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.

Zara + H&M sale haul (January 2026)

I have a collective Zara and H&M haul to share with you today. Everything was on sale except for the last pieces from the e.l.f. x H&M collection.

It’s always a good idea to buy Christmas jumpers on sale after Christmas, so I picked up this cute Home Alone jumper from Zara.

I picked up these four items from the Harry Lambert for Zara x Disney collection. The T-shirt is from the men’s section, but I thought it was really cute, and I liked the orange with the light blue. I love a sweater vest, so I picked up both the Mickey Mouse one and the Minnie Mouse one. Love the colour combos on these as well. And then I got one of the key rings, which is now living on my work backpack.

The last item I got in the Zara sale was this pair of golden mustard slingback heels with big bows on the front.

Let’s move on to the things I picked up from H&M, and let’s begin with coats, because I bought three; a long faux fur leopard print coat, a shorter bomber style leopard print coat with a faux fur collar, and a khaki green coat with a built in scarf. I love to have options, when it comes to outerwear.

These are the four tops I got from H&M. Can you tell that I’m into olive green and khaki at the moment?

I bought two pairs of jeans in the H&M sale. The first pair is for after I’ve given birth, and they’re a pair of flared jeans with a built in belt. The other pair is another pair of straight leg maternity jeans.

Let’s move on to accessories and shoes. I picked up four scarves. Is that a bit excessive? Maybe, but I hate not having scarves that go with all of my different coats, so now I have options.

I also got some white fluffy ear muffs, a pair of corn earrings, and an eye cream spatula and massager set.

And then I bought one pair of shoes in the H&M sale, which is this pair of faux fur leopard print boots. They’re very cute and comfy.

Lastly, I picked up the hand bag and the three perfumes from the e.l.f. x H&M collab. e.l.f. Cosmetics is one of my favourite make-up brands, so I thought this was a fun collab.

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.

Collective haul – the rest (October 2025)

I have my other collective haul from October to share with you today. This one includes clothes, shoes, and accessories.

Let’s begin with the two Christmas clothing pieces I purchased this year. The sweater vest is from VRS (a supermarket brand), and I bought it in a bigger size, so I could fit my growing bump in there. The grey jumper is actually a second hand find, and I think it’s really cute.

Moving on to some more second hand pieces. I got these three jackets; a patterned cropped denim jacket, a slightly slouchy checkered jacket, and a fun and colourful blazer. My mum actually got me the colourful blazer.

These are the other four tops that I found second hand. The oversized red cardigan is so nice, and I’ve also worn it this holiday season. And I have a weakness for second hand/vintage patterned shirts, and I think both the grey one and the yellow one are so fun, and I’m excited to style them up. I have an orange top in the same style and from the same brand as the dark purple one, and I think they really fun pieces. I love the texture, the shine, and the beading.

You have seen me wear the red floral skirt a couple of times during this past month, and when I bought it, I knew that it would be great for Christmas parties/get-togethers. The red dress was given to me by an acquaintance, and I’m excited to wear it once I’m not pregnant anymore.

I’ve got two pairs of shoes to share with you. How could I pass on the Mickey and Friends Crocs? They were quite expensive on some websites, but I did manage to find them on sale. And I like a bit of a western-inspired shoe, and I just really liked these denim mules from Raid.

Lastly, I picked up these four pieces of jewellery. The flower brooch is a charity brooch for cancer that is released in a slightly different variation each year in Denmark. I think mine is broken though, which is sad, because I only got to wear it once. The blue pearl necklace, the pearl bracelet, and the Christmas tree brooch are all second hand pieces.

5 favourites – November

November has come to an end, and what a busy month it was. We moved into our new house last weekend, and I always forget how crazy it is to move. We also went to our second trimester scan, and everything was great with baby, so we’re very grateful for that. December has never come around this quickly before, and I don’t feel quite ready for it, which is very unlike me. As you might know, I’m a very Christmassy person. I love the Christmas season, but due to the move, I haven’t been able to fully decorate yet, but I did get to decorate the Christmas tree with my family today, so I’m very excited about that. Anyways, before I dive head first into my favourite month of the year, let’s talk about some of my favourite things from the month of November.

Caged Crocs (colour: Grapeberry): You know I love Crocs of all kinds, and ever since I first saw the Caged version, I knew I had to have a pair. These are probably the chunkiest Crocs I own, but they’re really comfy and really cool, if you ask me.

Essence Soft Touch eyeshadow (shade: 01 The One): I always have a single matte cream coloured eyeshadow in my collection that I use all the time, and Essence makes great cream coloured single eyeshadows.

NABLA Close-Up blurring powder blushes (shades: Endorphin + Lucky Rose): I usually prefer a satin or glowy blush, but this is one of the best matte blush formulas, I’ve tried. The red shade is my favourite, and I’ve already worn it many times (hence the dirty packaging), but the warm pink shade is beautiful too.

PHLUR Heavy Cream body mist: I really enjoy all the body mists I purchased from PHLUR, but my favourite and most used one so far is the Heavy Cream one. It smells like dessert.

The Cinnamon Bun Book Store – Laurie Gilmore (book): I didn’t have much time to read in November due to our move, but I read the second book in the Dream Harbour series, and I enjoyed getting to know more of the characters better.

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 – the rest (August 2025)

This haul consists of the other items I purchased back in August; make-up, clothes, accessories, and shoes. It’s mostly make-up though, so let’s begin there.

I don’t buy products from R.E.M. Beauty that often, but I was intrigued by their Fembot products, so I got the eyeshadow singlet, the Eclipse glow stick, and the On Your Collar plumping gloss. The shade is beautiful, but I’m not in love with any of these products to be honest.

I haven’t purchased a mini palette from Natasha Denona in a while, but I liked the look of the Mini Gloom palette. I wore it here.

These two blush formulas had been on my wishlist for a while, and I’m glad to have added both to my collection, because they’re beautiful blushes. The first one is the Ilia Soft Focus blurring blush in Sensation, and the second one is the Rare Beauty Soft Pinch matte bouncy blush in Grateful.

I’ve been wanting to try both of these blush formulas as well, and both are fun and colourful. The NYX Fat Cheeks blush in 8 Blueberry Burst is a purple liquid blush, and the fwee Lip & Cheek Blurry Pudding Pot in D-Day is a red mousse cream blush.

The last blush I picked up is the Morphe Cheek Thrills multi-finish face trio in Cabana Club. Another red blush, I know, but red is my favourite blush colour.

I’ve already featured both of these products in 5 favourites posts, so I obviously enjoy them. It’s the Maybelline Fit Me BB Nude cream SPF 50 in 10, and the Fenty Beauty Bright Fix Instant Brightening + Blurring powder in Lavender 01.

I have one piece of clothing, one accessory, and one pair of shoes to share with you. The piece of clothing is this red sweater vest from H&M, which I think will be very versatile.

The accessory or accessories I got is this set of brooches from Marimekko. Aren’t they cute?

And I might have saved the best for last. I’ve been wanting a pair of Caged Crocs ever since I first saw them, so when they came to Zalando in this grapeberry colour, I picked them up immediately, and I love them!
