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.

Brighter version

Here’s the make-up I wore with this outfit. I had so much fun matching my make-up look to my outfit. I still think it’s a Christmassy make-up look, but a brighter version. I guess I’m really into brighter, more colourful Christmas looks this year.

Annual tea date

Here’s what I wore Sunday December 5. I went on a tea date with my boyfriend, and it was so lovely. I think it’s becoming an annual thing to go on an afternoon tea date in December.

Black, white, red, green

Here’s what I wore Friday December 3. Black, white, and red are one of my favourite colour combos and with pops of green added it’s a great colour combo for Christmas looks as well.

Revolution x Bratz

I loved Bratz dolls growing up, so the Revolution x Bratz collection is so nostalgic to me and I just had to get a handful of products from the collection. The pictures on the products are from the first collection of Bratz dolls, which released in 2001.

I decided to pick up the Forever Flawless Limitless palette, which is the big palette with all four of the original Bratz girls on it. This is such a fun and colourful palette, and I love the packaging.

I also picked up two out of the four smaller palettes. I picked up the Cloe eyeshadow palette and the Jade eyeshadow palette.

This is what the Cloe palette looks like. My very first Bratz doll was the Cloe doll from the very first collection of Bratz dolls, so I just had to have this palette.

I also had a Jade doll (though one from one of the later collections of dolls), so I decided to pick up the Jade palette as well. I really liked the colour story of this palette as well.

Then I also purchased the kohl liner set, which contains four pastel coloured liners; one for each of the four main girls.

And lastly, I bought the Maxi Plump lipgloss and the Lip Crayon both in the shade Cloe. They’re both very pretty nude shades.

Soft neutral with a hint of pink

Here’s the make-up I wore with this outfit. Another red lip, but this time paired with a soft neutral eye with a hint of pink.

Gingerbread man theme

Here’s what I wore Thursday December 2. As you can see, I went for a gingerbread man theme with this outfit, and I love how fun and festive this whole look is. I’m pretty sure I spread some Christmas joy at work that day.
