Hey Guys,
I hope you are all having a good day.
I know I have been away for a little while - my life has been a little hectic recently with school.
But today I have a haul for you.
So a while ago I went to Dublin shopping with my mam, sister & my best friend. It was such a cute little day out. For so long, I have been wanting to have a day in Dublin solely dedicated to shopping.We devised a plan to start with the shops that we didn't have in Galway, first.
Starting with ..
Forever 21
When I saw this jumper the inner nerd in me screamed out. I have always had a bit of a soft spot for William Shakespeare since coming across his work at school. The jumper has a quote from Hamlet which consequentially I am currently studying. I have never seen anything like this before & I think its really unique. I can already tell that I will be living in this during Autumn & Winter.
Grey Mock Neck T-Shirt
I have actually been wearing this a lot recently I really like how it looks with a green army jacket. Its so easy to just throw on & run out the door. I've also been really liking mock necks recently.
Bar Necklace
I have been on the hunt for a necklace like this for a while & was so happy when I saw it in Forever21. If you read my last favourites you will know that I have recently gotten into wearing necklaces.The chain its self is a silver colour and the bar is gold. I like how simple & versatile this piece is & I can wear it with either silver or gold jewellery. If you are looking for reasonably priced jewellery I defiantly recommend Forever21. It was a struggle not to buy everything in sight.
Boots
I have heard a lot about this concealer & it's been on my list of 'beauty products I want to try' for quiet some time now. I was looking at pictures of my last night out with the girls & realised that my under-eyes were waaayyy too bright. So what better excuse then to pick up this Maybeline one. I have only tried it out once or twice but already I have noticed that it looks much better. I do only
have one complaint & that is there were only 3 colours available to choose from.
Penneys/Primark
Originally I was going to repurchase Sugar Coat by Wet & Wild which is a light pink shade. But I think they might have changed the formula because everywhere I have looked it is now an off white colour. Its was one of my favourite shades so that's annoying. But while I was at the Wet & Wild stand I saw this purple/plum colour & thought it was be a nice shade for Autumn.
Lush
This was my first time in Lush since I was 11. So needless to say I was very excited. I knew I wanted to get a facemask but I hadn't a clue which one. After talking to an employee about my skin she recommended the Castrophe Fresh Facemask. I have been trying it out over the last while & at first I didn't notice much difference. But after continuous use it calm down my blemish prone forehead &
really moisturised my skin. I just wish there was a Lush near me so I could repurchase this.
Easons
I have been waiting for Conors book to come to Ireland since the book was released in the USA. I finally found it in Easons after checking about 20 times
I haven't gotten around to reading it yet but it is very ascetically pleasing.
If you don't know Conor Franta he is a 23 year old Youtuber & and this book is written by him based on his life so far. Including themes of sexuality, body image & fame on Youtube.
If you guys didn't know Nixie-Pixie made the longlist for The 2015 Blog Awards Ireland for the 'Best Youth Blog' & 'Best Beauty Blog' categories. I honestly didn't expect to make the list & I am very grateful to anyone who has ever read or commented on this little blog.
You da best!
Anyway, I hope you enjoyed this guys, let me know what you have recently bought or tried out.
Have a good weekend!
Love always,
Nixie xx
I'm going to Dublin next week and I really want to check out Lush (I've never been!) I don't like baths though so I don't want to get a bath bomb haha. I think the skincare sounds great so might give it a try, also - the shower gels! I'll probably just end up smelling everything haha :P x
