school supplies 1 - pencil case

I was planning on uploading this on another day, and keeping my Wednesday and Saturday posts just as fashion and beauty. But i had nothing else planned to post today. So sorry that it is not a fashion and beauty post!

Its that time where lots of people are beginning to go back to school, or even some have already.So i thought i would show you all what supplies i keep in my pencil case. Although its not to do with beauty and fashion. I wanted to share it with you.

So a little warning this blog post might be a bit long, ill keep it as short as i can.

Colored top black pens.

I picked up these pens thinking they were coloured because of the top of them, but it turns out there not. So there are 5 black pens. With colours yellow,orange, red, green and blue at the top.

- Poundland.

BIC - Tipp-Ex

Some schools don't allow tipp-ex but mine does. So i picked up the Shake and Squeeze correction pen in a 2 pack.

- Tesco: Cant remember the price.

OXFORD - Campus Notebook.

Everyone needs a notebook for notes, so i got this one which has really decent lined paper. As well as at the front it has room for your name etc just in case it gets lost and room for you to write in your own timetable.

- Tesco: £2

Mechanical Pencils.

I picked up two packs of these as i get through them so quick. They have an eraser top and soft rubber grip at the bottom.

- PoundLand: £1 for one pack.

Colouring Pencils

Every now and again you might need to do some colouring, so i just got the Tesco value small pencils. As i just think they are small so will fit in to your pencil case, and have the main colours you might need.

- Tesco:Cant remember the price.

HELIX - Ruler.

Everyone needs a ruler, so i just picked up the helix, open and click one in blue.

- Tesco - £1

BIC - Crystal Medium Mixed Pens

These are my favorite pens and i have been using them for a while now, but just needed a top up for school. This pack has 4 blues,4 blacks,2 reds and 2 greens.

- Tesco: £1.50

GOCREATE - Jumbo Felt Tip Pens.

I got 12 felt tip pens, in all the main colours you might need. 

- Tesco: Cant remember the price.

Rubbers
I got some cheap two pack of rubbers.
- Tesco:£50p

I hope you enjoyed this blog post. Look out for my next post soon on Saturday, or even if your lucky a random mid week post before!

Make-up Collection and Storage

I was wondering about what to post today, and thought i might as well show you a bit of where i store my make-up. 

 ill just give you a run through of all of my storage etc. As well as where i got everything from and what i store in them.

Plastic Draws
In the top of my plastic draws i have all of my  beauty blender/creams/eye make-up/deodorant bits and pieces in there. 
My first draw i place all of my pencil eyeliners/liquid eyeliners and some eyebrow pencils.
In the second and last draw i have my concealers, my MUA pressed powder as well as some clarins samples which im trying out at the moment. 
From Homebase. 

Clear plastic container.
So in here i keep my MUA Bronzer, MUA Blusher and my two sleek pallets which are a eyebrow pallet as well as a contour pallet.
This plastic container, is just like the one at the end but smaller.
You can purchase these from any craft store or even maybe Wilkinson's. 

Black and white storage tub.
As you can see from this its a round medium size tub, with a flowery swirly pattern on.
In here i just keep all of my mascaras. Some examples of makes i have are: MUA,Maybelline london etc.
Im not sure where this container is from.

Pink Plastic Container.
In here i keep my makeup brushes, i don't have much brushes so they perfectly fit in here.
Again im not sure where this is from.
But im sure you can pick one of these up from poundland, or even a gardening store of some sort.

Mirror.
My mirror is two sided with one side zoom, and the other not. You can buy these from lots of places.
Mine is from Homebase.

Clear plastic container.
In here i just keep my foundations and some pressed powders. 2 Examples of what i have: rimmel london wake me up x2, collection 2000.
As i said this one is just bigger than the one i keep my sleek pallets in.
So as again, any craft store should sell these.

Fairy Lights.
My fairy lights are just plain stars, and look really pretty when its beginning to get dark.
Not sure where these are from. (could pick some up from homebase or wilkinsons)

Vintage Flowers Mat.
I brought some fabric, to make some bunting for my room and had some left so just decided to put it here for my make-up collection. 

And just at the end there i have my favorite make-up remover wipes, which are just from primark in a twin pack for just a pound!  

I would just like to say that im not trying to show of in any shape of form, i just thought you all would like to see it and get some ideas too.
Thankyou for reading again,

Maybelline New York Haul.

Today i had a little of a browse around some shops, and ended up buying a few items. 
- 

Finally 'baby lips' have come to the uk, which made me very happy.
So i had a look today in Tesco and there they where.
I Picked up two as it was two for £5. 
I have got the 'hydration' (on right) and the Pink Punch (on the left).

I have already tried both of them, because i couldn't wait, there both so creamy and go on nice and smooth on your lips. The hydration one smells like vanilla, and the pink punch i would describe it as a candy floss smell, like as if you were at the fair smell. 

-

Now here i got a bargain. Now tesco normally have a 'clearance' of make-up area, so i had a quick look and spotted this. Its the maybelline 'One by one volume Express Mascara'. Now just about everyone loves there mascaras but they are pricey and i saw this one reduced to £1.99!! Now it hadn't been opened, the packet wasn't damaged at all so there was nothing wrong with it, i think it must of been a older style. But anyway i love this one, i think i might be loving it a bit more than my falsies mascara by maybelline. 

Sorry that it was only a little haul, and you may have noticed that im posting today not yesterday, as i did start writing it yesterday but began to feel tired and have a headache so i never finished it. so sorry! But normally i will be posting every Wednesday and Saturday. As well as the odd posts ever now and again.

Thankyou for reading

August Wishlist.

I have decided to start something new on my blog, which is every month i will post a fashion wishlist.

Most of you should know what a wishlist is but if you don't its basically you make a list of things you would like, or are planning to buy.

I have picked two items from topshop as well as a extra top for my wishlist this month and i thought i would share them all to you.

These two items are from topshop.

1. These high wasted JONI MOTO jeans are really in fashion at the moment, and a lot of people seem to have these. I love how topshop have brought out all different colours for these jeans, my favorite which are the are the vintage style (which are the ones in the photo). As well as that these jeans would really work with a crop top.

2. I have been loving bomber jackets for a while now, but never found one that i 100% loved. I think most of them are expensive for what they are, but i found this one for only £15 from £49.99. Now that's what i call a bargain. I really like this one because its got a pattern in the middle and back, but its bold around the sleeve area. This jacket is really good for just a throw on jacket, and would go with just about everything.

3. This wont be to everyone's taste (obviously not if your not a fan of vampire weekend). But i love this top, as you can just chuck it on just with some leggings and your all ready to go!

I have looked around and the only place you can seem to buy this is the vampire weekend shop. 

This month i decided just to stick with three items to add to my wishlist. I tag all of the fashion and beauty bloggers out there to all show me your months wishlist.

If you do decided to do a wishlist or have already done one, please feel free to leave your link below and ill love to have a look.

Thank you for reading in till Wednesday.

Bia for now:')

Mini MUA Haul

I recently brought some new MUA products, and thought i would show you all.

1. The first thing i picked up was the 'cover and conceal' concealer. This is probably now one of my favorite concealers i own. Its really light to the skin not making it feel thick at all, and gives a glowing finish. I picked this up in the colour 'fair'. Although in nearly all of MUA's products i find that i am in 'fair', once i tried this i noticed that it was more lighter. But more lighter means better for under eye brightening. In all i love this, and will deferentially be repurchasing!     

2. I also brought the 'eXtreme Curl Mascara'. I use this when i want my lashes to be a bit more natural, and not so long. I find that it does do what it says. I normally put on my maybelline london 'Falsies Mascara' and then add some of this on top just to shape my lashes a bit more. I have this in 'black,brown'.

3. Im a big lover for MUA's eyeshadows, so i decided to pick up two more. I got 'Shade 11 - Pearl' (left one) and 'Shade 19 - matt' (Right one). Both of these two eye-shadows together create the perfect smokey eye make-up look. As usual these are super pigmented. As well as super cheap if your a beginner in make-up!  

In all i love MUA. I think you should all have a look at there different products, and i can almost promise you, you wont be disappointed!

Thankyou for reading again!

A Catch Up

As you may have noticed i haven't blogged for a while now, i have been busy going on holiday etc and really haven't had time to sit down and write a blog post. As well as that for a fact i have missed it alot.

As some of you may know school is coming up soon so i have now decided to set days which i will blog, for then instead of doing random days, you will know which days to look out for a blog post as-well.

I will post on two days (Wednesdays and Saturdays). Although there will be a few odd posts every now and again, they are the two days to differently expect a post from me. 

Although because i have not posted for a while, i will be doing a extra blog post today as well as this one. Instead of waiting till Saturday for a actual post from me!

Thought i would let you all know whats happening:).
