Shopping Haul #1

Ok lovely people so over the last couple of weeks I've been getting summer goodies and decided to do a haul post :) 

I did not buy all of this in one whack so don't freak out too much :) I don't have pictures every item but I do for most so you can use your imagination or go google searching to find the product :) 

So first I bought a bikini by the brand Topanga from City Beach, Australian surfwear and clothing shop. I don't have a picture of it and I'm not comfortable putting a picture of myself wearing it online. So basically its navy blue with white daisy printed all over it and it has frills all the way around the bottoms and across the front of the top. 

Then I bought a skirt, also out of city beach, by a brand called Mooloola, the skirt is called the strawberry swing skirt. I got it on sale and I think it is really cute :) It is pictured below and I'm actually wearing it out tonight for the first time to a post exam fish and chip beach gathering with my friends :) 

Next I bought some shorts out of another surfwear shop, you can tell I'm a beach girl can't you :) called Waves. The shorts I bought were from a brand called Rusty. They are denim but look a little but more casual and not as harsh as normal denim shorts. I'd probably just wear a cute simple singlet with it with bathers underneath or with just a crop top or something :) 

Next I bought a loose singlety, blouse top out of a high end store called Forever New, it was quite expensive and I don't normally buy clothes out of there because of the price. But I fell in love with this. It's quite a simple blue blouse and you could dress it up if you wanted to or keep it quite simple. I love the colour blue and its basically my staple colour, plus I love floaty girly things so I couldn't really say no :) 

These next couple of things I haven't taken any pictures of, sorry. I bought a pair of sandals out of a shop called Valleygirl, they are basic flat sandals with some diamonte` style glitzy bits on them, quite simple and casual, but can dress up an outfit if you need them to. Then I bought a set of rings, mainly pinky rings and mid finger rings cause they are very popular the moment. Then I bought a set of belts one in navy blue and one in white. I bought the smallest sizes of them, and I still had to punch more holes in them to make them fit. Out of Big W I got a couple of simple singlets and a pair of comfy beach shorts just because you need a pair in summer just to wear around cause it basically what you spend the whole day in :) I also got some new make brushes by the brand boe, quite a cheap brand only ever used their nail polishes before but I think they'll do an ok job of getting my make up on my face haha. 

I then got a bottle of the maybelline dream pure bb cream. I actually was sent some free sample sachets of this by maybelline and I fell in love with it. So I went a bought a tube of it. It's really light, doesn't make your skin too shiny so you only need a little powder and it has great coverage :) 

 

Next I bought the garnier BB cream roll on. I orignally had a tube of this, but wasn't liking it to cover my whole face. So mum took that one and I bought the roll on one which I have been using as a concealer and I prefer it so much more to the actual cream. Its not as heavy and oily in the roll on I think. I would reccomend that over the actually bottle of BB cream its self. 

Then I went a store here called Sportsgirl. I bought 3 beauty products. The first a peachy coloured lipstick called spring fling, its really natural looking and has such a pretty colour perfect for summer when all the brighter pink and peach colours are coming in. Next I bought the liquid eye liner. I'm normally quite scared of eye liner but this one is really simple and really fine so I thought I'd give it a try. Then I got the Sportsgirl Big Blink mascara. I don't normally use their mascaras but I thought I'd try this one, so far I think its ok, but it kinda made some of my lashes clump together which I don't really like so I'm trying to use it sparingly and only in little bits to stop them clumping too much. 

That is all my lovelies. I hope you enjoyed seeing this. I bound to buy plently more I still need to get a jumpsuit and a dress of two before my summer wardrobe is complete. 

Yours Truly
