H&M Hand in Haul

Had a cheeky haul in H&M after handing in two projects yesterday! I handed in another today, so only one more to go next week and second year is over! I can smell the summer!

This dress is a really nice dusky grey. Love the aztec top and floaty skirt. Grey tends to wash me out but I really wanted a cool dress for this weather, and I think with a bright necklace and bag it will look smashing - and it was a bargain at £14.99.


A bit of a copy of the Topshop rolled sleeve tees, but I love the colour. It's a really vibrant purple. I have so many patterned skirts that I really needed a plain t-shirt to wear them with. I'm sure I'll be buying this in a few colours. £7.99.

Ikea Haul

Me and my lovely housemate went to Ikea yesterday! I love Ikea!

I really needed a bookcase, but I couldn't help picking up a few things on my way around! I also bought stuff for my friends leaving present and my mum's birthday which I can't post on here yet.


Love the mirror! It's just so cute! And I'm going to use the candle holder as ring storage. 


I also bought a weekly planner from Paperchase; trying to get prepared for my third year of uni next year. I'm hoping to organise my time better next year.

And finally, the cutest nail decorations in the shape of fruit! 


I tried putting them on my nails, but to be honest, they look a bit strange. They aren't bendy enough to fit nicely on a nail. However, I've decided I'm going to attach them to my bright pink phone case. I'll post pics when I've done it!

Sunday Beauty Buys

Today's Beauty Haul! 

1. Johnson's Facial Wipes,  £1.50 (discounted from Tesco)

2. Revlon Photoready Perfecting Primer, £11.99

3. MUA Undress Your Skin Shimmer Highlighter, £3

4. Barry M Nail Varnish in Nude (No. 342), a gift

So, today I was looking for a new Primer as my L'Oreal one has come to an end. I'd heard some good things in the blogging world about Revlon's Photoready range and thought I'd give their Primer a go. 

I've only had a brief test of the products so far (I'll review them properly in some upcoming blogs), but the Primer seems really soft on the skin and very smooth. It's a bit thicker than the L'Oreal Primer but I think this can only be a good thing as after a while the previous product did become watery and you needed more of it to cover your face.


I've been looking for something to brighten up my skin tone and contour my cheekbones at the same time so I went for this highlighter by MUA. There are a fairly cheap brand with some good bargains, I thought it would be best to go for a cheaper alternative before I decide if a highlighter works for me! 



As you can see, I've gone for a very nude theme this Sunday! Freshy, nude and dewy skin is very S/S '13. It's all about young looking skin, rosy cheeks and pink glossy lips. My mum kindly bought me this gorgeous nude colour from Barry M. It will work great as a base for a french manicure or with glitter topcoats! 

Have a great week readers!
