HAUL - PRIMARK, H&M & PEACOCKS

Hello beauties. Following my previous haul I have just a few bits that I have picked up in the last week which I am sure a lot of you will want to pick up for yourselves, especially as they are such bargain prices.

PRIMARK ROSE GOLD RUCKSACK - £9

My everyday fringed handbag was ripping near the handle and the other day the zip broke on the inside. Usually I always pick up a medium sized black handbag for my staple handbag as I like to carry just about everything inside for those just in case moments. I couldn't see any that I liked when out shopping with my Mum, but this beauty just shouted out to me. It is compact, but still fits all of my everyday essentials and has space for more if I need it. I love the rose gold shade which is obviously very on trend. The straps are adjustable and it has a carry handle at the top. There is a zip compartment at the front, one across the top and a small one on the inside with an unzipped pocket inside also.

H&M BLACK PLATFORM BOOTS - SIZE 5 - SALE PRICE £10

These ankle boots I will keep for as long as they will possibly last me. They feel like real quality and they are quite weighty so hopefully quite hard wearing. They slip on easily due to the elasticated sides and of course because they are black will go with everything. They give me a nice bit of height and to me seem like they could be mistaken for a pair of Vagabond boots, but without the price tag. These were reduced from £24.99 down to just £10. They don't seem to be in the sale online, but hopefully the site just needs to be updated.

PEACOCKS WOMENS BLACK PRINT CREPE TROUSERS - SIZE 10 - £14

These trousers are so comfortable. They have a slim leg design, but they are just a pull on style so no need to worry if you having one of those bloated days. They are a bit long for me, but I just tucked the cuffs at the bottom under and they look fine. I like the vibrancy of the colourful tropical print on the black background. These will be great day or night.

I tried on these PEACOCKS WOMENS ORANGE PRINTED CREPE TROUSERS

in the same style, but they came up a bit larger around the tops of my thighs and looked a bit baggy otherwise I would have got them too. They didn't appear see through either which is a bonus for a lighter fabric.

These also come in a floral print which they unfortunately didn't have in store. There is a stripe design, but I am not too keen on those.

I hope you enjoyed this haul. Take care and I will be back soon!

Love to you all

EVERYTHING 5 POUNDS LACE HEM JUMPER

Hi there everyone. I hope you are all happy and healthy. It's been one heck of a week let me tell you, but now I am taking a bit of time for me to blog, get more organised at home and spend some time with my boyfriend as we have next week off together. I haven't been off work since January and I could tell I was burning out so yay!

I do love to browse EVERYTHING 5 POUNDS daily. I have found some great pieces during my shopping experiences with them. Sometimes I have received items that have been faulty, but they allow you to send them back for free. I have had items that didn't fit and I haven's sent them back because I would have to send them back paying for postage myself so if it's say just one item I don't usually bother. If you exchange items for whatever reason they then post the exchange items to you for free.

In this haul I exchanged 3 tops in different colours that I didn't like the feel of the material and knew I would never wear for this item that I bought in three shades.

LACE HEM JUMPER (WHITE, BEIGE & BLACK)

I love the style of this piece as it gives the effect of a lace top poking out from underneath the jumper. It's quite simple and can be worn with anything to add a pretty girly touch of lace. Because the jumper is singular in colour it doesn't add too much fuss to the piece and means it's so versatile to add to so many outfits. Although we are currently finally having a nice bit of summer this is the UK so I am sure these will come in handy at cooler times. If not they are great staple keepers for A/W. This jumper also comes in shades of pink, cream and grey. I think the grey and beige might be mixed up on the website so bear that in mind if you order either of these shades.

Let me know your recommendations from the EVERYTHING 5 POUNDS website in the comments below.

Love to you all

HAUL - PRIMARK, H&M & ZARA

Hello sweeties. Today I have a haul to share with you including some sale items ......

H&M OFF THE SHOULDER BLUE AND CREAM TILE PRINT CROP TOP - SIZE M - £4 SALE PRICE

I love the blue hues in this crop top. It can be worn off the shoulder or as a normal top on the shoulders if preferred. It gathers at the top as well as at the bottom and on the cuffs of the sleeves. This is not too short as a crop top. I think it would look great with loose fit ripped jeans or a maxi skirt for a relaxed summer vibe.

ZARA BLACK TIE WAIST WIDE LEG CROP TROUSERS - SIZE M - £19.99

I have been enjoying shopping in Zara a lot more recently. They have some really key pieces at reasonable prices and a fantastic sale on at the moment. I have been after a black pair of crop trousers for a while, but I didn't want them to be too cropped. These are a perfect length for my height which is between 5ft 2-3 inches. They come up higher than the ankles, but nowhere near my knees. They are jet black, but I lightened this photo a little so that you could see the key features more clearly such as the side pockets and tie waist. The back of the waist is elasticated too. If you have any style suggestions on how to wear crop trousers please leave them in the comments below.

ZARA BLACK MAXI CARDI - SIZE S - £15.99 SALE PRICE

This maxi cardi is a slightly off black shade. The length is perfect for me again. It does not hit the floor even in flats. It may not look like much in this photo, but the fit of this cardi is perfection. It wraps neatly around my bust due to the lines of the fabric and skims down the length of my body creating a very slimming and put together silhouette. If they had it in more colours I would buy them all.

PRIMARK FRIENDS CENTRAL PERK RAGLAN TEE - SIZE 12 - £3 SALE PRICE

This tee is a great throw on piece to wear with jeans or anything else really. I bought a size 12 as sometimes white tees can look a little more see through if they are too fitted. Just a little tip there if you really like something white, but don't think you can pull it off due to the transparency.

PRIMARK CORAL & BLACK SOFT TOUCH JOGGERS - SIZE 12 - £4.50 EACH SALE PRICE

I already have these in hot pink that I am wearing today and a mint green. They are so comfy. I love to wear them at home on weekends. I think they are meant to be cropped, but you probably wouldn't notice they were on me. I find I have to size up in Primark joggers as they seem to be more fitted now. I find that a lot of their pyjama bottoms are actually leggings now too. I prefer a looser fit for lounging at home.

I hope you enjoyed this haul. Please share your bargains below.

Love to you all

EUCERIN CC CREAM & SPF SKINCARE

Hi beauties. I hope you are all fabulous as always. Today I have some product reviews for you from the Eucerin range that were sent to me to try out. They are focused on SPF protection, but there is also a CC cream in the mix too so read on ......

EUCERIN SUN FLUID ANTI-AGE SPF 50

With a long lasting matt finish effect this high factor daily sunscreen protects against sun-induced skin damage. With intense moisturisation it reduces the appearance of wrinkles on the face and decolletage.

This product has a very light texture and sinks into the skin easily. I wore it under make-up without any issue as it is not like some sunscreens that can be quite greasy. Although it has a mattifying effect it did not dry out my already dry skin. It just kept it even in texture.

EUCERIN SUN CREME TINTED CC FAIR 50+

Suitable for sensitive skin types and fair complexions. With a mattifying effect and tinted cream that also protects the skin from sun damage.

This is also very lightweight and sinks in really easily. It again mattifies, but does not cause problems for my dry skin. Although the product is tinted I would not say it gave me natural tan skin tone. The colour disappeared into nothing and instead the product worked as an excellent primer, especially under make-up. My imperfections were blurred and my skin looked more even prior to make-up application.

These two products are great as part of your every day skincare and if you are wearing it make-up routine.

EUCERIN SUN CREME FACE SPF 50+

Made for dry skin this water-resistant sunscreen protects against skin age-ing and pigment spots.

EUCERIN SUN LOTION EXTRA LIGHT BODY SPF 50

This non-sticky, non-greasy water resistant formula absorbs easily into the skin giving you a high level of sun protection.

These two products are easy to use and perfect for on the go sun protection.

Check out the full Eucerin Sun Protection range to discover your perfect combination of products.

Love to you all
