REVIEW; Estee Lauder Skin tone Illuminator.


(rrp; £46)


i got a few sachets of this skintone illuminator as i do really love products such as this estee lauder product; im a fan of primers so when i was given these samples i was dying to try them out. ive used them for a few days now and they make your skin feel so soft, ive never used estee lauder products because they are really expensive but with this product a little goes along way and i can see why it is so expensive ; id say the 50ml bottle would last about a year. its a really lovely formula, its shiny and applies to the skin really nice.

i think i have actually fell in love with this and would love to try more estee lauder products; the only problem for me is the price tag, i would happily pay the price but i am looking to book a holiday and im going to paris so i dont really have the money to spend on skintone illuminators

has anyone else tried this or even forked out the £46 for it?

REVIEW; tesco loafers.





(tesco loafers: £10)

look familiar?  thats right they are the shoes you wanted from topshop but they were £28. these shoes only cost me £10 from the tesco clothing website and if you live near a tesco you can have them delivered there for you to pick up for FREE! otherwise its a £3.95 charge.  still cheaper than topshop, who only have one size left in these shoes.

the quality is really good - they fit nicely and look great on :)

if you think out it the material is like suede so once you wear them in our british weather they wouldnt last too long so would you rather spend £10 or £28? i know which i would rather spend for the same shoes.


they are near identical- i know some people are lable snobs and would much rather be wearing a topshop shoe than a tesco one but once its on your foot who knows where its from?

let me know what you think?

get online now to tesco clothing and order a pair today

(top; topshop shorts; internationale)


i really love these shorts; the suns been out so i decided to pop them on :) i think they are an item in my wardrobe that i could wear in so many different ways.

february glossy box

this is my final glossy box as i have decided to unsubscribe- i was going to unsubscribe after the christmas box but when they announced the suprise valentines box i had to stay and see what they had in store - honestly i loved the valentines box but this months wasnt even anywhere near as good as last months.








heres what i got in my box this month, the DuWop lipgloss and the Paul Mitchell hair smoothing treatment is all that really interests me although i really dislike the taste of the lipgloss so most likely wont even use it and hair treatments make my hair greasy - i am yet to try this product but cant see me using it. the eyeshadow is green - a shade i dont think anyone uses anymore. why would i need a 18 in 1 liquid soap and the lotion skinks. all in all really not impressed. ive had a few people asking me about glossy box recently and i have been really negative in this post i would reccomend recommend reading my previous posts; i have done 5 glossy box posts now they do have there ups and downs, i think this is the worst box so far but i just cant afford to spend £12.95 a month on products im not using - id rather buy one product that i will use.

i know glossy box is a samples box but im not even using the samples. in previous boxes there has been items that i LOVE but this box really didnt do it for me and thats why ive unsubscribed.

leave any comments reguarding glossy box below :)

pancake day




today i have been visiting some art galleries. yesterday i dropped my iphone in a cup of tea and its broken i knew getting out of the house would be a good way to make me forget about my iphone for abit and get out and see some exhibitions to put in my uni logbook. me and daniel visited eastside birmingham which was closed (gutted) but it meant we got to walk through custard factory which is really nice. we visited the birmingham ikon gallery which had 3 good exhibitions on, one which was all text and big writing and another which a sculpture artist and postcards from japan by tohnoku artists, all these exhibitions are mensioned on there website and would really reccomend you see it ( just let me know if you wanna see any pictures) we then visited walsall new art gallery which always has good exhibitions on, its actually showing an exhibtion which my uni tutor is part of so it was nice to see his work.

happy pancake day me and daniel went to this little pancake place and i had lemon drizzle and a scoop of ice cream - not just any ice cream MARSHMELLOW ice cream and dan had toblerone ice cream - had such a lovely day and kinda forgot about my phone for abit. (anyone who has an iphone 4 will know they rely 100% on that phone)

do you like these pictures of me out and about - would you like to see more of this?

splurge or save #1


i am one of those people that absolutely love finding little bargains, especially if they look like a highstreet brand like topshop. i love these loafers which are £28 on topshop but i really cant just justify spending nearly £30 on a pair of shoes that are not going to last very long,

for £10 you could buy like 3 pairs of shoes for the price you would have spend in topshop.  which ones would you buy, if you think about it you cant even tell where they are from when they are on your feet.


a little heads up: if you follow me on twitter you will know that me being me ( REALLY CLUMSY) i have broken my iphone 4 (dropped it in a cuppa tea) wahh wahh wahh so yeah wont be tweeting as much and it may take a while for me to reply to blog comments as i wont get emails and wont know about them wahhh. shouldnt effect my blogging tho.

every girl needs some fur




(coat: forever 21, shirt; h&m leggins; river island. )


for those of you that follow me on twitter you will know i NEEDED a leopard print fur coat well... i got one and its such a funny story of how i came to own it.
i've been looking on ebay, twitter, peoples blog saless and just none of them were right or of the right price. i found one that i loved and got into the bidding war but it went past £40 and i just wasnt willing to pay that much so anyway i was having a general conversation with my little sister about the matter and she was like OH laura has a fur coat ... a leopard one that she never wears anyway i tried it on and fell in love with it and after all the searching i found THE ONE and i bought it for £25 :Dwell happy and i love it

this week i was invited to a midlands blogger meet by rebecca and lucie are organising. It will be in birmingham and they are really trying to finalise numbers before they plan much. if anyone is interested just get in touch with myself or the girls and we will add you to thelist. all the london bloggers do it so its about time we got to have a bloggers meet also if you have any ideas about what we should do ect then let us know.

thats all really ive had such a long weekend been working and went to see two door cinema club last night so pretty knackered; might go and watch a film before bed.
