The other day, me and my lovely mother spent the day in the city doing a spot of retail therapy in the rain. I picked up only a few things as in all honesty there wasn't that many items that struck my eye that day.
First I picked up this set of beautiful Essie nail polishes in a set called 'bridal bliss', which I'm guessing is picked out for ladies on their special day. Despite this, and no I'm not getting married, I bought it as the colours were to elegant to leave on the self! Essie polishes usually retail at £7.99 each but in this duo set they were £12.99.
'Allure' is the pale, milky colour which I think will look so pretty and 'Eternal Optimist' is a more pastel pink colour which is really flattering. Another reason why I picked up this set is because I recently started a new job as a waitress and have to look keep myself looking natural so I have to stick to natural nail colours. I have no problem with that though as I think natural nail colours (pales, nudes, and pinks) look prettier anyway (but that's just my opinion!)
Finally I also caved in to purchase my first MAC Lipstick in the colour Créme Cup. In all honesty this is literally the colour of my natural lips, but therefore I know it will definitely use it! It's such a pretty pink colour and I will do a review on it in the near future so keep your eyes peeled!
Then I took a trip into Topshop (as per usual) actually wanting to buy a skort as I don't own one yet and think they look gorgeous. Instead, I came out with this gem. It's a skirt with a tapestry looking design with contrast sides and I love the fusion of colour within it.
I've also wanted to try and break out of my monochrome habit as black & white is just boring! This skirt has an A-line fit so gradually widens towards the bottom and looks extremely flattering. I have also bought several A-line style skirts from Topshop as I absolutely adore them.
Hopefully I will be doing an outfit post soon styling this skirt because I am head-over-heels in love with it!
