This video is a collective haul, meaning that I will be showing some of my recent purchases. You'll see the clothes and accessories I bought from different shops such as Topshop, Terranova, Tally Weijl, Stradivarius and more! Hope you enjoy! Don't forget to watch in HD!

Hello everyone! Yes, I've gone back to my old blogging days. What I mean is that due to reaching the end of my first year at university, I am going to be posting on the blog twice a week, again. On Tuesday and Friday, and if that works out I might even blog like last summer, three times a week. But it's early to tell, so let's hope it all works out.
Now, let's move on to today's blog post which is a haul. Me? Shopping? I know that must be a big surprise to mankind! Okay, let's be serious. I went into Topshop just for a browse and I had no intentions of buying anything. Usually, I don't buy from Topshop, since I find it overpriced. But that is not the case when they have sales, and yes the things I got where on sale.

After having a thorough look at the jewellery they had there, I was able to spot a very interesting pair of earrings. They're the ones shown in the photo above. As you can see they are gold with a pearl stud and have a chain that holds a triangle with some carved detailing. I absolutely fell in love with them, when I saw them. In addition, I feel like this pair of earrings describes my personality somehow. I love pearls as I like being classy and elegant, but the triangles bring an edgier look to the jewel, as I like being edgy with my appearance. I hope I was able to make some sense, if not then forgive me. I haven't told you the best part about this purchase. From 12€ it went down to 3€!

Hello everyone! I hope you've all had a great weekend. Today, I uploaded a video on my youtube channel and I thought I would share that with you. The video shows what I had in my old Debenhams wallet, receipts, business cards, ids and more. In addition, I'm showing my new purse from Accessories and the process of moving my things to it. Hope you enjoy!

Hello everyone! I hope you've all had a great weekend! Yesterday, I was cleaning up my room and decided to apply some changes to the way I store my jewellery. Today, I wasn't sure what to blog about, and then it hit me that I should share my jewellery organization and storage with you. I always love seeing how people store their accessories and I hope this post will be interesting to some of you.
As you can see from the photograph above, I store most of my jewellery in clear cases. To be more specific, I store some of my arm candy in a Ferrero Rocher empty container. (I don't particularly like those chocolates, but I love the boxes they come in. ) My bangles are stored in a clear, round vase, that I used to put my makeup brushes in. As for my earrings, I used a white, shoe box lid which, I wrapped around it a pair of white, old tights and I just place the earrings in the the fabric. Now, I can't take credit for this idea, because I found it on youtube, a couple of years ago.

Happy New Year everyone! I hope 2013 will be bring happiness and health for you and your loved ones!
I had a few ideas for today's blog post and I couldn't decide what to do. First post of the year should be something good and informative, don't you think?
I finally came to the decision that something like 2012 Favourites would be a great post. After all, I haven't done many favourites posts. So, I am writing this blog post with a cup of warm tea and with the relaxing sound of the rain landing on my roof. Ah, so romantic...Um, yeah, I've lost my mind...I need to watch Pride and Prejudice again!
Okay, are you still with me? The products/items I've decided to share with you tonight are what I consider to be the ones I had been using the most in 2012. Let's begin!
MAKEUP:
Favourite Concealer: Select Cover Up from Mac in NW20, is a product that has been featured previously. I found myself completely skipping foundation during the summer and all I used was this little fella on the areas that needed some kind of coverage. I haven't used foundation since then, but my skin doesn't have a lot of blemishes. It's average teenage, sensitive skin. I wouldn't recommend using this without setting with powder on the under eye area, simply because it will crease. The coverage of it is quite light and the consistency is a bit watery, so if you are trying to make blemishes completely vanish, this isn't something for you. I like it because it's not heavy and you need a very small amount, it will last ages!
Favourite Powder: The LR Colours Loose Powder has be in my makeup collection for many years. As I've said the concealer needs to be set and the powder adds some more coverage to the skin. Although, this powder is my favourite, I have been wanting to get a pressed powder because this one can get your vanity a little bit dusty. Do you have any recommendations?
Favourite Eye Product: This one has to be Bare Study Paint Pot from Mac, without a doubt! Every time I have no idea what to do with my makeup, or I have very little time to get ready, somehow, I always use this product. The colour is an amazing, warm champagne with tons of tiny shimmery particles that instantly makes the eyes seem awake. It blends like a dream and I find that it can be worn completely on its own, on my normal to dry skin, without creasing.
Favourite Palette: Bare Eye Shadow Palette from Sigma. This shouldn't be a surprise to someone who follows my blog. I have filmed two makeup tutorials on my youtube account (link here) and I've posted a full review on the blog (link here). The shades in this palette are simply perfect for any look, you can go from the simplest everyday look to a very dramatic one. Also, the double ended brush included is a must have.
Favourite Mascara: Gosh Serious Volume Mascara, oh what a surprise! I have been using this mascara for such a long time, from the summer, and I think it's great. I have blogged about this one too (link here).

Hello everyone! How are you? Today I had my multimedia midterm exam and after that I decided to treat myself with a little shopping spree. So now I have a haul for you!
This item is so amazingly adorable! I absolutely love it! It's from Stradivarius and around 8€. Also, I purchased a black cardigan similar to the one I showed in my clothing wishlist which was 16€ and Medium sized. The last item I got from Stradivarius was a taupe, loose top which was 13€. Initially I picked up the Medium sized one, but it was enormous! So I bought the Small one. Moving on to Terranova. I bough this top that has a leopard or cheetah print, I really can't tell which is which! The top costed me 8€ and I also bought a teal pair of trousers. They're so soft that they feel like leggings, but a lot thicker. These were 16€ and both clothing items are a size small. I think I am going to get another pair of those trousers in a different colour and probably a medium size.
I am very pleased with the stuff I bought! I am thinking of filming a collective haul, since I have been making small purchases so often. What have you bought recently? Do you like any of the items shown?
Thank you for reading. I shall talk to you on Friday :)

Hey guys and girls of my blog! For this Friday's blog post I am going to share with you a recent clothing and accessories haul from Marks & Spencer. There was a crazy sale at the store and I was able to find some great pieces for my closet.
What did I get?
A lovely pair of long earnings that stole my heart at first sight, a big pair of boots that will be my companion for the cold and rainy days to come and a pair of high waisted denim trousers. In addition, I purchased two tops. An everyday English themed one and a more classy casual, black and ivory one. Also, I bought a pair of everyday, casual shorts with stripes and a lovely black dress with a star pattern on it.
Here take a closer look! I hope you enjoy! :)
