Fashion Haul !!

Hey guys,

So here in Australia we are moving into SPRING!! Although the weather isn't really showing it. It has been quite cold for the past few weeks with rain, wind and thunder!! I managed to do a little bit of shopping and i picked up a couple of shorts for when summer comes around.

If you are interested keep reading !!

Glassons 

So this first pair is from Glassons and retails for $34.99, its printed with white and navy blue patterns. It has pockets at the front and made with 100% cotton. The fit is really nice and is kinda high waisted with small pleats at the front. 

Cotton On

This pair is from Cotton On and retails for $29.95. I got these shorts as it reminds me of sailor shorts. It comes with a belt which you can remove and has some button detailing on the side. These sit really nice on the waist and is rolled up at the bottom.

Cotton On

This last pair is also from Cotton On and retails for  $34.95. Out of all the shorts these are my favourite. I have always loved denim shorts and these are cool because the have embellished jewels attached on one side. 


So this was my mini haul of shorts, hope you guys like it and also got an inside to what I like to wear. Please leave a comment if you would like to see more fashion posts/hauls. 

Until next time

Haul time !!

Hello guys, 

Seems like a long time since my last post huh? I have been so busy with Uni and work! But with all that aside I'd like to share a mini haul of things that I have collected over the past 2 weeks or so. It's a mixture of things that I love and have been recommended by friends. So I hope you enjoy and please feel free to leave a comment or question :)

The Face Shop Sunscreen

Over the past few weeks I have been looking for a new face sunscreen because spring and summer are on its way to Australia. My friends loves The Face Shop and recommended that I try this one. When I apply it to my face its very smooth and light, it has a mild sunscreen scent and also helps to whiten the face. This can be worn alone or under a very light face powder, however I prefer to just wear it alone as I don't feel the need to wear makeup over it. 

Maybelline - Gel Eyeliner 

This product has been a favourite of mine for the past few years, they had a sale on this so I picked up a backup as I am still currently using one. This gives a perfect line with and angled brush. The consistency is very smooth and is very pigmented. I love using this with an angled brush and making a small winged line at the end. 

Maybelline - Full and Soft

This is another favourite of mine, I have been using this ever since I started wearing makeup and I can't seem to find another favourite. Don't get me wrong, I have tried other mascaras but I always seem to come back to this one for some reason. I guess you can say it does what it sys it does, it give you full and soft looking lashes while also looking very natural. 

Sally Hansen - Lustre Shine
005 Plume

This is last product that I have gotten and I have to say I think I'm in love. This is such a nice colour for the spring time. It has a 2 tone colour to it and changes colour depending on what light you see it in. With just 2 coats the colour pay off is awesome and after 3 days so far I don't see any chipping. I have never used Sally Hansen before and I must say I'm very impressed with it. 

So there you have it guys, a small haul of things and a mini review of them. I have more things to show but I didn't want this post to be so long. If you would like a review of the things shown let me know and I'll post one up for you. 


Until next time

Shoes Shoes SHOESSS!!!

Hey guys,

So in my last post I said that I had trouble uploading photos on my blog, well I did some researching and hopefully I can put what I learnt to good use. I'm hoping and praying that my photos will stay up. 

Anyway over the last few months I have been on the biggest shoe shopping spree, and I have accumulated some shoes that I would like to share with you all. Some of the shoes I have worn and there are some that I haven't worn just yet. Take a look below to see some of the shoes that I have bought. 

Novo Jackaroo Boots

Out of all the shoes, this one was my latest purchase from Novo. Over the years I have been the biggest fan of Novo shoes, they are comfortable and affordable. I have worn these so much already and I have only had them for about 2 weeks. I am a size 7 and these fit perfectly, they are not heavy and they do not constrict my feet. For a more snuggly fit I wear thin socks, and for more of a fashion statement I also wear floral socks that peak at the top. They look good weather paired with shorts, jeans or even skirts.

Daily Look - Double Platform Heel 

About a month and a half ago I put in an order of shoes and clothes from Daily Look with a friend. These are one of the shoes I ordered and they are amazingly high! The heels is 5.75 inches high and trust me they give you the extra height. I have not yet worn them out yet but I am looking forward to taking them out and seeing how long I can last with them on. Over the past week or so I have worn them around the house to stretch them a little, and my feet have become accustomed to the shape of the shoe. 

Daily Look - Colour Block Ombre Pumps

These were the other shoes I ordered from Daily Look. They have a beautiful ombre colour change which is beautiful with any skin tone. I found the different cut to the shoe very interesting, it gives the illusion that your legs are longer by extending the length of your foot. With a 4.25 inch heel this shoe is perfect for everyday wear weather it be to the office or to run errands. I have worn these heels out before and they look amazing with white jeans as they act as a statement piece to your feet.

Tony Bianco Heels

Ok so these are the last pair of shoes that I have purchased, and they are from Tony Bianco. I'm not too sure what they are called because I bought them from a sale outlet warehouse. They are a very nice nude coloured heel, with straps and a buckle to the side. I usually don't buy shoes that are peep toe, however when I tried these on I knew I had to buy them. They were so comfortable and very easy to walk in. I can't wait to wear them in the summer time, they are perfect for day or night wear and also appropriate for any occasion be it a wedding, birthday or just a night out.

So those were the shoes that I have recently bought, I really hoped you all enjoyed reading about them and got some inspiration of your own. I may do another post about shoes in a few months time when I have accumulated more shoes. In the meantime keep an eye out for some beauty and fashion posts that will be coming up soon.

Until next time

P.s. I really hope the photos come up this time.

Photo issues

Hey guys,

So after I posted my last post I thought it turned out pretty good. However when I went back to it the next day I noticed that the picture that I had uploaded just vanished. I tried and tried to get it back but failed... kinda bummed out that it won't be coming back.

I apologise greatly because you guys can't see the picture, however I do hope that the mini reviews of the products were enough for you to get a picture of what the product is actually about.

I will try and continue to put up pictures, I actually have a small fashion haul that I would like to upload but I'm not sure if the pictures will come up properly. If anyone is able to help me in any way so that the pictures won't disappear it would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks again guys

Until next time

Benefit Skincare Sample Pack Review

Hey guys

So long time no post, I guess I have been busy with Uni and work. Ahh..... the life of a student, what fun it is (not haha).

Anyway so the other week I went to Myer to do some shopping, apart from just getting a few pieces for winter and the upcoming summer I managed to drop by the Benefit counter for a little look at what was new. I picked up one of their skin care sample packs for $25 which I though was a huge bargain. The pack came with a small sample of each of their skincare products and have lasted for over 2 weeks for me.

Benefit skincare sample pack

In this pack you get:

• The Foamingly Clean Face Wash - This wash was quite good, I enjoyed using this product as it left my skin feeling squeaky clean and quite bright afterwards. It had a very pleasant scent to it, I can't describe the smell very well, but to me it smelt like a very floral perfume. Overall I really enjoyed using this product and would purchase the full size product. 

• The Moisture Prep Toning Lotion - At the Benefit counter the lady who served me said that it would replace me normal toner and I would use it by rubbing a small amount into my skin after cleansing. This product was quite runny and when applied to the skin was very sticky even after drying. I didn't quite enjoy this toner as my face was very uncomfortable after the application, however it did have a nice smell to it just like the cleanser. 

• The Total Moisture Facial Cream - This is the larger tub at the top. My skin is quite oily and the lady at Benefit said that I could use this product at night as an extra moisturiser as this cream is designed for people with dry skin. Although I haven't used this product as much I do find that during the colder nights it does help with the extra boost of hydration for my skin. 

• The It's Potent Eye Cream - This is the smaller tub at the bottom. This is one of my favourite eye creams, I have used this many times because I do have the full size product. I have been using this product for many months before every day and night and was excited to see it in this sample pack. I defiantly will be repurchasing this product again when I finish my tub. It leaves the under eye area feeling bright and awake in the mornings. 

• The Triple Performing Facial Emulsion - The lady at the Benefit counter told me that this facial cream was designed for people with more oilier skin types. I am on the fence about this product, when first applied to my skin it was quite sticky and a little greasy, however given an hour or so it looks quite nice and there is no more oil on my face. I'm not too sure if I would buy this product again as there are other facial creams that work better for my skin. 

• Finally we have The Refined Finish Facial Polish - This product was amazing! It exfoliated my skin very well with just a small amount. It had a great scent to it and the small beads in the product was not too harsh on the face. When rinsed off it left my face feeling brighter than what it was and just fresh. I would defiantly buy the full size product. 

Overall this was a very good trial size to test the products out and see if it was worth buying the full sized products. I quite enjoyed this pack and the samples were quite generous, I used the pack for a good 2 weeks and there is till product left over. You don't need all that much on your face and when finished your left with a nice smelling face. 

Not only can this be used as a trial pack but if you are familiar with the skin care line this pack is very good for travel and would pass airport security easily. It also came with a small clear pouch which I didn't need, but other out there may use it to store makeup or other knick knacks. 

To wrap things up I give this pack a 8/10 and would recommend it to anyone who would like to try out Benefit's skincare line. 

Hope you all enjoy the rest of your week and tune in again soon for another post. 

Until next time

Technology troubles

Hey guys,

Jen again, so I spent today trying to figure out how this blogger site works and after a good 3 hours I ended up at the same spot that I started. I cannot for the life of me figure out how to enhance or edit my page. I'm not all that great with technology and this for me is quite a challenge.

I would like to add photos or have tabs at the top of the blog page but until I can figure how to edit it my page will look the same for at least the next few weeks. However if anyone is able to suggest how to edit I would appreciate any help I can get. I feel like such a noob when it comes to technology.

When did technology ever get so difficult to figure out? I'm only still young (not that old yet :) ) but technology seems to be getting so complicated day by day. Does anyone feel the same way?

Anyway, hope everyone has been well

Until next time
Love Jen xx

New beginnings

Hey guys,

It's Jenny here, this is my first attempt at blogging. I'm not really sure why I have started a blog, maybe it's out of boredom or maybe I felt like I needed a change in life. Whatever the reason though I'm glad that it has brought me here.

Now I know that a lot of people blog about lots of different things from makeup and fashion to daily life events and the world around them. To be honest I'm not sure what I want to blog about, maybe a mixture of everything or whatever comes to mind. However whatever I plan to blog about I hope that it it informative and somehow reaches out to people.

I'm not sure how many people will read this or continue to follow this blog, but hopefully I am able to enjoy this experience.

Until next time..
Love Jen xx
