My Recent Buys

(click photos to enlarge)

Good afternoon lovelies! I am sorry I don't blog as often anymore but in all honesty I often really just can't be bothered (at least I was honest). It takes me a long time to take the photos then edit and upload them so it often puts me off I think. I'm also sorry If I haven't commented on anybody's blog recently I do read them all still, I've just been lazy so I should really start commenting again!

But anywhooo today I thought I would show everybody some of the things I have bought over the past few weeks with my Christmas money. The No7 skincare set was from the Charity Shop that I volunteer in for £2.99 obviously it was still sealed and hadn't been used. The candle was from Sainsbury's and it smells amazing, I think it's figs and something else that I can't remember haha! The studded clutch bag was from Primark, the foundation was from Savers and to was on offer for £4.98.

I want to start blogging more frequently again so here are a few ideas of posts that I have had so let me know if you would be interested in them. I have ombred my hair recently so I could do a post on that as I have realised that I haven't put a photo of myself on my blog for a while (not that I look very different but still. I could do a very late post of my new years resolutions which so far I have managed to stick too, or I could just do an update on me and what I'm up to now?

A few little buys

 I bought this lovely lilac nail polish the other day, it is in the shade 'lucky lilac' and is by No7. I'm sure you all know about the boots No7 vouchers that give you £5 off, so I used this to buy my nail polish which made it only £2, bargainous! It's a beautiful colour and comes out exactly the same as it appears on the bottle (I hate it when they look a really nice colour in the bottle, but when you use it it's completely different), the only thing I would say is that the brush is quite big for my short and stubby nails, but if you have long nails then I guess you would have no problem there. I have been trying to grow mine and they did get quite long, but then whilst at Disneyland I caught one and it ripped, so I then decided they were just annoying me and bit them all off! (regretting it now)

 Gold bangles from H&M - £3.99

 I love these silver feather earring and have been eyeing them up in H&M for a while and I finally caved and bought them. They were £2.99, but after seeing similar ones all over tumblr I really wanted some.

 

This yin and yang t-shirt was also from (guess where?) yep you guessed it.... H&M! It was something I have wanted for a while but never actually bought it. It was £7.99 and I really like it, however the material is very thin, but I think it's supposed to be like that.

I also just thought I would mention that next Monday I will be having an operation on my big toe (lol) and I'm not supposed to put any weight on it for 2 weeks, so expect a lot of blog posts as I'm probably going to be quite bored indoors, but anyway after grossing you all out I'm off to make my lunch now (cous-cous and chopped veg, I think my diets going well, I even turned down a McDonald's breakfast SHOCK HORROR!)

I Love Carboots

Easter is over... so you know what that means? CARBOOT TIME!  I do love car boots, especially when I find a bargain. Admittedly sometimes they are full of junk or just things from house clearances but occasionally you spot a jem. Today I went to the first one of this year and I found a few little things that caught my eye! What are the best things that you have found at a car boot? Let me know in the comments, and there is a little extra at the end!

This Rimmel eyeshadow was in a box of 5 things for £1. It's not something I would have normally bought but I couldn't find a 4th item so I thought why not?

 These were also in the box of 5 things for £1 and so was the little black pot and the makeup bag below. The colour trend lipstix is by Avon, (I hadn't realized this at the time)

 

I bought this little matte black glass pot to put my makeup brushes in.

 

 Rose truffle, Siren, Totally Teal

I have never tried a No7 nail polish before, I don't know why but I never look at the No7 counter either. Perhaps I should! But anywhooo  the two on the left were 50P for both! They look quite similar in the photo but the one in the middle called Siren is definitely much more red, whereas the Rose ruffle is a much softer pink. The totally teal polish was 50p and is a mini one.

 This pretty little hanging heart was only 30p! I love things like this to hang in my room.

 

And here is the little surprise, (he wasn't from the car boot, don't worry!) This is the little kitten I mentioned in my last post, we got him yesterday and I just love him. When we went to pick him up there was also a little tiny black kitten who was just a few weeks old, I wanted to get him too, but he would have be too little to be around are bigger cats. We have now changed the name of this little black cat from 'Inky' to 'Pickle', purely because we have another cat called Indie who is a bit daft to say the least, so we thought he would get confused when we call them. I hope you like him, and don't forget to let me know what your best car boot buys have been!
