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.

Zalando sale haul (May 2024)

I have a Zalando sale haul to share with you today. The haul includes a lot of shoes and a few make-up bits.

Yes, I’ve added yet another pair of Nike Cortez sneakers to my shoe collection. Nike has just released so many good colour ways of the Cortez sneakers this past year or so.

I bought my first pair of Jeffrey Campbell shoes about a year ago, and I’ve since falling in love with the brand. These are the Akita lace up boots, and I can’t wait to wear them this upcoming autumn and winter.

Did I really need these white Jeffrey Campbell Litas with silver flames? Maybe not, but I think a small Jeffrey Campbell obsession is forming.

These shoes are from the brand Lamoda, which has a lot of fun shoes as well. I actually really like a platform flat (if you can call it that), and I love a pop of red in an outfit.

The Crocs obsession is well and thriving:) I got my first pair of Siren Crocs during Black Friday last year, and I’ve been on the look-out for more colours since. This bone colour is very neutral for what I usually wear, but because it’s such a statement shoe, I thought the light, neutral colour would work well with a lot of looks.

However, I also picked up this crazy, colourful Hello Kitty pair, because how could I not?! I love the glitter, the bows and the Hello Kitty jibbitz. They’re just so fun and cute.

And now we move on to the make-up bits. This is the MAC Teddy Takeover eye & face palette: Light. It’s from the Teddy inspired collection they did earlier in the year, and even though it’s a very neutral little palette, I wanted to try it out, since I haven’t tried a palette of this format from MAC before.

The last thing I picked up is the Bobbi Brown Sheer Finish pressed powder in Soft Porcelain, which I featured in my 5 favourites post for June, so as you can imagine I really enjoy this powder. The packaging is stunning as well.

Collective haul (May 2024)

I have a collective haul to share with you today. It includes beauty, accessories, one piece of clothing, and one pair of shoes. Let’s begin with the beauty stuff.

I’m a huge Kayali fan, so I’m always excited when they launch a new scent. This is the Vanilla Candy Rock Sugar I 42 Eau de Parfum, and I always get the 10 ml bottle, because I wear my perfumes lightly. I love the Vanilla I 28 scent from Kayali, so I was excited about this one, but I have to say that I was a little disappointed, when I smelled it. It smells more floral than I thought and less sweet and candy like.

I featured the Sol de Janeiro Carioca Crush perfume mist in my July favourites post, and it’s a lovely, fruity scent.

And speaking of Sol de Janeiro, I really wanted the Cheriosa ’62 Eau de Parfum (50 ml), because I love the 62 perfume mist/body spray, and I got it in a set with the Brazilian Bum Bum cream (25 ml) for a really good prize. At the same website I also picked up the Buxom Serial Kisser plumping lip stain in Beso, which is a red shade.

Moving on to some more make-up. I featured the L’Oréal Glotion natural glow enhancer in 901 Fair Glow in my June favourites post, and I still love this product.

I love a glowy blush and the Maybelline Sunkisser blushes are really nice, so I picked up some more shades: 02 Uptown Glow, 08 Shades On, and 12 Summer In The City.

Another Maybelline product I really enjoy are the Superstay Vinyl Ink liquid lipsticks, and just look at these beautiful shades; 150 Striking, 155 Upbeat, and 170 Unafraid.

The Dior Forever Glow Maximizers are so beautiful, so I got another shade called 014 Rosy, which is a stunning blush on my skin tone.

I remember the Collection brand from when I briefly lived in England 10 years ago, and the Danish drugstore now carries the line, so I decided to try out the brand again.

This is the Collection cream bronzer in Shade 1 Bronze (the only shade). It’s a bit orangy.

This is the Collection Diamond Shine highlighter in Shine Bright 1, which looks like a dupe for the Fenty Beauty Diamond Bomb All Over Diamond Veil, but this one is dryer.

Some more products inspired by Fenty Beauty; it’s the Collection Gorgeous Glow sticks in Blush 1 and Highlight 2.

Collection is also inspired by Charlotte Tilbury. This is the Collection Filter Finish liquid blush light wand in 2 Peach Pleasure, and it’s actually quite pretty.

The Collection mini eyeshadow palette in Explorer Solar Voyage 3 and the Collection hydrating lipstick in Sweet Rose 28 are nothing special.

And now jewellery. This is a pair of beautiful earrings from Maanesten. They’re called Notus, and I’ve worn them quite a bit.

Here’s a bunch of cute jewellery pieces I got 15% off from H&M.

Did I buy another bow hair clip? Yes I did.

Is this my first straw hat? No, it’s not, but I didn’t have one with a tie. It’s also from H&M.

I already have this style of dress from H&M in blue, but it’s just such a good dress for hot summer days, so I got one in pink as well.

And lastly, a pair of Nike Cortex sneakers with my name written all over them. How could I not buy a pair of pink and red Nike Cortez!

Asos sale haul – accessories and shoes (April 2024)

This is the second part of my huge Asos haul from April. This part includes accessories and shoes (plus a few make-up bits that weren’t on sale). Let’s begin with the accessories.

I purchased two bags. This first one is from the brand House of Holland, which is a brand that I’ve been interested in buying from before, so when I saw this pastel rainbow bag at a very good price, it was a sign.

I really like a beaded bag, and I loved the colours on this one from Asos Design.

I also love a bucket hat, and I thought this colourful one from the brand Baggu that you can tie under your chin was fun and practical.

This western style belt is from My Accessories, and I liked the suede look and the yellowy brown colour.

I’m in need of a new pair of knitted gloves for next winter, and I loved the colours of this pair from Daisy Street.

I don’t buy a lot of new sunglasses these days, because I actually don’t wear sunglasses that often, but I really liked this blue and green cat-eye pair from Topshop, and I have worn them several times.

The last accessories in this haul are these two pairs of earrings from Asos Design. I love statement earrings, and I thought these button style ones were fun.

Moving on to shoes (and there’s a lot of them). This pair of shiny red mules is from a brand called Forever New.

How fun are these platform sandals?! There are from a brand called Shelly’s London, and I love the butterfly design and the 70’s disco vibe.

These chunky sandals from Circus NY are perfect for summer.

I already own these “raindrop” ombré platform sandals from Topshop in blue and green, and I just think that they’re such a fun addition to an outfit.

I also purchased this other pair of chunky platform sandals. These are in a stunning blue velvet and they’re from Asos Design.

I attended two weddings this year, and I wore these pink stilettos at the first one I went to in May. They’re from Asos Design, and they matched the dress I wore perfectly.

Moving on to boots. I know that it’s not the season for boots right now, but autumn and winter will roll around again at some point, and I love to wear all kinds of boots in colder weather. This pair is from Monki, and I love the green soles.

I love the mustard colour of these leather boots from Asos Design.

These two pairs of boots from Asos Design are the same style of boots just in two different colours. I love both the style and the colours of these pairs of boots, and I think they’re be so versatile.

These two pairs of boots from Asos Design are also the same style of boots just in different colours/prints. I love an animal print and I love lilac, and I think the style of boot is very nice.

I’m so excited about these black knee high boots from Jeffrey Campbell. I had a pair of second hand boots similar to these some years ago that I loved, but they were falling apart, so I’m glad to have a new pair of black knee high boots in my collection.

The last pair of shoes in this haul are these white western style mules from Raid. They’re quite unique and fun.

The very last items in this haul are these three e.l.f. Cosmetics Cream Glide lip liners, which weren’t on sale, but I really wanted to try them out. I picked up the shades Baddest Beige, Pinky Swear, and Red Receipt, and they’re very pretty shades.

Collective haul (April 2024)

I have a rather large collective haul to share with you today. It includes a lot of beauty products, ond piece of clothing, and some shoes.

I love the Anastasia Beverly Hills lip liners, so I picked up another shade called Chai, which is a beautiful deep brown.

I picked up these four products from Cocopanda, and I got 10% off all four products. I purchased the Milani Cheek Kiss cream bronzer in 110 Hey Honey, the Physicians Formula Bread & Butter bronzer in Toasty, the Physicians Formula Strawberry Jam blush in Strawberry, and the Ole Henriksen Pout Preserve Peptide lip treatment in Blood Orange Spritz. I haven’t used these products enough to form a proper opinion on them yet, but they sure look cute.

They next products coming up I purchased from Sephora. This is the R.E.M. Beauty Yours Truly makeup set which includes the Midnight Shadows liquid eyeshadow in 1954, the On Your Collar plumping lipgloss in Pink Razor, and the Interstellar highlighter topper in Honeymoon High.

From R.E.M. Beauty I also got the Essential Drip glossy balm in Shirley, and I had to pick up one of the Rare Beauty Soft Pinch luminous powder blushes and chose the shade Cheer, which is so pretty.

Here’s another set I purchased from Sephora. It’s the Laneige Berries ‘N Choco Kisses lip duo set, which includes a full size Lip Glowy Balm in Berry and a mini Lip Sleeping Mask in Chocolate. I haven’t tried these out yet.

The last products I got from Sephora are the Sol de Janeiro Brazilian Crush Cheirosa 59 and 71 perfume mists (90 ml). I really enjoy both of these scents, though they’re very different.

These last beauty products I got in a Lyko sale. I bought two of the Maybelline Sunkisser blushes (shades: 5 Blazing Blush and 6 City Sizzle), the Catrice Kohl Kajal Waterproof im 180 Red Coral, the Maybelline Lash Sensational Sky High mascara in Burgundy Haze, and then I got the Sol de Janeiro Brazilian Crush Cheirosa 68 perfume mist (90 ml) as a point shop gift.

The only piece of clothing in this collective haul is this pair of purple sequin trousers from Crás, which I got on sale. They’re so fun.

And lastly, shoes. I picked up these snake print pumps in an H&M sale. They’re quite classic and I don’t have anything else like these.

You know my favourite style of sneakers are Nike Cortez, and I kind of collect them at this point. This navy blue version is a great and very wearable addition to my growing collection.

The last pair of shoes in this haul is this pair of dark cherry Crocs Stomp winter boots. I’m excited to wear these next winter.
