Olaaaa Bonita's :) dunno why I got all spanish there but heyyyy its summer!! Talking about summer I took a bit of a blog vacation (work has been hectic) but I'm back attempting to be a blogger again!!
So I've done a Mini May Haul! How do you like my illustration?? (up top) I thought i'd try something new! Anyways I took a little trip to Primark not my usual shopping grounds I have to say i'm a bit skeptical about the quality but I suppose you cant really complain considering the price. I'm absolutley obsessed with tropical/leaf prints just now I have been since last summer!! I came across a cute little skirt today at a bargain price of just 9squid! I adore it!!! I'm going to team it with a white sleeveless blazer and a white lace bra-let and of course some white high heel sandals not the hooker type just a nice mid heel (all white errrrthang and all that). By the wayyy this picture (below) is from the dressing room when I tried it on I probably wouldn't team it with a black crop top never the less I've seen a lot worse!! As for sizing I took the skirt in a size 6 I'd say the sizing is pretty much true to size! What do you think?? Are you loving tropical prints as much as me?
Now this brings me on to these wonderful high heels! They are a very very good dupe of the Zara lace up high heels that came out last year. I did own these but I sold them on eBay and I have been pining for them ever since so when I seen these online I had to have them! Unlike the Zara version these are not real leather and they also have gold zips the Zara sole was also cream the sole on these are black! I still love them and for 22 quid you cant go wrong!! I bought these from My1stwish.com.
And last but by no means least... Alber Elbaz limited edition Lancome Hypnose Drama Mascara!! Now I bought this on Debenhams online on the 1st of May, Lancome were selling all of the Hypnose mascaras for just 10 quid to celebrate the 10 year Anniversary! I've not tried it yet but as soon as I do I will do a full review all I can say just now about this product is the bottle is very cute!!!!
If you have any questions at all about anything I have blogged just leave a little comment and i will get back to asap!! Hope you enjoy reading :) xox

Mini May Haul

First Blog Post - Pay Day Treats
Sooooooo... this is my first ever blog post (so go easy on me). Basically my blog is going to be about beauty, fashion and a little bit of lifestyle and by lifestyle I mean food (major foodie)!!
BEAUTY my focus on beauty will mainly be skincare reason being I have been through a lot with my skin and tested quite a few different products. When I say I've been through a lot I basically mean a few stubborn blemishes nothing serious so i really do feel for those who have serious skin problems and hope my blog will help people who have been in a similar or worse situation to myself. I'll also have a large focus on hair products and some other random beauty products.
FASHION I'm a major shopaholic/impulse buyer im the person that ends up posting 40 items on eBay a month because I've spent all my wages within a few days (so watch out for my eBay link). I'll be sharing outfit posts, the DO's and DONT's (i.e VPL my major pet hate and i'll never understand it for the month of Sunday!! For those who don't know what VPL means it may well apply to you and help is at hand).
Finally LIFESTYLE I have the appetite of a large rugby player so you will probably see a good amount of food posts from me! I like to think of myself as a fine diner (on pay day) but I'm the first to admit my absolute guilty please is a cheap cheeseburger from a burger van disgusting I know (unless your with me on this one).
So onto what my post is actually about sorry for going off on such a tangent... Here is a haul of some of the things I treated myself to in celebration of PAY DAY!
First things first two of my absolute must haves in life... Estee Lauder Day Wear Anti Oxidant Creme 50ml £40 & Estee Lauder Advanced Night Repair 30ml £48. These two products are literally the best thing since ASOS was founded. I've genuinely never used anything better on my skin I will go into a more detailed post about this with a full review if you buy two products just now as well you get a gift with purchase and if you go to boots you also get £10 worth of points with two purchases.
Secondly Office On top pointed High Heels in Light Pink £65. I'm not usually a light pink or just in general pink person but I absolutely fell in love with these. I love pointed heels just now and i think these are an absolute must have staple item. I love matching them with skinny jeans.
Which brings me onto my Topshop Super High Joni Jeans in White £36. This is actually the first pair of white jeans ive ever purchased. I love the Joni Jeans from Topshop simply because they are so comfy and I love everything high waisted so it kind of adds up.
I would like to think im leaving the best til last but then i would be taking credit away from Estee Lauder skincare soooo this is a close second. ZARA Pastel Faux Leather Jacket. I absolutely had to have this when I seen it I fell in love with the colour. This came to £69.99 and its worth every penny. I have found before with faux leather that its quite thin and has no heat this is the total opposite it feels really heavy and it actually feels similar to real leather.
Sorry if I've gave you a sore head, but I hope you've enjoyed my first post and hopefully this will be the first of many! Let me know what you think of the products/items or if you have any questions at all just holaaaa!!
