I have a rather large Asos sale haul to share with you today. It includes shoes, a bunch of accessories, and a few make-up bits. Let’s begin with the shoes.

I picked up two pairs of shoes. The purple Ramsey creepers are my first ever pair of Dr. Martens shoes. I’ve had my eye on these ones for quite a while, because I used to love a creeper and purple is my favourite colour. The brown sandals are from a brand called London Rebel.

I got a pair of black houndstooth-patterned tights from Lindex.

I picked up these two belts both from Asos Design. I would like to add belts to my looks more often.

Shoe clips have been a more recent discovery for me, and I like the idea of decorating my shoes. These two pairs are both from Asos Design.

I’m always on the hunt for more golden rings, so I got these three from Asos Design. The first two came in a set.

I love a pair of statement earrings, so I picked up these five pairs. The top three pairs are from Asos Design, and the bottom two pairs are from Reclaimed Vintage and Topshop respectively.

These are the three (or four to be exact) bracelets I bought. The golden bangle is from the brand South Beach. The orange bangle and the two golden bracelets are from Asos Design.

I got one hair accessory, which is this pretty burgundy hair clip from Asos Design. The brooch is also from Asos Design.

As you know, I like brooches, so I also picked up all of these pretty golden ones from Asos Design.

Lastly, I got these three make-up products and a brush. I got the e.l.f Cosmetics Stain & Tint blending brush, the e.l.f Cosmetics Sheer for It Blush Tinit in Left on Red, the e.l.f Cosmetics Halo Glow skin tint SPF 50 in 1 Fair Neutral, and a back-up of the Huda Beauty #FAUXFILTER Luminous Matte liquid concealer (shade: 1.3G Marshmellow).

Collective haul – shoes and accessories (June/July 2025)

I’ve decided to put my collective hauls from June and July together and then divide them into three parts; shoes and accessories, clothes, and beauty. Today’s haul is all about shoes and accessories.

I’ve purchased two more pairs of Nike Cortez sneakers, and for once, I got them right at launch instead of waiting for them to go on sale. I’ve always wanted a pair of red Cortez, so that’s why I didn’t hesitate to pick them up. And how cool are the blue denim ones?! I just had to have those as well (they came with another set of shoelaces, which are the brown ones you see in the picture).

I know which pair of shoes I’m going to wear on Halloween this year. These The Nightmare Before Christmas classic Crocs.

Now, let’s move on to some heels. These grey satin square toe mules are from H&M, and I got them on sale.

These next two pairs are from Asos Design, and I also got these on sale.

And these last two pairs of heels are from Zara, which I haven’t purchased from for a while, but they had a nice sale, so I picked up some items including some accessories and clothes as well.

Let’s move on to accessories, the first accessory being related to shoes, because I got these orchid shoe clips from Asos Design. What a fun accessory, right?

I also picked up a necklace and three pairs of earrings in the Asos sale. Sadly, the pearl flower earrings broke, when I wanted to wear them the other day, so I had to get rid of them.

These are the accessories I got in the Zara sale, and I don’t know what it is with flower earrings, but these ones broke right away as well.

Lastly, I picked up this beaded headband from the brand Becksöndergaard. I also got this item on sale.

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.

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.

Collective haul (March 2025)

I have a collective haul to share with you today. It includes a few clothing pieces and accessories and of course some beauty products.

I was eyeing this coat from the brand Stella Nova for so long, but it was quite expensive, and I didn’t want to pay full price for it. But back in March I found it 50% off, which I saw as a sign for me to get it, and I’m so glad I did. I can’t wait to wear it again in autumn when the weather gets a bit colder again.

I love a simple tank top, and H&M usually makes them in a lot of different colours. I picked up this olive green one on sale.

I found these navy pinstripe trousers in a sample sale, so I got them for a good price. They’re from a brand called Co Couture.

This little lime green bag is from the brand True Decadence, and I purchased it to wear to a wedding earlier this summer.

I also wore this orchid hair clip at that wedding. It’s from the brand Sui Ava.

Moving on to make-up and other beauty bits. I’ve mentioned before how much I love the Huda Beauty Blush Filters, so I got another shade, Bubblegum, on sale.

I’d already purchased a few shades of the Fenty Beauty Cheeks Suede shimmer blushes, but I’d been wanting the matte shade in Lolly Poppy 03, and it’s stunning.

I picked up these last bits from Sephora. I got a back-up/new of the Natasha Denona Macro Tech eye pencil in Fushi, a Fenty Beauty Gloss Bomb Stix shimmer in Flamingo Fling 05, the Rare Beauty Selena’s Essential eye duo including the All Of The Above weightless eyeshadow stick and a mini Perfect Strokes universal volumizing mascara, and lastly the Ole Henriksen Hygge Hotel body care duo including a Stay in Touch restorative hand créme 75ml and a Firmly Yours toning dry body oil 30 ml.

Collective haul – incl. Cyber Monday sale (December 2024)

I have a rather large collective haul to share with you today. I purchased these items back in December last year, and some of the items I purchased in Cyber Monday sales. This haul includes a bit of everything. I’ll group the items by where I got them from.

Let’s begin with what I picked up in the H&M Cyber Monday sale. I got this beautiful burgundy dress with rhinestones all over it. I wore it on Christmas Eve.

I also got a pair of straight leg blue jeans from H&M, because I thought they might come in handy at some point.

You know I’ve been loving a flower pin, so I got these three (the two black ones and the leopard print one) from H&M. I also got a white flower scrunchie.

The last thing a picked up in the H&M Cyber Monday sale is this pair of big, heart-shaped pearl earrings, and they’re really cute.

Let’s move on the the things I got from Zalando. I thought this Elf tie from the brand OppoSuits was too fun not to buy.

I also bought two pairs of shoes from Zalando. I got the ALDO x Wicked Glinda inspired sling-backs, and they’re so pretty. I also got another pair of Teva sandals, but this time with a platform and in one of my favourite colour combos, red and pink.

I also purchased my first ever products from Moira, which was a new brand to Zalando at the time. This is the I’m Falling For You palette. I’m wearing it on my eyes here.

For eyes I also wanted to try out the Starshow shadow pot in Eureka and the Diamond Daze liquid shadow in 01 Airglow.

And for cheeks, I got the Loveheat cream blush in I Adore Yo and the Dreamlight highlighter in Dreamlight.

Now let’s talk about some bits I got from Beauty Bay (not sale). I got the Trixie Cosmetics Gel lip liner and Buttercream lipstick in Fashionably Late, because I wanted to try this new line of lip liners and lipstick shades.

I don’t pick up that much from Jeffree Star Cosmetics anymore, but he hadn’t released new shades of the Velour liquid lipsticks in a while, so I bought the shades RedRum Remix (red w. shimmer), Star Knockout (dark purple), and Mountain View (metallic brown). I’d also been wanting to try the Liquid Frost highlighter and chose the shade Frostitute.

Lastly, I’ll show you some jewellery I got as Christmas presents and a pair of tights I also got for Christmas. I’ve had this Trollbeads Cookie Joy ring on my wishlist for so long, so I was very happy to receive it for Christmas last year.

I also got these five beads for my bracelet, bangle, and/or ring, and they’re all so pretty.

I have a lot of Pandora x Disney jewellery too and how cute are these Mickey Mouse earrings?!

From Pandora x Disney I also received this Lilo & Stitch charm. So cute!

And lastly, I got a pair of fuchsia pink tights from Sneaky Fox.

Collective Black Friday haul (November 2024)

I have a collective Black Friday haul to share with you today. The haul includes a mix of everything from beauty to clothes, shoes, and accessories.

From Jolie Beauty I picked up the Spellbound palette, the Moonchild highlighter palette, and the multichrome lipgloss in Ethereal. I got 15% off all products. I’m wearing all three products here, and I think the look turned out so fun.

Let’s move on to the other random make-up bits, I purchased during the Black Friday sales. I got a back-up of my favourite concealer, the Huda Beauty #FAUXFILTER Luminous Matte liquid concealer (shade: 1.3G Marshmellow), and a back-up of one of my favourite foundations/skin tints, the Rare Beauty Positive Light tinted moisturizer (shade: 14W). I also wanted to try out the Huda Beauty Easy Blur natural airbrush foundation, and I got the shade 110N Angel Food, which I think is sadly a little to light for me.

From Makeup By Mario I bought the Soft Sculpt shaping stick in Light, the Mario Soft Pop blush stick in Watermelon, and the Soft Pop plumping blush veil in Perfect Pink, because I’ve been wanting to try out more products from the brand.

The last make-up products I purchased were the Benefit Cosmetics Plushtint moisturizing matte lip tint in 20 Red Velvet, the Haus Labs PhD Hybrid lip glaze plumping lip gloss in Persimmon, and a back-up of the MAC Extended Play Gigablack Lash, which I love to use on my lower lashes.

From Asos I picked up the e.l.f. Cosmetics Squeeze Me More lip balm duo in Mango and Watermelon and a big, red, tartan scrunchie from the brand DesignB London.

You know I love colourful tights, so I got a blue pair and a green pair from Sneaky Fox.

I don’t wear a lot of black, but I thought this beaded zebra print bag form Topshop was really cute.

I bought two pairs of shoes in the Asos sale; the floral, sheer sling-backs are from River Island and the black mules with the flowers are from Asos Design.

Lastly, I picked up two pretty dresses. The orange checkered one is from the brand Stella Nova, and the floral one is by Danish designer Stine Goya. I think I might wear the floral one for a wedding next month.

Lyko haul (November 2024)

I have a rather large Lyko haul to share with you today. The haul mainly consists of a bunch of products from two limited edition collection from Catrice plus a few random products as well.

Let’s begin with the Catrice Mystic Forest collection. I purchased all three nail lacquers, two metallic liquid eyeshadow, the two cream blushes, and the two lipsticks.

The nail lacquers are in the shades C01 Enchanting Lights, C02 Falling Leaves, and C03 Woodland Magic, and they’re super pretty darker metallic or glittery shades.

I picked up the metallic liquid eyeshadows in C02 Falling Leaves and C03 Woodland Magic. I like that the metallic liquid eyeshadows and the nail lacquers came in corresponding shades.

The cream blushes are in the shades 010 Purple Touch and 020 Red Allure, and they might look really scary and dark in the pans, but they looked really nice on the cheeks.

Catrice tends to release mostly pinks, reds, and berries, when it comes to lipsticks, so I love that this collection included a black lipstick called C01 Deepest Secret and a deep red called C02 Dark Seduction.

Catrice also released a really pretty holiday collection in 2024 called Festive Treasures. I picked up the velvet headband, the two hydrating shine lipsticks, two of the Blush Drops, the multi-use palette, and one of the metallic eye pencils.

Here’s a closer look a the headband. It’s very festive indeed.

I really like the velvet packaging on the hydrating shine lipsticks, which came in more classic Catrice lipstick shades; a pink called C01 Merry Kissmas! and a berry called C02 Kissberry.

The Blush Drops came in three shades, but I just got two of them; C01 Merry Mauve! and C03 Chestnuts Roasting. I’ve already decluttered C01 Merry Mauve!, because I thought it looked a little patchy on the skin, and the packaging broke as well. The packaging has broken a little on the C03 Chestnuts Roasting shade as well, but I really like the colour, so I’ll keep it a little longer and see, if I get use out of it. If not, I’ll declutter that one too.

I was quite impressed by the multi-use palette in C01 All I Want Is Velvet. I wore most of the eyeshadows and both cream cheek products here.

This metallic eye pencil in C01 Mistlegreen is a very nice dark metallic green shade perfect for holiday make-up looks.

The last three products I picked up was the Catrice Pure Volume Magic Brown mascara in 010 Burgundy Brown, which I really like, the Rimmel Nail Care Nail Nurse 7-in-1, and the Lancôme C.E. Skin Transforming highlighter in 04 Halo Glow. I had recently bought another shade of the Lancôme C.E. Skin Transforming highlighter, and I really liked this white gold shade as well.

I have an Asos haul to share with you today. The haul includes clothes and accessories, and I purchased most of the items on sale. Let’s begin with clothes.

I picked up two oversized T-shirts from Asos Design. The first one has a bubblegum machine on the back, and the other one, as you can see, is leopard print.

And speaking of leopard print, I also got a leopard print tank top from Stradivarius.

The last piece of clothing I picked up was this wrap style denim skirt from COLLUSION, which I’ve worn quite a bit.

I purchased a bunch of spooky/Halloween inspired pieces of jewellery. The spider earrings and the spider brooch weren’t on sale, but I had to have those.

These are the other jewellery I picked up. The big pink beaded earrings are from Asos Design, the flower rhinestone earrings are from True Decadence, and the bow brooch is from Reclaimed Vintage.

The last thing I got was this big red sequin bow hair clip from Pieces, and you know I love me a big bow hair clip.

I have a beauty and accessories haul to share with you today. Everything was on sale apart from the first lip liner and lipstick.

When I saw that Rare Beauty had launched a red shade in the Kind Words matte lip liner and lipstick, I had to pick them up. The shade is called Devoted, and it’s super pretty.

I’d been wanting to try the Sephora Collection About That Shine lacquer shine and sheer shine lipsticks, so I got the lacquer shine lipstick in the shade 09 Volcanic Lava and two of the sheer shine lipsticks in the shades 10 Radiant Flame and 16 Electric Glitter. Both formulas are very lovely.

The last make-up product, which I also really wanted to try, is the Too Faced Chocolate Soleil Melting Bronzing & Contour Stick in Chocolate Mousse. It’s a very creamy, blendable bronzer that looks beautiful on the skin, and it smells divine, like orange flavoured chocolate.

Let’s move on to the accessories. I got this floral tote bag from Pieces that can hold a lot of stuff.

From Pieces I also got these big, asymmetrical earrings.

And speaking of earrings, I also picked up these three pairs from Mango.

I also got this pearl necklace from Pieces. You know I love me some pearls.

I also love brooches, and I was so excited to find these pretty, beaded butterfly ones from Becksöndergaard. I actually wore the pink one yesterday, and I’m wearing both the blue one and the green one today.

Last up, we have hair accessories. I bought this headband and these two hair clips from Pieces.

I also bought a navy blue flower hair clip, a pink flower hair tie, and a big pink scrunchie from Becksöndergaard. I’ve really enjoyed wearing all of these accessories.
