Collective Asos haul

Over the past few months, I’ve been collecting a bunch of things from Asos, and I thought I would share them with you.

Grøn og hvid stribet T-shirt m. paillet juletræ - Brave SoulRød oversized T-shirt m. julemandsprint - Reclaimed Vintage

I know, I know. Christmas is six months away, but I found these two cute Christmas T-shirt super cheap on sale, and I couldn’t resist. The green and white stripy one is from Brave Soul and the oversized red one is from Reclaimed Vintage.

Hvid top m. blomstrede organzaærmer - New Look

How adorable is this white top with organza daisy printed sleeves? It’s from New Look, and I thought it might be the perfect summer top.

Orange crop top m. bindebånd - Boohoo

I was one the lookout for an orange top to go with my pink shorts suit, and this smock one from Boohoo is just what I had been looking for.

Turkis og hvide stribede cropped jeans m. vide - Asos

These stripy kick flare jeans are from Asos’ own brand. I found them in the sale section, and thought they were really cute. These would look great with the orange top as well.

Hvide spidse mules m. røde hjerter og gennemsigtig hæl - Asos

I first saw these heart print mules from Asos’ own brand in a picture for an ankle bracelet, and I knew I wanted them, but several weeks past before they went on the website, but as soon as they did, I purchased them. I’m not sure why, but I was just drawn to them.

Sorte mules m. hvide margueritter - Monki

These daisy mules from Monki is just so cute, and I’m sure they’ll go with so many of my summer outfits.

Hvid krave

I’ve been seeing these types of collars around lately, and I thought I would get one and try styling it. It’s from Asos’ own brand.

Kravekæde m. påfuglefjer

Lastly, I found this collar chain (from Asos’ own brand) in the men’s section and thought it was such a fun piece. It’ll definitely add a little something extra to an outfit.

Grey for grey

Not according to plan

Here’s the make-up I wore with this outfit. This eye make-up did not turn out according to plan (the metallic brown shade turned greenish when blended), but I thought I would share it with you anyways, because I actually don’t hate it, and it’s very realistic that things don’t always turn out the way you thought they would.

Essence Bloom Baby, Bloom! collection

DSC_0825

About 1,5 months ago I stumpled apon a new limited edition collection from Essence. Essence always makes the cutest limited edition collections and the Bloom Baby, Bloom! collection is no exception. I picked up the eyeshadow palette, the primer oil, the two baked highlighters, and the blushlighter.

DSC_0832

I was very intrigued by the colour story of this eyeshadow palette. I’ve only used it once so far, and I wasn’t impressed. Essence eyeshadows varies a lot in pigmentation and quality, and the three shades I’ve used from this palette (the coral, the light peach and the light yellow) were not great. The light yellow and light peach were pretty much invisible, and the coral was just okay. I’m hoping that some of the other shades are better.

The collection includes this Healthy Glow Primer Oil (01 Violet in Bloom). It contains rice oil and vitamin E, and it’s supposed to be caring and skin conditioning. I’ve used it a few times, and so far I like it. It smells really good too.

DSC_0838DSC_0869DSC_0878

The products that initially caught my eye were the baked highlighters. They come in two shades; 01 Daisy Me Glowing and 02 Rose & Shine! They are very glittery and shiny. I’ve only worn the light shade (02 Rose & Shine!) so far, which has a really pretty pink duochrome shift to it.

The last product I purchased from the collection is the blushlighter in the shade 01 I Lilac You! I’ve been seeing these blushlighter type products different places lately, and I think it’s an interesting idea. I’ve worn this product once so far, and I actually thought it looked really pretty, so I’m excited to wear it again.

This very last product was not a part of the Bloom Baby, Bloom! collection, but since it’s from Essence I thought I would feature it in this haul. I love Essence blushes; they are some of my favourites. I already have one of the The Blush blushes, which I love, so I thought I would get the other available shade in 20 Bespoke. It’s quite an interesting blush shade since it’s a very bronzy colour, and I thought it would be a perfect addition to my blush collection.

Always a winner

Here’s the make-up I wore with this outfit. A monochromatic make-up look is always a winner in my book.

Red off-shoulder smock top

Here’s what I wore Thursday June 4. I’ve had the red off-shoulder smock top for almost two years, but this was my first time wearing it for some reason. It’s really cute though, and I really like how it looks paired with relaxed jeans and a pair of colourful heeled sandals.

(Top – H&M, jeans – Monki, heels – second hand)

Warm yellow and orange tones
