Collective haul – clothes, shoes, and accessories (May 2025)

I have a collective clothes, shoes, and accessories haul to share with you today. I purchased all of these items back in May.

I only purchased four pieces of clothing. These three are from H&M, and I got them in a 20% off deal. I’ve worn them all three together, and that look will actually be tomorrow’s outfit post.

The last piece of clothing I bought was this second hand skirt. So pretty.

I’ve got five pairs of shoes to share with you, and let’s begin with the two pairs of heels I picked up. The orange and pink sandals are from Marco Tozzi, and the red ones are from Tamaris; two brands that I’ve purchased from before and that I really like.

It was time to add another pair of Nike Cortez sneakers to my ever-growing collection. I actually ordered three different pairs, but ended up only keeping these ones. I really like this colour combo.

The last two pairs of shoes I got were these two pairs of Crocs. I really wanted a pair of the Marimekko collab Crocs, and these ones are actually the kids’ ones, but they came in my size, and I love the print and colours. I also love the lime green colour of the chunky pair (it’s the style called Bae)!

Let’s move on to accessories. I picked up this golden ring and these floral earrings on sale at Asos, and they’re both from Asos Design.

I got these three pieces on sale from H&M, and I think they’re really pretty.

The next bunch of pieces in this haul are from the Danish website Black Colour. I love a pearl necklace, so I got a “double-stranded” one and a red one.

I also love a flower brooch, and Black Colour usually have some good ones, like this dark green one.

And speaking of flowers, I also got a big mint green flower hair clip. I also bought another fun colourful hair clip. I just love a hair accessory.

This is a mirror keyhanger/bag charm (yes, there’s a mirror inside) that is now living on my everyday bag.

I also got this brown tie. I love adding more ties to my collection.

And speaking of ties, I picked up these four ties at a second hand charity shop, and I paid next to nothing for them. I love a second hand/vintage tie. They have the best prints!

Lastly, I purchased this red second hand waist belt. I wasn’t sure about it, but it was so affordable, so I thought I would give a try, and as it turns out, I’ve already worn it many times. It’s just such a nice addition to many outfits.

Dressed in dinosaurs

Here’s what I wore Tuesday July 29. My dad and I went to the cinema to watch Jurassic World Rebirth, and as I’ve mentioned before, I sometimes like to dress up according to the theme of the film I’m going to watch, so I wore a Jurassic Park T-shirt and dinosaur jewellery.

Colourpop Disney Tangled and more haul (April 2025)

I have a Colourpop haul to share with you today. It mainly consists of the Disney Tangled collection, but I also picked up a few other things.

I picked up the entire Disney Tangled collection, because Tangled is one of my favourite Disney films. My daughter has watched it several times lately, which makes me very happy!

The Best Day Ever palette has really pretty packaging, and the colour story is very Tangled, however, this is not the best eyeshadow quality that Colourpop has done. I created this look with it.

The Dewy liquid highlighters in Mother Gothel and I See the Light are my favourite products from this collection. These highlighters are so pretty, and I’ve used both shades several times.

I’m not the biggest lipgloss person, but I do like the Ultra Glossy Lips from Colourpop. The Tangled collection included three shades; Rapunzel, Flynn Ryder, and Pascal.

The product I was the least interested in from this collection was the Glitterally Obsessed glitter body gel in Floating Lights. It’s really pretty, but these glitter gel products tend to crease on my eyelids.

The accessories in the Tangled collection are so cute! I love the Pascal hair clip, and I’ve actually worn it several times. The little foldable hair brush is cute too.

The other items I bought this time around were three of the new shimmery weightless liquid blushes. I chose the shades Sweet Treat, I Love It, and City Walk, and I love these shades and the formula.

Lastly, I got a back-up of the Colourpop Pretty Fresh tinted foundation balm in the shade Fair 1. I’ve mentioned before how much I like this product.

Rosy neutrals and red

Here’s the make-up I wore with this outfit. It’s not often that I wear a rosy neutral eye look, but I think this look turned out really pretty. And I had almost forgotten how much I love the Natasha Denona I Need A Rouge lip crayon and lip styletto in the shade Gigi; it’s such a good red lip colour!

(Base: primer – e.l.f. Cosmetics Liquid Poreless Putty primer, foundation – Milk Makeup Hydro Grip gel tint (shade: 2), concealers – Smashbox x Becca Under Eye Brightening Corrector in Fair/Light + Danessa Myricks Beauty Yummy Skin Lift & Flex concealer (shade 2), powders – Laura Mercier Translucent Loose Setting Powder Tone Up in Rose + Glamlite Translucent Bake and Set powder, freckles – Nabla Freckle Maker.
