Mixed Haul -Clothing, Makeup, Cards and Bathbombs!

Today I hit the shops and did a bit of damage to the old purse.....oops! So naturally I thought that I'd share with the blog what I bought.  If you enjoy seeing what I bought please leave me a comment below and follow my blog!

Gingerbread Snaps Beauty xx

*Paperchase*

 

Since beginning my project life scrapbook, I've seen that a lot of other scrapbookers ( yeah that's not a word) have made use of the postcards Paperchase sell to stick next to a picture and make their scrapbook look a bit more arty.  So I popped in today and bought these Postcards which I think will be cute in the scrapbook 



*Lush*

 

I don't know anyone who can possibly go into the kingdom of Lush and not pick up a bathbomb or two!  I picked up the Twilight bath bomb which smells of calming lavender and has a malty kinda scent coming through it as well.  Perfect to pop in a bath before bed for a guaranteed good nights sleep.  I also bought this small Christmas bathbomb which was half price and although I don't know the name it is basically the scent of Christmas with a cinnamon, orange scent.

Onto the makeup and both these products I bought in Superdrug because I'm really into the whole bronzed eyes and pink lips these days.  It'll be a perfect makeup look for when we get into the Spring.  The Maybelline Colour Tattoo in the shade on in on bronze is the perfect buttery long lasting eyeshadow formula without being too glittery.  The Revlon Lip Butter in the shade   is a beautiful baby pink colour that is nourishing on the lips and lighter than a lipstick which makes it perfect for everyday use.



 

 

*Clothing*

 

Since I'm starting back at uni next week I want clothes that are comfortable and cosy for sitting in cold lecture halls.  I headed into my holy grail highstreet shop H&M and bought this black sweater which I think is perfect to throw on with jeans for an everyday casual look





 

On the theme of cosy, this large oversized knitted jumper is the ultimate jumper that basically feels as though you have cut a hole in your duvet and fired it on over your head.  Super soft and again perfect for uni!

Throughout the winter I've been living in my parka's, but for coming into the Spring in a few months time I found this light weight kaki jacket  complete with a hood.  I bought this jacket in the winter sale in New Look for only £20 which I think is a bargain for a jacket.  I know I'll get a lot of wear out of it.

Finally, but by no means least these blue acid wash rinsed high waisted jeans from H&M.  Since buying a pair of grey washed high waisted jeans in September, I find that wearing regular waisted jeans is not the same.  High waisted are much comfier and skinny jeans I feel make my legs feel

much warmer especially in the winter.
