WEEKLY WISHLIST : NEW LOOK

Good Evening!

How was your weekend? Well, today it's Sunday which means Weekly Wishlist time! I am going to be looking at New Look items for my wishlist today, I do shop in New Look but, it is mostly just for essentials (tights,leggings,under tops) or accessories.








There you go, that is my Wishlist for New Look. To some of you, it may seem odd that I have placed some soaps in there, but these soaps smell absolutely gorgeous. The soap in the green bottle smells of mint, and leaves your hands feeling soft and moisturized.

 As usual I have placed in a Peplum Top but, on Wednesday I did manage to get a plain blue one from Topshop, however I really like the style of this one from New Look. Peplum tops seem to be in fashion, wherever I go I see people wearing them. Personally, I rather like them. Peplum tops look really nice with disco pants or wetlook leggings if you were going out somewhere, but if you just wanted to wear the peplum top shopping or to a friends house than you could style it with some plain black leggings or some jeans.

Dip Dye and Tie Dye is also in fashion this season. The great thing about dip dye and tie dyeing clothes is that you can do it yourself, and it won't cost very much. To tie dye and dip dye tops it is simple to do yet very effective, I see alot of people wearing tie dye and dip dyed tshirts with rolled up sleeves paired with jeans, creepers and a rucksack.

Personally, I like the look of dip dye and tie dyed clothing, it isn't everyone's cup of tea but it's certainly mine and I wouldn't mind owning something tie dyed or dip dyed.
Thanks for reading.




WHAT'S IN MY MAKE-UP BAG

Olá!  (Hello in Portuguese)

Today, I am going to be a doing the What's In My Make-up Bag tag, I will show you the products in my make-up bag, and tell you a bit about each. Also I'll find links to a website for the products incase you want to buy any.



My Make-up Bag:




 These products are what I use most of the time, but I don't use the bright pink lipstick, red lipgloss, Stay Matte foundation liquid, or the Elastic lashes mascara as much as everything else in my bag.

Starting from the Left we have the Bourjois Paris Mascara, I have 2 of these because it was an offer, but they are very good mascaras, and are handy backups.



Stay Matte Rimmel Foundation in Ivory-Number 100. I don't use liquid foundation because, I don't like the feel of it on my face, but it is good for covering up any blemishes.
Rimmel Lipstick in Pink Blush-Number 006. The colour of this lipstick is very pretty, and looks good when im going out somewhere, but as I am still in school we can't wear bright ,or vibrant lipsticks so it doesn't get used very much. 
Bourjois Paris 3D effect Lipgloss in Bright Red-Number 90. This creates a very shiny red lip, but like the Rimmel Lipstick-I can't wear this to school so it doesn't get used very often.
Benefit High Beam Highlighter. I love this product and use it quite alot, placing it below the brow gives a lovely glow to your face.
Ms.Makeup Brush. Having a big brush in your make-up bag is an essential, I use this daily for applying my powder and blusher, the brush is fluffy and doesn't feel rough on my face.
Rimmel Eyebrow Pencil in Hazel-Number 002. As I have ginger/blonde hair my eyebrows are fair and are hard to see, using this eyebrow pencil just to shade them in and shape my eyebrows to how I want is an essential to me, otherwise my forehead looks bigger without visible eyebrows.
Benefit They're Real Mascara. I'm sure you have all heard of this mascara, it is the top selling mascara and it works wonders. My eyelashes are also fair so using this makes them stand out, and become noticeable. I recommend this mascara to everyone, it is sha-mazing!
Rimmel Stay Matte Powder in Peach Glow-Number 003. I use this everyday just to give my face a clean look, but before I apply it I moisturize my face so that the foundation doesn't leave my skin looking cracked, or dry.
Rimmel Eyeshadow in Glam Ice-Number 100. Yes this is a bright white eyeshadow, but I don't use it on my lid. I put a little bit of the eyeshadow on the inner eye, doing this makes your eyes look more awake, and adds brightness to your eyes.
Benefit Blusher in Dandelion. I'm not one for collecting or having lots of blusher, but I purchased this because I want to add a little colour to my cheek. The blusher is a soft pink and feels very nice on the cheeks, it has a slight shimmer to it but not enough that it looks tacky on your face.

Thank you for reading, I hope you enjoyed it and maybe purchase one of these products.

TOPSHOP HAUL

Ciao!

I went shopping yesterday which means haul time! On my shopping trip, I went to quite a lot of shops, and bought quite a lot of things. The haul today will be on the Topshop items I purchased, and next Thursday I will do a haul on the other items.


As you can see I got 4 tops, 1 pair of shorts, a necklace, and some socks. Unfortunately the space rocket top was in the clearance section so it will be very unlikely you will be able to buy the top, aswell as the striped shorts. 

I adore Topshop, and all the clothes sold there are magnificent. The prices are quite high, but then again the clothes are in great quality and worth the cash. Also, Topshop are always up to date with the latest fashion and are always bang on trend, if you've never shopped at Topshop before-or even gone in it, I strongly recommend you browse around!

If you saw my Weekly Wishlist on Topshop I have managed to purchase 1 of the tops on there which was the Roll Back Crop Tee, but I did get a shorter version of the Stripe Trousers.

The space rocket top may not be everyone's cup of tea, but I think it's super cool. The top is quite unusual and I haven't seen many people out and about wearing a similar top! When I first picked up the top I wasn't too sure what I would wear it with, but I wear it with some jeans or some plain leggings. If I were to wear the top with patterened leggings or coloured jeans, it would be too much and most likely clash.

Topshop are most popular for supplying people with the cutest socks ever. The frilly socks that are sold in Topshop are adorable, the amount of pairs I own is unreal. They have so many different colours, if I could own all the colours/styles I would! I wear mine with creepers, and as I have plain black ones all the colours and style of socks go with them.


 If you don't own a pair of frilly socks from Topshop I suggest you go out and buy them, sometimes they do offers like 3 socks for £5 which is good considering the socks are really lovely!


Short Story
Basically, whilst mum and I were browsing in New Look, I found a bag that I liked and wanted to buy, so I put it on my arm. We went up to the till to pay for the other items then left- unnoticably I had walked out with the bag that I didn't pay for, so we quickly ran back to the queue and paid for it, phew! (None of us are thieves). Thank-god I noticed that it was still on my arm otherwise we would have been taken to the Police Station to be questioned for theft!

Thank you for reading, overall the shopping trip was a success and I am pleased with what I purchased.
