OOTD: 14/12/13

So, this is gonna be a quick, little outfit of the day post - enjoy!

First thing that I wore in this outfit, is this black and white swing fest. I wore a black bandeau underneath it, too.

To layer on top, I wore a denim shirt - unbuttoned with a burgundy coloured knitted cardigan over the too of that.

On my bottom half, I wore some dark navy leggings and my new Dr Marten boots!

I also wore my parka coat and grey woolly beanie. To acessorise, I just added a long owl necklace.

And that's it! Thanks for reading :)

What I wore and where it's from:

Vest - River Island

Denim Shirt - Select Fashion

Cardigan - Boohoo

Leggings - Republic

Dr Martens - Schuh

Parka - Select Fashion

Beanie - Newlook

Necklace - eBay

BIG BEAUTY HAUL!

It's a haul for todays post - enjoy! I went a little crazy in both Boots and Superdrug yesterday (hey, it's Christmas right?!) and here's what I picked up..

BarryM Nail Paint in 'Mint Green' £2.99:

I don't really have many green nail varnish shades and so I thought i'd pick this one up from Barry M!


BarryM Gelly Nail Paint in 'Blueberry' £3.99:

I love the Gelly shine range from Barry M and this particular shade is so pretty so I had to pick it up!

BarryM Nail Paint in 'Watermelon' £3.99:

This is another from the Gelly range and I think the shade is really interesting and I don't own another like it.

BarryM Nail Paint in 'Diamond Glitter' £3.99:

I really wanted a nice glitter top coat that I could put on practically any colour and this one is perfect. The glitter is so, so pretty and looks amazing on.

Soap and Glory's 'Hand Food' hand cream £5:

This is my all time favourite hand cream. It smells wonderful and makes your hands feel super soft and smooth. 

Natural Collection lipstick in 'Pink Mallow' £1.99:

I don't really have any lipstick colours such as this one and I thought it looked really pretty. Its a really pretty and quite natural pink shade which will be perfect to team with a more dramatic eye look.


MUA Blush Perfection cream blusher in 'Lush' £1:

Cream blushes have always interested me and I love the colour of this one, for a quid as well - you can't go wrong!


Boots 'Style Works' heat protectant spray £1.79:

I was in need of some new heat protectant spray and I clocked my eyes on this one. For the amount you get, it's a great price and so I thought I'd give it a go.

MUA eyeshadow trio in 'Pink Sorbet' £2.50:

I've seen this used by a few beauty gurus on Youtube and I always thought the shades were so pretty so I decided to get it myself. I look forward to creating some pretty eye looks with this trio!

Maybelline Kajal eyeliner in 'Black' £2.99:

Maybelline had a 3for2 offer on their products and considering I was in need of a new eyeliner, I picked this up!

MUA Pro-Base Conceal and Brighten kit in 'Porcelain - Beige' £3.50:

I know that certain shades of concealer helped to cover certain shades of discolouration and uneven pigment in your skin. With this in mind, I picked up this palette from MUA as it has various different shades.


Maybelline Colour Tattoo 24hr in 'On and On Bronze' £4.99:

I've heard so very much about these and I have wanted to try them for a while. Originally, I wanted the taupe colour but after swatching this one, I decided to get it. I really like the shade and I think i'll get a lot of use out of it!

Superdrug eyelash curlers £1.99:

I needed me some new curlers and I got these from Superdrug from a very decent price! Can't complain.

Superdrug tweezers £1.99:

Again, needed some tweezers too so I just picked these up and got 'em!

Maybelline Volum' Express Falsies mascara in 'Black' £7.99:

One of my favourite mascaras. This is one of the only mascaras that manages to give my lashes both a beautiful curl and amazing volume.

And that's the end of my haul, a pretty big one I know! I hope you liked this post and thank you so much for reading!

REVIEW: MUA £1 Nail Polishes!

Hey! I have another review for you all in todays post. I'm going to be reviewing MUA's recently released range of £1 nail polishes!

So, I currently I have 6 shades of this nail polish and they are as follows: Bright Coral, Fever Red, Frozen Yoghurt, Bold Blue, Lush Lilac and Deepest Purple. These are slowly becoming my favourite nail polishes and I shall tell you why..

For starters, they are just ONE pound - how good is that?! They are also packaged really nicely. It's very simply but still pretty - they remind me of Essie bottles.

Secondly, for their - the quality is amazing. These polishes are nicely pigmented and will go opaque in about 2 coats which is great for me. They dry quickly as well which is always a bonus.

These polishes have very decent staying power as well and usually last around a week or longer for me with only minor chipping which can be expected. There's a great colour range and I particularly like the shades of purple and pink that they have on offer.

Overall, I would seriously recommend these polishes. They are super cheap and are great quality. You really can't ask for better than that. For a quid, you might as well give them a go!

Have you tried these MUA polishes? What did you think? Let me know!
