Oliver Bonas






Last week I went into Oliver Bonas in Brighton Laines to have a browse at their jewelry selection. Fortunately, or unfortunately for my bank balance they had these two gems in store. After far too long deliberating and one exasperated boyfriend later I decided to buy both.
Oliver Bonas is a stunning shop. It boasts a lovely homeware, clothing and accessories collection. It is also the perfect shop for buying special gifts for loved ones. 

These bracelets are both beautiful pieces and as they are gold plated, they should last a long time without much discoloration.

The Brighton Laines are a great place to mooch for a lazy afternoon or special weekend. There is so much to do and see. Jammed with quirky cafes, independent shops and a lively, friendly atmosphere.

Watch out for a Go to Guide on the Brighton Laines coming soon.

September Beauty Haul













Recently I went up to London on a day trip with bae and whilst exploring I picked up a few things from Boots and H&M. 


The H&M beauty range is pretty impressive. It is inexpensive, very 'instagramable' and from what I have sampled so far, boasts some lovely beauty products.  
The highlight for me has to be the overwhelming number of nail polishes to choose from. It is great to have so many shades of one colour, perfect for finding the right one to match any outfit. 
I definitely think H&M could give the Topshop range some serious competition. 

Also whilst in London I picked up a new foundation. I am yet to try Rimmel Wake Me Up, however I hope it will give me the dewy finish I am after to brighten up my skin as the months get colder and my skin gets dryer.
To help re hydrate my skin I also picked up a new daily moisturizer from Origins.
Origins is my go to brand for skincare currently and it has yet to disappoint. It has really helped to plump my tired skin and of course, as all Origin products do, it smells incredible. Although, reasonably pricey, a little goes a very long way.

Please let me know if you have questions on the products I have bought during my trip.
There will be some more posts to come so watch this space closely!
