June Favorites 2014

Hey guyyyyys :) Bit late to the party but today's blog is June favorites! This month I have an unsatisfying odd number of 11 favorites aha however I'll begin :) (All links to the products will be listed at the end of my description if I can find it!)

Handbag

First things first is my new bag from h&m that I got in the sale, it's just a black faux leather handbag with silver hardware that I got for £7! It has a detachable shoulder strap as well as two hand straps. I absolutely love it, it's the perfect size and is a great staple piece as it's plane and goes with pretty much every outfit, adding a mature feel to the outfit which I need ahaaha. Unfortunately I can't find the exact bag online however they may still be in stores and if you do find them I know they also do a brown version. Here's a similar bag http://www.hm.com/gb/product/21411?article=21411-A#shopOrigin=SA.

Sunglasses

Next on my list of favorites is my black transparent case from h&m and my pink circular sunglasses from New Look! The case from h&m (£2) is just something that protects your sunglasses or whatever you want to store in it whilst looking on trend and cute and I just love the transparent trend lately! Again I couldn't find this online however it may still be in store but there's plenty of similar things online. My sunglasses were £4.99 from New Look and are circular lens with a transparent pink frame that I love. They're just a cheap sturdy pare of sunglasses that will last me all summer and possibly even next if i'm careful. They add a retro look to all outfits and are just so glamorous looking! AGHHH again! I can't find them on the New Look website however Iv'e seen them in store as of late and i'm sure you can find similar ones in other stores. 

Bangerz Album

Every good favorites isn't quite complete without the 'Bangerz' CD by Miley Cyrus! This Album is my all time faveeeeee and each song is different and relatable. Her voice is so different and husky and the album has a "Dirty south hip-hop" sound. Big Shaun, French Montana, Ludacris, Nelly and Britney Spears all feature on the album and me and my sister LOVE blaring this out in the car. The deluxe album has 3 more songs I believe and is worth the extra money! If you buy it from a store (not on your phone or whatever) it comes with stickers ahaha. Itunes: https://itunes.apple.com/gb/album/bangerz-deluxe-version/id691280086?ign-mpt=uo%3D4

Tiny Tea

Ooooh this one gets me excited ahaha. Recently iv'e been on a health kick and have started eating healthy and exercising (kind of) and my friend bought me 'Tiny Tea' for my birthday and iv'e finally got round to drinking it! I'm not going to go into to much detail about what it does as such because i'm no expert (I'll leave a link to the website where you'll get a better explanation) however it's a tea that is essentially a detox and clears your skin, stops bloating, defines muscle etc on the right diet and daily exercise. So far i feel as if i'm not bloating? I'm not really sure but iv'e only been doing it for about 3 days (you drink it 30 minutes before or after every meal, so 3 times a day). It's an acquired taste but if you like herbal teas like myself then you'll probably like it (my friends hate it ahaha) but i'm enjoying getting into a routine and I'm just really enjoying it! :) http://www.yourtea.com/

Urban Decay Naked 3

As my prom was in the month of June, I was allowed to buy some nicer make up as I was going to be doing it myself so I got the URBAN DECAY NAKED 3 PALLET WOOOOO! There's 12 colours and it comes with a 2 ended eyeshadow brush. The colour pay off is insane and the packaging is stunning aha. The colours are beautiful and are sooo good for a smokey eye which i'm also loving! It was £37 which is to me slightly pricey however I know i'll get a lot of use out of it and it was for a special occasion. I got mine from a Debenhams in Reading but I know they're not sold in every Debenhams. You can also get them from House of Fraiser and online. http://www.debenhams.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/prod_10701_10001_123932030999_-1

Eyelash Curlers and Mascara

I'm going to do two of my next favorites together as one of them is the Eyeko eyelash curler and Maybeline The Rocket mascara. I got the eyelash curler from a magazine so it was obviously a lot cheaper then the retail price which isn't to bad at £12. I never got the hype about eyelash curlers and obviously it was because my eyelash curlers sucked! These have done wonders to my eyelashes and make such a difference! Doing this before I use the Rocket mascara it honestly makes my eyelashes look fake in a good way. People have asked me if I was wearing fake eyelashes because my eyelashes looked so naturally fluttery and my eyelashes aren't even naturally that long, just average. You don't have to get the waterproof version of the mascara, the only reason I got it was for prom and I wanted my makeup to last all night even if I was sweating from dancing haha but it honestly works! It's great for summer too because of the hot weather and if you go swimming, it does not budge however it is easy to remove with an eye makeup remover :) You can purchase the eyelash curlers online or in Space nk is a place I know you can get them from. Eyelash Curlers: http://www.eyeko.com/eyeko-lash-curler This isn't the waterproof version however you can buy this from any drugstore like boots or superdrug http://www.maybelline.co.uk/makeup/eye/mascara/volum-express-the-rocket-mascara.aspx.

Essie Nail Varnish

Essie nail varnish has always been one of my go to brands because it lasts a long time and you only really need one coat. This one in particular is called 'In the cab-ana' and it's a beautiful light blue/turquoise colour and it's perfect for summer! Not much else to say on that one, it's just a lovely go to summer colour!

Soap and Gloary 'Love at first blush'

I also got this for prom aha but it's become an everyday application in my makeup and I loveeeee it! It's a shimmery blush powder and it's a wheel of 3 alternating colours. A dusky shimmery pink (blush), a shimmery taupey colour (bronze) and a shimmery cream colour (highlighter) and together they create the perfect colour. It is shimmery but when on contact with your face it's not over shimmery and doesn't make you look like a disco ball if you know what I mean? ahha. I got mine from boots; oh and the packaging's really cute and has a mirror too! http://www.soapandglory.com/love-at-first-blush Mine was £11. 

Yankee Candle 

Holyyyyyyy shiz. Iv'e become OBSESSED with buying the little sampler candles from yankee, mostly because they're the cheapest (£1.80 however mine was cheaper as i did get mine on sale) and just really cute to put in my birdcage candle holder. This one is called 'Honey Blossom' and smells EXACTLY like Angle by Thierry Mugler. It burns so lovely and just fills an entire room. Oh and iv'e just looked on their website and it's cheaper online! http://www.yankee.co.uk/search/honey%20blossom/search.aspx

Powder Paint Fight

Ok so this is more of an activity. As I recently finished secondary school me and my year went down to our local recreational ground and had a huge flour and powdered paint fight with the occasional egg thrown my mostly the guys -.- It was so much fun and the powdered paint really made it even more fun (previous years just used flour) as EVERYONE was covered in vibrant colours and it just looked so cool. I must admit getting it in your eyes and mouth wasn't fun and washing it out of my friends bleach blonde hair was not easy (and in fact stained her hair slightly pink) but it was worth it and i'll never forget it! The powdered paint also lasts surprisingly longer than the flour. 

Golddigga Patent Boots

At long last we have reached the end! This is my last favorite of June 2014! I recently purchased some Doc Marten style white floral gouldigga boots. I bought them from Sports Direct in the sale online. They were originally £64.99 and went down to £18.00! Which I thought was a right bargain! I also found a 10% coupon code online which i'll try and find again for you guys! I did have to pay for postage and packaging which was only like £3 so it was worth it! They also sent me a free mug? ahaha. They fit perfectly and are really comfy! They give such a cute girly yet rock look as they are boots but they're floral. Ahhh i'm obsessed and literally style my outfit around them.They're also great quality. LOVE THEM. http://www.sportsdirect.com/golddigga-patent-ladies-boots-232028?colcode=23202801
