Mid Week Haul

So this week i've spent a fair bit of money online shopping and on the highstreet, so I though i'd share my purchases here with you!



Firstly on my shopping haul is two Yankee Candles. I picked up Lake Sunset & Fireside Treats. As you can see from the photos i've only burned Lake Sunset so far, but even without burning I can smell how amazing Fireside Treats is - hence why i'm saving that one to burn second! 
I am burning them both in my bedroom, but they are both lovely scents for the whole home. Fireside Treats is super sweet & Lake Sunset is very fresh. 


Next up I made a tiny MAC order, of my Primer & MAC's Matte Lipstick in Velvet Teddy. 


I was due a long awaited eye test and I finally got round to it. I replaced my black Ted Baker Glasses, for a brown pair of Michael Kors. I am loving them and I find brown goes with so much more than my black pair! However, annoyingly Michael Kors have stopped provided a case for their glasses (ridiculous when they cost so much!) so I was given this gorgeous one by Dolce & Gabbana. 


From Toyshop I brought a grey cropped jumper, a grey tunic and this classic denim skirt. I love the collars on both these jumpers as I think they are very warm and stylish at the moment! They look great with any coat or jacket. I have had my eye on this skirt forever, and finally took the plunge! I think its a nice alternative to jeans and very flattering. 


Again from Toyshop I also picked up this over sized denim shirt. (as you can tell I was wearing it when I took these photos!)  This is a petite size 4, so as you can tell it's super oversized! I love the look of this, especially with a gold necklace.


I love a good smelling room, hence the amount candles I buy! So I was excited to try out the new Zoella Reed Diffuser. Its super strong, but not in a sickly way. I think this is definitely going to be my new bedroom scent!



A shopping trip wouldn't be right without a trip to LUSH. Especially now their christmas pieces are in! I picked up only a few things i've never had before. I brought 'Pop in the Bath', 'Butterbear' & 'Candy Mountain'. I cannot wait to try these beauties out!


LUSH also gave me two freebies! *yay*, as this never happens to me! They gave me 'Serendipity Soap' & 'Coal Face'. Both which can be used on the face & body. I'm also super excited to try these ones out as i've never used any face products from LUSH!


I brought the Superdrug Limited Edition Vanilla Fudge Mask this week. MY GOD. The smell of this is incredible, absolutely to die for! It's self heating which is super relaxing. I also find you get 2 uses out of this, which makes it a bargain at 99p.


Lastly I brought 2 new make up brushes this week. Both Real Techniques, I brought the Face Sculpt and the Setting brush. 
I absolutely love the colour of these brushes. I really trust Real Techniques, and have many of their brushes. I plan on using the Face Sculpt for my foundation & the Setting for setting my concealer under my eyes.

This Weeks Favourite Purchases.

So this week i've brought a few items & I thought i'd share with you the ones I love!


Sugar Baby Tahiti Sweetie Candle - £6.99
The first of this weeks favourite is a candle I picked up from Home Sense. It smells exactly like my Boux Avenue candle and was a lot cheaper. It is very sweet & very fresh. I love the box it also comes in with the diamond on the top. 

Michael Kors Purse - RRP £89, Brought for £29
This was another bargain from Home Sense. One i really was not expecting to find! A grey Michael Kors purse at a bargain under £30! I already have a huge brown Michael Kors Tote Bag which cost a near £300 which I got as a gift, so when I spotted this bargain in a home store I was completely thrilled. 

CND Shellac in Salmon Run - £12.69
I used to have Shellac manicures once every 2 weeks. But earlier on this year I decided to buy the kit myself and have collected various colours since. 
This is a new one to my collection - Salmon Run. It's a lovely light coral/orange and is very suitable for summer & holidays. 

Chanel Chance 100ml - £80
My absolute favourite scent of the minute. Chanel Chance. I am a huge fan of Chanel CoCo Mademoiselle, which is my signature scent, which is a very classic fragrance. However this one is lighter and more summery, which I love. 

The Hunt £3.99, Sparkling Stilettos £6.60
This week I have brought 2 novels. One for home & one for an upcoming holiday. 
The Hunt by T.J.Lebbon is a thriller story, which I LOVE. I find them exciting & that I can't wait to see what is going to happen. I am so far only 3 chapters in and already it is very thrilling, so I will post my verdict once i've finished!
The second book i've purchased for a holiday, by TOWIE Star Jess Wright, Sparkling Stilettos. This as the cover clearly denotes, is not a thriller. However was keen to read the story after hearing Jess talk about the story line on television. 

Sandals - Accessorize £35
Lastly I brought these sandals from accessorize for an event. Although after wearing them for 4 hours I lost one of the main diamond pieces - typical!
However I returned them this week and they were more than happy to exchange for a new pair. 
They are stunning and looking lovely on, however be aware to be very careful when wearing this kind of sandal, or ensure you retain a receipt as these are very prone to losing their stones!
