Asos sale haul + new Nike AF1

Posted on by

Today’s haul is an Asos sale haul (mostly). It includes shoes, clothes, accessories, and make-up. So let’s get started.

The only thing in this haul that I didn’t get on sale are these Nike Air Force 1 Crater Flyknit MOVE TO ZERO sneakers. I’d been wanting them for a while, and at some point I finally decided to get them. I love the colours and the knitted fabric, and they’re very comfy.

The other pair of shoes in this haul I’ve been kind of obsessed with. I mean, how stunning are these green leather boots from Asos Design! I love the colour, the shape, and everything else about these boots, and I’ve worn them a lot.

And now on to a couple of T-shirts. The purple T-shirt with Mickey Mouse on it is from Daisy Street, and the navy one with the basketball playing skeleton T-Rex is from Adidas.

I also purchased two Christmas T-shirts on sale both from Asos Design. It’s always a good idea to get your Christmas clothes early and on sale.

Let’s get in to the accessories. I purchased the matching necklace to the earrings in this haul, because I thought it would be cute to wear them together. I also got a cute pair of flower earrings from Monki.

Then I also picked up a pair of reddish brown sunglasses and some big hair clips from Asos Design.

And last, but not least, make-up. I’ve already talked about the Charlotte Tilbury Hollywood Flawless Filter in my latest 5 favourites post, and I really enjoy this product (mostly). I’ve got the shade 1 Fair. I also picked up the Huda Beauty Glowish Soft Radiance bronzing powder in 1 Light, which is a very pretty bronzer.

The last three make-up items I picked up are the Huda Beauty Easy Bake powder in Sugar Cookie, the NYX Sweet Cheeks Glow blush in Silence Is Golden, and NYX Brow Glue Instant brow styler. I really don’t like the packaging on the Huda Beauty powder, and it has a very strong perfumy scent, so I actually haven’t worn it that much, but I’ve liked the way it looks when I’ve worn it. I love the NYX Sweet Cheeks Matte blush in Silence Is Golden, so I really wanted the glowy version as well. They’re both such great yellow blushers. I think I like the NYX Brow Glue Instant brow styler, but it is very sticky. I don’t reach for it very often, because I pretty much always go for the ABH Brow Freeze.

Asos 20% off haul

I have a small Asos haul to share with you today. I got everything 20% off.

First I picked up this 70’s inspired floral dress from Asos Design. It’s so cute and comfortable.

I loved Bratz dolls growing up, so I thought this T-shirt would be fun to have in my wardrobe. It’s from Daisy Street.

I prefer to wear biker shorts under my skirts and dresses in the summer, so I picked up these cute floral ones from Asos Design.

I love these Mary Janes! They’re my favourite item from this haul, and you’ve already seen me wear them in several outfit posts. They’re from Asos Design.

Lastly, I have a few accessories to share with you as well. Both the white flower ring and lilac headband are from Asos Design, and the Minnie Mouse headband is from Disney. I use the Minnie Mouse headband every day when I do my make-up.

Sephora Favorites advent calender 2021

I got two advent calenders in 2021; the Essence 24 sparkling moments of joy advent calender and the Sephora Favorites advent calender. Two calenders at two very different price points. You can check out the post I did on the Essence calender here, and now let’s talk about what the Sephora one contained.

Days 1-6 contained the following products: Fenty Beauty Diamond Bomb All-Over Diamond Veil in How Many Carats?!, Rare Beauty Lip Soufflé matte lip cream in Fearless, The Ordinary Hyaluronic Acid 2% + B5 (serum), Maroccanoil treatment, Tarte Maneater voluptuous mascara, and Fenty Skin Fat Water pore-refining toner serum. I already owned the Fenty Beauty Diamond Bomb, but it’s a nice product. I’m most excited to try the Rare Beauty lip cream and the Fenty Skin toner serum.

Days 7-12 contained the following products: Good Girl by Carolina Herrera (Eau De Parfum), Benefit Gimme Brow in 3, Erborian Milk & Peel mask, Patchology The Good Fight clear skin mini sheet mask, Huda Beauty Diamond Balm sparkly lip balm in Negligee, and Innisfree Hydrating Sleeping Mask with Green Tea. I used to own the Benefit Gimme Brow so I know I like that. I think the Perfume by Carolina Herrera is beautiful, and it’s smell really good as well.

Days 13-18 contained the following products: Respire natural face wash, Sephora Collection Glossed Vinyl Intense lip lacquer in 06 All-Powerful Red, Too Faced Damn Girl! Mascara, The Original Make Up Eraser, Olaplex Hair Perfector No. 3, and Anastasia Beverly Hills Brow Freeze brow styling wax. You might have noticed how obsessed I am with the ABH Brow Freeze; I use it pretty much every day, so it’s nice to have a back up. I’ve already tried the The Original Make Up Eraser, and I actually thought it removed my make-up very well.

Days 19-25 contained the following products: Merci Handy cleansing spray – Lavender & Eucalyptus, Ren Evercalm gentle cleansing milk, Fresh Rose Deep Hydration face cream, Natasha Denona Baby Biba palette, RMS Beauty Buriti bronzer, Charlotte Tilbury Matte Revolution lipstick in Pillow Talk (original), and Juliette has a gun parfums – Not A Perfume + Carré Y perfume necklace. I’m actually pretty excited about most of these products, especially the Natasha Denona Baby Biba palette and the Charlotte Tilbury Matte Revolution lipstick in Pillow Talk. I’m also curious about the perfume necklace. I’ve never tried anything like that.

I admit that this calender is pricey, but I also think that it contains a nice variety of different types of products including both make-up, skin care, hair care, and fragrances. A handful of the products are full sizes, and I think the “minis” or travel sizes are generally very generous. I might consider getting the Sephora Favorites calender again in 2022.

H&M summer sale haul + jeans

I have another summer haul to share with you today, and there’ll be more to come. This is an H&M sale haul, but I’m also including a pair of jeans which wasn’t on sale.

Let’s just start with the jeans. I love wide leg jeans, and I love red, so I thought a pair of red wide leg jeans would fit very well into my warddrobe. I’ve aldready posted a look with these.

And now on to the summery pieces. I have three dresses to share with you. First off, I purchased this cream coloured floral maxi dress. It’s so flowy and comfortable.

I don’t own a lot of mini dresses, but this cerise/hot pink one was just so cute and great for hot summer days. I didn’t get around to wear it this past summer, but hopefully I will next summer.

This simple navy and white striped midi dress is so me. I love a dress that singes in the waist, and this dress is just so comfortable and easy to wear.

This pieces is not very summery, but I still got it on sale. You might have noticed my love for these fitted roll neck tops. I have them in so many different colours and patterns, and I didn’t have this black, blue, yellow, and white abstract patterned version, so I had to add that to the collection.

I don’t buy a lot of swimwear, because I don’t use it often. However, this blue and white gingham bathing suit was just too cute to pass on. I love that it’s a bit retro looking with the print, the shape, and the belt.

Last but not least, I purchased these beautiful asymmetrical earrings from the Brock Collection in collaboration with H&M. I love statement earrings, and I think these are so pretty.

Collective summer holiday haul

I know this haul is way overdue, but I feel that about most of my hauls these days. Oh well, I still wanted to do a haul including all the things I purchased during my summer holiday.

Let’s begin with a few second hand pieces. I thrifted both of these tops, and I think they’re very cute, but of course also very summery.

I also thrifted this little black shoulder bag; I thought it had a fun shape.

This next bag I didn’t thrift, but I got a great discount on it. It’s from a Danish brand called Silfen, which makes these fun and colourful hand bags. I’m definitely a fan.

I also purchased some second hand jewellery. The necklace is from the same charity shop that I also purchased the black bag from. I don’t like the chain, so I’ll try to find another chain for the pretty pendant. I bought both the red earrings and the silver ring at a flea market. The earrings are actually vintage and made completely out for plastic.

Here’s a closer look at the ring. This ring is made out of a vintage spoon, and I’ve been wearing it almost every day since I bought it.

The day I purchased the Silfen bag, I also purchased a pair of silver hoops from the Danish jewellery designer Pernille Corydon. They were on sale too. The bracelet is also from Pernille Corydon, and I’ve worn that almost every day since I got it as well.

Lastly, I bought two Body Yogurts from The Body Shop. They were also on sale, and I really enjoy this product. The Warm Vanilla scent is from last year’s holiday collection, and I had it last year and loved it. I also thought I would try out the ginger Body Yogurt. I love ginger, so I thought it sounded interesting.

Gina Tricot x Emili Sindlev

I have a cute little haul to share with you today. These are four items I purchased from the Gina Tricot x Emili Sindlev collection, and I love them all.

Let’s start with these show-stopping Marina starfish earrings. I wore these with the last outfit I posted, and here’s a closer look, and I think they’re so fun and so pretty.

The Jennifer necklace is definitely my most worn piece from the collection. It’s such a pretty pearl necklace, and I love the one big pearl on one side of the necklace.

I also picked up the Emili satin scarf, which is right up my alley with colourful design.

And last, but not least, I purchased the green Cara belt. It’s obviously a statement belt, and I actually wore it to a wedding in August, and it looked so good with my dress.

Zalando haul (June)

Today I have a Zalando haul to share with you. It’s a mix of clothes, shoes, accessories, and make-up. I purchased these items in June.

I have this style of skirt from Monki in quite a few colour ways and patterns, but I had to add this cute, floral one to my wardrobe as well. It’s just the perfect summer skirt in my opinion.

I really like this style of vest/tank top, so I purchased this two pack from Monki on sale with an orange and a black one.

Monki makes really cute shoes, and these two pairs of strappy block heel sandals are no exception. I loved wearing both pairs this past summer.

I also purchased another pair of strappy sandals. These are from Mango, and they’re really cute as well.

The last pair of shoes in this haul I featured in my June favourites, and they’re one of my best summer purchases. They’re from Teva, and they are so comfortable, and I’ve worn them so much.

I’d been eyeing these multicoloured rhinestone earrings from Topshop for so long, and when I found them on sale, I had to get them. I’m so glad that I did, because I’ve worn them quite a bit.

In my last haul, I featured the I Heart Revolution x Disney Fairytale Books Ariel/The Little Mermaid collection, and I also mentioned that there would be more Disney make-up in future hauls. This is one of those hauls, because I purchased more I Heart Revolution x Disney Fairytale Books palettes and heart highlighters. First off, we have the Belle/Beauty and the Beast palette and highlighter.

I also purchased the Cinderella palette and highlighter.

And lastly, I purchased the Tiana/The Princess and the Frog palette (the highlighter was too deep for me).

These are the rest of the make-up products. I purchased the Maybelline Fit Me Primer Luminous & Smooth primer, the MAC Studio Fix Sculpt And Shape Contour palette in Light/Medium, the MAC Prep + Prime Transparent finishing powder, and the Pixi On-The-Glow blush in the shade Juicy.

Here’s a closer look at the contour palette. I’ve not been contouring in years, but this palette has gotten me back in to it a little bit. I still don’t contour every day, but I do it sometimes, and I really enjoy using this palette. I really like the setting/finishing powders as well as the contour shades.

Asos haul – shoes, accessories, and make-up

It’s time for another Asos haul. This haul is a mix of shoes, accessories, and make-up.

I’ve purchased two pairs of Converse. These ones are the Chuck Taylor Lift Sunshine sneakers, and I just love the colours. They’re so perfect for ’70s inspired looks.

The other pair that I got are the Run Star Hike pride sneakers. I’ve been wanting a pair of Run Star Hike sneakers, and this rainbow version seemed perfect. They’re so fun and comfortable.

Let’s move on to accessories. I picked up these gold coloured bracelets from Asos’ own brand, because I always seem to miss gold coloured bracelets in my jewellery collection. I’ve worn all of these, and I really like them.

These are the rest of the accessories – all from Asos own brand. My favourites are the lime earrings and the dinosaur key ring (which I’ve been using as a bag charm).

For make-up I’ve got two I Heart Revolution x Disney collections to share with you. The first one is the I Heart Revolution x Disney Fairytale Books palette, heart highlighter, and lipgloss in Ariel/The Little Mermaid.

The palette looks like and opens like a book, and on the left side you get three blushers and three highlighters, and on the right side you get 18 eyeshadows.

And here’s a closer look at the heart highlighter; so pretty.

The second I Heart Revolution x Disney collection that I got is the The Aristocats Marie collection. I picked up the eyeshadow palette and two highlighters.

This is what the palette looks like on the inside. It’s so cute with the little paw prints in the matte eyeshadows.

The two highlighters are called Duchess (a light gold) and Beloved (a light pink). They’re both very pretty. There will be more Disney make-up in upcoming hauls:)

Collective clothing haul: H&M, Zara, Asos, second hand

It’s been a while since the last time I did a clothing haul, so I guess it was about time. This is a collective clothing haul with items from H&M, Zara and Asos, and I also have a few second hand pieces to share with you.

Let’s start with the pieces I purchased from H&M. You’ve already seen the H&M x Lee denim jacket, because I featured it in my 5 favourites post from June. It is still my go to jacket these days. I also purchased the matching jeans. They are described as loose fit mom jeans.

From H&M I also picked up this grey-black oversized T-shirt w. a neon Coca Cola print.

Let’s move on to the Zara pieces now. I purchased another Disney T-shirt dress, because they’re just so cute.

And it was not the only Disney item that I purchased from Zara. I also got this cute Mickey and Pluto T-shirt.

The last few things I bought from Zara were a bucket hat and some letter brooches. You might guess that these letters are significant to me.

In this Asos haul, I featured a pair of pastel patchwork joggers from Daisy street, but they didn’t have the matching sweatshirt at the time. They eventually got the sweatshirt, so I had to purchase, so I would have another matching sweatsuit.

And speaking of matching sweatsuits, in that same haul I featured a New Girl Order x Hello Kitty sweashirt, and now I’ve purchased the matching joggers for that sweatshirt, so I actually have two matching pastel sweatsuits.

*NSYNC is my favourite boyband, so I had to have this T-shirt from Reclaimed Vintage.

The last item I bought from Asos is a pair of sandals. These rhinestone sandals are from Asos’ own brand, and I really like them, however my Tevas have stolen the spotlight when it comes to sandals, so I haven’t worn these as much as I thought I would.

Lastly, I have a few second hand pieces to show you. These are the first pieces I purchased after the country slowly started to open up again. One of the pieces is this dusty blue blazer. The fabric is quite interesting, and I love the embroidery.

I also bought this burgundy leather jacket. I’ve never been a leather jacket kind of person, but there was something I liked about this one.

And last but not least, I found these black, white, and red loafers in a second hand store and thought they were kind of fun. And I’ve been seeing loafers everywhere lately, so I guess they’re in style.

20% off everything Asos haul

I haven’t posted an Asos haul since February, so I thought it was about time to post another one. I got everything in this haul 20% off, which is always nice:)

Let’s start with a couple of sweatshirts. I’m actually not sure if the brand of this sweatshirt is just Disney, but it’s all it says on the label. Anyways, you know how I feel about Disney clothing and this sweatshirt was just so cute with the embroidered Lady, and the colour of it is really unique, and I love that too.

The other sweatshirt I purchased is this oversized pastel dream from New Girl Order x Hello Kitty. As I mentioned here, I’m really liking pastels at the moment, and this sweatshirt is just the cutest. I mean, just look at the back.

I also purchased this pastel piece, which is from Asos’ own brand. Lilac and light yellow is such a pretty colour combo.

I’m still not over sweater vests, and this one from Daisy Street has been on my wishlist for a while. It’s so vibrant and fun.

I have of course also bought a pair of pastel coloured joggers. These are also from Daisy Street, and they combine two of my new found loves – pastels and loungewear.

I’m always excited to find colourful and/or printed tights, and these lilac ones from Asos’ own brand are so cute.

I’ve seen a lot of these scrunchie style bags, and I couldn’t resist getting this purple one from Asos’ own brand, since purple is my favourite colour, and I didn’t have a bag this colour purple.

I’ve been wanting a pair of big ’70s style sunglasses, and these are just what I’d been looking for (they’re from Asos’ own brand).

I’ve added yet another of these types of hair clips to my collection, but it’s lilac (and also from Asos’ own brand). I had too.

The last three pieces in this haul are jewellery. The earrings are from Kingsley Ryan, and they’re very simple and pretty little multicoloured rhinestone earrings. Both the gold coloured dinosaur necklace and the purple ring are from Asos’ own brand. I love dinosaurs, and I didn’t already have a gold coloured dinsaosaur necklace, so that was a no brainer purchase. And those fun, plastic rings are so popular right now, and I thought I would buy one to see if they really are that cute.
