Sales Haul

Hello beauties!

These past few weeks I've been shopping like crazy especially for shoes. I only buy shoes when they are on sale as normally they are quite expensive so I was super happy when I came across these three babies which were all on sale.


Dorothy Perkins Loafers - €14 

Stradivarius flats - €10 instead of €25

I love these particularly as all my flats are either brown or black and this can add a very autumny pop of colour to my wardrobe, which matches most of my earth tone clothes.

Random shop - €5 (!!!)




I have been wanting a structured hand bag for ages as all the bags I own are very flimsy, so since Accessorize are on sale I decided to pop in there and see what they have. I came across this beautiful bag which was €29 instead of the original €59. I love it as it is both black and brown so it matches with almost all of my shoes.




Have you bought anything on sale? Tell me what below!

First impressions: Inglot cream concealer

Hello Beauties!

The only makeup products that I really splurge on are face products. I have always believed that you could do a great look with inexpensive eyeshadows (my very maximum budget for single eyeshadows would be €4 - €5, unless its a neutral eyeshadow that you can wear with almost every look and occasion) but, I think that you cannot make a foundation or concealer which is not of the perfect consistency and coverage for your skin's needs work well and look good, so that's why i permitted myself to spend €16 on a teeny tiny jar of concealer :)

To make a long story short I had been looking for a concealer that actually worked and matched my skin tone for ages, and I was going to buy MAC's studio finish concealer but having taken into consideration, that i'll have to first send it to an english friend and then she send it to me, it would come even more expensive than Inglot's cream concealer which retails for €16, and i wouldn't have the opportunity to at least swatch it, or see that it matches my skin prior to dishing out the money.







So yesterday I was in Sliema and I decided to go and buy myself a cream concealer. When I first went in   I didn't think that I would buy this concealer because of two main reasons:

a. It looked horrible in the container out of many uses
b. It looked too liquidy and melted

When i tried it however, i did change my mind, because it has a very sticky consistency (which I figured would mean that it has a very long lasting power on the skin), a very yellow undertone and AMAZING coverage.

I haven't yet tested it on my face, so I will give you more information when i actually do, but I am really hoping that it works for me!

Have any of you tried this out? What were your thought?

Mary Poppin's Purse

Hello beautiful people!

How are you all? Today, I made a little lists of blog posts to come as i sometimes get stuck with lack of ideas about what to write so this little list will hopefully help me more. Today I decided to do a "what's in my bag" post. I love to see these kind of posts on other people's blogs as I feel like you both get to know the person a little bit better and you can get a few ideas on what to carry with you.

Here is my bag:



This bag is by Accessorize and I got it for €25 when it was on a 50% off sale and it's my favorite out of all my day time bags. I love it so much because of the hardware detailing and the colour which is a nudish pink which goes with almost everything.

Here is what's inside it:


O'Neill pencil case, Pukka pad notebook (I write school notes on here when I don't take my laptop with me),  Vaseline hand cream (AMAZING stuff), Peacocks sunglasses & glasses pouch, Handbag hanger, Samsung Chat phone, Tissues, Makeup bag, Halls (for sore throat), Stradivarius wallet, house keys with Me to you and glass slipper key chain.



My "Makeup" bag is more like a medicine chest in a bag! I don't really carry makeup with me except some lip balm and the days lipstick because i never touch up.

What do you hold in your bag ladies?

NotW - The smoked teal

Hello beautiful people!

How are you all? Today I had a day off school so I decided to give myself a manicure after around two months of not wearing any nail polish and having ugly uneven nails. So here is what I went for:



The nail polish is smokey brown from ELF and the crushed shells are from eBay. I just polished my nails as per usual and dipped my ring fingers into the shells and then put a top coat over everything.

Do you guys like teal and brown together? I absolutely love them!

Little Treasures

Hello all!

Long time, no blog! I've been - and still am, extremely busy. And when you are that busy sometimes you just need to go shopping, even if it's just for one or two things!

So last Monday I decided to visit the shops and hunt for some bargains (all these were on sale). I primarily went for some plain and warm long sleeved tops and ended up buying these instead:


Tally Weijl - €4.50
New Look Granny Cardi - €11


And any shopping trip wouldn't be complete without a few pieces of jewelry of course!

Peacocks - €4.50
And to the highlight of my little shopping spree:

Peacocks - €4.50
Aren't these earrings simply beautiful?! And they are turquoise which is my all time favorite colour! I totally love them!

Have you been doing any shopping lately? Tell me below!
