Loves Of Late ¦ October 2012 ¦

Good Morning Guys,

Once again I am sat up early because my dearest other half has to go to work early, however I see this as a great blogging opportunity! I have been catching up on my blog reading recently and I found ‘Loves of Late’ on Louise from SprinkleOfGlitter’s blog. And I absolutely thought the idea was amazing :) it made me smile so much thinking of everything that has been making me happy at the moment, so here we go! 

Wrapping up warm – I absolutely love it when it gets to autumn/winter! I am a bit of a scarf lover especially wooly scarfs! I have already swapped over all of my nice summery scarves for my knitted ones! I love fluffy socks and hoodies aswell! At last count I think I had 12 hoodies! (yes a little excessive I know!) I also loved it when last week I went to a bonfire at my local rugby club, it was my little brother’s 8^th birthday on the same day so there was a massive gang of us (including 7 other 8 year olds) and it was soo cold! I got all wrapped up warm and started to feel really Christmassy!

Candles - I have been spending a lot more time in my bedroom than normal, and I actually don’t know why! But I still have my Pink Sands Yankee Candles out in my bedroom because I haven’t been to get any more wintery ones yet! If anyone has any suggestions of wintery candles let me know :) I just think that when it’s dark at night, which is now early in the UK, I love sitting watching the TV or on my laptop with my candles burning :) it makes me feel warmer for some reason!

Cuddling up – again along the same lines at the previous one, Me and Chris (My boyfriend) haven’t been going out as much as we were recently so we have been staying in, watching TV and eating! *hehe* but we have also been watching films and stuff like that! And as its getting so cold now just staying in and cuddling up watching TV makes me very happy!

Cooking – this isn’t just because its winter! I absolutely love cooking full stop! However recently I have been loving making soup! Which I think is because its winter! Soup just makes you feel so warm and snuggly! It also makes me feel like I'm being healthy too! Seen as all I put in my soup is vegetables and stock :) *yay for being healthy* 

Sorting – yes this is very random I know! But I go through stages of being very ruthless and getting rid of loads of things out of my bedroom! And at the moment I am in this mode! Sorting out all my clothes and just general stuff (in other words, crap) since we moved house like 3 months ago there is still some stuff that I haven’t organised yet or even looked at! (I know how bad is that?!) but over these next few weeks it is going to be sorted out and organised.

So these are my things that I have been loving of late! I really enjoyed writing this post, it made me feel happy! And who doesn’t like feeling happy! :D What have you guys been loving lately? 

Lots of Love

Small Beauty Haul ¦ October 2012 ¦

Hi Guys,

Hope that you are all okay, so after going for a job interview this morning, me and my Nan decided to go and do a little bit of shopping! *hehe* I just wanted to get some stuff from Boots and Superdrug so here we go, 

Firstly I needed to stock up on some more facewipes, in Superdrug I found that these Simple facewipes were buy one get one free. These have always been my favourite ones to get but I just normally get whichever ones are on offer. So I was happy when I saw that these were.  

Then I got the Nivea Daily Essentials Express Hydration Primer, I have wanted to try this ever since I first saw it, so today when I was having a little shop fuddle I decided to cave and get it to see what it was like. I have read a lot of reviews of it so am very excited to see how it works for me. 

These next 2 things are a bit strange for a beauty haul but at the moment I have my wisdom teeth coming through :( *ouchhyyy* so I decided that I needed to get some ‘bonjella’ and some mouth wash to see if they would help. So, yea I'm not too sure what else to say about that!

This is definitely my favourite eye makeup remover I have ever used! To me it feels like I'm using water! It is the Garnier Simply Essentials Soothing Eye Makeup Remover. If you have seen any of my empties posts you will see it in there! I have been using it for a very long time! 

The Superdrug Naturally Radiant Brightening Hot Cloth Cleanser was a bit of a gamble for me to be honest. I am absolutely in love with the Boots No7 one but it has almost ran out, and when I saw this in superdrug for £2.99 (I think) I decided I wanted to give it a go! I'm sure there will be a review of it once I have given it a good test out.

I usually use the Sally Hansen Insta-dri top coat for my nails but recently I haven’t been able to find it anywhere! So today I found the Superdrug 2 in 1 Top Coat and Nail Hardener, I don’t know how good it is going to be but I thought I’d give it a go and see what it was like.

Next I got the Rimmel Glam Eyes Liquid Eyeliner, I got this for free because I spent over £6.99 on Rimmel in Superdrug. I don’t know if I am going to use this for myself or put it in my college makeup kit, I haven’t decided yet. 

This is the reason I got the Eyeliner for free. I have been looking for new foundations to put into my College makeup kit because I really don’t like the ones that came in it (even our tutor agreed that it wasn’t the best) and I decided that I wanted to try this Rimmel Match Perfection Foundation, I thought that I would get one for myself to try to see what it was like before I buy more colours for my kit. So I tried to match myself to the colour as best as I could. I am really looking forward to trying this out.

This is a massive repurchase, for about the 8^th or 9^th time! The Collection Lasting Perfection Concealer. I absolutely love this concealer and I always have to have it in my collection, I think that I am going to get some for my College kit as well.

Again another strange one but this seems to be the only deodorant that I can use the Dove Go Fresh Cucumber and Green Tea one, I have tried so many in the past but just keep going back to this one!

The Clinique Anti Blemish Solutions Foundation is my 100% favourite foundation that I have ever tried! I love all of the Clinique foundations I have tried but this one is the best for me! I didn’t actually buy this today; my Nan went and bought it for me yesterday because she went to Debenhams, reason being because they had the Bonus Time on until Saturday, she kindly gave me the Bonus Time bag as well! 

 In the Bonus Time Bag I got,

All About Eyes eye cream

Take The Day Off eye makeup remover

Mild Liquid Facial Soap

Blusher – Sunset Glow

Chubby Stick – Mega Melon

High Impact Mascara – Brightening Black

So this is everything that I have got recently, if you would like any reviews on any of these products please let me know! 

Have any of you got any recent haul posts? 

Lots of Love

OOTD ¦ Gorillaz Converse

Good Morning all,

I hope that you are all okay, I thought that I would drop in a morning blogpost for you all seen as I am awake early! (damn boyfriends having to be at work earlier than me) So last night I tweeted a picture of my Gorillaz Converse, which I absolutely love, so I thought that I would do an OOTD for you to show you what I was wearing them with!

Blazer – Matalan

Vest – New Look

Netted Top – Primark

Denim Shorts – Peacocks

Tights – Pretty Polly

Converse – Schuh

So I hope that you all like this outfit of the day, I don’t really do them very often because I don’t think that many people will enjoy my style but oh well, I think I might start doing them more often now! I know its not the most girlie outfit in the world but I am not always the most girlie person! Hehe.

Do you have days where you don’t feel like dressing really girlie?

Lots Of Love
