What I Bought - Seaside edition

Hi lovelies, 

Whilst I was on vacation to the shore I did a bit of shopping, only a little yet it cost more than I anticipated. I am the kind of person that buys one thing at a time but after awhile you still accumulate a lot of things and the money you spend also adds up. That being said I still love everything I bought even though I didn't expect to buy anything when I left for my trip.

At Di I spotted a display from the brand The Balm. I never ever saw this in Belgium before and never really showed much interest in but when you see a new brand that you've heard great things about, you gasp for air and just stand there staring with your mouth open, or at least that happened to me. I left the store with the Instain Longwearing Blush in Houndstooth. It's a lovely mauve shade and really stays longer than other blushes. I paid 12.95€ for the blush. That same day at Claire's I bought the gold-beaded headband for about 6€. 

A couple days later I bought a Catrice nailpolish in Mermaid My Day, lovely green mermaid color. It's all in the name, isn't it? Pricepoint depends on the range but is around 3€. I also bought at Kruidvat a new pair of sunglasses. I had been looking for a boho style that was quite round and I think I succeeded my quest and found a lovely pair for 10.95€. 

The last day I also went back to Di because I couldn't get a certain palette out of my head. I went back and came out with a brand new eyeshadow palette from The Balm. I chose the Meet Matte Nude palette and it's a great neutral palette. I came to the conclusion that I had barely any to none matte eyeshadows so that's how I justified the whopping 30€ I spend on this. Also try to look at it this way when you do the math, it's 30€ for 9 shadows which makes it about 3 euros per shade and that's less than you pay for any single eyeshadow on the market. The only thing I wonder is for what will I use the yellow colour? Suggestions are welcome.

 I hoped you liked this little haul. 

Goodbyeeee

What I bought - Present Edition

Hi lovelies, 

A while ago at the end of October I went to Hema and found that their was a limited edition line going on. All kind of products that they don't have otherwise, from jewelry to household products. I saw the jewelrystand and was like I have to have a look at that. I found a set of earrings, a ring and a necklace. The necklace is just a small gold heart and it's really adorable. I also saw a ring with initials in them and I texted Anais and was like 'there is a ring with an N in it' and she was like 'Ooh that's so awesome. I want that!' So guess what? Considering the pieces were really inexpensive, I bought them for her as a present. Aren't we so cute together it's really annoying? So 2 presents for her and yes, I bought myself a present too. The earrings are so pretty, they are oval shaped earrings in the most gorgeous shade emerald, dark green. Sadly they come off pretty blue in the picture. They had a blue version too btw. I don't know why I am describing these pieces because you can see them yourself below.

Everything together it cost me 9.85 euro. I think the necklace was 3.95 and the earrings and ring both 2.95. So that's all very cheap that's probably because the quality isn't great because well you can't have real gold for that little amount of money. It's probably made from Nikkel and I hope it's not because Anais is allergic to that. That thought only hit me after I already bought her presents. I could cry because I felt so stupid that I forgot that but well yeah too late now. My lovely girlfriend did really like it or at least that's what she told me to not hurt my feelings. 

Goodbyeeee
