PRIMARK AND H&M HAUL

Hey gorgeous people. I did a bit of shopping again, oops! On Saturday I had a 'me day'. I had my fave sandwich (cheese & onion) sat on a bench then wondered off into H&M where I picked up one item featured here. Then I went to Costa for some tiffin and a cappuccino. OMG heaven!

I was in and out of a few shops, but the one that I spent the rest of my pennies in was Primark.

NAVY CHECK NIGHTSHIRT - MEDIUM (10/12) - £8

I have been after a shirt dress for some time, but I find that they are too short (even for short girls like me) or just too expensive. I can not see any obvious signs that this is a nightshirt and so I am going to wear it as a dress or long top with leggings.

5 PACK BLUE, OFF WHITE & GREY MARL SOCKS - SIZE 4-8 - £2.50

I thought I would get shades different from just black all the time, but that are still quite neutral. Cheap as chips for 5 pairs!

P.S. LOVE... THIS 4 PK FASHION NAIL FILES - 50P IN THE SALE

I love the coral and printed styles. I am hanging on to summer as long as I can.

PINK/SILVER GLITTER DOME CUP - £3

I like having a straw as I find it helps me to drink more throughout the day. I am a firm believer in water being one of the best things for our bodies.

WHITE CUBIC ZIRCONIA FRONT & BACK EARRINGS - £2

I have not tried this style of earring yet. These are great also because you can just wear the silver balls if you want to.

WHITE CUBIC ZIRCONIA NECKLACE - £2

I don't usually wear matching jewellery, but I had to pick this up too because I think it's great to team with simple tops for a little glisten to catch the eye.

H&M CORAL V NECK JUMPER - XS - £7 IN THE SALE

There was only an XS and lots of MED left which looked too big so I took a chance and it fits perfectly. Such a great shade to perk up any day and bring out the blue in my eyes.

DESPICABLE ME MINIONS BURNOUT CORAL T-SHIRT - 10 - £3 IN THE SALE

I think I will wear this as a PJ top, but still isn't it great. I know not everyone is a Minions fan, but they just make me happy :)

P.S. LOVE LIP LINER CRAYONS (L-R: 01, 02, 03 & 09) - £1 EACH

I have read good things about these lip liners from Primark and although I don't use lip liner that much I am hoping these will change that.

P.S. LOVE FOUNDATION STICK (LIGHT) - £2

I want to try this a face highlight rather than a foundation, but I may also use it as a concealer. It does also come in shades medium and dark, but I prefer an ash tone to contour with so I didn't get one of those.

ZIP THROUGH HOODED SWEATERS - BURGUNDY, OATMEAL & BLACK - 12 - £7 EACH

I wanted some casual sweaters that were easy to take on and off so these are perfect. The black is a staple shade and the burgundy which seems to be very popular at the moment is very much an autumnal shade. The oatmeal adds freshness to an outfit without being as bold and crisp as white. These feel so soft and have handy side pockets. They also come in many colours.

So that's everything lovelies. I hope you find something here you like. Share your Primark finds also in the comments below.

Love to you all

RIBBED TRIM ROLL NECK JUMPERS - EVERYTHING 5 POUNDS

Hi lovelies. I have been throwing away a few jumpers recently that have gone a bit bobbly or have holes in so I needed to replace them. I found these bargain beauties at EVERYTHING 5 POUNDS.

RIBBED TRIM ROLL NECK JUMPERS

They are really easy to wear no brainer pieces to keep you warm, but looking chic throughout the A/W season.

I picked them up in 5 shades, but there are only the shades black, pink and purple left so hurry if you want them too.

Plus there is free UK standard delivery at the moment if you buy 5 or more items!

PRIMARK HAUL - COSY IN SEPTEMBER

Hey lovelies. I went back to Primark this week and found a few cosy items prefect for the changing season.

CHARCOAL CUFFED LEG JOGGERS - MEDIUM (10/12) - £7

CHARCOAL KNIT TOP - SMALL (6/8) - £7

I love the #LAZY #RELAX #HAPPY slogan on these pieces. That's exactly how I want to feel when putting on lounge wear. I bought a smaller top as it did seem to come up a little large for me. The material is very soft and quite thin so I could wear a vest underneath the top to layer up if I want to. I like this set especially as it's quite understated with it's muted tone. The joggers have pockets too.

BLACK SEQUIN FLIPTOP GLOVES - £2.50

I love this style of glove. As my old pink ones were getting a bit bobbly I thought I would pick up this black sequin pair that will go with everything ready for the onset of winter.

BLACK SUPERSOFT SNOOD - £2

I had one of these previously which again I got my use out of and threw away a few months ago. This is another piece that is easy to pair with many items.

GREY FLORAL BOTTOMS - MEDIUM (10/12) - £6

I think these were £6, but there was no tag on them. These do come up a little large and are quite stretchy, but they will be fine for dossing at home. These too have pockets and cuffed bottoms. Perfect for short ladies like me.

So that's all folks. I will no doubt be going to Primark again soon as there are some other pieces I had my eye on, but couldn't decide if I wanted them at the time.

Let me know which bargains you have found in Primark lately in the comments below.

Love to you all

FIND YOUR PERFECT OUTFIT WITH NIVEA Q10

Hi sweetie pies. I don't know about you, but I am so confused about what to step outside wearing these days with the weather in the UK being so up and down. When I saw these fashion illustrations from Tommy Pang and celebrity stylist James Yardley who have collaborated Nivea Q10 I felt inspired once again. With the buzz of LFW at the moment it's hard not too also.

Everyone wants to feel confident whether going to work, meeting friends or loved ones. Maybe even partying the night away. Nivea Q10 have a range of products that aim to provide firmer, tighter skin so that you can feel good about your body before you choose that perfect outfit. I have been sent four of the Nivea Q10 products to try out to reduce cellulite and firm the skin.

I am currently testing the products out and will follow up with a review of all four products. I love these illustrations. Let me know in the comments below if you think one of these girls are just your style. I love PARTY & LADIES LUNCH.

Love to you all

PRIMARK HAUL - SEPTEMBER 2015

Hey sweeties. I went shopping the other day with my Mum and picked up lots of goodies in PRIMARK that I know you will want to see.

KIDS BLING DIGITAL STEREO HEADPHONES - ONE SIZE - PINK - £7

At work I can listen to my I-Pod and I currently have in ear headphones which I find a little uncomfortable to wear for long periods. I saw that Primark have some foldable white over the head headphones, but then I saw these kids ones and just couldn't help myself. They are not fantastic quality, but they do cancel out quite a bit of noise. Plus I can pretend I am a DJ, ha ha.

WORK OUT X-BACK PADDED CROP TOPS - MEDIUM (10/12) - FUCHSIA, GREY MARL & TEAL - £4 EACH

Now I am not going to lie. I do not plan to work out in these although I do think they would be great to. I prefer wearing crop tops instead of bras at home for comfort with a bit of support. I love that these have adjustable straps and a crossover back which I think will really help with support also. They are nicely padded with cups that are full. By that I mean they fill the whole breast/cup area, but are removable. I love these shades and the Aztec/Tribal print.

SOFT TOUCH TRACKSUIT BOTTOMS - 12 - BLUSH & BLUE MARL - £4.50 EACH

I have been wanting to get some comfortable lounge pants/joggers to doss around in at home instead of wearing my PJ's. These soft touch trackies are perfect with their cuffed bottoms that can be rolled up too. I sized up on these as I find a lot of tracksuit bottoms especially in Primark are slim fit and I wanted a looser style.

WIDE RIB JUMPERS - 12 - IVORY, OLIVE & BLACK - £8 EACH

I know I will get a lot of wear out of these basic tops. They feel like real quality without being too heavy. I could wear them as tops or with something underneath such as a vest, bodycon top or a shirt. The sleeves come just below the elbow. I sized up in these too as I wanted them to skim over my body rather than cling so that layering is easier too. I wasn't sure about the oilve shade on me, but I don't have a shade like it in my wardrobe so I thought I'd give it a try. This does come in grey too, but they only had a size 16 left  :(

DESPICABLE ME MINIONS - GREY:

CUFFED LEG BOTTOMS - MEDIUM (10/12) - £7

SWEAT TOP - MEDIUM (10/12) £8

I could not resist these Minion pieces. They will make me happy every time I wear them. I love the expressions Minions have and these even have 'Bello' (Minion hello) on them. The bottoms are a little big, but if I sized down I am not sure if they would be a slimmer fit than I would like so I will stick with these.

A massive thanks to my Mum who treated me to this haul. It was a belated birthday present as she moved around that time and so gave a me few smaller bits back then in case anything got lost or packed away.

Let me know your great finds in Primark as I will be going there again with my friend next week. Yes there will most likely be another haul :)

Love to you all

BEAUTY KITCHEN LOVE ME CARING & ANTI-AGEING BATH OIL

Hi lovelies. I have a pampering product to talk with you about today that was kindly sent to me by BEAUTY KITCHEN.

BEAUTY KITCHEN LOVE ME CARING & ANTI-AGEING BATH OIL

Described as a silky rich bath & massage oil that nourishes and moisturises the body.

The scent of this product is so relaxing and gives you that warm zen feeling that will be perfect as the weather gets colder. Your senses are very much aware of the cinnamon and citrus scents as you breath it in.

I did not use this in the bath as that's not how I like to use oils, but as a massage oil oh my goodness. I never thought that I would notice the quality of an oil for this purpose, but I certainly did with this product.

I like that you can pour out droplets from the lid as it gives you more control with the amount you want to use. I would say 8-10 drops for a back massage is about enough.

I tried this on my boyfriend and he tried it on me too. The product makes massage so much easier as it helps your hands to glide over the skin without feeling greasy. Some oils I find absorb a little too quickly, but this product smoothed in nicely after 10 mins leaving the skin moisturised and nourished, but not tacky.

Afterwards you get to enjoy the scent lingering on your skin which is great if applied before bed because it helps you to relax.

This product also contains sesame seed oil which is full of zinc. This is an essential mineral for producing collagen to give skin elasticity. So that's where the anti-ageing part comes in.

I hope you enjoyed this review. Beauty Kitchen have plenty of skin care and body care products to choose from to suit all your needs. You can also search their site for products by scent too. Genius!

Love to you all
