I ventured out into the magical world of Westfield Stratford for a bit of
retail therapy before Valentine’s Day, so I’m sorry about how late this post is
(crap blogger award goes to me)! I was actually extremely hungover and
exhausted after a night with my head inside a wine glass (or six), and decided
that spending money would be the answer to all my woes.
I was right.
Adidas Originals Crop Top | Urban Outfitters | £25
IT IS SO RARE THAT I CAN AFFORD TO EVEN SET FOOT IN AN URBAN OUTFITTERS
STORE THESE DAYS. But, after an extraordinarily unfortunate event involving
toilet bleach and my beloved older Adidas crop top, my wardrobe was definitely
missing something. I’m a sucker for Adidas, and I spotted this beautiful
short-sleeved, fitted crop t-shirt in UO, and I knew I had to get it. I’ve worn
it a few times, but now spring is springing, I’m looking forward to getting it
on more.
Valentine’s Day Card | Urban Outfitters | £4
I was reluctant to post this before V-day just on the off-chance Chris
actually gave a shit and looked at my blog, but this was the Valentine’s card I
got for him. We luuurved Stranger Things last year, and we can’t wait for the
next season. The card says: “On a scale of one to ten, you’re an eleven”, which
is simultaneously romantic and badass. Next year I’m determined to find him a
Walking Dead V-day card. Also, just a side note – my eyes did water at the
price, but whatever, we can’t put a price on luv xoxox
Make Up Revolution Ultra Eye Contour Light & Shade | Superdrug | £8
The. Bloody. Cheek. Of. Makeup. Revolution. Right. Now. I can’t believe
they get away with making such convincing dupes of higher end stuff. This
palette is almost identical to the Kat Von D Light and Shade palette, but only
costs a fraction of the price. The KVD version is also sold out almost
everywhere I look, and so I felt like this was a pretty good investment. It’s
still not been opened, if I’m honest. I mean, I can barely even close my
drawers because I’ve got so many eyeshadow palettes, but its day will come.
Revlon ColourStay Makeup for Oily/Combination Skin in Ivory | Superdrug |
£12.99
This has been my go-to drugstore foundation for aaages now. I discovered
it when I was living in Bristol and ran out of my L’Oreal True Match. After I
realised this was pretty much a dupe for the Estee Lauder foundation, I fell in
love with this. I’m in the shade Ivory, which I think might be the palest
shade, but it’s a good match! It’s also really fab at covering my heinous spots
and red patches, and it’s true to its word about catering for the oily-skinned
gal. This is a repurchase, and it will probably always be on my repurchase
list.
Long Sleeve Choker Top in Grey | Topshop | £19
I’ve wanted a choker top for aaaages but never found one I liked. That was
until I found Topshop’s beautifully fitted, lighter material choker crop top. I
chose the colour grey because every time I come home with a new black crop top,
Chris loses the plot and says I have about 100 versions of the same top (lies
and slander), but now I wish I grabbed a black one too as I can’t find one in
my local store anymore! I might have to order one online before they stop doing
them. I absolutely love this top; it’s very flattering and definitely different to my 100 other crop tops.
In my emotional, hungover state, I also popped into JD Sports for a new
Adidas T-shirt for Chris. I tried to take a picture but he was literally
wearing it for about two weeks after I bought it, so we’ll have to use our
imaginations.
We’re just about moved in to our new place now! It’s still a bit
stressful, and the unpacking seems to be lasting forever, but we’re really
settling in to our new 2-bed home. Once it’s looking like less of a hovel, I’ll
be sure to take some pictures and maybe do a new flat tour for my YouTube
channel!
Lots of love,
