Cheeky little buys.

I'm just awful at saving money.
I'm going away in 17days... (yes i'm counting down)
I've only gone and bought a few more things.. They were mostly in the sale ;)

I also went to salon international yesterday (monday 17th october) I'd never been, it was crazy. But I got some lovely little samples of morrocanoil and there gorgeous hairspray! I'm not the type of person to push to get things... So my friend and I went and got a cuppa tea, while the rest of my friends fought there way to get bits and bobs. Madness. Bit too stressful for me ;)

The first little thing that I bought was a river island purse that I have wanted for absolutly ages! Its black and got a retro sort of design on the front. Its got a really bright coral lining. The one thing that really drew me to buying this was the cute little gold clips, (that i nearly caught my nail in) This was £17.

As I was already in river island it was rude not to look through the sale rail! I picked up this cute pinky/cream blouse. It's got an adorable bow and is simple enough to wear for daytime.. Or dress it up for an evening look... It was only £15! Its also the perfect colour to go with the shoes I got from next!

On sunday I wanted to check out the new big next about 35mins drive away from me. It was mega busy, after all it had only been open for a few weeks. I picked up two pairs of shoes.. Both were a reasonable price and I knew that I would wear them quite a bit.

The first pair are tan ankle boots. I am on my feet all day long at the salon so these are great. I can say that they are mega comfy as I wore them to London monday! They have sweet little buckles, I normally wear them with grey or cream thick socks when its really cold. I would advise to buy a half a size bigger if you do want to wear big socks with them. £26

The second pair were nude heels. They are really comfortable! I was surprised as normally they really aren't. They are square at the front of the shoe which i really loved, I find them easy to walk in and they will go with anything! (Really bad photos sorry)

In my last blog a couple of people really loved the £15 dress from miso-republic. I tried to get a photo of me wearing it, but its all out of focus and awful! I'l be wearing it out for my 18th, thats if i dont buy something else.. which I most probably will!
I know they are really bad photos but you should be able to see what its like! I want to find a skinny belt to go round the waist.. I think it needs it... What do you all think?

Thank you to all my 29 followers :')
Its really lovely knowing people read all of this... me babbling on!

Happy October!

Hello all of my 22 followers! Ahh thats crazy... never even thought I would have one.
September went by pretty fast for me.. its four weeks today til my birthday... SCARY stuff. I'm going shopping at Bluewater for the weekend for it... What a surprise right? I'm trying my hardest to save save save... so I can go on a mahooosive shopping spree... But I'm just no good at saving.... :(

I really wanted a navy blue gilet for this weird summer/wintery weather... So I found this gorgeous gilet from Republic and it was only £29.99p. The only thing that annoyed me was that I bought two other things aswell as this in the sale... I put down for it to be delivered on a saturday and it never turned up! So I'm still eagerly awaiting this...

I also got a black, one shouldered dress. I thought it would go with any colour heels, or accessories! I also love the floaty arm..... I'm not sure when I'm going to wear this.. Plus it was only £15.99p reduced from £20.00p!

The last thing from Republic I bought was a Cape Shirt... Its a lovely rust/burnt orange colour with a cute black collar. I think I will probably wear this with skinny jeans and wedges.... Thats if I like it... Normally I see things and just get them because they are in the sale... Its an obsession.... This was also £15.00p... But it seems to have been taken off the website... So I can't put a photo up :( I will put a photo up of me wearing it IF I like it and don't send it back.

H&M online has been so brilliant recently for beachwear. I'm hoping to go to Egypt next year on holiday and have been starting to collect bits and bobs already. I managed to buy a cute bikini for £3.98! Its white with adorable little beads on.. I always struggle to find bikinis when I actually need them, so I kinda grab them when I can.. Especially when they are at that price! (The bikini is white that I got but the only photo I could get was black)

I also bought a cute beach towel for £3.49 which was just crazy and a floaty little cover up dress.. I seriously couldn't believe the prices for all of the bikinis.. Wish I could of bought them all.







I picked up a few goodies while shopping on my lunch break yesterday... Superdrug ALWAYS has amazing deals or special offers, I love there new loyalty card too, you actually get money off unlike Boots.

I've wanted to try the Dove Intensive Repair Conditioner as I have seen this on the telly quite a bit. It was £1.29 which must of been the introductory price. I normally use my salons conditioner but decided to have a change and try this. Its quite thick and smells really lovely. I put quite a fair amount all over my hair and left for a good 3-4 minutes. My hair after felt really soft and actually controlable. I'l give it a week or two and will probably leave it on for a bit longer next time to let it work its magic.

On one of my last blogs I reviewed a Famous lipstick and nail varnish, I bought another one in shade 2 tres chic. Its a light purple shade and is very suttle, like my nail varnish I usually play it safe.. But decided to give this a try. I really like it, maybe not as much as the Pucker up red/orange, which was another shade I got in the Famous range. I've also read recently about Sleek make-up, so decided to try a lipstick which sounded gorgeous- Peaches and Cream, however I was slightly dissapointed, its very very orange, and not at all creamy. I think it looks pretty ridicoulous.. But I could wear it on Halloween if I go to a party dressed as a Pumpkin.. Which won't happen.

I also forgot to put in my last blog about these two pretty notebooks I got for college in Gloucster.. they are 1950 fashion magazine style and were only £2.99 for BOTH. I've done so much writing in them... what a nerd... Thats what my boyfriend called me anyway.

And finally my find of yesterday.. A pair of Stone/Taupe suede wedges.. That I have been looking for for ages. I was just strolling through New Look waiting for my friend to find what she was looking for when I walked past the shoe sale. These beauts were just there, staring at me. The only pair left. In my size. I could of like screamed, this never ever happens. Shoes in the sale are always the size 8-9 that won't ever fit me.. I'm in love with these, they probably would of been better if they were black but I'm really not going to complain and for only £15.00p


About a month ago my best friend took some photos of me with her new camera. They came out really sharp and you could really tell the differance between them to my ipod camera! Here is my mums favourite.. (How cringy)
Last thing.
Why are passport photos so bloody awful?!
Eurgh.
