What's in my hand luggage?

Hello girlies,

As I told you guys in my last post that I  would be going to Majorca for a week and I didn’t have time to make a post before I went but I thought even though summer is practically over I would show you what I took with me.

So first thing I went shopping on the day before and got myself some new clothes (which I will show you on my next haul post), some beauty supplies and also a gym bag which I used as my hang luggage.



So I basically separated some socks and the amount of underwear I was going to need, five tops and bottoms, a dress, a playsuit, three bikinis, a flip-flop, a flat sandal and a black pump. This is what I packed as for cloth wise as I only stayed there for a week. To be totally honest I used most of the clothe I packed so I think this is the right amount of clothes to take for a week vacation/holiday.

 
On my makeup bag I obviously put my makeup, makeup wipes, deodorant, sun cream, tooth paste, allergy tablets and my toothbrush.


On my little pencil case from my home town I put all my cables and adaptors that I would need during my stay over there.

On the bigger makeup bag I put my digital camera and charger and my underwater camera.

I obviously took a hang bag so in that hand bag I carried the big makeup bag with the cameras in it, the pencil case, my wallet, passport, tickets, oyster card, my iPad, my iPod and my iPhone.

This is basically all I packed for in Majorca. Did any of you guys go anywhere this summer?
If so where and how was it? A nd even if you didnt comment down below what you did this summer.

Much love,

September Favourites

Hello lovelies,

I know its been nearly two weeks since I posted something but I'll be writing two posts today and posting them at different times.
I know I'm a bit late with my september favourites but here it is..



There's not much things that I enjoyed using or doing as most of the time I was writing essays.
Starting with beauty favourites something I've been enjoying since summer is the Fit Me foundation by maybelline on the shade 120 classic ivory. As this foundation is very light light on your skin and makes you feel like you're hardly wearing anything.



Another I've used a lot this month is the famous Fit Me concealer by Maybelline in the shade 15. As every blogger/ beauty vlogger has been talking a bout this concealer since Maybelline announced it i got it as you saw on my mini haul  post. It's exactly like the foundation light but very good coverage (well if you're going for a very natural look).


Moving on from face beauty products to lashes. If you have been with me since I started my blog you would know that I LOVE the Rimmel The Scandaleyes mascara (the orange with black sell line packaging) but I've been feeling like that one was too much for my eyes as I used nearly everyday, when I would get home I would look in the mirror and it looked like a had a black eye as the mascara smudged and had me question myself if I looked like that the whole day so I gave the Scandaleyes show off mascara also by Rimmel. The difference between them is that the brushes are designed differently. Don't get me wrong I still love the Scandaleyes mascara but for a day-to-day basis I would rather use the Scandaleyes Show Off mascara because as the brush is smaller and curvier not much product goes to you lashes again giving you a more natural look.


Moving on to Lips care. This past month I've been loving the Baby Lips Hydrate Lip balm (moisturiser). It literally does what it says on the packaging, it leaves your lips more hydrated and soft and more heathy looking. As I forgot to get a picture of just the Candle I'm just going to mention it here xD. This Candle is literally heaven leaves nearly the whole house smelling like Very Cherry Jelly Belly.


Now for my fashion favourite this month was definitely My new leopard neon print scarf from Primark, you can see more about it in my mini haul post.

And Finally for my book favourite this month it has to be the only book I had time to read, even hough I only read a few pages I have a feeling that I'm going to love it.


So this is it for this month's favourite. So how about you? Have you tried and loved any of the things OI mentioned? Or better what have you been loving through out the past month?

Much Love,
Maria xox

Back to "School"

Hello girlies,

One of the reasons I have been lacking on posts this past week or two is because I started sixth form (last two years of high school for you lovely American followers) and for this space of a week and a half that I've been there I've gotten 3 essays and 4 intense researches to do. I promised to do a post everyday this month but it didn't work out as I planned due to those 'homework's', so from now on I'll try my best to post at least once a week not just for you guys but because i want to (obviously).


So heres my "Back to school" haul (kind of xD) :


I was searching for a cute backpack everywhere and when i finally found one on ebay it was out of stock so I searched for the exact same one and found it from another seller (thank god). The bag bellow is by Anna Smith is in the colour turquoise polka dots. (got it for £18.99).





 Then I went on a hunt for cheap school supplies (project books, pens,pencils, labels, rulers, binders and etc) so I went to Tesco's xD thats where I got those project books bellow (notebooks), BiC pens, ruler, HB pencils and that little box of labels which all of that cost me about £17-20 because I got about 5 project books (£2.50 each). I end up not needing those project books because my Sixth Form actually gave some to us (one for each teacher) which I didn't know they would but even though I'm not going to use these daily I use to revise, copy the lesson down when I get home, make notes, do my homework  and also do my own research on (which is very useful and will help me when i comes to revising for the exams).




The binder i didn't buy xD i asked my dad to bring one from his work because it was easier and cheaper.



This pencil case bellow I got it in Brazil at a store called Tok&Stok, cant remember how much it was but it wasn't that expensive. Since I was young all my pencil cases were from there and all see through but in different colours each year xD.






Tomorrow I'll be going out to get more things which are missing for some of my lesson. For example a huge A3 folder to carry my photography books in, Hole-puncher to make holes on my paper to put in my binder and also a new pack or just one eraser haha.



Did you just go back to School/College/Sixth form? What did you get?

Much Love,
Maria xox
