August Sounds 2013

Hi guys,
After another lengthy absence I'm back again! I had three repeat exams to do for college over the past two weeks so I've been spending the last couple of months studying for those - along with working full-time...leaving me with absolutely no time whatsoever to blog.
I'm back today with a music related post to ease me back into things, these have been some of my top music picks for the month of August, Enjoy!

Mini Haul - Topshop, Urban Decay, Asos.




Hi guys, today's post is going to be a mini-haul featuring a few products I've picked up over the last few weeks. I'm finally finished exams so now I can spend loads of time developing new posts and ideas that I have for improving my blog, Enjoy!


Urban Decay's Naked Basics Pallette, €26.
After months of indecision I finally gave in and picked up this tiny basics palette from Urban Decay. Although I own many of their eye products already I was really lacking matte shadows, which the Basics palette is full of. This set is perfect for throwing into your handbag for touch ups throughout the day and creates an effortless smokey eye in minutes. I highly recommend this to any of you who are new to using eye shadows as it's so versatile and easy to blend.

L-R: Venus, Foxy, W.O.S Naked 2, Faint, Crave.
ASOS Fine Rings €10.06 
(Unfortunately these have sold out since I purchased them)



I have been looking for these 'above knuckle rings' for absolutely ages, all my favourite youtubers wear them in their videos so I decided that I just had to get my hands on them (no pun intended!). This packet of ten was only €10 on Asos which is amazing value compared to others I've seen. On Asos marketplace it can be up to €28 for only two rings, so make sure to shop around before you purchase! I absolutely love the way these rings look on my hands - they're the perfect accessory to any outfit. 

Topshop Lipstick in Tease €12



I spotted this lipstick in Topshop the other day and couldn't leave without it, It's the perfect bold lip colour for a night out on the lash. Tease is a Barbie Pink shade with cool under tones and a creamy moisturising formula, it looks great layered on the lips but also works well as a stain by simply dabbing it lightly with your finger.



Topshop Nail Varnishes in Venus Flytrap and Crystal Clouds €8 each


While in Tophop I also picked up these two nail varnishes that I just couldn't resist! Venus Fly Trap is the perfect colour for Summer, its neon/lime green tone looks great with a tan. Crystal Clouds is a bronze metallic colour that looks gold in some lights. It's the perfect nail colour for nights out on the lash and will dress up any outfit! 
Thanks for reading guys x

Todays post is just going to be a quick catch up! Basically, I just wanted to let anyone who follows me know that I'm back now after a bit of a break from blogging. I stopped writing posts for a couple of months recently, mainly because I was just feeling disheartened - there's so many blogs out there and it's hard to put your own unique stamp on things! I've also been really busy with college but I'm finishing up in two weeks time so i'll be posting non-stop then and I have loads of new ideas! Thanks so much for continuing to follow me and my blog. Above is just a little collage of photos I've taken during my break
