Collective Shopping Haul | Primark, Lush and Easons

Sunday, 25 August 2013
Hey guys! 

The other day I went shopping to Dublin with my friend. I bought a nice amount of stuff so I thought I would share it with you. 

Firstly, I went to Easons because they had a Summer reading offer on and I wanted to see if they had The Fault in Our Stars by John Green. I saw that John Green's books had the Summer reading offer which was buy three books get the cheapest free. I bought The Fault in Our Stars, Looking for Alaska and An Abundance of Katherines. I've already finished reading The Fault in Our Stars which is such an amazing book! I recommend that if you haven't read it yet, go read it! I'm halfway through reading Looking for Alaska and it is amazing already.

After Easons, we went to Primark. In Ireland, we call it Penney's but in the UK it's called Primark. I didn't really see a lot of things that I liked in Primark. There were a few things but they weren't in my size. I ended up buying a makeup bag, a nail varnish, a necklace, a t-shirt and a crop top. 



The moment I saw this makeup bag, I thought it was adorable. I just love the little studded ears and the red bow. I was a bit afraid that all of the makeup that I like to wear daily and some extra wouldn't all fit in but it can fit everything I wanted it too and more! I'm really happy with it and to make it even better, it was only four euro. What a bargain!


I have a lot of nail polishes but I actually didn't own a black one. I really this brand too because even though it is cheap, the nail varnish stays on for ages and doesn't chip much. The price has gone up slightly from 2.49 to 2.75 I'm not too sure what the "Rubber Effect" is yet though. Check out my blogpost on nail varnishes here! 



I also bought this really cute necklace. Mustaches are like a big trend now and I think this is so cute. It will look really nice with a collar shirt and it goes with everything because it's black. This cost 3 euro.


I really like this little crop top that I bought. It has a two chains that go along the neckline and it is lace at the front. The only thing is that it is quite see through at the front. It was seven euro.


I saw this little orange t-shirt as soon as I walked in the door as it was on a rack that said "One Euro". I love bargains so I went straight for that rack. This t-shirt was three euro reduced to one euro. I just couldn't pass it and you can never have enough t-shirts.

After Primark, I really wanted to go to Lush. I had never been in any of their stores before and I had always heard people raving about how amazing their stuff was. There are none of these stores near where I live so I couldn't not go in. I restrained myself from buying the whole shop and only bought two things. 


First I picked out this little guy. I think he is adorable and he smells amazing! He's a little bath bomb. He's called "Ickle Baby Bot". I can't wait to use him! It was 2.75.


 I then got this bath bomb. This one is bigger than the robot. It's called "Space Girl". It's shaped like a planet or something. I really love the smell of this one as it's quite strong. This one has little red glitters in it that go into the water and float around. This one was also 2.75.

I hope you guys liked seeing what I bought!

30 Day Disney Challenge: Day 4

Friday, 16 August 2013
Hey guys!

Favourite Disney Song

I have a lot of favourite Disney songs because they are just amazing so I had to break down my favourites. I got down to just four. It was very difficult to get down to four because I love most of them. 

My first favourite song is Colours of the Wind from Pocahontas. I just really like the meaning inside the song. It's all about respecting nature and the things in it. I love how Pocahontas is trying to show John Smith about nature speaking to her people.



My next favourite song is Part of Your World from The Little Mermaid. Ariel has found loads of gadgets from the "human" world and she wants to be a part of it so she can use these things. She may have all of these things but she wants more. I like how catchy the song is. 



My third favourite Disney song is Circle of Life from The Lion King. I think this song really sets the story for the Lion King as it shows all of the animals in the jungle together and celebrating the birth of their future King of the Jungle. 


My final favourite Disney song is Under the Sea from The Little Mermaid. I just love this song and it's so catchy. I like the tune of the song and the sounds. I love how all the sea creatures join in with the song.

30 Day Disney Challenge: Day 3

Thursday, 15 August 2013
Hey guys!

Favourite Prince

I only have one favourite Disney Prince. My favourite prince is Prince Eric from The Little Mermaid. He falls in love with Ariel just from hearing her voice. I just love the story of it. I think that they are such a perfect match even though she was a mermaid. I just think everything about the Little Mermaid is perfect.

30 Day Disney Challenge: Day 2

Hey guys!

I forgot to do the Disney Challenge yesterday so I'm going to do day 2 and 3 today. 

Favourite Disney Princess

I have two favourite Disney Princesses. The first is Snow White. I just think she is gorgeous and she was the first Disney Princess. I love her dress and is so kind to all animals. I just love her.



My second Disney princess is Ariel. I just adore her hair. I want mine that length and she is just beautiful. I don't know why but I just love her smile for some reason.

30 Day Disney Challenge: Day 1

Tuesday, 13 August 2013
Hey guys!

I'm starting the 30 Day Disney Challenge today! Day one is "Favourite movie". I love almost all Disney movies so this one was kind of hard but I narrowed it down to two movies. They are Beauty and the Beast and The Little Mermaid. 


I just love the whole story of Beauty and the Beast. Belle didn't want to stay with the beast but she did it for her father and then she ended up being in love with him. I just think it is so cute and I love Belle's yellow dress. 


I also really love The Little Mermaid. I think that Ariel is just beautiful. Most little girls want to be a mermaid and it shows Ariel who wants to be a human so it is different. The whole movie is just amazing. I love all the songs too.
