Summer Bucketlist

Hello lovelies!
One week till I break up from school and it could not come sooner for me! Six blissful weeks of scrolling through tumblr and sitting inside all day, But not this summer! I've made a list of things I want to do, some little, some big. Here is my summer bucket list.

• Lie on the beach
• Swim in the sea
• Laugh until I cry
• Go camping
• Watch the sun rise/set with a friend
• Travel
• Go to Brighton
• Go running every week
• Tidy and organise my bedroom
• Go a whole week without makeup
• Say yes more
• Save money
• Make healthy choices
• Get a Job

So there you have it! A few things from my Summer bucketlist. I really enjoyed writing all these things down and I'm excited to see which ones I manage!

Do you have a Summer bucketlist?

The Accidental Haul

Oops...

One does not simply walk past shops with 50% off sales, right?! I didn't intend on writing this post because I didn't intend on needing buying this much. But I'm pleased with what I got so I might as well show you.

From Topshop I bought a Minty oversized crop top. I love the slouchy cut of this and the pocket detail ~link I bought some freedom jewellerey, A dainty-ish gold necklace with glittery triangles ~Similar and a set of midi and regular silver rings ~Similar

Accessorize had a rather fab 50% off their sterling silver earrings so I was straight over to the stand, clutching armfuls of earrings. I saw my senses and chose my three favourites to buy. There is a set of three different pairs of studs, hearts with a pearl in the centre and my personal favourite, two teeny tiny turtles.

In the makeup department aka where i spend most of my life, I picked up two things from MUA and two things from collection. From MUA I picked up a 'Power pout' in the shade Crazy in Love, and a concealer. I bought a new 24hr eyeliner from collection and a pressed powder, Reviews coming soon!

Do you ever buy kind of a lot without realising? Please say I'm not the only one.

June favourites 2014

Sorry, Have I been asleep for a while? Because last time I checked, I was pulling party poppers and shouting 'Happy New Year!' Where has this year gone? But June has come and gone no matter how much it shocks me, and that means my birthday is this month! #Julybaby.

I have absolutely been loving two products on my brows recently. I have extremely sparse, fair eyebrow hair, so I need as much help as I can get in the brow department. I have been loving the 2true brow pencil paired with my Benefit Gimme Brow. Two products from very different price ranges. I find that with these two products, my brows will well, be there? I do find though that Gimme brow can be a bit hit or miss, and I really do not like the look it gives me without the brow pencil underneath. The Body shop Pink Grapefruit body spray Is my rediscovered gem. I spray this all over me before walking out the door in the morning. I don't know what it is, but smelling like a grapefruit is very appealing to me. Next I have the Got2b Beach spray. I have naturally very wavy hair, so to be honest, I'm not too sure why I bought this, probably because The bottle promises a 'mermaid look'. But I do not regret it, because it smells absolutely gorgeous. I  hate how flat and floppy my hair is when I have just washed it, this gives it a bit of texture and I love it, Perfect for summer! My favourite Nail polishes from June are from The Models own fruit pastel collection.

As for fashion favourites I've been loving my massively oversized light was denim shirt from Topshop and my low rise white converse. Unfortunately I cannot photograph either of these, The denim shirt is in the wash, and I wore the trainers out in the torrential rain so they are brown not white at the moment.

Bring on July!
