Hellooo Shimmers,
Sorry this is like wayyyy overdue!! But I have been super busy. I absolutely loved Florida and loads of you have asked me to do a haul... So here it is!! Being in America the exchange rate was really good and things were a lot cheaper.
So I think I will start with MAC. And I went in to the MACstore at mall at Millenia and decided on purchasing a summery lipstick thatwould go nice with a tan. And I chose a lipstick called - 'Saint Germain' whichis this gorgeous pink/ purple color and even though my tan has faded thecolour is still gorgeous. Review coming soon!
In America the clothes in Hollister cost the same in dollarsas in pounds. Like if a t-shirt costs £20 then it was $20 so it was way cheaperbuying it out there. So in Hollister I bought a pink vest top which has a bowon the back and it was in the sale for $14.95 (approx.) and lime green shortswhich are such a lovely soft material and they were also $14.95 (approx.!) and the same 1:1 ratio with the prices in Abercrombie and Fitch so i picked up a traditional Abercrombie and Fitch zip up which I love and i am wearing it all the time!! It was $68 which is around the £48. So again cheaper buying it out their.
I absolutely loved Disneyland and it was by far my favouritepart of the holiday and where I spent some of my money! I picked up a Disney MinnieMouse Pen, 2 pins Eeyore for me and Minnie for my friend for our blazers, andalso a keyring for one of my other friends. The parks were spectacular sofriendly and just such a great atmosphere and buzz it was amazing and a realhighlight of the holiday.
In Bloomingdales I spent quite a lot but could have spent an awful lot more!! Bloomingdales is very well known for their "Brown Bags" and so this is the first of my purchases and I actually bought two of these! One for me one for a friend... The "Little Brown Bag" and its like a little purse/keyring and I intend on using it for my keys. These were $10 each which is a little costly but the big ones were really expensive! But as I said I made another purchases which I will show you later in the haul cause it was my favorite buys of the holiday!!
This was random but I was having a browse and spotted it and had to have it!! It was a Simply Citrus hand sanitizer by Bath and Bodyworks and I also bought a little case for it which is fluorescent pink with a diamanté Eiffel Tower which is so adorable and all together that came to $4.50 (approx.) The hand gel was $1.50 and the case around $3?!
I love this buy its one of my fav but THE fav! And we went to an outlet center and they had a guess outlet store and when I saw the purse I fell in love with it. Its a gorgeous white Guess purse with diamanté detailing which I am having an obsession with at the moment! I think it was around $25 which isn't to bad!
I have never had anything from Forever XX1 (21) before but have seen it in magazines. I went to one in Mall at Millenia which by the way had a cheesecake factory and oh the cheesecake is to die for! So yeah in Forever 21 I purchased earrings gold ones with pink and mint detailing. I also bought a top... Which I forgot to photograph.. Why? I have no idea!! But anyway it is fluorescent pink and says love is free on it. I'm not sure how much it came to around $30 I think.
My primark sunglasses lasted so well but broke on the second last day so bought these at Universal. I love these sunglasses there super cute and really suit my face. They have a slight round frame with an animal sort of print pattern on the frame. And they were $15.
I bought this bracelet in Disney simply because it stands for everything I believe in. On one side it reads "Nothing is impossible" and on the other "...If you believe" and I think this is an really important message to believe in yourself and to reach for your dreams because they are possible. And to never give up hope.
Another pen! This time from Busch Gardens. I liked it cause it was purple fluffy and had a dangly tiger!! That sounds a bit wierd but it does!! Its just one of these little souveniers which I seem to buy...Pens?!
Now for my favorite buy of the holiday from Bloomingdales a .... "little neon bag" !! How adorable is this? It's super cute and I love it I think I am going to use it as a lunch bag at school, because it stands out its that sort of washable/wipedown material so perfect to keep my lunch in!. It's so quirky and a bit different from their usual Brown Bag. This bag was $25 which isn't to bad and I will get plenty of use out of it for sure.
