swimsuit edit
White cut-out - £32 River Island Black strappy - £35 River Island White w/ mesh sides - £38 River Island Contrast Bandeau - £28 ASOS I'm going back on holiday late August and since I have too many bikinis to count, I thought I'd try taking a swimsuit along with me for a change. This is just a few of my favourites, I'm swaying towards the white lace cut-out swimsuit, or the white Pacha one with mesh sides from RI,

Work-out Wishlist Pink Waterproof Jacket - £15 race for life Trainers - £20 Sports Direct Grey & White Running Tights - £24.99 Puma via Sports Direct Green & Black Tights - £19.99 Puma via Sports Direct As I've recently began training for the race for life (sponsor me here), I've been buying more running clothes. I shouldn't say this but wearing nice clothes definitely makes it a bit easier and I know that i'll stick with it if I buy things
give me volume
V05 plump it up - dry backcombing spray v05 give me texture - dry texturising spray I borrowed one of these from my friend the other day and fell in love! I went straight to superdrug to buy it, but couldn't remember which one she had and there was so many to choose from so bought these two since they were on a 2 for £5 offer and there wasn't anything else I wanted! Now I don't actually have a
haul
Sandals - £20, Boots - £35, Orange Skirt - £20, Bodysuit - £8.99, Grey Skirt £19.99, Dungarees - £35, Bag - £19.99 I decided to do one big post with my recent purchases rather than a few small ones. You might recognise a few of the items, and that's because they were in some of my previous wishlists! I done quite a big ASOS order recently because I had a discount code for them, I also ordered some shirts for

Jolen Creme Bleach Review It was only recently that I noticed my upper lip hair, I'm not sure if it has actually gotten any darker than before or if I can notice it more because I have absolutely no tan but I just had to do something about it. I decided that bleaching was my best option since I didn't want to actually remove the hair (the main reason being that I'm slightly scared it'll go wrong and I'll end up

NewLook Haul Camel Skirt - £19.99 Zip Front Trousers - £14.99 Baseball Top - £12.99 Split Side Top - £14.99 I've been wanting a suede skirt for so so long now but I refused to pay a lot of money for it, but this came onto the NewLook website about a week ago and I just about cried with happiness. I'm loving suede right now and I also LOVE the Topshop suede biker jacket but it's just too expensive, I can't
hoarder
What's in my stockpile? These are a few of my essentials that I cannot live without. Most of these are things that I buy on a regular (ish) basis so that I NEVER run out. Wilkinsons Sensitive Shaving gel - 95p I've been using this for years and have never had any reaction to it what-so-ever so it's became my go-to shaving gel. Since I epilate my legs I don't go through very much of this so it lasts for ages
INSANITY
For those of you who don't know, insanity is a workout DVD that is exactly what it says .. INSANE. I ordered this at the beginning of the year, I was feeling out of shape and was gaining so much weight. I have been doing this for 7/8 weeks and I've got to say that it does get easier over time. However when I reached the second stage, I found the hour long workouts just too repetitive and boring so
guide to e-bay
I've always been a massive fan of buying and selling things on e-bay, I set up my account in 2012 and have been addicted ever since. I know people who have never bought anything from e-bay because they don't trust paypal etc. but it's very rare to have problems. As long as you keep an eye on your account for any unexplained charges (fraud) then it's so safe. Here's a few steps to get you started: 1. Download the app.

Shoe Edit Leopard slip-on - Carl Scarpa 99 euros (around £75) Lace up sandal - ASOS £20 Black ballerina - ASOS £22 Iridescent pointy flats- ASOS £35 Cut out boots - ASOS £35 Cut out heeled boots - ALDO £65 These are a few of my favourite shoes on-line at the moment. Of course the majority of them are from ASOS, due to me being OBSESSED with that website; I could literally buy all of my clothes from there for the rest
style expertise
Superdrug style expertise root boost spray £2.99 (or 2 for £4 right now) I LOVE this stuff for giving my hair a bit of volume. I just spray it onto the roots when it's still wet and then blow dry it. I picked it up a few weeks ago with the salt spray but out of the two this won me over. I have really fine, flat hair and this makes such a difference when styling it. The only downside

My favourite red lipsticks From L to R: Bellapierre - Mandarina, Rimmel Apocalips - orangeology, Avon COLORTREND - poppylove, Maybeline 24 hr colourstay - Fire Coral Bellapierre - mandarina £20 I first got this in a glossybox last summer and fell in love with the colour instantly. It's a bright coral-ly red that looks amazing with a tan! These bright colours suit my complexion much better. I actually keep on losing this lipstick and keep having to buy it again, drives

OOTN Top - Newlook (via ASOS) Skirt & necklace - primark Boots - Moda in Pelle Rings - H&M and ASOS My sister's boyfriend is in a band and they were performing at a pub in town last night and I had never seen them before so went along - I feel terrible saying this but I've forgotten the name of the band but I'll try to slyly ask tonight. Now I'm not really one to go along to gigs
clean as a whistle
L'oreal Elvive Fibrology Review I've been using l'oreal Elvive Fibrology shampoo and conditioner pretty much since it came out, it was originally the scent that pulled me in, since it smells soooo good - that and the fact that I have very fine hair. I always buy it now whenever it's on offer which is every other month or so, which makes it under £2 for a 400ml bottle. The product is said to have a patented ingredient to actually expand

Here's some of what I might buy. I'm absolutely loving the
skin deep
'Drug Store' Favourites Rimmel Stay Matte Foundation Rimmel Stay Matte foundation is one of the only drug store foundations that I've used that doesn't cling to my dry skin; I feel that it has good coverage without being too cakey and dry. I usually mix two shades atm as I'm in between and sometimes wear fake tan. Collection Lasting Perfection Concealer This is the only concealer that I've used for years. The reason? It works. It covers under eye darkness as

I can see myself buying that box clutch with the googly eyes very very soon, it's far

Eylure Eyebrow Dye Kit Review brown dye kit £6.89 - Amazon I absolutely love this stuff. I bought it a year or so ago to use on my lashes, although due to new regulations it can't be advertised as a lash dye now, but I *believe* that it's still the same formula. I found it again on amazon at the beginning of the year and bought it to try on my eyebrows this time. I wasn't aware of how light my

Vanilla & Fresh Berries wax melts £3.75 for 10 After only ever buying my wax melts from Yankee Candle, I decided to give these a try. I wasn't expecting much, but I've got to say I might never buy from Yankee Candle again. These smell SO good. I ordered late on Sunday night and received on Friday, it's free delivery though so no complaints! They arrive in a small bag with ten to a pack. Now it suggests that you
