Summer Favourites

Hi guys!

Today I will be talking all about my summer favourites. Summer is almost over so I thought it would be good to show you guys some of the things I have been loving this year!





First up is the Black Cami dress from Primark. This cost me £5 and it is one of the best purchases I have ever made. I even bought it in white because I love it so much! I wear it with a little bandeau underneath because otherwise it is kinda see through and I don't want to flash my boobs too much! I tend to wear this with sandals and a little cardigan, great for hot weather and I've worn it a lot this summer!

Next is the Nirvana vest top from Primark which cost me £8. It has a really cool twisted back and it looks really nice with a bandeau or cami top underneath. It looks good with skinny jeans or a pair of shorts, depending on the weather. This has been one of my go to looks recently as it is so comfortable to wear, especially on really hot days (not that we've had many) and goes with pretty much anything.

Next up is the Vera Wang Rock Princess perfume. I absolutely love this perfume. It actually belonged to my mum initially but she was really nice and gave it to me as she didn't wear it very much. This perfume has 'notes of peach, raspberry and bergamot; heart notes of heliotrope, rose, jasmine and lily; and bottom notes are cashmere wood, musk, iris, and coconut'. The peach and lily notes really come through and make this perfume great for days or evenings. This costs £22 on Amazon for 100ml, so really not bad at all for a great perfume which has a scent that lasts all day!

Fourthly is the Seventeen Instant Glow Shimmer Brick which sells for £4.99 at Boots. I love this shimmer brick as the shades are all gorgeous and give a really subtle glow to your skin. There are 4 different shades in the palette and they all blend together to give a great effect on your skin. I hate bronzers that make your skin too dark as I am very pale and usually bronzers make me look like I've had a fake tan disaster! This one however, blends well with my skin and just gives me a nice glow. Definitely a must have this summer!

Next is Rhubarb and Vanilla Body Butter from Wilkinsons. I absolutely love the smell of this product! It lasts all day and makes your skin feel so soft. I was unsure when I first bought it as it was so cheap (99p); I didn't think it would be that brilliant but I was so wrong. I now own this body butter in Strawberry and Pomegranate and Blueberry and Grape too because I can't get enough of the scents. I have had loads of compliments since using this and it shows that you don't need to spend a lot of money to get a great product!

Next up is the Raspberry and Vanilla Milk Original Source shower gel. This product smells bloody lovely and the smell lasts for most of the day. This product makes your skin smell amazing and really soft and gives me a great boost in the morning. I actually look forward to using this product as it makes me feel really confident. I will definitely be using this product for the rest of the year.

Finally, the Brown Gladiator Sandals from Primark, which cost £10. These sandals go with pretty much any outfit, which is why I have added them to my summer favourites. I don't think I have taken them off this summer tbh. They are so comfortable and for £10, a real bargain. They have lasted me since June and they are still in great condition so that's a positive too. I would definitely recommend investing in a pair of these!

What are your summer favourites? Any recommendations?

Winter Goodies Part 2!

Aloha!


Time for part 2 of winter fabulous-ness! 

I have been on the hunt for more amazing gift ideas, and these are  a couple of the ones I have come up with:

  • Artbox! I will tell everyone now, I LOVE this website. I had never heard of it up until a year ago but now I am totally hooked. Anyway, this website has just about everything you could want on it. The main draw for me was the amount of Moomin merchandise they have. I bloody love the Moomins :D. Artbox has all sorts; toys, stationary, clothing, cosmetics, bags and other similar things.  The reason why I have added this website to my list is because I think it is great for gifts, especially gifts for children or people that really like novelty presents. One of my personal favourite items is the Owl Natural Lip Gloss with a minty chocolate fragrance for only £3.29. I know what I am asking my boyfriend for at Christmas!


  • Perfume! I think every Christmas I obtain a new perfume, which if I am honest, I won't complain about! At the moment, The Perfume Shop has a 50% off deal on selected products, so I thought it was worth a gander! For men, one of my personal favourites has to be the Calvin Klein CK Free fragrance. My boyfriend has owned this previously and I love the smell on him. It has quite a woody undertone with hints of berries and citrus fruits which I adore. It can also be worn for all occasions as it isn't too overpowering. For women, I would choose Beckham Signature. My mum owns this perfume, and whenever I am at her house I always pinch some! It has a gorgeous scent, really fruity with hints of vanilla, apple and musk. I think it is a perfect day time perfume for all ages, plus the bottle is really simple and cute.

Thats all for now folks. Have a great week and I hope to hear from you soon! 
Let me know what you think!
