Topshop haul

I got paid at the weekend (finally!) so I decided to do a Topshop haul (yaaay!) and show you what I bought. Topshop is a bit over prices but I just can't help myself I always find something I love every time I go in store. 

Firstly I bought these amazing patterned light blue jeans, which are super cute and fit my body shape really well, I often find that because I am a size 8/10 (UK size) on the bottom and 8 (UK size) on the top, that jeans are too baggy on my waist and I am constantly pulling them up *so annoying* but these fit really well. They also look and feel expensive which is just an extra bonus!

Then I decided to buy a white blouse/top as they go together really well, this would make a great summer outfit (I just hope we get some sunshine this year *come on weather*) The material is really comfortable and at first I thought that the frilly sleeves would become really annoying however this top fits well and looks good on.

I then went onto the dresses, to be honest I am not really a dress person but I have been wanting to push my boundaries and get my legs out for once so I picked up this cute two layer dress, which are really in at the moment. I am a big fan of lace and it adds that little bit of  extra detail to this dress without being to over the top. 

I was also surprised to become really found to this baby pink two layer lace dress which I think also comes in light yellow and light green. It is a smart dress perfect for a night out. It is quiet short but with some leggings or tights you would make it less daring.

 

Last but not least I bought this green knit cardi as I really needed something to go with my black shorts and white lace crop top. I know this is weird but I am actually allergic to wool  but this cardi contains no wool so I can ware this cardi with comfort (yaaay!)

Have you got any Topshop Favorites?

Life in LUSH

I went to Lush last week and bought a few bits and bobs, I did have to restrain myself  thought (well actually Matt had to drag me out the shop before I bought anything else, haha!) 

Money seems to have a way of burning a hole in my pocket, I always have a way of spending it! sadly this has effected my now non existent car fund (oops!)

I have wanted to try something a bit different to the usual products on offer in Lush so I tried the Gorilla vanillary perfume, yeah I know what a weird name! But with all seriousness this product is AMAZING, obviously smells of vanilla but its main qualities are that it  makes you feel clean and fresh but at the same time lasts for ages and does not have that overpowering smell.

Then I bought the popcorn lip scrub which is a really effective product, you simply use you finger to rub the lip scrub in which softens your lips after you can lick off any excess but for me the popcorn one had a horrible taste so let it down. There is a bubblegum version which tastes great, so it is really down to own preference. I find that because this product is so compact it is great for going out when you can quiet literally apply and go!

In the shop I asked one of the lovely shop assistance (sadly I can't remember her name) if she could recommend a product for dry lips as sadly I am prone to very dry lips especially in the winter months :( , but to my delight she recommended a great lip balm, a product which had done wonders for my lips it is called 'Ultrabalm, all purpose balm' which really does do what it says on the tin; restores, soothes, protects, relieves and moisturises.

The last item I bought was a colour supplement which is effectively a light coverage foundation which can be used with a moisturiser. I bought this product in 'light yellow' which is great for fairer skin tones, but there are many in the collection if you have a lighter or darker complexion and is the closest if not perfect colour for my skin tone at such a cheap price of £9.25 a pot (compared to my usual Nars foundation in 'Mont blonc' which costs £31 which is quiet a lot for a foundation)

Do you have any Lush favorites? or
Any products that you would recommend?
