Fashion and Beauty Haul...

Haul...



Make up...

£5


First I have this Models Own eye shadow which is called Silver & Silver Sparkle. This style eye shadow has always scared me a bit because I've never thought they can be used much as it just looks like big pieces of glitter. However, it is really sparkly but the big pieces of glitter kind of break down so it just goes onto the eyelid like a powder with glitter in it. I think this would be a good product to wear for a party because of how glittery it is.

£5

Top- Silver
Bottom- Purple

This second thing is another eye shadow by Models Own. It is one of their duos called Disco Diva DE008 which is a silver and purple. These are again really nice colours for parties and are not as dark as they look. As you can see from the swatch they are just purple and silver shimmers really.

£6
This mascara is honestly one of the best mascaras I have ever used! It is the Hi Definer Lashed-Up Volumiser by Models Own. Before i found this mascara my favourite was Bad Gal Lash by Benefit and this is very similar. They have the same shape brush so i think that's what makes them  so similar but this Models Own one is £6 and the Benefit one is £18.50! It adds thickness and volume witgout leaving clumps so is definitely worth trying!

£4
This is the Models Own Eye Shading Brush. It is really good for getting under the brow bone and in the crease and so is perfect for a smokey eye which is what I used it for today!

Nails...



If you have read the summer nails post I did then you will no how i feel about Angelica nail varnish so ill just say THEY ARE STILL AMAZING!! I got a Top Coat and a peach called Iced Sorbet which is from the Soft Satin Matt Effect collection. Its not as orange as it looks on the bottom picture its more of a pretty pastel peach.

Clothes and shoes...



The skirt i got was from the River Island sale. It was £10 from £22. Its cream lace and had a brown belt and gold buttons. The buttons are up the front which makes it a bit more unique. So you can see it fully I wore a white bandeu from New Look which you could probably wear  if your confident enough. If not a white crop top or vest top or a black vest top will also look nice.

£4

These black loafers are from Primark. I'm not sure how long they will last as they were just £4 but they will look nice with a skirt and to start back at school with my skirt in September.

Thank you for reading my first haul post! I hope you enjoyed!

Small note...

So posts will hopefully become more regular because me and Alicia have finished school for the summer until Wednesday 4th September so we will have more time. I have been working on a fashion post that has taken for ever! But hopefully it will be up next week some time. Alicia went on holiday today (lucky thing) so its just me for a while but expect some holiday themed posts when shes back!

Work Experience Week....


Last week was work experience week and I thought I would share my different outfits that I wore through out  the week.For my work experience placement  I went was work in an office with people that dealt with the admin side off stuff which basically was dealing with the elderly's money and giving it out to them and I was also put in with someone to sort out which people need urgent care and some that just needed reviews and honestly I loved it.


First day......Monday

On the first day I wore my normal black trousers which I normally wear for school which are from New Look I wore a white see through blouse with little black flowers on the top part and this was from Primark . And I wore a little white tank top underneath as I was on reception.

This is what I wore on Thursday which was a black skirt which was from Dorothy Perkins  with thick black tights which were from Dorothy Perkins  as well, the top I wore was a baby pink camisole top from Topshop.
Then I just added this heart shape necklace with a pearl in the middle which is from Forever 21 and again I used the same bag wore the same watch and the same shoes.


Fourth Day.....Friday and Last day

On the last day there was a party for one of the girls leaving and I also finished early so I did not dress up much so  what I wore was just something very simple but girly as well.

I wore the same skirt and tights and also wore the peplum heart shirt again and just tucked the peplum bit in to my skirt and honestly it looked really girly and looked like it  a dress.( Shirt is from New Look Skirt is from Dorothy Perkins )

Again I wore the same watch same shoes from New Look and the same bag:)


Overall I honestly really enjoyed my work experience and everyone in the office was lovely and I had a nice sending off and so did some other people that went on in to further jobs and it was also a lovely day which just topped the week off.
