Summer Must-Haves

Today I've decided to put together a few necessities for this summer. Hopefully this is useful for either packing for a vacation or just your everyday style this summer!

1- Halter Neck Tops

You can never go wrong with a halter neck! Not only are they stylish but they will keep you cool down on those very hot days.

2-Sandals

A good sandal could last you the whole summer without getting worn. In my opinion, sandals are cute on anyone .... Even if you have horrible feet.

3- Bikini

Now every girl needs this for swimming or just sun-bathing but why not pick out a cute bright coloured one?! 

4- Hand Jewellery

I think hand-jewellery looks really bohemian and chic. Perfect for having that 'casual but not too casual' vibe!

5-Fedora Hat

Hats aren't everyone's taste but recently I've seen so many women wearing hats and I think it looks really cute. I'll be trying out this trend myself.

6- Maxi Dresses with split sides

I have been really loving these dresses. It shows off those sleek,slender legs in all the right ways and oh my gosh just fabulous.

7-Printed shorts

Now I'm not a girl that will dress up every day in summer with dresses or skirts so when I want to have a lazy day,I'd wear a plain tee and a pair of printed shorts so it looks like I've made an effort in my appearance.

8-beach bag

If you're planning a day to the beach or to the pool, by the time you pack all your suncream,sunnies etc..your bag is full! The bigger the bag the better hunny!

This has just made me more excited for this summer.

Review || SOSU Gel Nail Polish 'Blue Skies'

Hello babes! Today I decided to do a review of a new gel nail polish that recently came out by Suzanne Jackson (Ireland's top blogger)! I got the shade 'Blue Skies'. They've been hopping off the shelves in every pharmacy (drug store) around the country and I'm glad because Suzanne deserves this success after all the hard work she does for her blog and her readers.

I've been loving blue nail polishes recently and this one has just topped the whole lot! It gives a nice shine without needing a UV light. Not bad. It lasts a few days without chipping and when it does chip, it doesn't chip badly.

Hopefully I can purchase another soon, not a bad price either! €7.99!

                                                   Until next time,

Wishlist | ASOS

As I was browsing through all different clothing websites looking for some inspiration, I found myself getting engrossed in ASOS! Such beautiful clothes for such great prices. Now I know we all have to watch how much we spend because we're not millionaires(Oh how I wish I was).

I thought I'd round up a few of my favourite items and what/ how I'd style it.

-ASOS T-Shirt with High Neck and Sketchy Floral Print For €30.14How beautiful is this?! In Ireland and the UK, even in summer it's not always the warmest so I believe this t-shirt is perfect for summer and keeping you warm. The floral pattern is just stunning and the zip in the back is so unique and cute. I would pair this with a pair of black cigarette trousers and nude peep-toe heels.

-ASOS Halter Playsuit with Crochet Trim For €34.25I am in-love with this Playsuit,the neckline is just crochet heaven!! Not only is white a perfect simple colour but it also makes your tan stand out. Really bohemian and chic. I think Rose-Gold flat sandals would be perfect for this Playsuit.

-ASOS Foil Pineapple Tee & Short Set For €24.66Now I know these are when we go to bed but how cute are they?I don't know whether I love the pineapples or the colours. Now if you're like me, shorts are essential for bed because it's so annoying and hot with long pj bottoms. 

-ASOS Occassion Short in Shadow Floral Print For €38.35

I love these shorts because they're classy yet they can be worn at any time! You can dress them up or dress them down! The floral pattern is gorgeous(I'm obsessed with floral if you can't tell). I would wear a ribbed long sleeved crop top. So stylish.

I am really loving ASOS at the moment, I hope these clothing items gives you inspiration for you're individual style.

Skincare Routine!

I always feel like this is a risky topic to blog about because what works for me might not work for someone else. Saying that, I have finally found a routine that does the job for me and I don't have to worry too much about my acne getting severe or noticeable. I feel confident enough to go bare face in public and not put foundation on.

I use "Lush Herbalism Cleanser"! I heard of this through MissMeghanMakeup on YouTube in one of her videos. So when I saw it in store I was delighted and my skin has cleared up a lot! As you can see it's not a liquid which I like because I get to control how much I use. Once added with a drop of water, it becomes a paste. Nice and easy.

If my skin feels dry, I like to exfoliate with "Lush Ocean Salt Face & Body Scrub". Not much is needed and it works wonders for dry skin like my own.

I then use my "Lush Spot Treatment" on any spots that are appearing.

I just picked this up in hope that it would work! Any spots I had are clearing up very nicely!

Lastly I apply moisturiser to keep my face nice and soft. I like to use Garnier Day Moisturiser,Simple Night Cream and Simple Eyecream. Simple isn't it? (excuse the pun).

Kiko Cosmetics Haul!

A few weeks ago, my classmates and I took a trip to Italy for three days. Let me tell you, it was one of the best experiences of my life! (If you want to see some pictures of it, check out my Instagram)

On the second day of the adventure we travelled to Venice, which is where I spotted Kiko.

For the price and quality of the products, I would shop there everyday. 

I originally bought four items but I lost my eyeliner before I could even try it out... devastated.

First product is this Tri-Bal Soul Baked Blush in the shade '03 Wild Mauve'! It is super pigmented and lasts for ages. The price was €14.90.. I was pleased because it wasn't too expensive and the packaging is just gorgeous. 

Next is the 'Eyes 204 brush'. I like to use it for my brows because I feel it gives a tidy & defined finish.

It could be used for eyeliner too but I couldn't work with it for that use. (comment if you would like an updated brow routine!) The price was €9.90.

Finally is this Eyebrow set. It comes with two shades of powder and a wax which I think is quite useful, and the utensils for the eyebrows. This has made its way into my everyday routine and I haven't looked back! It's easy to apply and lasts all day... Bonus.

It is retailed at €13.90. 

I feel like I should explain my absence from blogging (once again).For a while I just had no inspiration to blog and I felt like I needed some time where I just focused on me and didn't have to worry about being late posting or not keeping up with the lasted trends & gossip. But now I'm refreshed and I know what way I want to continue, I hope all my readers will join me on this ride.

                                               Until next time babes,
