H&M sale haul (July 2024)

Posted on December 16, 2024 by Mucha-Lucha

I have a H&M sale haul to share with you today. Since I purchased these items back in July, many of the things are quite summery.

I picked up three rather summery dresses, however, I actually wore the blue slip dress with this winter look. I wore the white floral dress on my birthday in August, and I think it’s very cute. I’m not sure about the last slip dress though. Might not be my style.

I really like all four of these tops; they’re good staples.

I don’t wear a lot of blue denim these days, but I thought these parachute style baggy ones were fun and a bit different.

I picked up one bag, this yellowy green straw one. I thought it would be a nice bag for summer.

I also got two hats; another big straw hat (I have more than one already) and a crochet beret.

You know I love my hair accessories, and I added another bow hair clip and another headband to my collection.

I also bought these two pairs of fun, dangly earrings.

The last two items are not from H&M’s own brand, but from partner brands. I got this pair of silver glitter sling backs from & Other Stories.

And lastly, I picked up the Sigma Beauty Enchanted eyeshadow palette, which has been on my wishlist for quite a while. It’s a very pretty neutral palette with a twist.

Here’s the make-up I wore with this outfit. I woke up with a sore throat and a cold that day, and even though I’m wearing a full face of make-up in these pictures, and still think you can see that I wasn’t feeling well. It took me almost a week to get well, and my cold isn’t gone yet.

Christmas clothing and accessories haul 2024

Posted on December 8, 2024 by Mucha-Lucha

I usually do a Christmas clothing and accessories haul every year, and some years it’s bigger than others. This year it’s not the biggest Christmas Christmas clothing and accessories haul I’ve ever posted, but it’s a pretty decent one.

I actually purchased a pair of Christmas shoes this year. When I saw these Mickey Mouse Xmas Crocs, I knew I wanted them, but they were a little expensive, so I waited till they went on sale, and then I bought them. They’re just so festive, and they’re lined, so they’re really warm too.

Let’s move on to the clothes. I purchased this red jumper with penguins on it at a supermarket called Coop 365 or 365discount.

Then I bought this jumper, cardigan, and sweater vest from the supermarket brand VRS (purchased at Bilka), which is one of my go-to places for shopping Christmas clothes.

I decided to include this The Nightmare Before Christmas T-shirt from Asos Design in this haul, since Jack Skellington is wearing his santa outfit on the back of the T-shirt, and Zero is holding a candy cane in this mouth on the front.

I also got some black tights with red bows from another supermarket called Netto, and I got some new Christmassy socks from H&M.

Lastly, I picked up some jewellery from Flying Tiger; some golden bow earrings with red bells, some asymmetrical snow man earrings, and a golden Christmas tree brooch.

Monki sale haul + 20% extra off (July 2024)

Posted on December 4, 2024 by Mucha-Lucha

I have a Monki sale haul to share with you today. It’s all clothes, but a mix of dresses, tops, and bottoms. Let’s begin with dresses.

I picked up these four dresses; two purple ones and two pink ones. I’ve worn the indigo button up dress and the pink one with the heart print, and I really like both. The other two are more fitted, which is usually not my thing when it comes to dresses, but I thought I would give them a go.

This kind of mesh top is usually not my thing either, but I think it’ll look nice over the matching rose printed slip dress.

I’ve worn both of these green shirts, and I really like both. The floral long sleeve shirt is sheer, but not too sheer, and it’s a great layering piece.

I have quite a few T-shirts from Monki, and I’ve added another two to my wardrobe.

I already had the blazer that goes with these trousers, so I had to complete the suit.

Lastly, I got another pair of capri trousers, which were all the rage this past summer. I do think these leopard print ones are really fun though.

Different colours every once in a while
