The Summer shoe edit

At this time of year I always look in my wardrobe and think I need to get me some summer shoes, granted I never actually need them but honestly I cant resist. This year I definitely lacked some black sandals in my wardrobe. I have a lot of tan and multi coloured but when the weather is so unpredictable black can come in so handy! (Yes i went overboard on black shoes) 

First up is this bargain Primark pair for £8 you really cant go wrong. I love the pattern and the stud design around the edges. They honest are so spongy and comfortable and surprisingly amazing quality. 

 I've had my eye on this Topshop pair for a while now priced at £29 I put off buying them for ages but I got a voucher so I thought it was about time I picked them up. They will be perfect for holidays and go with so many different outfits.

 I picked this Missguided pair up in their £3 sale so they were an absolute bargain! I thought they would be great for work I love the silver detailing and the pointed toe. Definitely worth the £3!

  I have loved this style of shoe for ages now but never picked them up! When I saw them in Primark for £10 I had to pick them up! They had them in white, black and blue too. I love the grey colour as they'll go with so many of my summer outfits!

 I love the twist on a traditional pair of espadrilles with them being slide on. I picked these up from Linzi for £20 these are great or British summer when the weather isnt always so summer whilst they can still keep your feet cool at the same time.

Lastly is another £3 Missguided bargain these are gold with little ankle straps and I personally think they are so cute! These would be great for work or even with a 'nice top and jeans' kinda outfit they will go with lots of outfits too.

So there you have my new summer shoe collection which I'm quite pleased with! Thanks for reading!

Kiel's Midnight Recovery Concentrate Oil

Kiehl's Midnight Recovery Concentrate Oil has be one of the most talked about products on youtube and blogs its been raved about for so long and after struggling to combat my eczema flaky dry skin I caved and thought it was about time I tried it. 

This Oil claims to give you fresher, firmer and younger looking skin by morning. As my skin is so so dry I've been using 3/4 drops each night although I would say for normal skin only 2 drops would be needed. The next morning I found my skin was a lot softer and the redness from my eczema had dramatically reduced, of course it didn't get rid of my eczema as thats not what its for but it did really calm my skin down which doesn't happen so easily. This isn't heavily scented but smells so spa and fresh like. 

Although £49 for 50ml is quite pricy a little goes a long way and the bottle will last some time, for me it's 100% worth it for my skin and I couldn't recommend it anymore. 

My Pure, Rosehip Oil

Its that time of the month again when I review two products from My Pure who if you don't know by now sell a wide variety of natural skincare, haircare and makeup and other bits and bobs to. 

Trilogy Rosehip Oil- Over the years I have heard many good things about Reship Oil and the difference it can have on your skin. I have eczema prone skin which is very dry and dehydrated so this sounded perfect for me . This claims to reduce scars by 41%, stretch marks by 43% and fine lines and wrinkles by 23% while hydrating your skin at the same time. I'm currently using it on a scar I have on my face but haven't been using it long enough yet to see if it makes a real difference as that will take time. 

Overall This has made my skin really soft and a lot less flakey obviously it doesn't stop the eczema from appearing but it keeps it at bay and calms and hydrates the skin (I've been using 3 drops every night for the past week). For me this is definitely worth it. 

Secondly this month I decided to try something I had been eying up on the My Pure website for some time now, which is the Munio Candlea in the scent Jupiter and Limonioum candle - which in essence is Lemongrass and Mint scented. I have to say the scent is a lot stronger than I expected but it smells amazing it leaves a scent in the room without even burning it. The lemongrass is definitely  more prominent out of the two, I think it would make the perfect fresh summer candle, plus how pretty is that packaging! My Pure also has three other Munio Candlea candles which are currently half price for £6.50 which is a bargain.

Haul Haul Haul

I purchased these notebooks and diary quite a while ago now from Homesense who have the range of notebooks! I love anything with quotes on and couldn't resist picking up a few although I didn't need any!

I love love love these Primark pjs I think they were around £9 and they really remind me on Victoria Secret. Cant complain for £9!

Primark £3- The smell of sea salt is one of my favourites so I was very happy to see that Primark had added this scent to their collection, perfect for summer time! I noticed they had a lot of new scents in their last time I popped in.

Soap and Glory Brow Archery- This has been my saviour recently with having dry skin and Eczema on my face especially round my eye area I lost a lot of my eyebrows (yes i literally was left with half an eyebrow) This has been perfect for giving me natural looking eyebrow and the colour match is perfect. 

Baby lips lip balm- Admittedly I do already have 3 of these but for £1 I couldn't leave it there its also lovely and minty to!

Primark £2.50- Im honestly fairly light obsessed and was in need of some plain simples ones and for £2.50 you can't really complain! 

Class Oslen Ramekins - I could honestly walk round this shop all day! I though these were cute for little snacks ( and blog photos of course) and for £1 each I couldn't leave them. 

Jack Wills £2- I mean £2 really I though this vest top would be really cute with a pair of shorts in summer.

I mean how pretty is this I love the snakeskin effect on this bag! Everytime I make a trip to Cheshire Oaks I always end up picking up a Fiorelli bag this was only £29 and I'm in love with it! 

Victoria Secret Amber Romance body spray-  I have been wanting a VS spray for soo long but with no stores that close I've never had the chance to. I went into the new beauty store in Cheshire Oaks and was so happy to see them there and they were only £10! 

The body Shop cleansing oil- I've heard great things about this with having dry skin I prefer using an oil based cleanser so I thought it was about time I checked it out. 

Revlon colour stay foundation- I have been using Nars most days but wanted a cheaper alternative for days when I'm not out for long so I thought I'd give this a try and honestly Ive been picking it up over my Nars foundation most days now!

Primark Lace Up Shoes £8- I bought a pair of lace up flats a couple of months ago from Kurt Geiger in black which are almost identical to these but a lot more expensive, I love the kaki colour I think these would be the perfect edition to any spring wardrobe. 

Fuji Beach Yankee Candle- I picked this up in an outlet store for £5! Such a bargain and I don't know why I only picked up one?! 

I recently picked these up from TK Maxx for £14.99 which for Steve Madden sunglasses I can't complain. 

Lastly I recently ordered these copper string lights from Asos, I don't currently have copper in my bedroom but I when I do I think these will make a lovely edition.

I hope you enjoyed reading what I've been buying recently, I think i've done enough shopping for a while now!
