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 my dad but I didn't think anyone would want to see them. 
I was so excited to try the cut-out boots but they're too big at my ankles. I did expect this though, so I'm going to have to return them.  I am in love with the sandals though! They look super cute on as they tie up the leg. I know that I'll wear them with EVERYTHING in Summer. 

 I also ordered the bright orange skirt from ASOS, it's in a nice light linen material and is an a-line shape so will fit into my wardrobe perfectly. 

 The other skirt I bought is from Newlook, I bought it in the camel colour a few weeks ago and went back the other day for the grey. I was actually about to give up looking when my friend spied it hidden away - there was only two left and one was in my size so it was obviously meant to be! haha. 
The black bardot bodysuit (it's quite hard to see in the picture) is from Newlook too, but I bought it via ASOS. They actually sent me a size smaller as it was packaged wrong but because it's stretchy it still fits. I know it comes in a white so I might buy the other colour too since it sits lovely on and I find it so easy to wear.

 The dungarees are from Next. I haven't actually worn these yet but will do an outfit post when I do! I'd been looking for some dungarees for a while and spied these on-line, however I need to warn you that the sizing is AWFUL. I'm usually an 8 but had to size down to a 6 and they're still quite roomy. 

 And finally the suede fringe bag (my new obsession) is from H&M. I saw this when I was leaving the store and fell in LOVE. It's going to be perfect for summer and festivals.
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 with a full on thick moustache... ).

The packaging is the only thing about this product that put me off, I feel that it's quite old fashioned and could do with a modern day spruce up to become more physically appealing.  

The product however worked perfectly, I'd read a few bad reviews about it but I left it on for 10 minutes and was dark hair free! 
The only problem was mixing the two powder and creme because the tray is flat but you could easily get round that by using another tray. 

The product can also be re-used on different areas (in one session) for example on arms and then eyebrows so is very economical too! 



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 justify buying it.

 I bought the long top and trousers for work for when the weather gets a big warmer.
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 

Sensitive Facial Cleansing wipes - I can't find these on the website but they'll be in store
I can't rave about these wipes enough. I haven't been using these for long but I'll use them to remove my make-up before cleansing, but they always take off every scrap of make-up, including my eye make-up!
I picked these up originally because I was out of both micellar water and cotton wool and wanted a quick fix. 

Collection 2000 Lasting Perfection Concealer - £4.19
I've mentioned this before in my posts so you might already know that this is my go to every-day concealer. I've used it for years and I usually repurchase when it's on offer. 
It has won awards in the past and I know that a lot of bloggers use or have used this in the past, which just confirms it's legendary greatness. 

 Mitchum Powder Fresh Deodorant - £2.99
This deo pretty much just does the job that a good deodorant should! It smells nice and keeps me fresh, what more could I want?

 Soap and Glory Mist You Madly Body Spray - £6.50
I like to keep this in my bag and it's just kind of habit to always repurchase this when there's none left!

 Tealights
So I'm not very fussy about what brand these are but I've got to have some candles on the go at all times. I use these with my wax-tart burner. I'll usually buy them from Primark as its a big(ish) pack for something like £2. Although Wilkinsons also do a massive bag of either 100 or 200 candles, I can't actually remember and it's about £2 as well! The Wilkinsons ones aren't scented but it's hard to complain when it's such great value. 


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 went back to the first set because I would dread the thought of the long workouts and wouldn't do them. It's better to do an easier workout than none at all!

 You start off with a fitness test and then start the first round of workouts for 4 weeks with a fitness test every second week, although I usually miss out the fitness tests because I don't see very much point in them. 
You then get a week of recovery where you do the same workout each day to give your body a slight rest before starting the second round of workouts. 

The DVD set comes with a nutrition plan but I haven't used it at all and have been fine, just be aware of what you're eating and you will be fine. 

I recommend this to everyone looking to get in shape, it's perfect for those who don't have time for the gym or want to workout at home.
