Primark Limited Edition Heels -£16

This is a quick post and more of a 'I need your opinion' kind of post. I picked up these heels in Primark the other day and I'm undecided whether I want to keep them. 

Seventeen Define & Conquer Contour Kit: £4.99

I'm not going to lie, this was an accidental purchase. No really, it actually was. I had originally wanted the contour product that I saw Lily Melrose mention in one of her recent YouTube videos, but accidentally, I picked up the wrong product (don't ask how I managed to do it).

This can't be good. Two H&M mini hauls within a space of a week!? HELP. However, I kind of justified my purchases today due to the fact they were doing 20% student discount.

I've been wanting this bag for absolutely ages but I wouldn't pay £35 for it. £35 isn't that expensive for a bag so I don't really know why I didn't buy it. With the 20% off it meant that I got £7 deducted, making it £28. I was in the shop for AGES deciding what colour/style to get but I finally decided on this one. I have a million and one black bags but they go with everything and I don't have one with this effect on it. I was very very tempted to buy the berry coloured one but it was only because I thought I wouldn't use it as much as the black that I decided against it.

Onto my next purchase, a khaki fluffy jumper. If you have seen my previous H&M mini haul, you'll have seen that I bought this jumper in black. The reason I bought another one is because they are honestly the comfiest jumper I've ever worn - I absolutely love them. I thought that khaki is a popular colour for this season so that's what swayed my decision when choosing between Khaki, Cream and Pale Pink.

What are you all thinking of H&M at the moment? It's definitely my favourite shop.

The holiday blues have definitely kicked in. I've been back from the USA for about a month now and it's official, I need to live there.
Of course, while I was out there I had to do a bit of shopping (a lot of shopping). The extent of the shopping that I done was highlighted at the airport when my cases were weighed - yes I was stopped and yes I did have to take things out of the cases BUT it all managed to get home, yay! There were A LOT of products out there that were ridiculously cheaper than back here in the UK. It's surprising to see how much more overpriced it is in the UK compared to the US. Don't get me wrong, not everything was cheaper and in some occasions it worked out to be slightly more expensive.

The reasons this blog post is titled Part One is because I managed to take these pictures with the amazing background of the swimming pool but everything else that I bought I completely forgot to photograph whilst I was out there *slaps hand*. But still, there's Part Two to look forward to right!? I do realise that there's a Yankee Candle bag in the first picture but there's no candles etc shown above, I have absolutely no idea where those pictures disappeared too.

Prices:

• Victoria's Secret Fragrance Mist - Pure Seduction $14.00
• Victoria's Secret Fragrance Mist - Pure Daydream $14.00

With the other products, unfortunately I don't have the receipts to check prices but I can roughly remember some. The EOS lip balms were no more than $3 each, some of them I think I even got for under $2.  I saw these in a shop the other day and they were priced at £6 which just shows how much more expensive it is to get them in the UK. The NYX products were quite a bit cheaper over in the US although the exact prices I can't remember. If I remember correctly, the NYX Lip Cream & Butter Glosses converted price wise to around £3? But I honestly can't remember. NYX is a brand that is becoming more available in the UK, so if I like any products I try I can still get them, even if they are more expensive.

I love every single product that I managed to get in the US and I can't wait to go back again!

Have any of you been to the US?

H&M is officially my favourite shop at the moment. I absolutely love it.
I try and stay out of there as much as I possibly can as my bank balance really doesn't appreciate my visits.
My bank account wasn't too badly damaged today but it was bad enough (I'm suppose to be saving - as you can tell it's not going too great). The pictures of the outfits on aren't amazing quality, as they were taken from my I-Phone but I'm thinking of doing more fashion outfit posts which are much better quality.

One fashion trend that I'm currently loving are the co-ordinates. I've been looking for a while now for one  that is the right length for me, as I'm not one to wear crop tops, which most co-ords have. The one I found was perfect, it was £12.99 for the top and £12.99 for the skirt so it totalled £25.98. The top still has the slight cropped look to it, but not too short.

The black jumper is also something that I've been looking for. I have been undecided whether to buy one from Primark for ages, but after seeing this one today I couldn't resist and had to buy it. It's so soft and so comfortable! I have to admit these jumpers do come up quite oversized so I would recommend either trying it on or going down a size or two. I bought mine in a Medium and to be honest I probably could have even got away with a Small.

I've finally decided to set myself up a blog after years of reading other people's. I've wanted to set up my own blog for some time and now feel ready to dedicate my time on updating my blog regularly with beauty, fashion and lifestyle related posts.

I hope you all enjoy my blog and don't forget to follow - it'll be much appreciated.
