here). Just thought I'd pop in and show you what I'm wearing today. It's a relatively cheap outfit today mainly consisting of Primark. I think this outfit is great for a summer's day in a pub garden or a smart/casual party.

Boohoo.com Haul

If you've never heard of  Boohoo.com it is an "online fashion retailers, offering trend-led clothing at affordable prices". You may have seen their advert on the television. Around the time of my birthday I got a lovely email from the Boohoo team giving me 20% off my next order as a birthday gift. I later visited the website and bought some great clothing for my upcoming holiday.
 
Red Skater Skirt

Yellow Midi Skirt

Green Peplum Shirt

Aztec Print Cut-out Dress

Navy Playsuit
I really enjoyed my experience shopping on Boohoo.com! My order came within a few days and I was able to track my order. The clothing is great quality and true to size. I will definitely be purchasing from Boohoo.com, most likely in the near future. I would definitely recommend!

Mags of the Month

(L-R) InStyle £2.50, Look £1.80, Cosmopolitan £3.50

InStyle is a magazine that I've never bought before and I have to admit that I don't think I'll be buying it again. To me, it comes across as a very high fashion magazine and even though this issue is marked as the 'high street issue' I struggled to find any items or products from my local high street. Also, the magazine was quite boring, there was hardly any bright colours to draw me in and the writing wasn't great. So you may ask why I bought this mag, and I have 2 reasons:
  1. My boyfriend bought it to keep me occupied whilst he watched the football.
  2. It came with a sample size Benefit Sun Beam. (Also available was ChaCha Tint and Benetint).


Next up is Cosmopolitan or Cosmo. I'm really in love with this magazine and even though the price is the highest of the 3 magazines in this post, it's by far my favourite. It has a great mix of high street fashion and high fashion. Also its contains great things about beauty which of course I love. Some may ask if Cosmo justifies the price and I say, YES! This issue came with a Missguided Lipsplash in Fashion which is a purple gloss with blue undertones. It also came with a sample size Oral-B 3D White Toothpaste. Now, I love mags that come with freebies but I love mags even more when they come with sample within the mag i.e. perfumes and foundations. Also, Cosmo is bright and fun and the writing isn't boring or long-winded.You can also get this magazine in a travel size like the one I have which is great for sticking in your bag.



Lastly is Look magazine. This is the cheapest of the 3 magazines and is a really good read. Its really colourful and fun. It's got a great mix of beauty and fashion, and celebrity without being trashy. This is a weekly mag so it keeps me entertained whilst waiting for the monthly Cosmo. It's a much thinner magazine compared to the other two but it's worth getting as it has great features and interviews. If your umm-ing and arr-ing about what items of clothing to get for these colder months, I would recommend Look because it's all about high street fashion and is always spot on the trends of the season. Sadly, this issue didn't come with a freebie but for the price, I didn't expect one.

September Favourites


Welcome to my September Favourites!

CK One Shock For Her - This travel safe perfume has made it into my September favourites this month because it smells delicious and it fits perfectly into my bag and I don't have to worry about carrying a heavy glass bottle. If you ask me, it's a great invention!
Clinique Dramatically Different Moisturising Gel - I got this moisturiser as part of a set along with a cleanser and toner. I don't use the cleanser or toner much but I love this moisturiser as its not too thick and is quite refreshing. It's also really good for oily t-zones.
Barry M Base Coat, Top Coat and Nail Hardener - I get through base and top coats like nobodies business and even though its really annoying, it means that I get to try lots of different ones. As you may know, I am truly in love with Barry M so I thought I'd give this polish a go. Its great because its quick drying and really helps harden my nails!
Natural Collection Lipstick in Pink Mallow - I loved this lipstick last month. Its a really natural pink and really moisturising!
Umberto Giannini Intense Beauty Conditioner - Last month I managed to run out of all my conditioners all at once and was left with this Umberto Giannini Conditioner that I got in a pack for my birthday. I was surprisingly happy with the results and even though it's a very small bottle it lasted me until I got my new conditioner.
River Island Rose Gold Heart Ring - I have been wearing this ring a lot last month and I am loving it. Its quite small and simple but that's what I love about it.
Bourjois Paris Eyeshadow in 08 - Another favourite is this beautiful eyeshadow which I use as a highlighter. Its a beautiful colour and I am loving it.
New Look Studded Dolly Shoes - I have been wearing these shoes a lot this month. I haven't had them for very long but I tried to make the most of them whilst the weather was relatively warm.
I hope you've enjoyed my first Month Favourites. I would love to see yours so leave a link to you post so I can check it out!

Wednesday Wishlist #2

Today's Wednesday Wishlist is cut into four sections, Fashion, Beauty/make up, Polish and my random wishlist.

My fashion wishlist is this beautiful River Island jumper. I've been really feeling the autumn cold this week and have been craving a baggy jumper to snuggle into. I love the colour and design of this jumper and I think it'll look great with a pair of coloured skinny jeans and some lovely warm boots!

 
My beauty/make up wishlist is this Mua Undressed eyeshadow palette. I have been reading a lot of blog post reviews recently about this palette and I would love to try it! It's meant to be a great dupe for Urban Decays Naked palette which is a whopping £36 which is ginormous compared to the measly £4 of this Mua palette. I'm really looking forward to trying this out!
On my polish wishlist this week is gorgeous dark green by Essie called Stylenomics and is part of Essie's fall collection. Last winter I was on the hunt for a dark emerald green but couldn't find one anywhere so this winter I've made it my mission to find one! This polish look great so I'm sure I'll be buying this soon!

 
 
Finally, my very random item on my wishlist today is a very tasty Belgium bun! Ive been craving one of these all week ever since i drove passed a Greggs last Thursday. Sadly, I've still not satisfied this craving so you might keep seeing it on my wishlist until i get one! Just looking at this picture if making me drool!

Wednesday Wishlist #1

Today's first ever Wednesday Wishlist is this beautiful pair of khaki jeggings. I love the colour of these jeggings as they are a great autumn/winter colour that are really on trend for this season. I also love the fact they are jeggings because they are much softer and easier to wear. This pair of jeggings was found on the River Island website for £35, a really great investment if you ask me!
