First up is this beautiful bag I got for a mere £8 from Primark. You may recognise this from my recent haul post, and it's been getting used loads! I mainly wear monochrome colours, so i've found this yellow bag to be a perfect way to add a pop of colour. (Plus, yellow is so stylish right now, I love it!)

 Next up is a bit of a weird one.. It's these tissues. I think I got them in Poundland or something, I can't really remember, they were in a pack of 10, but how cute are they?! I've had a really bad cold so I am always carrying tissues around with me right now! I particularly like the blue packet.






 I was recently in London (post coming soon) and I needed a little travel shampoo and conditioner. I've used these before, and loved them, and nothing's changed. They leave my hair feeling so smooth, and they smell lovely, and I can't rave about this brand enough.



This next product has been a lifesaver. I've had really bad skin over the past month, because of severe stress, but this has really helped to keep it reasonable. Basically, you spray a bit on your face, and let it dry, and it acts as preventing blemishes, and it works like a charm!

I got this face scrub in a beauty box, and i'd never heard of the brand before, but I will definitely be checking out more of their stuff! This makes my skin feel so soft, and I can really feel the exfoliating beads working at getting rid of dead skin, and thoroughly clean my face.

Lastly is this body spray from Victoria's Secret. It's quite pricy at £13, but I just love this smell so much. It's honestly amazing. It's coconut and vanilla, and I really just adore it. It's my go-to scent, and I have the smaller bottle as well, which is perfect for throwing in a handbag!


So that's what i've been loving through May! What were you loving?
Until next time!

Can you believe that another month has gone already? It's November. Wow. We have got two months left of 2013. I don't know about you, but that scares me. Particularly because my life is going to completely change, and be turned upside down next year, but that's for another blog post. This one however, is all about my favourites for the month of October! It's a complete mix of fashion, beauty, and there's also some totally random ones at the end. So i'll stop rambling on, lets get started!


Shall we start with beauty? Okay.

As you can see, there has been quite a few products that I have been loving beauty-wise this month.

First up is this lip crayon from Bourjois. I cannot explain how much I adore this! I wear it far too often. It is pretty bright on the lips, but if I want a more subtle look, i'll put a lighter pink lipgloss over the top, to make it more nude. (I reviewed this on my blog here!)

Next is a nail polish. And it's bright orange. Oh yes. I love oranges, especially in Autumn. I know that this colour is more summery, but I love bright nails, all year round, and this nail polish is so flattering on. It's by Essie, and it's called "Fear and Desire". Not only do I adore the name (Essie are so creative with their names!), but the product itself is amazing.

Next is the Maybelline Cherry Baby Lips. I didn't like these at first, but the cherry flavour has totally won me over! I've been wearing this a lot, just as a lipbalm and lipgloss all in one. Perfect for those days when you don't want to bother with a lot of makeup.

Next up is another nail varnish, and it's "Cappuccino" by Barry M. It doesn't look much in the bottle, but once it's on my nails, it's like a dusky purple colour. It's so pretty, and perfect for autumn.

This lipgloss from Manhattan has been in my bag for the last month, and i've been reaching for it a lot. Not only does it smell amazing, but the colour is really nice, and it's really pigmented. And it was also really cheap. I think it was 99p from Fragrance Direct. Can you get any better?! I have a full review of this here.

Next is possibly one of the best purchases i've made this year. I am sure everyone has heard many people rave about this, and now i'm joining them. Yes, I purchased the "Real Techniques Expert Face Brush", and yes, it is as amazing as everyone says.

Final makeup item is this eye pencil from Topshop in the colour "Sable". I really wanted a dark brown eyeliner, as I sometimes find that black is too strong for everyday, and after many months hunting for "the perfect eye pencil", I think i've found it!


Now, onto Body and Skincare favourites,  have a few.

First is this moisturiser from "Neutrogena". I finished my "Simple" one, and I fancied a change, so I got this one, and I think it may have overtaken any other moisturisers that I have ever used. I love it!! It leaves my skin feeling hydrated, and smooth.

Next is this cleanser from L'Oreal. I'm sure you can tell by how much i've used already, but this really is incredible. It takes off makeup, leaves my skin feeling fresh, and clean, and I just love it. If you want to read a full review, click here.

This little bottle of shower gel from Lush only comes out at Christmas, and I always get it every year when I see it. It's called Snow Fairy, and it smells very sweet. And i mean VERY. This isn't too everyone's taste, but I for one love sweet smelling things.


I have a few clothing favourites for the month of October too.

This is possibly my main favourite of the month. It's my leather jacket that I got from H&M. I have been wearing this non stop, and it keeps me warm, it's comfortable, it fits me great, it goes with pretty much anything, and I can see this being a wardrobe staple.

I love scarves, but this floral scarf is probably my favourite scarf I own. It's perfect for the colder months such as September and October, as it's not too heavy, unlike the woollen scarves that I like to wear in winter, and it's very pretty and I just love it.

I am a little bit obsessed with this hat from New Look. It doesn't go with everything, but when I find an outfit that I know the hat will suit, I will wear it. I actually don't think I suit hats, but this one is so warm, cosy and beautiful, that I really don't care how I look.

I have quite a few random favourites, so here we go.

I don't like raisins. In fact, I hate them. However, a new discovery has been flavoured raisins, and let me tell you, these are the best things ever. (especially the Cola flavour.) and they're healthy! Love them.

However one not so healthy thing i've been particularly loving this month is Mentos. The fruit ones to be specific. I don't know why, but i've suddenly become obsessed with them!

Final favourite is this book, by Hannah Richell called "The Shadow Year". I'm not exaggerating when I say that it is one of the best books that I have ever read. It is a little bit slow to start, but once you get started, you won't be able to put the book down! And that plot twist... Oh my! I'm not going to spoil it, but I cannot recommend this book enough! If you fancy a good, emotional, funny and exciting read, then this book is right up your street!


And that is all for my October favourites!

It is officially August! We are more than halfway through the year already! (Where has the year gone, seriously?!) I haven't done one of these blog posts, but I love reading about them, so i'm going to do my July Favourites, because there have been a lot of beauty (and pretty random) things i've been loving throughout the month of July.

Lets start with hair products, shall we?
