Ebay Tote Bag!

Hey Lovelies,
 Ive been watching the 'Tote Bag Trend' for awhile now and been sitting on the side lines waiting for a cheaper alternative to spring up. Although I love the bags I couldn't justify spending £80 on Zaras version. So during a scroll through Ebay I found this bag for a fraction of the price! £4.98 to be precise! The only down side was having to pay £5.99 delivery as the bag was coming from China, but still £10.97 compared to £80 any day of the week! The link to the seller I used can be found here. As the bag was coming from China it did take awhile to get here, (22 days but nobodies counting) but when it did arrive I was pleasantly surprised.
 The bag is brilliant quality, made from faux leather its sturdy and durable. I wouldn't worry about over filling it to the point where it breaks, plus its a big bag which I'll be able to cram full with all my unnecessary items. The bag has the standard plaited handles which is a feature that first drew me to the bags.
 Another feature I love about the bag is the internal pocket which clips to the inside of the bag and can be removed. I hate having my valuable items floating around my bag and like to keep them separate, especially if I'm carrying drinks with me, so this is perfect.
 All round a brilliant bag, which I've used every day since I've had it. Thought I would share the bargain with you!

Thank you for all your support guys! I love all the comments and I'm at 99 followers eeeek! So look out for a giveaway soon!

She Said Beauty Event & Forever 21 Haul!

Hey Lovelies! 

Once again, I have been a bad blogger and been missing for awhile now, (10 days in blogger world is like a year I swear!) Ive been working crazy amounts and when I've not been working I've been sleeping! But I'm trying very hard to post regularly now and things in my personal life are beginning to settle down.  
Last week I was also lucky enough to go to London to the She Said Beauty: Social Network Website Launch! My lovely friend Brogan was kind enough to bring me along with her, and it was a brilliant day! The She Said Beauty team were lovely and amazing, we got to meet the CEO and have a chat about where the company is going and all the new things that are soon coming into play, and trust me they are worth the wait, (for a sneak peak click to see Brogans blog post here on the up and coming changes!) We also had our make up and eyelashes professionally done while sat sipping cocktails! I had a brilliant day and to top it off I left with a huuuuuge bag of goodies including OPI nail varnish, The Style File and so many more, I'd like to send huge thank you's to She Said Beauty. You can find a link to my She Said Beauty profile by clicking here.

 While we were in London we hit a few shops and I thought i'd include what I picked up in Forever 21, I live nowhere near a Forever 21 and get a bit excited when I see one! 
The first thing I picked up was a new bag, can you believe I don't actually own a black bag?! I saw this one hanging on its own on a rail and made a run for it! I love the studs on the front and I loveeeee how the straps being half way up the length of the bag mean it can fold over itself, I love the way it sits and makes it different. The bag was missing a tag so the cashier offered me 15% off which was brilliant so I paid around £21.




 Ive recently been looking for a new purse as I hated my old one, and I made it my mission to find a new purse while I was in London. I picked this up in Forever 21 too. I love how sleek and simple it is, and there are so many card and money slots, Ive fallen in love and think I may cry when it breaks, and I  was pleasantly surprised when it went through the checkout at £8 and not the £10 on the ticket! I got student discount on top of that so it was around the £7 mark.




I promise I won't be this absent again and will get a post to you guys at least once a week! Thank you for all the new lovely followers! If you have any questions or post requests pop them bellow! Until next time! 

Love

Haul - New look, Boots & Tesco!

Hey everyone! 
 Sorry for my absence, I've been crazy busy but things have calmed down and I can give you my undivided attention now! Also Thank you to everyone who's started following me. It was a loveeeely surprise!
 So I thought I would come back with a haul! I went up to West Quay in Southampton last Friday with my friends, unfortunately my bank account didn't want me to go crazy but i managed to pick up a few bits and bobs.
 First stop was New look! I'm quite a New look lover, and without even realising they slightly dominate my wardrobe. but who can resist! I picked up these two tops in the 2 for £6 offer. Which to me is a bargain! I love the two row straps, I think its such a pretty twist on a standard top. It sits just on my belly button and drapes down the sides and I thought they would just be prefect for summer! (When it decides to show its face!)





Also in New look I picked up this Aztec style print top. I'm a slight sucker for Aztec print as well and I loved how it resembled the American Flag as well! I'm not normally a fan of high neck lines, but I love how it sits! This was £12.99 if memory serves me well. But I got student discount which was even better!






Next stop was boots! I went in there planning to pick up something completely different to what I actually bought (as usual) But I got distracted by L'oreal's two for £14 offer! straight away the l'oreal Telescopic Mascara caught my eye. I've been meaning to pick this up for ages. It is probably the best mascara i own. I love using it on my bottom lashes too, and I really don't like the look of mascara on my bottom lashes. such a good investment!

 



To go with the offer I picked up a Color Riche lipstick in the shade Luminous Coral. Which I loveeee! It smells amazing! Which I know sounds weird but it truly does, and its so moisturising. It feels more like a balm then a lipstick. The shade works great with my skin tone and I love how only the label it states 'Brunettes' or 'Blondes' seeing as I seem to forever be buying the wrong shade for me! A lovely, bright, spring shade.




Next I headed to Tesco on the way home and found these babies hiding away at the back! I have been looking for ages for a pair of pastel trousers and these caught my eyes right away! I feel ankle grazers are a true sign that spring is here, and I'm going to embrace it no matter what mother nature says! I got these for £14. And they look great with the white top from new look! 



Let me know if you have any questions or blog suggestions! 

Love
