This was my first buy of the day and I don't even care how expensive it was, I am completely and utterly in love! I adore playsuits and this is just gorgeous. It has mesh shoulders and back which makes it even more pretty and unique. Definitely my favourite buy of the day!

Top - Topshop - £25

(x)

I've seen a lot of this style of top around so I thought I'd invest in this since I really love the colours and the pattern on this one. I wore it today though and the straps kept coming undone which was quite annoying.

Top - River Island - £28

(x)

I love this top because it's really light and floaty which is perfect for summer. I can see myself wearing this to the pub or on trips out on sunny days.

Shorts - River Island - £25

(x - not sure if this is the exact pair, but similar)

I really needed another pair of shorts as all of mine are really old and getting too small, so I was really happy to have found these.

Dress - H&M - £24.99

(x)

You've gotta love a bit of monochrome! I'm playing it safe with this dress because it is available in blue and yellow, but I thought I'd stick with the black and white. It's still summery...right? 

Dress - H&M - £7.99

(x)

H&M has some lovely stuff in at the moment. I wasn't too sure about this dress when I first picked it up, but after trying it on I had to have it. It's so quirky, I really love it!

Skirt - H&M - £12.99

This skirt doesn't seem to be on the website. Probably the most summery thing I've bought, this will definitely brighten up my wardrobe. I love the colours, I think I'll probably pair this with a white top to make the colours really stand out.

Kimono - H&M - £14.99

(x - not the same, but similar style)

I've wanted a kimono since last summer and I finally got one and IT HAS TASSELS! I'm probably going to end up wearing this with just about everything, it's perfect!!

Dress - Primark - £13

I'm still not too sure about this dress, but I think it might be nice to wear on days when there's a bit of a breeze since it has long sleeves. I like the pattern, but I'm not sure if the style suits me.

Pyjama top - Primark - £2.99

This was too cute not to buy!! I don't have enough pyjama tops, especially not light ones for summer. There were some cute bottoms to go with this, but I only really wear leggings to bed, so I didn't buy them.

Shoes

Sandals - New Look - £17.99

Sandals - New Look - £7.99

I can't find the second pair online. These were both impulse buys because I never seem to have any sandals, or just summer shoes in general, so I wanted to stock up this year so I don't end up suck in converse for another summer!

Sandals - River Island - £28

(x)

Probably a little more than I'd like to have paid, but the gold trim sold me! They're so so pretty and I can't wait to be walking around Amsterdam in them.

Accessories

Bag - H&M - £12.99

(x)

Every summer when it comes to going to the beach or to the lake district with my friends I always find myself wishing I had a big bag I could take all of my stuff in, and finally I invested in one! This will be perfect for packing all of the useless crap I like to take with me whenever I'm off out for the day.

Purse - River Island - £10

(x)

I decided it was about time I invested in a new purse. My old one has served me well but I think it's almost at breaking point. Since green is my favourite colour, I couldn't resist this beauty! Although I am having a little trouble with the zip, but I'm hoping that's just because it's new and needs wearing in a bit.

Make up / Skin care

Zoella Body Lotion - Superdrug - £4

(x)

I love Zoe, so buying her products was a no-brainer for me! I love everything in her line and I really hope she brings out more soon. This body lotion is honestly the creamiest, most moisturising lotion I have ever used, I absolutely love it and highly recommend it.

Facemask - Primark

I have literally just used this and it smells divine! I love having little pampering sessions from time to time and my skin always feels so soft after using a facemask.

False Eyelashes - Primark - £1

I don't often wear false eyelashes, but I actually really like the Primark ones and they are so cheap!

Bourjois Healthy Mix Foundation - Superdrug - £9.99

(x) 

I used this today and it has really good coverage, but I think it may be a little bit dark for my skin. I'm still on the lookout for a really pale foundation that will make my skin look flawless (or as close to as possible, ha!) So if any of you have any recommendations please leave them in the comments!

Rimmel Wonder'full Extreme Black Mascara - Superdrug - £7.99

(x)

This isn't the best mascara, although I feel like I'm comparing everything to the Benefit Roller Lash, which is incredible! I just bought this one as a handbag mascara in case I need to top up during the day.

Collection Gorgeous Glow Blush Block - Superdrug - £4.19

(x)

This probably isn't the best blusher available, but I just wanted something simple because what's a Spring look without a bit of blusher?! 

Rimmel ScandalEyes Micro Liner - Superdrug - £5.49

(x)

Even though I'm loving the gel liner, I wanted to buy a felt liner too, just in case I need to get ready quickly because I'm still getting the hang of the gel liner.

Max Factor Colour Elixir Lipstick (Midnight Mauve) - Superdrug - £7.99

(x)  

I love everything about this lipstick! It's a gorgeous colour, it feels really nice on, it lasts for ages, and even the case is gorgeous. I really struggle to find lipstick that I like, so this is a definite winner for me.

Notebooks

TK Maxx - £4.99

Paperchase - £8

(x)

I am so weak when it comes to notebooks. My collection is unbelievable at the moment and I haven't even written in half of them! The curse of being a writer. These were too pretty not to buy though. TK Maxx has some absolutely lovely journals in at the moment!!

So that's everything I've bought in the last couple of days and probably everything I will be buying for a very long time!

Lots of love

I really love this top because it's not too dressy, so I can wear it for a casual drink at the pub, or on a uni night out (which no one gets really dressed up for). I've needed something like this for ages! I just pair it with jeans or dark blue shorts and a nice necklace.

Playsuit - Boohoo - £18

I have a weakness for playsuits and this one is perfect for summer. The material is really light and floaty and the colours are really summery. You can't tell on the picture, but it has bits cut out on the shoulders and it ties at the neck leaving a bit of an open back. I love it!

Dress - Boohoo - £15

(x)

I was a little bit disappointed when this dress arrived because I bought it thinking it would be really nice for summer, but it's actually quite thick material and probably too warm to wear on a hot day. But I do still really like it and it'll be nice to wear on days when there's still a bit of a breeze.

Jeans - River Island - £42

I have wanted some ripped knee jeans for ages and these are perfect! They were a bit more expensive than I'd have liked, but I feel like I can justify spending so much because the quality is amazing and I'll wear them all the time. They are also a perfect fit, which is so rare for jeans!

Cardigan - New Look - N/A

I just think this is absolutely gorgeous! It looks so lovely over a casual outfit and really makes the whole outfit come together. 

Accessories

Sunglasses - New Look - £5.99

Sorry for the bad quality of some of the pictures, my phone camera isn't the best.

Bag - New Look - £12.99

This is really nice for nights out and it's quite big, so it holds everything I need to take with me, including my huge purse! It has a gold strap as well for people who like to carry bags over their shoulder.

Flower crown - New Look - £3.99

I can't find the blue one online. I'm such a huge fan of flower crowns and I'm really glad people are starting to wear them again, They make me feel so happy and ready for summer, they're so cute!

Headband - New Look - £3.99

More flowers!! I bought this on impulse because it's so pretty and it will go with anything, as well as disguise my (quite frequent) bad hair days.

Necklace - Topshop - N/A

This is really cute because it comes with a little lock! I have enough notebooks, but I had a moment of weakness because I love that I can lock it; not that I have anything top secret to write about, but it's a fun idea.

Notepad - WHSmith - £4.49

(x)

Again, I really didn't need to buy this, but I wanted to buy a notepad to start writing down Dutch phrases. My lovely friend from Belgium bought me a book to help me learn Dutch, so I'm definitely going to be using that over summer.

Recipe Book - Paperchase - £10

I've recently started getting a lot more into cooking and I'm going to try eating a vegan diet over summer to see if I notice any health benefits. So I bought this book to start noting down any vegan recipes I want to try.

Make-up

Simple make-up wipes - Superdrug - £1.59

These are the only make-up wipes I ever use. I really like Simple and use a lot of their skin care products and it really has made a massive improvement to my skin. 

Gel liner - Superdrug - £6.99

I've wanted to try gel liner for ages and I used it for the first time today. It's quite hard to get the hang of because it goes on quite thick and I ended up having to redo it twice, but when it goes right it looks really good. It's much darker than pencil or felt liner and less messy than liquid, I really like it.

Lipstick - Superdrug - £5.49

(x)

I haven't tried Kate Moss lipstick yet, but I've heard good reviews, so I thought I'd give it a try. I really love this colour because it's different to all the other colours I have. It's really nice and bright for summer, so I think it's probably going to be a bit of a staple for me!

Eye shadow palette - Superdrug - £14.99

I really like this palette! It has a lot of similar colours to the Urban Decay Naked 3 palette and is really pigmented. I like how it had some shimmery eye shadows and some matte. It's a really useful palette with some really nice nude colours. 

Finally....

I booked to go to Amsterdam with my friend!!

That's everything I've bought recently, but there'll be more to come soon.

What have you been buying lately?

Lots of love
