Winter Shoes | H+M, Doc Martens + Primark.

Hello!

Has everyone had an enjoyable weekend? I've been working away and tidying the house, but I relaxed a bit this evening which has been lovely.

Just wanted to do a quick post today as it's been a few days and I'm working a lot over the coming week. I've been aiming to do more fashion/clothing related posts as it's something I'm really interested in and I have a lot of clothes and shoes etc!
I want to share with you all the shoes I've been wearing the most over the past couple of months. The weather has been pretty gross here as you can imagine or perhaps you've experienced it too! Lots of rain, snow and general coldness. So my footwear has had to be able to cope with all that. Basic requirements include decent grip on the sole, they must be cosy (with room for extra sockage!) and black (as it goes with absolutely everything).
Here are my Top 3!

My newest pair of shoes, I got these about 3 weeks ago from H&M online for £29.99. I was going to post a link to the website but I can't find them on there any more! They are very chunky and 90s, which a lot of people may not like but I love them. Easy to walk in, fantastic grip, easy to get on and off, as well as decently priced!

Hair Care | Haul + Reviews.

I've always been terrible at looking after my hair, I just seem to forget about it and it tends to get neglected. I hope I'm not the only person who does this!? I like to shower or bathe at night and if I wash my hair (I only have to do it roughly once a week, thank goodness!) I tie it up and leave it to dry. No brushing or anything, unless I really have to. That's something I need to invest in, a decent brush!
My hair has a natural wave to it and it's very, very thick so I can leave it and it doesn't look too bad.
I don't tend to brush it all that often, unless it really needs it. One thing I really need to do is get it trimmed as the ends are getting pretty dry. They aren't as split as they usually are though which makes a change! To counteract the dryness I wanted to get a deep conditioner for it and I've always been a fan of Aussie, when I saw there was a deal on their products in Boots I was excited. You could get any 3 items for £10, which is great considering they are around £5 each usually!

I got the 3 Minute Miracle Deep Treatment, Aussome Volume 2in1 Shampoo/Conditioner and their Dual Personality heat protector and texutrising spray. I must say the 3 Minute Miracle really works and is an actual miracle. It's brilliant and smells glorious, like peaches and summertime! That's one of my favourite things about Aussie as a brand, their products always smell amazing. Although I feel that the 2in1 shampoo/conditioner doesn't smell as fantastic as their other things, which is a bit odd and a slight let down. I doubt I'll repurchase.

NYE | OOTD+FOTD

I'm a wee bit late with this posting of this look. This was from New Years Eve, I didn't have big plans for during the day, just did a little bit of shopping in preparation for the little get together we were having at night. So I didn't get very dressed up for the daytime, and laziness and bad time keeping meant I didn't get changed for the evening!

There aren't really any photographs of my outfit as I simply couldn't get any that were remotely flattering. I really need to get my tripod from my mums, or rope Kyle into taking photos (hint hint).

I just went for a navy metallic liner. To do this I used the liner from my Famous palette with the dark blue shade from a Rimmel trio. This is a clear liner that you can use with eye shadow to turn into a liner, which I love! I've never found anything like it since, although saying that I've not looked hard! I tried to look for the palette online but to no avail.

Blusher - MUA Shade 2 
Lips - Elf Matte Lip colour in Natural.
Mascara - Lancome Hypnose Drama (post on this soon).
Foundation - Rimmel Match Perfection Shade 010.
Eyes - Rimmel 698 Modern Blues (I think!)

Mini Primark Haul.

More lip products to talk about today! This time they are from Primark, as the title would suggest. I was pretty intrigued when they started doing beauty products a year or so ago. I use their sensitive 4in1 wipes, they claim to cleanse, tone, moisturise and remove make-up all at once. They do the job, and have never irritated my skin so I can't complain. A while back I bought one of their lip stains and a lip stick. I wanted to try out a different colour from what I was used to, they were both a bubblegum pink shade. The lip stain was much better quality than the lipstick which wasn't very pigmented.

This time I bought two lipsticks and another lip stain in a raspberry pink colour. They have changed their packaging slightly. I must say I'm not really a fan of leopard print so I don't like their lipstick packaging all that much. Who can complain for £1 each!?

The lipsticks aren't very pigmented, as I kind of expected, but they are nice for when I just want a hint of colour. They are very smooth and are easy to apply. So if you like a sheer lip these are for you.
