holiday wishlist #2


// MAC 217 brush £17 // chunky t-bar style heels - new look £20 // Maybelline BB cream £8 // cropped vests in mint & coral - H&M £1.99 ea // pineapple t-shirt - H&M £15 // Lace top - H&M £8 //

So i thought i'd do another holiday wishlist, as i'm doing my holiday shopping fairly early (in a few weeks) as me and Elliott are taking a trip, even though we live fairly near it, to Bluewater to do our summer shopping! Now as i said previously i don't want to get much, as i already have A LOT of clothes suitable for summer already e.g about 8 pairs of shorts, so i've listed off a few items that i need/want for this upcoming summer.

Firstly i've wanted to own the MAC 217 brush for absolutely ages, so i thought now was the time to buy it! It'll be the perfect little add to my daily brush collection, and i can't want to try it out with eye shadows etc.

Getting a BB cream is fairly self explanatory, it'll be hot in Tunisia so i won't really be wanting to wear heavy foundation particularly in the day, but with a BB cream it has high SPF meaning i can put it on and have some protection from the sun but also the coverage as well!

In the previous holiday wishlist i made i said that i was in look of some evening shoes, and i think these are the perfect pair, they have a chunky heel so they'll be easy and comfy to walk in and they're very 'open' so my feet won't get all hot in them, perfect!

H&M is the place to go for simple tops for the summer they're perfect for lounging around by the pool paired with some shorts, and at £1.99 each you can't really complain, i know i'll be picking up a few when i go shopping.I also saw the cute pineapple top on the H&M website and i kind of had a 'love at first site' moment with this top, i just think it's the cutest thing i've ever seen!!! I think priced at £15 is a bit steep, but i think i'll make an exception with this top.Lastly a simple black see-through lace top will be great for the holidays as a bikini cover-up, as you can just throw it on over the top of your swimsuit and be good to go for lunch after a morning by the pool, can't wait!

Have you found anything recently that'll be great for summer or vacation?

february wishlist




1. Barry M Nail Paint in NP161 // Barrym.com I love this colour of nail varnish, it's a very deep purple but this particular nail varnish has different flecks of dark green in it too , which is what makes it such a lovely purple nail polish!
2. Real Techniques Stippling Brush // Boots As you may know i am a huge fan of these brushes, i think they're amazing! I currently have the core collection (orange) the eye set (purple) and the blush brush (pink) and i love every single brush and get some use out of each one. I have been wanting to try out the stippling brush for a while now as i've heard it's very good for foundation application to give an almost 'airbrushed' look to the skin. It's also been known to be great for blush!
3. Spotty Blouse // H&M A really lovely patterned blouse, which is black & white that'll be great for the up and coming monochrome trend!
4. Rouge Pure Shine Sheer Lipstick in Pink Diamond // YSL Recently i've been loving more nude shade lipsticks or the 'your lips but better' shades and i think this one is just beautiful! It also has really pretty packaging, but i shouldn't really justify that as a reason for buying it!
5. Floral & Check Skater Skirt // Topshop Again, another item of clothing that fits in well with the monochrome trend, but i also love the pattern on this skirt! It'll look great with some tights, black ankle boots and pair with a simple white blouse and cute cardigan. 
6. Naked Basics Palette // Urban Decay  I've been wanting this eyeshadow palette ever since i heard about it coming out, due to my love of the original Naked Palette with me using it every day. I think this looks like such a great every day palette where you can use the eyeshadows for various things, such as the black as a liner, or the darker browns for filling in the eyebrows etc. 
7. Lace Cropped Top // Topshop I love the simplicity of this cropped top and how it can add a bit of a more feminine touch to any casual more masculine outfit, such as high waist jeans and a leather jacket with boots.
