20 Questions Tag

Hi again guys! Can't believe it's Humpday again already! Busy busy!

I'm back with another tag that I stumbled across online, I'm really enjoying these tags at the minute, it's nice to interact a little bit more! Let's get going then shall we?

1. Thing you cannot leave the house without?

Definitely my phone, I literally couldn't leave the house without it.. It's not necessarily that I'm obsessed with it or anything but I just feel safer knowing I have it with me just incase anything would go wrong!

2. Favourite brand of make up?

With an ever growing makeup collection this is a really hard one! I'll do one high end and one high street.. High street would definitely have to be MUA, I just can't say no to their prices, and the products are generally really good! High end has to be MAC, too many of their products have now become my holy grail so it's really the only choice I can make!

3. Fave flowers?
I'm really not into particular flowers, I don't really know what they are..  I like roses obviously but I tend to think of them as being something you get when you're in a relationship! You'll have seen this pic on my blog from Sunday's post but I recently bought myself some flowers in Tesco as a treat to myself, I don't know what they are, but they're pretty! 

4. Favourite clothing stores?

Dorothy Perkins, Topshop, Boohoo, Primark, H&M.. They're my main shops!

5. Fave perfume?
At the minute it's definitely Glam Jasmine by Michael Kors. It's so nice and easy to wear at any time of the day! I did smell Daisy Dream by Marc Jacobs at the weekend and it was beaut, it may be my next perfume!

6. Heels or flats?

I love how good heels look but I hate how they feel.. For me it probably has to be flats, and specifically trainers!

7. Do you make good grades?
I am blessed with quite a photographic memory so I do generally get good grades!

8. Fave colours?
Pink and Turquoise! Still a 5 year old girl inside really ;-)

9. Do you drink energy drinks?
If I'm KNACKERED, and I mean I have to be falling asleep on my feet I would, but as a whole I try not too!

10. Do you drink juice?
I do drink juice, Ribena is my favourite :)

11. Do you like swimming?
Meh, if I had to exercise (which I should..) it wouldn't be my first choice!

12. Do you eat fries with a fork?
I do, I'm a weirdo and I have had the mickey taken out of me a lot, but if I get a takeaway fish and chips.. I have to eat it on a plate with a knife and fork!

13. What’s you’re favourite moisturiser?

Favourite moisturiser definitely has to be my Origin's Make a Difference + Rejuvenating Moisturiser, it's done wonders for my skin and I really notice a difference when I stop using it and use another instead!

14. Do you want to get married later on in life?
Yes definitely, but just not for a longggg, longgggg time. 

15. Do you get mad easily?

It depends on what I'm getting mad about.. With other drivers I get mad easily, I have crazy road rage, but most other things it takes me a while to get annoyed!

16. Are you into ghost hunting?
NOPE.

17. Any phobias?

Ice, freezers, rats, mice.. Those are the main ones. My skins creeping even thinking about it!!

18. Do you bite your nails?
I used to when I was younger but not anymore, one day I woke up and decided to stop and never did it again!

19. Have you ever had a near-death experience?
Thankfully not, nothing major has ever happened me!

20. Do you drink coffee?
I used to be partial to a Starbucks Caramel Macchiato but since starting work at Nestle I'm obsessed now.. Instant coffee, coffee from my coffee machine, iced coffee.. I LOVE IT ALL.

Hope you enjoyed this tag, I thought the questions were nice easy reading!
I tag anyone who reads this to do it and leave me a comment when you've completed it!

Thanks for reading!!

"Shopping Is My Cardio" - Pt. 2.

I'm back with Part 2 of my rather large Christmas Sales haul!

I'll get stuck straight in, and once again I'll try and post links to anything that's still available online!

New Look Blue Platform Shoes, No7 'The Eyes Collection', Origins 'Make A Difference Rejuvenating Set', Soap & Glory 'Powder Trip', Muse Neon Green Chain Necklace & New Look Blue Double Ankle Strap Heels.

The loveliest, most beautiful thing that has EVER touched my skin. I tell no lies, this is amazing!! I stumbled upon this in Boots the sale section, not expecting it to BE in the sale, but it WAS! £19.33 for ALL of this!! That is a FULL SIZE moisturiser that costs £34.00 alone!! It smells beautiful and refreshing on your face! It contains the 'Make A Difference Plus + Rejuvenating Moisturiser', 'Make A Difference Plus + Rejuvenating Treatment Lotion', 'Make A Difference Rejuvanting Hand Treatment' and the 'Drink Up Intensive Overnight Mask'.  I'm just head over heels in love with it all. The overnight mask is my favourite, I just want to use it everyday, my face is loving it! If you can, go to Boots, nosey about and I hope you will stumble across this beauty. :) 

This little lovely kit was £6, I really couldn't leave it behind! It has 3 Limited Edition No7 eyeshadows, a No7 eye colour brush (A MAC 217 BRUSH DUPE - HOLY SHMOKES) and a No7 smokey eye brush! The shadows don't have names but check out the swatches below :) The eye colour brush  and the smokey eye brush are £7.25 each so the full kit with 3 additional eyeshadows for £6 is a steaaaaal. 

I told myself I didn't need this palette, I reassured myself when I got home that I didn't need this palette.. A few days later I turned off a motorway on the way home from a shopping excursion at 7pm at night to get this palette. Some may say I have issues, I just say I'm dedicated. 

The Soap & Glory 'Powder Trip' was £10 down from £20, and contained 3 of their legendary face products, 'Solar Powder' (bottom left), 'Glow All Out' (top left) and 'Love at First Blush'  (top right) alongside a half-moon powder brush. Solar Powder was my FIRST ever bronzer and I adored it, even when I was a makeup virgin.. So I wanted it back in my life whenever I seen this kit! I was worried that it would be bulky but compared to having 3 individual powders it's actually a lot easier! The three individuals also have a hefty £33 price tag, so all three for £10 is a steal. It's still online, buy it now. You won't regret it. ;-)

This was my New Years Eve outfit! All sale bargains (except the shoes but that's okay!) 

Top - River Island Black Abstract Floral Turtle Neck Body - £5

Skirt - F&F Leather Mini Skirt - £5

Necklace - Muse Neon Green Chain Necklace - £5

Earrings - Topshop Chunky Chain Hoops - £4

Shoes - Blue Cross Strap Chunky Platform Shoes - £27.99

I'm pretty chuffed with this outfit, considering the top and skirt only cost me £10! The accessories are more expensive than I would generally buy but the shoes are so comfy I know I will get SO much wear out of them.

The other New Look shoes I bought aren't in the sale online but they were £8! I didn't think I could wear the strappy style shoes but they're so comfy. Perfect interview or night out shoes.. You'll last all day no matter what you're doing!

I also treated myself to my first online Illamasqua purchase! I bought the Light Liquid Foundation in Shade LF140. I did struggle to find the shade I should buy but I recommend googling swatches in comparison to other foundations you own, there's enough beauty bloggers out there someone will have what you're looking for! The foundation is so lovely!! And it smells like vanilla, I'm in love! Really good coverage for a light foundation and turned out it was the exact match for my skin! It's a bank breaker at £27 usually for 30ml, but for a tenner in the sale its great! Free p&p as well! Brilliant! 

Finally, just a pic of my nails that I rocked on New Years Eve, for approximately 1 hour because I'm pretty sure by the time it hit midnight I only had 3 left...

Hope you enjoyed my splurges!

I'm seriously considering cutting up my bank card.

NO MORE SHOPPING.

Everyone, say it with me!!!

Have a lovely week guys and I'll talk to you sooooon! :)
