SuperDrug Beauty Haul.

I needed to get a few essentials but of course I didn't just buy what I needed, I just cant help myself when im looking at the beauty counters ... Tell me one person who can??



I love the batiste dry shampoo, I prefer the blush scent.
SuperDrug RRP £4.99 


I never really stick to a specific hairspray, I have used this superdrug own brand one before and it is really nice, I like the ultra firm or super hold type sprays as I only use it when I want to keep something in place i rarely use it for any other reason so a strong one is best. This spray doesnt leave your hair sticky and brushes out really easy has pro-vitamin B5.
SuperDrug £1.59


I also never stick to the same face wipes, I went for the superdrug own brand in this instance.
I actually really love them, they smell lovely, really fresh.
In the past iv used face wipes and they've being way to harsh on my skin but these are so super soft and gentle. 
Superdrug RRP £0.99


I love having a body spray in my bag and iv always gone for the impulse ones.
They always smell SO nice & surprisingly the scent last a short while on the skin.
I went for the 'Hint of Musk' scent its my kinda smell!
SuperDrug RRP £0.98



I re-purchased the l'oreal 'Miss Manga' mascara because I REALLY loved it. I love the wand, it has a bristle applicator which I LOVE & it bends which helps you get lift.
The consistency is a little thin to start but ones you've used a few times it thickens and you get a better result.
Superdrug RRP £8.99


I bought this lip combo, I have never owned a lip liner ... I know ... but I think this lip combo will look perfect. I feel nudes always look best with a more defined lip line.
I love my l'oreal collection privee 'Cheryl' lipstick so decided to purchase another from the collection, I went for the 'Julianne' one, its a warm pinky nude. 
Superdrug lip liner RRP £5.19
Lip Stick RRP £8.19
It was 3 for 2 so I got the lip liner free.

Let me know in the comments if you also love any of these product or if iv helped any of you find something new to try :)

TKMaxx Haul.

I'm a big fan of TKMaxx, I always find something I like when I go in. That's why I only go in when I have money to spend. This shopping trip was no exception.

Ice Tea.


If you speak to any one who knows me well they will tell you I love a good old brew so when I saw these I thought id give them a go But im not too keen on it, its not like the ones you get from shop. I got the peach flavour as iv always liked it, they smell strongly of peach but don't really taste like it. There's a very strong tea taste, I have a feeling I may have left the tea bag in to long :(! 
They were £1.79 for 4 tea bags RRP £2.40

Gladiator style shoes.



I LOOOOVE these shoes, iv being wanted a new pair of sandles/shoes for summer so im glad I found these, there a size 4 but I tried them on because I thought they looked bigger then a 4 and they fit perfectly, they go up past my ankle and there so comfy, the sole is padded so they'll be perfect to wear to work too.
They might not be to everyone's taste, My mum doesn't like them but all I say is 'you don't have to wear them'  They cost me £19.99 RRP £39.99.

  Giraffe print top.




This top is from the brand brave soul, It has a really lovely print. I love giraffes there my favourite animal so obviously I had to buy it :D Its nice and loose so when it gets hotter it will be a key piece.
Its a tank top style with a big key hole cut out at the back.
I bought it for £7.99, It didn't have the RRP on the tag so I searched for it and its sold every were else for the same price.

Michael Kors laptop case.



 This was an impulse buy, we were about to go pay for our things and my mum saw it.
I had to check my laptop would fit, low and behold it did, when I got it home it fit perfectly!
It a nice sturdy case made from faux leather. 
It cost me £39.99 Its RRP was £84.95

I could have bought sooooooo much more but I put a lot of stuff back, I just cant resist myself in that shop. I think its because you cant find loads of the same stuff on the high street so you wont be walking around in the same thing as everyone else, the prices are great too.

Let me know in the comments any TKMaxx purchases you've made recently, id lobe to know.

Haul: Charity Shop

I love going charity shop shopping, I got it from my mum, when I was little I'd always go with her & I'd get to choose something, id always go for some tacky ornament! so it wasn't really a surprise that id love going into charity shops now. Some people don't like the idea of getting things from charity shop, I don't blame them, I don't buy things that have seen better days, I always go for high quality items. 
Iv had lots of luck over the years, for example iv bought Topshop boots, Big knitted jumpers brand new tops & lots for my nephew, iv got a Mamas & Papas rocking horse worth over £300 for just £20. 

My most recent finds are absolute gems!

Miss Selfridge top: 



This was brand new, it still had its original tags on.
Its a size 14 but the way its cut it doesn't matter, it just looks like a over sized top.
I love the embossed floral pattern, it gives the top more detail then just printing the pattern on it.
It quite a stiff material so its going to be long lasting. I think ill be wearing this a lot throughout summer.
Its cost me £3.99, Originally £24.00.

Brown Leather bag:



 Iv been wanting a new bag but had no luck looking for one I liked.
I'd seen a few in the shop but I wasn't taken with them, then out the corner of my eye I saw this one hidden on the bottom shelf, I practically ran! I had a look to see were it was from but I couldn't see any tags, which makes me think its vintage.
Its very roomy, lots of space for all my junk.
Here's the best bit, it only cost me £3.99 .... BARGAIN!!!

Brown Leather purse:


  
This purse also has no labels so it could also be vintage.
I thought this purse would match the bag, there slightly different shades of brown but I don't mind.
Its not the biggest of purses but it'll stop me filling it with loads of receipts and crap I don't really need in there.
This cost me the measly amount of £1.50 .... BIGGER BARGAIN!!!


This isn't the biggest of hauls but its more quality over quantity.
The bit of advice id give you for shopping in charity shops is be patient because something will pop up, just look closely and don't be disappointed if you don't find anything first time, its pot luck when it comes to charity shops.

Let me know in the comments what charity shop gems you've picked up??
