Just an insight into what I wear on a daily basis...
001: Brow Zings - Benefit
002: "that gal" Primer - Benefit
003: they're Real mascara - Benefit
004: Studio Fix Fluid foundation - MAC
005: Sugarbomb blusher/bronzer - Benefit
006: Sun beam highlighter - Benefit
(I like Benefit make-up)
001: I only bought this in the summer, and it's still looks brand new by the amount I've used (I use it everyday) Being naturally blonde, I have quite light eyebrows, so this makes them look darker and more defined. It comes in different shades to fit the colour you want, and you 2 different brushes and mini tweezers too.
002: This primer was really good in the beginning and made my foundation last all day. It comes out as a pinky colour, but stays clear when you apply it to your face. After using it everyday for about 6 weeks, it ran out. Being quite expensive it wasn't really worth the amount, for the time it lasted. My gran was there when I first bought this, and you kindly bought me some more for christmas, without me knowing. Worth a buy, if money is no object.
003: This mascara is honestly a godsend!!! My lashes look 10x longer and thicker when applied.
(yes, that picture is my real lashes!) They look thick but don't look too un-natural so people think they're fake. A bit pricey at £18.50 but defiantly worth it for the outcome.
004: I love this foundation! Very easy to apply with a brush/finger tips. It comes in lots of different shades to fit anyone perfectly. The only problem is it needs a powder/bronzer on top to let it set. I find that most MAC makeup is always perfect and worth the heavy pricing.
005: (Below) Another brilliant product from Benefit Cosmetics! With it's brilliant 4 different colours, it can be used for blusher and bronzer or you could just use whatever colour for whatever mood you're in. Defiantly one of those products for life!!!
006: I got this smaller addition highlighter free in Elle Magazine, but I'm defiantly considering buying the bigger one when this one runs out. It fits my skin tone perfectly and makes my eyes look a lot brighter. I was a bit causes of trying highlighter because I didn't really see the point in it, but since trying it there is no going back!

Just a quick post to show you guys some of my favourite jewellery. The good thing about all of the jewellery i'm about to show you is that it's all very neutral and I'd say classic, so it will never go out of fashion.
Left: Blue Oval Ring: New Look -
I love this ring because it compliments any plain/boring looking outfit, it has a few stones missing around the outside because I've worn it so many times and dropped it (being my clumsy self!!)
Middle: Gold Triangle Ring: Topshop -
I got this ring in the summer sale at £2.50 (top bargainer) I wear it with literally everything because it's so simple but looks so good. The only problem is, with it being fake gold it turns the bottom of your finger green.
Right: Black Oval Ring: Vintage - My mum passed this ring down to me a couple of years ago, but I've only just really started wearing it because it's so precious to my family. I like to wear it for special occasions and not really casually every day, going shopping/whatever.
Cameo necklace and bracelet: River Island -
I know I included the necklace in my last post but how could I not include it in my favourite jewellery, they're just too beautiful. Like I said before, I don't wear the bracelet much because I'm not a bracelet person, what so ever. But they're so gorgeous to look at I don't really mind I wasted my money. My favourite all time pieces of jewellery, by far!
Flowery Earrings: Primark -
I never normally buy things from Primark because they never last but I am so surprised with these! I've had them for nearly 2 years or so and they haven't broken at all.. (they're really delicate as well which is weird) The floral pattern/renaissance(ness) about them just made me fall in love.
Coral butterfly earrings: Topshop -
I absoloutley love these butterfly earrings, but never wear them because they're quite uncomfortable and really large (which you can't tell in the picture) I usually only wear them on holiday - which I have no idea why.

Today, I went shopping in mansfield (a little town near where I live) I literally found nothing in the sales, such a waste of the day when I could of been revising! Anyway this is what I wore...
Ok, this picture doesn't do this outfit justice what so ever, but I thought I'd post a quick picture before I go round to my friends house!
Oasis: Fur lined parka - If you read my last post you'll know I bought this when I went shopping last weekend, it's perfect for this weather, because of it's detachable fur lining.
Topshop: 'Leigh' Jeans - I bought these jeans back in September when I started college. I always find it difficult to find jeans that fit me (being around 5'9) most of the time the length just isn't long enough. So I was so surprised when the TALL range in Topshop were too long (yes, too long!!!!) and the normal range actually fit me for once. These are softer than normal denim so they're super comfortable to.
Tkmaxx: Cream Blouse - I must admit, the blouse looks horrible in this photo, probably because it's half covered up but you know. It actually has the cutest peter pan collar and gorgeous sleeves, attached below is a picture of them!
So adorable, I know!
Primark: Brown boots - These boots go so well with nearly every outfit, and being from primark it doesn't matter if they get wrecked or not! I'm surprised in myself that I haven't scruffed them up yet (being the clumsiest person alive) and the fact they're only suede.
Zara: Brown bag - I got this bag for christmas, but I've wanted it for so long. My mum normally never listens to me when we go shopping together, but I must of gone on about it so much this year, she got the picture. I'm a bit of a bag-aholic myself, and this bag is the most perfect addition to my collection.
River Island: Cameo necklace - You can't actually see in this photo but I am actually wearing a necklace. It's the cutest cameo necklace, which I got from River Island along with a matching bracelet (which I have no idea why I bought because I am not a bracelet person what so ever) I've attached a picture below of what it looks like close up...

Firstly,
I'd like to start by saying this post isn't to brag/show off, (If you feel that way please feel free not to carry on reading) I asked instagram what they wanted, and my favourite gifts was very popular.
I know this post if way overdue, but as you may/may not already know, I only started blogging yesterday so wouldn't of been able to do it any sooner anyway! I don't know any of the prices of these products, as they were all presents :(
Here goes...
Benefit: they're Real! mascara -
I've had this product 3 or 4 times now, it's honestly like a miracle in a tub (/container or whatever it is haha) It is the best mascara I have ever bought, and I can honestly say I will not be using another until they stop selling! I luckily already have quite thick and long lashes so I don't find the use out of false ones very often, so this is perfect for party lashes/ normal everyday lashes too!
Yankee Candle: Baby Powder -
I've had yankee candles before, (it's like a tradition between me and mum to buy each other one every christmas) because I have a candle obsessed family! but I think my mum decided to buy me this one because I have a strange obsession to baby smelling products. I always buy baby bath products from the supermarket because they smell and feel amazing! (Recommending it to everyone who thinks I'm weird right now) I wasn't let down by the scent of this candle either, my favourite Yankee so far!
Cath Kidston: Laptop case -
For anyone who doesn't know me personally, I am the most girliest (if that's even a word) person you will ever meet. I love everything Cath Kidston/flowery and my room is full up of it! I've had a macbook for a couple of years now, and take it to college with me literally everyday. I think my mum bought me this because she knew how much my laptop was getting bruised about just chucked in with all my folder. I love the colours of this case, so me!
Oasis: Fur lined parka -
Ok, I'm going to confess, I didn't actually get this in the sale, I got it when I went sale shopping at the weekend, but I bought it with the money I got for christmas so that sort of counts, right?
Although a bit pricey (£88!!!) I fell in love straight away, the fur is detachable so it's perfect all year round.
