OOTD & A Little Haul ♥

I hope everyone has had a good Bank Holiday Monday!
I sure have (: Every bank holiday monday since i was about 5, me, my mum and dad have always, without fail gone to the seaside...
Today we woke at the crack of dawn and drove off to the beautiful town of Whitby, the home of Dracula!
The weather was really sunny and quite warm, perfect! (...it was really windy near the shore though!)
Heres what i wore today...

(...Warning, ive bee lazy and havnt applied my St Moritz the past couple of weeks, so im looking more than a bit pasty!)

Black bodycon skirt - Topshop
Leggins - New look
Floral crop shirt - Topshop
Cream dolly shoes - H&M
Mulberry bag

Accesories - Disney couture & Pandora.


I love the shops at whitby, it's full of cute cake shops, fudge shops and lots of vintage one-off shops full of lovely girlie unique clothes and accesories.
Unfortunatly its so overpriced and i'm a poor student, so the only items of clothing and accesories i got was this pretty denim skirt and these two rings:


I LOVE the skirt, Sadly its a tad too big, the smallest size they had is was a size 10 and i need an 8...So, im going to try and adjust the size with my 'amazing' sewing techniques! haha
It cost £25. eeek.
The rings were super cheap at only £2.99 each, I'm in love with the mint green rose (:
All purchased from a 'one off' a shop called 'Ruby Tuesday'.

I then headed onto boots, I cant walk past a boots without going in!
I got:

Barry M Mushroom,
Barry M Raspberry - 2 for £5!
No7 Queenie - £6.79
Rimmel Pink blush - £4.49

I thaught id stock up on darker polishes ready for winter and Queenie really caught my eye, its a very dark berry purple with a slight silver shimmer. Gorgeous, i really recommend checking it out.
I got Pink Blush lippie due to the fact its said to be a dupe for Mac's Viva Glam Gaga, its a very pale barbie pink, very lovely.

Now i'm going to go and stuff my face with the whitby home made dark chocholate fudge that i got, yum!

Whats in my...Basket? ♥

...all 4 of my makeup drawers look like this:

a mish mash of everything all jumbled up and in the mornings it took me an extra 10 minutes looking for things, it just wasnt working for me!
But now ive found something that workes wonderfully. A BASKET, Not any old bastket, a pretty blue floral one ofcourse...

Ive tried a makeup bag...but everythings piled up together and i'm always scared of things smashing and cracking, like delicate MSF's...Makeup isnt cheap y'know.
I still store everything in the drawers, but keep my staples in the basket.
Its so easy now to locate everything and i just swich some products around a couple of times a week depending on what blush i feel like wearing or foundation.

Lets have a peak inside:
So, its just my basic everyday items.

The best thing is...it folds away! So when i go on holiday, i can just fold this up and throw it in my bag.

it costs £1.99 from Dunelm.
Go get yourself one (;
