Collective haul – accessories, shoes & clothes (January 2026)

Posted on by

I have a rather large collective haul from January, so I decided to divide it in to two parts. This first part is going to be the accessories, shoes, and clothes.

I picked up three headbands in a Boozt sale. The first two beaded ones are from Becksöndergaard, which is a favourite brand of mine when it comes to headbands. The third headband is from Marimekko, and it’s bigger than what I usually go for, but I really liked the colour combo and the iconic Marimekko flowers, so I thought I would give it a try.

And speaking of Marimekko, I also got this set of pins from the brand. I love a good pin or brooch.

Moving on to shoes, and I’ve got three pairs to show you. These raspberry pink velvet Bae Crocs had been on my mind, since I first saw them, so when I found them on sale at Asos, it was my cue to get them.

I keep seeing ballerina sneakers everywhere, and even though ballerinas were never my type of shoe, I thought I would give the ballerina sneaker trend a go. I opted for this more affordable option from the brand SEQWL, because I quite liked the unique colour combo.

The rest of the items in this haul are from Desigual, which is a brand that I’ve been intrigued by for quite a while, but their pieces are a little expensive. However, they’ve had an insane sale going on lately with a lot of pieces being 60% off, so I made my first two orders from their website. These fun heels were my second order. They’re designed by Tyler McGillivary, and I love the mismatched flowers and the colour of course. I can’t wait to wear these this summer.

This oversized puffer jacket was designed by María Escoté, and it was the most expensive piece I bought, but I’m glad I did, because it’s so good! It’s like a piece of art, and it’s really warm at the same time.

I also purchased this matching newspaper blazer and trousers set. I obviously can’t fit the trousers right now, but hopefully they will fit a some point.

I had to get one of the many Mickey Mouse pieces from Desigual, and I picked the most colourful piece I could find. I love an oversized T-shirt, and I think this will be fun to style.

The last piece I bought in the Desigual sale, you have already seen me wear. I wore this beautiful Desigual x Christian Lacroix dress at my sister in law’s civil wedding, and luckily it had room for my baby bump.

Collective haul (December 2025)

I have a collective accessories, shoes, clothes, and beauty haul to share with you today. I picked up these items back in December. Some of the things were on sale and some of them were not. Let’s begin with accessories.

I got these first pieces of accessories in an Asos sale. The earrings are from the brand True Decadence, the necklace is from ALDO, the chain belt is from My Accessories, and the hair bow is from Easilocks x Asos.

This cute little burgundy sequin handbag is from Asos Design.

I picked up two pairs of stiletto pumps. Is it a little stupid to pick up heels when you can’t wear them for quite a while? Maybe, but I’d been eyeing both of these pairs for a while, so I had to have them. The electric purple ones are from Asos Design and the red floral ones are from H&M.

I have a weakness for fun, oversized T-shirts, so I picked up this pasta one in the Asos sale. It’s from Asos Design, and I wore it here.

I’ve dreamed of this Stine Goya coat since probably spring last year, so when I found it 60% off with an extra 10% off, I had to finally get it. This colour is what dreams are made of, at least my colourful dreams.

I haven’t tried this brand Sundae Body before, but I was intrigued by their Candy Cane Whipped shower foam, since I love anything candy cane scented.

Let’s move on to the make-up I got from Monolith back in December. I had to have the Dede Signature Festive Elegance palette, because it such a stunning Christmas-themed palette.

Another Christmas-themed palette that I picked up was the Glaminatrix Cosmetics Merry Chrissy palette, which is themed around the Australian Christmas.

The last Christmas-themed palette I got was the Gourmande Girls Mostly Merry palette. This is not my favourite colour story, but the packaging is so cute.

The Unearthly Cosmetics Dead Cute collection really is cute, and I had to have the palette and the 4pcs lipstick set. The lipsticks are in the shades (from left to right) Toxic Taffy, Bubble Scream, Vampire Truffle, and Ghost Milk.

The last four products are from the newest limited edition collection from MAC called Metamorphosis. I bought the Face & Eye palette, the Macximal silky matte lipstick in Juiced Raspberry, the Glow Play Tendertalk lip balm in Frolic, and the lip pencil in Spiced Tea. I still love limited edition MAC.

H&M Black Friday + Cyber Monday haul (November/December 2025)

I decided to make my H&M Black Friday haul and Cyber Monday haul into one post, since I didn’t get that many things. There are no clothing items in this haul, only a couple of fragrances, some accessories, and a pair of shoes.

I picked up two fragrances; the Lemon Meringue hair & body mist and the Adventure Seeker eau de toilette. I generally think that H&M makes quite nice fragrances, these two included.

I want to become better at wearing cute cold-weather accessories, so I got some dark red ear muffs and a matching leopard print faux fur collar and fingerless gloves.

I don’t know if I’ll ever stop buying new headbands, but considered how often I wear them, probably not any time soon. I thought the mix of the more classic checkered print paired with the rhinestones was fun and a bit different.

I also got a pair of earrings and two brooches, which are items that I always like to add more of to my jewellery collection.

Lastly, I bought this pair of red pointed toe sling-backs, because I felt like I was missing a pair of simple red (kitten) heels in my shoe collection. I wore them several times during the Christmas season.

Collective Black Friday haul (November 2025)

I have a collective Black Friday haul to share with you today. This haul includes orders from Matas, Magasin, Zalando, Crás, Trollbeads, and Boozt.

These are the items I picked up from Matas. I got 25% off the Clean Classic The Jet Set layering gift set (5 x 5ml) and the Fenty Cheeks Suede powder blush matte in Daiquiri Dip 06, and then I got 40% off the Rimmel Kind & Free mascaras, so I picked up two back-ups in the shade 002 Brown Black.

The next bulk of items was purchased at Magasin, which also had 25% off most things. I got three blush products; the Huda Beauty Blush Filter blurring blushlighters palette in Baby Pink, the Rare Beauty Soft Pinch matte bouncy blush in Worth, and the Rare Beauty Soft Pinch liquid blush in Spirited (mini).

From MAC, I got the Luxe Luck Dazzleshadow liquid eyeshadow in Viperactive, which was from last year’s Lunar New Year collection, and I also picked up one of the new Dazzleshadow liquid eyeshadows in the shade Crumbled Diamonds. Both of these are very pretty.

And lastly from Magasin, I bought the Charlotte Tilbury Airbrush Flawless mini setting spray kit and the Kosas Revealer concealer in 01 N.

Let’s move on to the things I got from Zalando. I got these two make-up items, which are the last make-up items of this haul. I’d used up my L’Oréal Paris True Match Nude plumping tinted serum in 0,5-2 Very Light, so I got a new one, because it’s one of my favourite foundations/skin tints, and I also got a third shade of the NABLA Close-Up Blurring powder blushes, and it’s in the shade Satisfaction.

I picked up two pairs of Crocs in the Zalando BF sale. I got the other pair of M&M’s collab Crocs; they’re just so fun and colourful. I also got another pair of lined Christmas-themed Crocs, which I wore several times during December.

I made a small order from Crás, which you might know is one of my favourite clothing brands. I’ve had my eye on the shiny dress for a while, and it was pretty heavily discounted so I decided to finally get it, even though I can’t wear it at the moment. I’ve also been wanting one of their satin coats, and I thought this pink floral one was really pretty and perfect for spring. The tote bag was a gift with purchase.

Trollbeads usually has some good deals around Black Friday, so I added these glass beads and silver beads to my ever-growing collection.

These last few items were purchased in the Boozt BF sale. I got another headband from Becksöndergaard, because I think they make beautiful, good quality headbands.

I also picked up two hair & body mists from L’atelier Parfum. I got Green Crush and Exquise Tentation. Green Crush is my favourite so far. It’s so fresh and green-smelling, which is exactly what I was hoping it would be.

Collective haul – non Black Friday (November 2025)

I have a rather large collective haul to share with you today. These are the items I purchased back in November that weren’t part of any Black Friday sales. However, quite a few of these items were purchased during Singles’ Day sales. Let’s begin with some indie palettes though.

I hadn’t picked up the Nomad Cosmetics Pacific Northwest intense color & chrome palette at launch. I was waiting for another Nomad Cosmetics launch, and when they launched their Christkindlmarkt intense color & chrome palette, I picked up both palettes. I also got a free gift with the Christkindlmarkt palette. Both palettes are beautiful, and I generally really enjoy Nomad Cosmetics eyeshadows.

I haven’t been interested in a Natasha Denona midi palette in a while, because they’ve had very neutral colour stories. However, there was something about the Bloom palette that I liked, but I didn’t want to pay full price for it, so I waited for the Sephora Singles’ Day sale to purchase it.

These are the other items I got in the Sephora Singles’ Day sale; the Natasha Denona Hy-Glam concealer in N1, a back-up of the Huda Beauty #FAUXFILTER Luminous Matte liquid concealer in 1.3G Marshmallow (my favourite concealer), and a Sephora Collection Rouge Is Not My Name no transfer matte lipstick in 07 Pinpoint.

I’m always excited about a new MAC launch, so I picked up two MAC Dazzlelips crayons in the shades Cosmic Plum and Lunar Violet. I got them 25% off.

Here are some things I got in the Zalando Singles’ Day sale. I picked up another shade of the MAC Colour Excess gel pencil eyeliners, and it’s called Blueberry Milk. I also bought another shade of the NABLA Close-Up Blurring powder blush, and it’s called Lucky Rose. Lastly, I got the The Library of Fragrance Pistachio Ice Cream Eau de Cologne, because I was curious about the brand and the scent, but it’s too artificial and cheap-smelling for my taste.

I made an order from Niche-Beauty, because they had a 25% off sale. I’ve been wanting to try Lisa Eldridge lip products for a long time, so I picked up the The Holiday Ribbon Kit, which included the True Velvet lip colour in Velvet Ribbon and the Enhance and Define lip pencil in Ribbon; such a pretty classic red shade. I also got the Lisa Eldridge Insanely Satuated lip colour in New Wave, which is a beautiful berry purple shade. Lastly from Niche-Beauty, I picked up the PHLUR Vanilla Skin body mist, which is a lovely scent.

Let’s move on to accessories, clothes, and shoes. I got these pearl jewellery and bow hair clip in a H&M sale. I’ve worn the pearl necklace quite often lately.

I also got this faux fur hat in the H&M sale.

I found this boucle style jacket at a charity second hand store, and I actually wore it yesterday.

I couldn’t wear this Christmas top from Next this past Christmas due to my baby bump, but I’m excited to wear it next Christmas.

I love a coloured tight, and I found these purple ones from the brand DIM on sale.

I knew I had to have these M&M’s Crocs from the moment I laid eyes on them. I love the green colour, the glitter, and the M&M Jibbitz, and I’m also quite fond of the style called Bae. And that’s the end of the haul, and what a piece to end with.

Asos sale haul (August 2025)

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.
