Robe and western flair

Here’s what I wore Monday May 6. I went on a brunch date with my boyfriend, and I’d been wanting to wear this fun robe ever since I got it, so I styled it with a bit of western flair, and I think it’s such a fun outfit.

(Robe – Topshop, shirt – second hand, bag – Silfen, trousers – Extro & Vert, socks – H&M, shoes – Raid)

Asos sale haul – clothes (April 2024)

Asos had an incredible sale back in April, which I definitely took advantage of. So much so that I have to split up my haul in two parts. This part is all the clothes I bought, and the second part is going to include accessories and shoes. Let’s just get into it.

Roll neck top are not in season right now, but I love a good roll neck top, so I can save it for colder weather. This ripped, dark green one is from Y.A.S.

This robe type piece from Topshop is so fun. I’ve worn it a couple of times now, and it’s such a fun piece to style. The next outfit I’ll post includes this robe.

This very summery short sleeve shirt is also from Topshop, and I brought it with on holiday earlier this month and wore it several times. I think it works best as a layering pieces.

I’ve already posted a look with this Damson Madder shirt. I just love the colours and the retro looking print.

You probably know by now that I love a matching set, and this set from In The Style feels and looks a little like satin pyjamas, but I don’t mind that.

This matching set is a little out there (the brand is called Extro & Vert, which makes sense), and I didn’t expect to like it as much as I did, when I tried it on. I’m still not sure where or when to wear it, but it’ll be my mission to figure that out.

Here’s another fun set from Extro & Vert. I love the colour and the fringes, however, the fringes do tend to fall off.

These colourful trousers are from a brand called Something New, and aren’t they fun?!

I didn’t have a pair of plain blue jeans in my wardrobe that I could actually fit, so I picked up this flared pair from Topshop, and I’ve enjoyed wearing them.

I also got this pair of colourful jeans from The Ragged Priest, and I’ve had fun styling them.

I’m not a sporty person, but I have been interested in trying out a skirt from Adidas Originals, and this red midi skirt with the pink stripes is the perfect skirt for a non-sporty fashion lover like me.

There are three items left in this haul and they’re all dresses. This floral maxi one is from Asos Design, and I’ve already worn it a couple of times.

This maxi dress is also from Asos Design, and the style is not something I would usually wear, but I thought it looked good on, so I’m excited to try to style it up.

And the last dress is this pretty floral one from Topshop. I think this would be a very nice date dress.

Matas haul – mainly sale (April 2024)

I have a make-up haul to share with you today. I purchased these items from the Danish “drugstore” Matas, and most of the items were on sale.

These are the Clarins Lip Comfort Oil Intense in the shades 01 Intense Nude and 02 Intense Plum. I love the “regular” Clarins Lip Comfort Oils, so I thought it would be fun to try out a more pigmented version.

MAC reformulated there matte lipsticks earlier this year, and I’d been wanting to try one out, so I picked the classic shade Candy Yum Yum, which I never owned before. It’s such a pretty, vibrant pink colour.

I’ve been enjoying the Fenty Beauty We’re Even hydrating longwear concealer. I got the shade 120N. I’d heard good things about the Fenty Skin lip oils, so I picked up the Fruit Quench’rz hydrating + conditioning lip oil duo, which include the Melon Treat and the Cherry Treat lip oils. I’ve been wearing the Cherry Treat one quite a bit lately, and it feels lovely and luxurious on the lips.

I was so excited about this Fenty Beauty launch. It’s the Demi’ Glow light-diffusing highlighter in Pretty Purlz 01, and it’s absolutely stunning.

The last Fenty Beauty product in this haul is the Gloss Bomb universal lip luminizer in Fuchsia Flex 12. I’d seen people on Instagram wear it, and it just looked so pretty.

Let’s move on to this little mix of glowy cheek products. I got the Essence So Mesmerizing blush stick in 01 Let Mermiracles Happen!, the Essence Blush Crush! in 10 Caramel Latte, the RMS Beauty ReDimension hydra powder blush in French Rosé, the Iconic London Multi-Use Cheek Glow blush in Hot Stuff, and the Dior Forever Glow Maximizer in 011 Pink.

Here’s a closer look at most of the products. All 5 of these products are lovely.

I enjoyed the RMS Beauty ReDimension hydra powder blush so much that I had to pick up another shade. I chose the shade Bohemian Girl. I also bought the RMS Beauty ReDimension hydra dew luminizer in Prosecco Fizz, which is also really pretty.

Lastly, I purchased four products from the Essence Got A Crush On Apricots collection. I picked up the swirl lipgloss in 01 Apricotly In Love, the aura blush in 01 Abracadapricots, the baked highlighter in 01 Feel The Apricôt D’Azur Sun, and the jelly lip care in 01 Apricoated With Love.

Blue wonderland
