Collective haul (September 2024)

Posted on by

I have a collective haul to share with you today. It includes clothes, accessories, shoes, and make-up.

The only piece of clothing that I picked up (other than a couple of pairs of tights) was this snake print blazer from H&M that I got on sale. Even though I don’t wear a lot of neutral clothes, I do like animal print, because I think most animal prints look great paired with colour.

My obsession with big flower brooches/pins continues. These two from H&M comes with a tie, so they can be worn around the neck or as a belt as well.

I used to love berets and I hadn’t bought a new one in a while, but I just loved this green colour. It’s from Sui Ava, and I got it on sale.

I also still love coloured tights, and Calzedonia is still one of my favourite brands when it comes to tights, so I was very ecited to see these new colours.

I have two pairs of purple shoes to show you. These boots are from the brand Alma en Pena, and I got them on sale from Zalando. How pretty is that heel?!

And it probably doesn’t come as a surprise that I bought a pair of purple Nike Cortez sneakers. Ever since I first saw that a purple pair of Cortez sneakers would be coming, I knew I had to have them.

Now let’s move on to a few make-up bits. Cosmic Brushes (or Cosmic Beauty) is one of my favourite brands when it comes to eyeshadow palettes, and the Undergrowth palette just has the most stunning murky, grungy green colour story.

Lastly, I purchased some new MAC lip products. I picked up one of the new Glow Play Tendertalk lip balms in the shade Vibe. I have three of the original Glow Play lip balms, but I never really got into them, but this new one I love. I don’t if the formula is different or maybe it’s just the colour, but I love this lilac tinted lip balm; it’s really comfortable, and the colour is so pretty. I also bought three of the newly formulated Macximal sleek satin lipsticks. I got the shades Call It Cozy, Pink Peppermint, and Tilted Denim. I’ve always liked the satin lipstick finish from MAC, and these new ones are lovely. The colours are fun too.

Asos 25% off haul (late August 2024)

I have an Asos sale haul to share with you today. If I remember correctly, everything was 25% off.

The only piece of clothing in this haul is this pair of tomato print shorts from Pieces. I’ve already got the matching top, so now I have the whole set.

The only piece of jewellery in this haul is this ring from Asos Design. It looks really pretty, but it’s actually quite uncomfortable to wear.

I bought two pairs of black Crocs with big flower Jibbitz. It’s unlike me to buy a lot of black, but I just loved the flower Jibbitz, and I actually think both pairs are really cute.

Lastly, I picked up five beauty products. I got the e.l.f. Cosmetics Power Grip primer + 4% Niacinamide, which I love and use a lot. I also picked up two back-ups from e.l.f. Cosmetics; the Halo Glow setting powder in Light, which I started using a little while ago after I used up my old one, and the Squeeze Me lip balm in Vanilla Frosting, which is a lovely lip balm. From e.l.f Skin I bought the Holy Hydration! eye cream, which I’m excited to try, and I also purchased another shade of the Huda Beauty Liquid Blush Filters. It’s in the shade Watermelon Pop, and it’s beautiful.

Zalando haul – mainly sale (August 2024)

I have a Zalando haul to share with you today. Most of the items in this haul were on sale.

I picked up two tulle skirts. The pink one is from Vila and the cream one with navy polka dots is from Only. I bought the pink one because it reminded me of Carrie Bradshaw. I haven’t worn it yet though. I have worn the cream one with the polka dots twice, and I love both outfits I created with it.

I purchased three pairs of shoes. This first pair is from Marco Tozzi, and I just love the iridescent rainbow sparkles and the fact that they remind a bit of ballroom dance shoes.

I contemplated buying these ramen heels from Koi Footwear for so long, but I eventually caved and got them. I love ramen, and these shoes are so unique and fun.

I also had these shoes and bag from the ALDO Barbie collaboration in my Zalando wishlist for so long, and I finally bought them, when they went on sale. I can’t wait to style these for summer.

For jewellery I picked up a brooch from Pieces, a ring from ALDO, and the cutest T-Rex earrings from Coach.

Let’s move on to beauty. I really enjoy Real Techniques brushes, so I got this Solar Power brush set on sale.

I got the Revlon Colorstay Suede Ink lipstick in In Charge (009) and the L’Oréal True Match radiant serum concealer in 1N. Sadly, I’ve already decluttered both of these products. The lipstick wasn’t anything special, and the concealer was stinging my undereye area, which obviously wasn’t pleasant.

I really like the NYX Buttermelt blushes, and I think these two shades called 01 My Butta Half and 02 Butta Together were the first to shades I bought, and I really like both shades.

The last four products are also from NYX, and they’re from their 2024 holiday launch. I picked up the NYX Home Alone Ultimate Battle Plan shadow palette, the NYX Buttermelt face palette in 01, and two of the NYX Butter Gloss swirl lip glosses in Peppermint Swirl and Holly Berry Swirl. I’ve enjoyed these products.

Asos sale haul (July 2024)

I have a rather large Asos sale haul to share with you today. Some of the pieces I even got an extra 20% off. The haul includes a bit of everything; clothes, shoes, accessories, and make-up. Let’s begin with the clothes.

This little nautical inspired sweater vest is from Asos Design, and I think it’s so cute.

I believe tomato print and strawberry print and the like were quite popular last summer, and I just thought this tomato print blouse from Pieces was very fun and summery.

I picked up a another Spice Girls T-shirt from Asos Design. This one is grey which is not a colour I wear much, but I think it goes with a lot of different colours and acts like a neutral.

Like so many other people, I’ve been liking animal print, and I thought this jacket from Only was fun with the leopard print faux fur trims.

This matching set/suit from Asos Design is just so nice, and I can’t wait to style it and wear it.

I got two blue (and white) dresses from Asos Design. Both are super cute.

The last piece of clothing I picked up was (another) pair of red tights. I just love a coloured tight, and especially a red pair. These are from Asos Design.

These two pairs of heels are kind of in the same family; they’re both a shade of pink and strappy with a red detail on the front. The ones with the cherries are from Public Desire and the ones with the roses are from Glamorous.

Let’s move on to accessories. I think a tie is a really nice accessory that I want to wear more often, so I picked up these two checkered ties from the brand My Accessories.

How cute is this chain belt from Asos Design? It adds such a lovely detail to an outfit.

I saw a lot of cherry jewellery last summer as well, and this matching necklace and pair of earrings are from DesignB London.

Here’s another cute matching necklace and earrings set. Bows were popular pretty much all of last year, and these pieces from Asos Design are so cute and pretty.

And speaking of bows, I also picked up a golden necklace with a bow from Pieces, which is also very pretty. The other necklace is from Asos Design, and I really like the pearls and the malakit.

I also picked up these three pieces from Asos Design; a golden bangle with hearts, another style of cherry earrings, and a ring with a circle design.

The last jewellery in this haul is this set of two anklets or ankle bracelets from Topshop.

For hair accessories I got a purple beaded headband from My Accessories. You know I love a headband and I really like a beaded one. I also love bows in my hair, so I got two small hair clips from Reclaimed Vintage and a big pink and red striped one from DesignB London.

Lastly, I bought three make-up products. I got the Huda Beauty Liquid Blush Filter in Strawberry Cream, the Clinique Pop longwear lipstick in Poppy Pop, and the e.l.f. Cosmetics Power Grip dewy setting spray.

H&M sale haul (July 2024)

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.

Christmas clothing and accessories haul 2024

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.

5 favourites – November

Happy December 1 tomorrow. I can’t believe that Christmas is almost here! As always I’m super excited about December and Christmas time; December is my favourite month after all. November was a pretty decent month overall though, and I discovered some new favourites, so let’s talk about those.

Crocs Stomp winter boots (colour: Dark Cherry): I’m so glad I purchased these boots on sale back in the spring, because we’re had some very cold weather in Denmark this past month, and these boots made sure that my feet weren’t freezing.

e.l.f. Cosmetics Soft Glam satin foundation (shade: 13 Fair Neutral): I’ve mostly been wearing light coverage foundations the past couple of years, but I’d heard good things about this foundation, which has medium buildable coverage, and I really like it. It has a lovely satin finish, and I just wear a light layer.

Rare Beauty Always An Optimist Soft Radiance setting powder (shade: Light): I purchased this powder back in June, and I’ve actually enjoyed it ever since, so I thought it was about time that I featured it in a favourites post. I love a powder that has a soft radiance to it.

Haus Labs Power Sculpt velvet bronzer (shade: Soleil Sand): I’ve been reaching a lot for this Haus Labs bronzer lately. It’s simply a beautiful bronzer.

KAYALI Lovefest Burning Cherry I 48 Eau de Parfum: I’ve featured several KAYALI scents in my 5 favourites post, because I just love their scents. I was hesitant to purchase this one though, because cherry isn’t usually my favourite fruity scent. However, I was so pleasantly surprised by this perfume. I think it’ll be a perfect scent for the Christmas season.

Zalando haul (July 2024)

I have a Zalando haul to share with you today. It includes two pairs of shoes, some accessories, and some make-up bits.

My love for Crocs is ever growing, and I love the Siren style with the chunky heel. The pink version was on my wishlist for so long, and when they came to Zalando I purchased them immediately.

I bought the Mega Crush sandals from Crocs in a nude pink colour last year, and when I saw that these purple ones were on sale, I had to have them.

I also picked up two 5 pcs of Jibbitz on sale; the Keith Haring ones and some Snow White ones.

I’m still on the hunt for all kinds of brooches and these two from Pieces are so pretty.

I also got this red beaded headband from Pieces. You know I like my headbands.

Now, let’s move on to make-up. I love MAC lipsticks, and I never owned the original Snob lipstick, so I decided to get the new MACXIMAL matte lipstick in Lipstick Snob, which is a similar shade. I also picked up the rereleased frost lipstick in Haku, which came out for MAC’s 40th anniversary.

At a later time I also bought these three lipsticks on sale; the Revlon Colorstay Suede Ink lipstick in Lip Boom, the Maybelline Color Sensational lipstick in 240 Galactic Mauve, and another rereleased frost lipstick from MAC in the shade Chintz.

Lastly, I purchased one of the new shades of the MAC Glow Play blushes. This shade is called Plush Pepper. I also got the Kiko Milano Sculpting Touch creamy stick contour in 200 Hazelnut. Both products were on sale.

Collective haul – clothes, shoes, accessories (June 2024)

My collective haul for June is quite large, so I decided to divide it into two parts. This first part includes clothes, shoes, and accessories.

I wore this colourful matching set in my last outfit post, and I think it’s so fun. The pieces are from a brand called Nümph, and I got them on sale.

The next five pieces are from Monki, and they were all on sale. I love a fitted roll neck top, and I think the lilac, red, and black is a cool colour combo.

As you might have noticed, pink and red is one of my favourite colour combos, and this stripy shirt is so cute.

I have this style of oversized blazer in so many colours and prints, and now I also have it in orange.

I also have this style of trouser in so many different colours and prints, and now I also have a pair in pink.

I wasn’t sure about these long, wide leg shorts when I ordered them, but I loved them, when I tried them on.

In my last Zalando haul, I featured the Jeffrey Campbell Akita lace up boots in black, but when Zalando had the white version on sale as well, I had to pick them up.

And speaking of Jeffrey Campbell, I also got these fun western style boots.

I featured this pair of Nike Cortez sneakers in my 5 September favourites post, and I’m still in love with them. It’s one of my favourite colourways that I own.

I love Maanesten jewellery, and this Lulu ring, which I got on sale, is so pretty.

I got three straw hats to show you. Maybe a bit excessive, I know, but I love a straw hat in the summer. The first one is from Topshop, and the other two are from a Danish brand/website called Black Colour. The rest of the items in this haul are also from Black Colour.

These are the hair accessories I got from the Black Colour website. I just love hair accessories.

These are the reason behind my Black Colour order. I’ve been wanting to add big flower brooches/pins to my wardrobe for so long, and I was so excited when I found these. The red and pink ones have been my favourites, but I like the champagne one with the pearls as well.

5 favourites – September

The first month of autumn has gone by in flash. The weather was warm and summery until the middle-ish of the month, which was nice, but I’m so ready for more autumnal weather. Autumn is probably my favourite season when it comes to styling and putting together outfits, because when it’s colder you can layer, and layering usually makes an outfit more interesting. I’m also really excited about October. I was never really into Halloween, but this year I find myself really excited about Halloween decorations and anything pumpkin and pumpkin inspired. But before we head into Spooktober, let’s talk about my 5 favourites from September.

Green and pink Nike Cortez sneakers: I haven’t hauled this particular pair of Nike Cortez sneakers yet, but I’ve worn them a lot, since I bought them back in June. I just love this colour combo, and they’re more versatile than you might think.

RMS Beauty ReDimension Hydra bronzer (shade: Beachwalk Betty): I haven’t hauled this bronzer either, but it’s one of those products that was on my wishlist ever since I first saw it, and it did not disappoint. I generally love the RMS Beauty ReDimension line, and this glowy bronzer is simply stunning.

L.A. Girl Perfect Precision lip liner in Pinky: I’ve had and loved this lip liner for years, and I continually reach for it. It’s the perfect cool toned pink lip liner, and I’ve been wearing a cool toned pink lip quite frequently lately.

Fenty Beauty Cherry Treat conditioning lip oil: I like to wear a (tinted) lip oil over a lip liner with a make-up look, but this particular lip oil has been my go-to lip product to wear at home on no make-up days. It doesn’t really have any colour, but it feels lovely and moisturising on the lips.

Tuc bisquits/crackers w. sweet chili flavour: It’s been a long time since I last featured a snack in one of these posts, but I thought these bisquits were worth a mention. I like the original salty version, but I have a soft spot for any sweet chili flavoured snack, and these are so good.
