Summer OOTD

Hello Lovelies!

So after two days in the car with no wifi (it was tough), I finally arrived at the holiday apartment I'll be calling home for the next two weeks! Once I'd had a little explore this morning and stopped taking pictures of every palm tree in sight, I took advantage of the scenery to take a few snaps of today's outfit.

The Bodysuit: Missguided| I love this bodysuit and it was a bargain in the missguided sale! It's so comfortable which is definitely a plus in the heat! The back is quite low so I wear it with a bra with a clear back. I think it's perfect for summer, it can also be dressed up with heels or dressed down with jeans for a more casual look. 

The Shoes: Primark| I loveee these white strappy sandals, they're definitely one of my favourite Primark purchases. Because they're open toed I painted my toenails with the Barry M Gelly Polish in Green Berry, which happened to go nicely with the bodysuit I wore. I didn't bring many pairs of shoes with me because most of my time will be spent lying on the beach which doesn't really require footwear! 

The Skirt: Primark| I wear this skirt so much because it goes with pretty much anything! I personally think every girl needs a skater skirt in her wardrobe. I often find skirts are too big round my waist so the elasticated waist is a plus.

No doubt I'll be taking more snaps of my outfits in the next couple of weeks, so I'll post more when I'm not busy tanning!

Nails of the Week

Hello Lovelies!

At the moment I rarely don't have my nails painted, so it seemed wrong that I haven't done a nail polish post yet. Below are some of my favourite polishes, I have quite a few favourites which is probably why I paint my nails so often! Today I decided to try out my Barry M Gelly Polish in Prickly Pear because I haven't had chance to use it yet. Being the indecisive person that I am, I also painted one nail on each hand in a sparkly dark purple.

The dark purple is sparkly which the picture doesn't show very well. I haven't used it with another colour before, let me know what you think! 

Beauty Haul ft. Superdrug & Primark

This week is a month since I started my summer job, so today I decided to treat myself and picked up a few things from Superdrug and Primark that I've had my eye on for a while! 

1. Maybelline Color Tattoo: on and on bronze| £4.99

I've been wanting to try this for a while after seeing a lot of people using it, so I finally caved and bought it from Superdrug. I love love love the shade 'on and on bronze' and I'm really happy with it so far. I love the shimmer in it (the picture doesn't do it justice), I'm also really liking cream shadow at the moment because it's so easy to apply and blends well.  

2. Sleek blush: pixie pink| £4.49

This is another product I've been wanting for a while, and given that the lid came off one of my favourite blushes it seemed like a good excuse to buy a new one. I love how pigmented the sleek blushes are and this one really stood out to me. I bought a single blush as I didn't want to spend too much, but you can buy a set of 3 blushes for £9.99 at Superdrug, which works out better value if you want more than one. 

3. baby lips lip balm: peach kiss| £2.99

I've been loving baby lips at the moment and I already have 'pink punch' and 'cherry me' which I use all the time. I don't tend to go for bold lips on a day to day basis because I prefer to save it for a night out or more special occasion, so these are perfect for a hint of colour during the day.

4. Barry M Gelly nails: Green berry, Rose hip and Prickly pear| £3.99 I've heard a lot of good things about Barry M's gelly nail polish ,but I'd never found any colours I particularly loved in this range. I'm loving their more recent colours and today I actually had the opposite problem- I wanted all of them. Luckily they're currently 3 for 2 at Superdrug so I could justify getting my three favourites. I've already tried 'Rose Hip' and loved how the colour looked and how shiny this polish is so I'm looking forward to trying the other two. 

5. MUA Palette: Undress me too| £4

I don't often buy a lot of eye shadows but I love neutral tones so when I found this I fell in love. It comes with 12 shades including neutral tones, greys and metallics. I love the shimmery bronze colours and I think 'wink' and 'fiery' are my favourites so far. 

6. Mini flower crown| £2

I recently watched Sprinkle of Glitter's new video and loved the flower crowns she'd bought. I've never been a fan of the larger ones, mostly because I didn't think I could pull it off, but I love these small ones and think they look really pretty around a bun. I found this one in Primark for only £2 (it comes in other colours too!) I've also used it for pony tails which I think looks really pretty.

7. Makeup bag| £5

The other Primark item I picked up was a new makeup bag. For a while I've been using the same small makeup bag  and storing my growing collection of makeup has been getting difficult. Today I was on the  lookout for a new makeup bag and was drawn to this one straight away. It's big enough to keep all my makeup in and I really loved the little bow on the front. It was definitely well worth the £5!

Thanks for reading, I hope you enjoyed this haul!
