<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">Hello!</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">I thought I do a little post today on a few of the things I've done to brighten up my bedroom recently. I've definitely been inspired by some of the gorgeous rooms I see whilst browsing through tumblr. </span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">The colour scheme in my room is fairly simple..whites, creams and golds, although my far wall has Chinese inspired paper on it which was here when I moved in and although it doesn't really match, I still like it.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">My most recent purchase has been this lampshade which I purchased from Wilkinsons. I really liked the chandelier design with the dangling crystals and thought it added a bit more sparkle to my room.</span></div>

I also fancied making my room a tad cosier, as I have wooden floors which can be a little cold on bare feet at this time of year! So I bought myself a cream faux sheepskin rug. It's so soft and yeah sometimes I just lay on it and stroke it...</div>

And lastly I've had these two photo frames sitting around on my window sill for over a year completely empty. I could never find a photograph small enough to fit in them. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
Then a few weeks ago I was having a clear out and found an old calender of Mucha paintings from last year and decided to cut out a few of the selection prints they show on the back. They don't quite fit perfectly but they look prettier than standing empty.</div>

I just thought I'd share a recent buy with you. I perused the internet for quite a while before settling on this earring holder, as a knew I wanted a white one which would hold studs as well as a few smaller dangly earrings. Once I reduced my earring hoard by about a third I placed them in, which was quite time consuming, but only has to be done once! <br />
I really like it as is rotating and therefore space conscious and I can actually see all the earrings I own, which will hopefully stop me going out and buying similar ones!<br />

If you like it too you can pick it up a similar one <a href="http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/REVOLVING-EARRING-JEWELLERY-STAND-SQUARE-NEW-3B-WHITE-/390552120068?pt=UK_Jewellery_Watches_JewelleryBoxes_Supplies_CA&hash=item5aeeb86b04" target="_blank">here. </a><br />
This is the same seller I used, although I think they may have ran out of the circular ones. There's still a lot to choose from though if you have a browse. <br />

Long time no blog! To be precise it's almost over three months, so a really big apology to the few that may have wondered where I've been.<br />
To be honest I don't have a massive excuse. I think I've just been lacking inspiration recently and having a bit of a mind block. I've also not been shopping a great deal which is very rare occurrence, I think I've just been getting fed up with the cold weather we've been having in the UK of late and it's not been inspiring me to find anything new. (There's only so many jumpers and boots you can buy!) Plus I've recently found out that my job will be finishing in June, so I've been carefully considering the things I buy and not just purchasing things on a whim. But on the plus side I'm hoping that this will allow me to have more time to blog, and not neglect you guys. Now I'm getting back into blogging I've really realised how much I've missed it.<br />
<br />
Oh a little up date. I had a massive 6 inches cut off my hair on Friday, after having it long for such a long time I thought it was time for a change and I'm so glad I did. It sounds strange but I actually feel I can do a lot more with my hair at this length, and having a topknot no longer gives me a headache from all that weight! Hope you like it.<br />
<br />
I'll be back soon <br />
K xx <br />

<br />
Just a quick heads up to all you bargain hunters out there! I discovered in Tesco today that many items on their stand were only £3! Plus one of my favourite mascaras ever (liner effect) was also in the deal. I think it usually retails for around £9.50, so this was a nice little discount. I also picked up the volume glamour mascara and 10 hour sleep effect foundation, (which I'm excited to try out) for...you guessed it, £3 each! I even checked on the little customer scanner beforehand in case they'd made an error!<br />

<div style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;">
<br /></div>
Hello lovelies!<br />
<br />
Today I'm going to show you how I get the most out of my wavy hair. My hair is naturally pretty much a mix of everything, colour wise and texture wise. Some parts of my hair, especially at the front are baby blonde and straight, whilst other parts are dark and curly, my hair just doesn't seem to make up its mind on what it wants to do!<br />
So here is how I achieve my wavy look..<br />
Firstly I wash my hair with John Frieda's Curl Around shampoo and conditioner, these are by far the best products I've used to de-frizz and define waves. I then towel dry my hair and turn my head upside down and gently scrunch all over my head, whilst using the diffuser of my hair dryer at a low heat setting. Apologies for the poor pictures, photo taking and blow drying are not the easier things to do together!<br />
<br />

<br />
Once my hair is around half dry I'll turn my head back up and use some Umberto Giannini Curl Friends Scrunching Jelly, particularly on the ends of my hair, and continue to blow dry with the diffuser until almost dry, then I'll pop on few sprays of Umberto Giannini Natural Curls Styling Spray. I'll also use this as a quick pick me up through out the day.<br />

<br />
*Quick tip* for an even curlier look, I'll put my hair in a loose plait over night, let down in the morning, and spritz over with the styling spray. <br />

I thought I'd do a post today on the make up products I typically use everyday. During the week whilst going to work I tend it keep things fairly natural looking and simple, as time is very precious in the morning! But I'm also not one to divert too much from neutral colours anyway and nearly always wear a gold or bronze colour eyeshadow and nude lip. (Although red lipstick is definitely having a moment with me right now!)<br />
<br />
So here are the products, as you can see quite a few of them are sample sizes because I like to try out products before I fully commit. Especially when they are a little more expensive. <br />
<br />
I forgot to photo these but the first thing I use in the morning are <b>Johnson's face wipes</b> just to take off any excess make up. I then moisturise my face with <b>Superdrug's Vitamin E cream</b>, it's nothing too fancy but I've been using it for around two years and it really suits my skin. I then put on a small amount of <b>Benefit's</b> <b>"that gal" face primer</b> to set my make up and apply my foundation(s).<br />
Currently I'm using <b>Max Factor lasting performance</b> in 100 fair, as it's one of the few foundations that is light enough for my winter skin tone, and occasionally I'll mix it with my <b>Clinique Superbalanced Foundation</b> in alabaster. <br />
Next I'll try to tackle my stubborn under eye circles with both <b>YSL's touche éclat</b> and <b>Soap & Glory's "trick and treatment"</b>. I know this product is a bit of a miss with some beauty bloggers, but I actually really like it and finds that it hides my dark circles well. I then apply my blusher which currently is <b>"life's a peach" by Sleek</b>, and lastly <b>Benefit's High Beam</b> to illuminate my cheek and brow bones. <br />
Next I'll fill in any gaps in my eyebrows with the <b>HD brows kit</b> and move onto my eyes, where I've been using the <b>"nude on nude natural look kit" from NYX</b>. It's got some lovely golds and bronzes in it which is perfect for me. Then I'll apply a sweep of gel eyeliner, my current favourite is from <b>Collection (2000)</b> and then lastly, I'll curl my eyelashes and pop on <b>"bad gal lash" mascara from Benefit</b>.<br />
<br />

<br />
<br />
*Make up tools used= Real Techniques buffing and contour brushes, Max Factor blusher brush and No7 eyelash curler*<br />
<br />
Here is the finished product, a definite improvement from the starting look, and only takes around ten minutes. Please excuse the hat hair in the last photos!! <br />

Something a little bit different today. I mentioned on my last post that I was going to a Victorian Christmas event today which actually happened to be a Tudor one this year. It was so lovely, we had mulled wine and mince pies in the restaurant and then went inside the manor house (it was built in 1280!) to sing some carols and watch a traditional performance by people called 'mummers'. There were also lots of chances to do Christmas crafts. <br />
Here's some photos from the day:<br />

Also our Christmas tree is now up, and I've spent this afternoon decorating. I chose a traditional gold and red theme. <br />

There was also this little gem I found in the bottom of the decorations
which I remember making in infant school when I was around 5. Just
looking at him makes me laugh!<br />

Happy December! I don't let myself feel Christmassy until the start of this month, because I think it spoils it a bit if it's so drawn out. But let me tell you I am definitely feeling festive now, after starting a little bit of present shopping, seeing the Christmas lights and having a gingerbread latte. (The only thing missing was opening the first door on my advent calender! I definitely don't think 23 is too old for this, and may just have to buy my own as my parents have obviously forgotten this year!) <br />
<br />
Anyway I just thought I'd quickly show you two items that I purchased from Asos a couple of days ago. I've been wanting a new purse for ages and had seen a couple that I liked. But when I saw that this one had been reduced from £17 to £11.50 I snapped it up. It has lots of different card compartments which is really good for me as I seem to have accumulated so many cards recently, and always find myself fumbling through my purse trying to find the right one. I think it's sold out on Asos now but you can still find it on the River Island website <a href="http://www.riverisland.com/women/bags--purses/purses/black-laser-cut-clip-top-purse-621421" target="_blank">here.</a><br />

I also bought this Kath Kidston <a href="http://www.asos.com/Cath-Kidston/Cath-Kidston-Zip-Top-Purse/Prod/pgeproduct.aspx?iid=2452649&SearchQuery=purses&sh=0&pge=0&pgesize=20&sort=3&clr=Circledaisypink" target="_blank">purse</a>, which I'm going to use to put make-up items in (lipsticks, nail file, hand cream etc) and then pop in my bag, which will hopefully keep things a bit tidier.<br />

<br />
I'm hoping to go to a little country house tomorrow, where they do a real 'Victorian Christmas'. There's always a massive fire, people dress up in traditional costume, sing carols and you can make little Christmas decorations like pomanders. I missed going last year, so I'm really looking forward to it this year. I'll try and take some pictures for you all.<br />
<br />
What are you doing this weekend? Anything Christmassy?<br />

<br />
I know, I know, long time no blog! I do feel really bad for neglecting it for so long, but I have been feeling ill for about the past two and a half weeks and have had absolutely no energy, the only thing I've wanted to do when I get home from work is go to bed!<br />
<br />
Anyway I'm feeling a lot better now, so hopefully lots and lots of blog posts will be coming your way! Oh and thank you lovelies for sticking by me, it means a lot!<br />
<br />
So on to the title...<br />
<br />
A few weeks ago I received an email from a company called Firmo who specialise in fashionable eye wear -both prescription and non-prescription glasses and sunglasses, asking me if I would like to try out a pair of glasses for them.Of course I would!<br />
<br />
After narrowing it down to one pair and filling in my online prescription, (I'm very slightly short-sighted, so I sometimes wear my glasses when driving at night or to watch TV) my lovely new glasses were shipped to me extremely quickly all the way from China. (I know I'm sad but this excited me in itself, I love receiving things from overseas!)<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-slE9tjmt-Hk/ULCt7WNtFJI/AAAAAAAAAgM/8PLrg9n4QNo/s1600/blogger-image--1441764437.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-slE9tjmt-Hk/ULCt7WNtFJI/AAAAAAAAAgM/8PLrg9n4QNo/s640/blogger-image--1441764437.jpg" width="480" /></a></div>
<br />
<br />
<br />
So here they are, I chose #OK20664S in tortoise shell. I have to be honest from the photographs on the website I didn't realise that they were going to be quite so big, but I have definitely grown to love them as they give that whole 'geek-chic' look. They also make my vision is much clearer, I find myself not wanting to take them off! <br />
<br />
The glasses are very good quality, and feel light but sturdy. You all get an amazing amount of extras with your order which are also of fabulous quality. This includes a hard glasses case, a material one, an optical wipe and also an adjusting kit if your glasses don't quite fit your face.<br />

<br />
There's plenty of range of the website if your looking for a new pair of glasses, I'm really happy that I have two now as I keep one in the car and the another on my bed side table, so they're always handy. Also (more likely for any southern hemisphere readers reading this at the moment) Firmoo have plenty of fashionable sunglasses for you to choose.<br />
<br />
Now for the best part, how would you like to get these glasses or any other on <a href="http://www.firmoo.com/free-glasses.html" target="_blank">Firmoo.com</a> that take your fancy for FREE!?? Well you can just by clicking on the link above! All you have to do is pay for the P&P. <br />
<br />
Let me know if you do!<br />

Just a quick post to show you these bargain storage drawers which I picked up from Wilkinson's for £6!<br />
<br />
I have quite a lot of white furniture in my room so they go perfectly, plus I think that they look a lot more expensive than they were!<br />
At the moment I'm using it to store my rings and hair accessories. If you want to pick one up you'll find them in the Christmas gifts section.<br />

<br />
So I thought I'd take a trip down memory lane and share some of my fashion and beauty disasters!<br />
<br />
<i><b>Hair</b></i><br />
<br />
Hair mascara<br />
I had a bright blue one of these, and it looked exactly the same as regular mascara. I imagined having these lovely streaks of colour ( yeah bright blue...lovely) but instead it looked like I'd just put paint on my hair, it dried all hard and gloopy and was an absolute nightmare to get out!<br />
<br />
Crimping<br />
Oh I loved crimping! My BaByliss appliance had three separate crimping plates, PLUS a flat one for straightening, which straightened about as much as a circle! I used to crimp all over..even my fringe..so cool! <br />
<br />
Lemons<br />
'Put some lemon juice in your hair and go and sit out in the sun, it will really lighten your hair' I tried this about three times and it never worked. It just left me with dark blonde really tangled hair. <br />
<br />
<br />
<i><b>Make up</b></i><br />
<br />
Glitter<br />
Glitter, glitter everywhere! Rolled all over my arms, on my eyeshadow, in my lipgloss, sprayed all over my hair, I LOVED glitter! <br />
<br />
Bindis<br />
I used to wear these on my forehead to school and then sometimes if I was feeling really adventurous, (probably at the weekend) I'd wear two at each corner of my eyes. <br />
<br />
<br />
<i><b>Fashion</b></i><br />
<br />
Skirt/trousers<br />
Why oh why, surely you only need one or the other!? Needless to say I loved mine and had a beautiful pair of cream ones! <br />
<br />
Kappa<br />
Oh the shame! I was quite a tomboy growing up and aged around 11 I only really wore sports clothes, and this included some absolute gems. A velvet orange and blue Adidas top, a le coq sportif over the head raincoat, and my <span class="st">pièce de résistance</span>, (I wore this A LOT) my Kappa track suit, with navy bottoms and an acid yellow top! (I know you're well jel!)<br />
<br />
Shoes<br />
Wow, where do I start? I had navy blue platforms which I begged my parents for when the Spice Girls ruled my world. <br />
Black clogs -so impractical when you're a kid and trying to do important stuff like running and they keep slipping off!<br />
See through glitter jelly shoes! Probably my favourite shoes as a girl, before my tomboy phase. Seriously comfy and I felt so grown up with a heel!<br />
<br />
So that's just a snippet of my 'not so cool style' growing up!<br />
Please leave a comment with any of your fashion or beauty mishaps, I'm sure there are loads that I've missed and I'd love to hear them and reminisce!<br />

I headed down to London just after midday and after a little shopping and an epic walk trying to find the base of the Shard, (it's not as easy as you might think!) I found my way to the gorgeous Hempel Hotel near Hyde Park.<br />
On arrival we were handed a glass of pink champagne and had a chance to view and try out some of the wonderful beauty and home ware products Next have on offer this Christmas.<br />
<br />

This beautiful display showcased the new range of women's fragrances,'The tale of four cities' - beauty products and home ware inspired by the fashion capitals of the world.

In addition there were also some lovelies ladies on hand to offer massages, nail painting and even eyebrow threading, ( yes I did! It was my first time, and probably not the wisest thing to do at an event, I quickly had to rush to the toilets and apply extra foundation on all my red bits! Haha) but needless to say the lady did do a great job. <br />
We were also treated to some lovely food, I had some yummy fish and chips with tartar sauce, washed down with a few more glasses of bubbly. <br />
Plus I had the chance to meet lovely bloggers!! Everyone was so friendly and I had an amazing time talking to you all, even if I did have to leave a little early. Shout out to <a href="http://rebeccape93.blogspot.co.uk/" target="_blank">Rebecca</a>, <a href="http://glossyboutique.blogspot.co.uk/" target="_blank">Emma</a>, <a href="http://cherriesinthesnowbeauty.blogspot.co.uk/" target="_blank">Kat</a> and the lovely ladies from <a href="http://cosmeticsshoppingandintoxication.blogspot.co.uk/p/about-us.html" target="_blank">CSI Beauty Blog</a>!!<br />
And of course not forgetting the lovely <a href="https://twitter.com/gglover2" target="_blank">Gemma</a> for inviting me!<br />
To top it all off, on leaving we were handed a beautiful goody bag, with some gorgeous products inside.<br />

</div>
<div style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;">
Hi all!</div>
I have recently come back from a lovely trip to London (more to follow on the main reason why I was there!), and was so excited to go into the new Tottenham Court Road Primark. I'd heard really great things about it and it definitely didn't disappoint! I have to admit I really dislike the Oxford Street Primark and have never bought anything in there, it just stresses me out, but this store is new and fresh, the interior is really cool, and there are no clothes on the floor! Yay! <br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg1Vyp8i0Ebu2a3fkZDm7tS767mlAOdUZP6es9hwk4KGWYivoIG_owDuJPUWF5Ti7hfyX81rJFcEukmF-mst0QazuaQiYMZNJ4Wz7u5wSroTuBCHt5c-vlLxOr-II7GLDm1bqqCK4QanRc/s640/blogger-image--510492759.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><br /></a></div>
Anyway they also had some really good sales! So here's a few things I purchased, it could have been a whole lot more, but in a way my poor feet saved my purse from getting any lighter because they were aching so bad, I just had to stop walking around!<br />
<br />

<br />
I picked up this lovely black and gold detailed shirt, reduced to £5! <br />
And this pencil skirt for a bargain £7!<br />

I also picked up this lovely gold statement necklace, for £4. I've been looking for one to wear over my knitted jumpers and fell in love with this one. </div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
And lastly I just wanted to show you my new bag, I bought yesterday from a New Look store near my home. I was looking for something functional that would go with almost every outfit I own, and be big enough for all the crap I just have to carry around (just in case!). So this one was perfect and I'm sure I'll get loads of use out of it.</div>

Yes I recently got my hands on a lovely freebie from Dior and wanted to share it all with my lovely followers! <br />
Head down to any Boots store with a Dior counter armed with the voucher at the bottom of this post, and you can get your mitts on a lovely mini eyeshadow palette, and two samples of their nude glow foundation! You can also be booked in for a 15 minute consultation to find your perfect shade.<br />
Unfortunately for me the Dior lady wasn't in when I went to pick up my free samples so I couldn't have a consultation, and therefore no foundation. But I did pick up the eyeshadow palette and it is gorgeous! The packaging is really sleek and the pigmentation is really strong, (but I suppose what else can you expect from Dior!?)<br />

Click <a href="http://www.creative-associates.org.uk/NewFiles/ICP00260MCDiorOffer.html" target="_blank">here</a> for the voucher.<br />
<br />
It's valid until the 4th October, however the stock does tend to go down quite fast, so I would try and get there as soon as you can, and I hope you all have a little more luck than me and manage to get them both! <br />

I just thought I'd show you a recent bargain from Topshop I found. I LOVE perusing through their jewellery sales and always seem to find something I like. So here is what I bought this time....<br />
<br />

I've been looking for a collar necklace for a while and really like the pretty beading on this one. Take a look at their sale if you can, they always seem to have a lot of current pieces reduced. (This one was £2.50!)<br />
<br />
Hope you're all having a good week, it's almost Friday!! <br />
<br />

I just thought I'd do a quick post on the outfit I wore today. Nothing too special, but I'm secretly happy that it's getting cooler because autumn is my favourite time of year for fashion and I get to wear boots, and scarves and jackets! I also picked up some absolute bargains in the New Look sale today so I'll do a post on those soon!<br />
<br />
Hope you've all had a lovely weekend!<br />

Hello!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I recently purchased these press-on nails on an absolute whim, I was in Asda and saw them on the corner of an aisle and decided I had to have them. I think I've only worn false nails about three times in my life so it was quite an unusual purchase for me! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I mainly decided to get them because:</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
1) For some reason certain nails just wont seem to grow recently, they've become quite brittle and flaky with exception to my little and ring finger, strange huh!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
2) I saw them in the french manicure design and as hard as I try and can NEVER get perfect lines when I attempt this myself with nail varnish, so I thought why not cheat a little bit!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I purchased these for £7, which yes I thought was a little steep, but I suppose curiosity and wanting my nails to look a bit prettier than they actually do got the better of me!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
The product is packaged within a big nail varnish bottle which I thought was really cute and within there you get 24 nails with the adhesive strip attached on the back of each, a preparation wipe, and a small nail file. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

So here are my rather embarrassing before-hand nails. They look quite dull as I used the preparation wipe, which I guess removes any excess oil to help the nails stick better. You're also advised to wash your hands thoroughly with soap before application.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
The next step involved me sorting out the correct sizes for my nails, now I have to say these nails are SHORT, which means you really have to file down your own nail to get a good fit and no visibility. There pack does provide a good range of sizes, however I couldn't find one to perfectly fit my thumb nails, I guess I'm just a bit abnormal and it's rather wide and long! <a href="https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-QYeARRvBv_g/UFWfadoKlfI/AAAAAAAAAWw/6Uha-6ixRzQ/s1600/blogger-image-2121377634.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><br /></a></div>

It does advise on the pack to place all your chosen nails in order before application and do your thumb and index finger last, which I would definitely recommend as it can get slightly fiddly! As you can see from the photo below each nail has an adhesive strip attached which you simply peel off and then place on your nail, and make sure you press down firmly. I held my for 30 seconds which seemed to work quite well.</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
So here is the finished product, I was very 'impressed' with how they turned out! The quality of the nails is really good, very shiny and hard-wearing and the don't feel loose at all. Also the fact that they are short means that certain tasks like texting and undoing buttons aren't a problem! The only downside as you can probably see from the last photo, is that the one on the thumb nail is slightly too small so you can see part of my natural nail. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Would I re-purchase? Yes definitely but I think only for a special occasion as they are a little expensive for my to justify regular use! </div>

<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Hi everyone! I just thought I'd do a quick outfit of the day. Firstly apologies for the poor quality of the photos, I've had a major disaster camera-wise and have had two memory cards break on me in the space of a week, so ipad camera it is for the time being! I've had a lovely day in the sunshine today, but sadly I think that this weekend may have been some of the last days of summer, so I thought I'd make the most of it and wear a dress that I haven't had chance to wear all season!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Hope you've all had a good weekend!</div>

I just thought I'd show you a couple of things that I picked up from Matalan recently. I originally went in there to take a look at their jewellery, as I really like a lot of their pieces -Topshopesque at a fraction of the price. But unfortunately my local store seems to have dramatically cut down their stock so I didn't end up getting any. However I did pick up two items...<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-7j-wyx6a6bY/UDvRadFcxkI/AAAAAAAAATc/1khLK6IIYBA/s1600/photo.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-7j-wyx6a6bY/UDvRadFcxkI/AAAAAAAAATc/1khLK6IIYBA/s320/photo.JPG" width="320" yda="true" /></a></div>
<br />
The first item was a tan waist belt with a horse buckle for £3, I'm absolutely loving anything animal related at the moment, and thought this was a real bargain. Secondly I fell in love with this scarf. I'll admit I most definitely have a scarf obsession and do not need anymore, but what can I say, It felt like autumn yesterday, and I was cold and caught off guard, and desperately needed something to keep my neck warm! I think that's a valid excuse (maybe!)<br />
<div>
Also I really love the print, I know it's a bit grannyish, something old ladies would wear as their headscarves, but I like it! Does anyone know what it's called, if it even has a name?</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Hope you all had a great bank holiday, despite the weather!</div>

I picked these up in a charity shop for £2, I was originally going to use them for putting desserts in, but now I think they're too pretty to be stored in the kitchen and only used occasionally, so I might use them to store jewellery or make up in instead.</div>

I picked this up in Primark for £8, it's just a pretty standard bag that I think will go with most things, and look smart. I also like the fact that you can use it as a shoulder bag and a clutch.</div>

<br />
<br />
I've been using my previous liquid eyeliner for possibly a little too long, so decided to purchase myself a brand new one. I've wanted to try a gel eyeliner for a while now so snapped this one up at Tesco where it was on offer at a pound cheaper than usual (£3.99.)<br />
<br />
I've been really impressed with it so far, it has a really nice consistency which glides onto the eyelid using the special brush really easily. I'm definitely not the best at keeping my hand steady when applying eyeliner, but as the product is a little thicker I find it less easy to make mistakes.<br />
<br />
The product also claims to last 12 hours, and let me tell you, it has stayed on all day with no smudges! Even though today's been pretty hot and humid! (25°c) <br />
<br />
I would definitely buy this product again, they do have some other colours in the range, a gold, brown, purple and teal which I may also try if I'm feeling a bit more adventurous! <br />
