Haul Post

Hi guys, I figured I'd do a haul post as I went shopping the other day for the first time in a while and I really like what I bought.

Topshop Joni Ripped Jeans


I have been wanting some ripped jeans from topshop for AGES and I finally have some (YAY) I got the black Joni ripped jeans and they are so comfortable I could live in them! Love these jeans so so much and I can't believe it's taken me so long to buy a pair. 10/10


H&M Dress


I have also wanted a dress for ages and I have finally found one I like. It's super comfortable and I am really looking forward to wearing it. It's got a black and white pattern and the top part is fairly tight fitting and the bottom half is a skater skirt. Overall I'm really pleased with this buy but I'm gonna have to look for a light jacket/cardigan that will go with it. 9.5/10


Real Techniques Expert Brush


This is my first real techniques brush (actually my first make up brush because I normally use a sponge). It's so soft and fluffy and I think it will help with my not to good make up skills. It's so easy to apply foundation with and so easy to blend and it is pretty quick too which will be good getting ready for college in the morning. 10/10


Bourjois 'Healthy Mix' Foundation


I'd been needing to get a new foundation for a while and I'm soooo glad I got this. I have the concealer and I really like it so I figured the foundation would be good too. It's quite light and doesn't feel sticky/heavy on your face and it is so much better for coverage than my current foundation. I'm a bit hopeless when it comes to getting the right colour and when I got home I realised it's actually about 2 shades lighter than my conceler (whoops) but it's not actually too pale, I think it will be in the summer though. 9/10

Revlon Colourburst Balm Stain in 'Honey Douce'


I like the colour of this lip stain because it's not to bright or dark, I wanted a lip colour that was fairly neutral as I don't think I can pull off bold colours and this is perfect. It does wear off and leaves a brighter pinkish colour but it still looks nice. It has a minty smell to it which is quite nice too.

So yeah that's everything I bought and I'm very pleased with it all (my bank account isn't though, oops) For once I went shopping and didn't have 'buyers regret' which is a bonus.

Let me know if you have any of the products above and what you think of them :)

H&M Skirts


 Hi guys at the moment I'm really loving H&M's basic skirts.
   They are inexpensive (£3.99) which is great if you're shopping on a budget, and great quality for money. The fabric is fairly soft and it's stretchy so even if your feeling a bit bloated you don't feel really restricted.
   I'd been looking for some nice skirts for a while and I loved the dark grey one so much that I went back and bought 2 more, grey and maroon. They go with pretty much everything, so you get loads of outfits with not much cost.

   I wear them all with a mixture of things from oversized shirts to crop tops but there are certain looks I prefer with the different colours. I tend to pair the maroon skirt with a cream jumper and leather jacket, whereas the grey skirt I'm currently loving with a stripy crop top and a thin cardigan.    I've been wearing them throughout autumn/winter and I think they are more suited to the colder seasons because the colours are autumnal and if you're feeling like a cozy day it's quite easy to pop on some thick tights and a warm jumper. That said I am looking forward to the spring/summer and finding new ways to wear them.
   I did tend to wear jeans constantly but I don't really feel that confident wearing them at the moment because I'm feel that they aren't really fitting me properly. These skirts are so simple and fit so well that I'm much more confident wearing them.
   Being at college 5 days a week means having to find a different outfit everyday but the versatility of these skirts means finding different outfits is relatively quick and easy.
   I totally recommend these skirts and I wish they had more variations of them because I would be down at H&M, asap.
