New Coat and A Big Thank You!

Helloooo guys, 
How is everyone today? I hope you have all had a great half term, I know i have.
So obviously from the title you can tell that this blog is about a new winter coat that I have purchased but before I go on with the blog I just want to say a HUGE thank you to all of you who read my blogs. On Thursday evening I reach 1000 views!!! THAT IS CRAZY!! I never thought so many people would read them. Here is a little cheeky selfie just for you guys <3


So back to the blog. I know you must be thinking 'why have you brought a winter coat when winter is nearly over' I know I know but I have wanted one of these coats for ages and I finally persuaded my mum to get it for me. It was obviously on sale because my mum would have never even thought about it if it wasn't :P 


Here it is. My beautiful Parka coat. It has a fleece lining and a very furry hood. This makes it a very warm and cosy. I also love how it is a deep blue navy color instead of the deep green that everyone seems to have so it is just a little different from the mainstream look. 



The length of the coat is also very good. It stops just above the middle of the thigh. 














The zip goes all the way up to the end of the hood so that it completely encloses around your head. I find this is really good when the wind is high or its just a very cold day. 















This Parka coat is from GAP it cost £34.99 down from £99.99 which is an amazing bargain especially since I have been wanting one of these coats for ages so i was very happy. I tried to find a link for this coat but I don't think they are selling them anymore but here is a link for a similar coat from New Look.

I was wearing this gold and black triangle necklace with a gold chain with my outfit today. From other blogs, you can see that I do love to wear big necklaces. The only problem with this is that they can be quite expensive but i have found a solution to my problem. Primark. I know a lot of people don't like primark because they think the quality of there products are not very good but sometimes you can find real bargains in there. I got this necklace for £3 and i also got two other necklaces. One that was £4 and another which was £3. In other shops like topshop or new look, you would get a necklace like this for £10 and I got three in Primark for £10. I think this is great especially when I wear so many different necklaces. If you haven't been in Primark for a while, go and check it out, because you may find something you love. 

Thank you for reading
And again a huge thank you for the 1000 views
Please keep reading and comment below anything you would like me to blog about <3 Perfect and Sweet forever <3

New Makeup Brushes

Hellooo guys,
How is everyone today? I am sorry this blog is quite late i went to Cambridge today and i was there longer than i thought i would be :P 
So its half term WOOOOOO, so happy i've now got a week to sleep :P ahaa i wish.
I ordered some new real technique brushes the other day and they came so today's blog will be showing you them and what i think about them.


These are the two new brushes that i purchased. The first one on the left is the real techniques Blush Brush and the one on the right is the real techniques stippling brush. The website that i used to order these brushes was feelunique.com. This is a great website and when you sign up you can choice a brand to get 10% off everytime you order of that brand, which of course i love. 


The first brush i'm going to show you is the real techniques stippling brush. This cost me £10.99. I will put the links for the website down below. I used this to apply my foundation. I have read some really good reviews about this brush, saying it is really good if you only want a small/medium coverage on your face. That is all i wanted today because i was only going into town. I also know this brush is very good for lighter foundations like BB creams or creme blushes or bronzers.  











This is the finished coverage after using the stippling brush. I found the brush very easy to use but i did need to finish off areas, around my nose and under my eyes, with a sponge just to get a better coverage. I would definitely recommend purchasing one of these brushes but if you don't want to pay £10.99 for it,I know other brands also do similar ones like this.



The second brush that I purchased was the real techniques blush brush. This brush is one of the softest brushed I have ever felt. It has a very large brush head which is very good for blush products. It is very easy to apply the blush with and i am very happy with my purchase. 


I would recommend this brush to anyone because of how good the coverage is and just how soft it feels on your cheeks. 


This is the finished look. I applied some eyeliner and mascara and a light pink lipstick from Topshop in shade innocent.

Thank you very much for reading.
I hope you enjoyed it and it helped you if you were thinking about purchasing these brushes.
Please keep reading <3
Perfect and sweet <3

MUA lipstick review

Hellooo guys,
How is everyone on this horrible English weather day.
Today is quite an important day I am meeting a lady called Nadia Sacco who owns a cake shop, I'm meeting with her to have a chat about where she went from college and if she has any recommended paths for me to go down. So I am very excited for today but it does mean I don't really have time for a huge blog. I brought two new MUA lipsticks the other day so I am just going to swatch them and show you.

These are the two lipsticks that I brought, the first was a bright pink which was in shade 3 and the second was a deeper pink which was in shade 4. 




The first ill show you is the bright pink, I thought this was a lipstick and it is labeled as a lipstick but once you put it on your lips it is more like a moisturizer lip balm. It leaves a light pink ting to your lips which is good for when you don't want to wear any lipstick but you need a little bit of color. It is also very moisturizing and leaves your lips very smooth.



The second color is the deeper pink which is a great color for a party or a night out. It has a very pigmented formula. It has a very creamy feel to it and moisturizer your lips. The color would be a great one for the summer. 



The one thing I hate when buying lipstick is when the color at the end does not look like the color of the lipstick but MUA puts some of there product in the end so that it is the true color which I love. 

Thank you very much for reading 
I hoped you enjoyed the blog sorry for the shortness.

Valentines Outfit!

Hellooo guys,
I hope everyone has had a good week.
It feels like ages since I last did a blog because I was unable to do one on Sunday, which i am very sorry about :(
Well as we all know Valentines day is coming up and today's blog is an outfit that could give you some ideas about what you could wear on your special date <3

Dress: Quiz. 
Cardigan: Next.
Shoes: TKMaxx.
Necklace: Topshop.
Bracelet: Topshop.


















This is the outfit that I choose to show you. I'm sorry i had to cut my head out of these pictures but my facial expression was just not good. I was half smiling and half looking disgusted for some reason so for your sake i just cut it out. 

The dress is from quiz and I think it was about £30. It is quite thick so it is a good dress for the cold weather we are having at the moment. The cute black bow just gives it extra detail that goes well with the dress and it also goes well with the cardigan and shoes. The cardigan is from next and was £10. It has little ruffled sleeves and has a shimmery look to it. It goes very well with this outfit but if you are going outside you will need to wear a coat over the top of it because it is only a thin layer. This outfit would also go well with a leather jacket. 


My shoes are from TKMaxx and they are by Steve Madden. They cost around £20. If you are looking for some great heels and wedges go and take a look in TKMaxx because they do well know brands but at a lower price. The shoes are a suede black material with a weaved wedge and they go with this outfit very well. These are the most comfortable wedges that I own and i can wear them all night long without my feet hurting which is a bonus because once you feet start hurting its not good for the rest of the evening. 












The bracelet and necklace that I was wearing were both from Topshop and I got them both in the sale!! I think both together only cost £10. BARGAIN!! They are both a golden metal which works really well this the red dress. 















Thank you very much for reading.
I hope this gave you some ideas on an outfit you could wear.
Please keep reading <3

January Favorites!!

Helloooo guys,
Happy 1st of February, i hope you all had a good January.
I have had a very good January and to finish it off i got an offer from my first choice sixth form!! YAY!!
Anyway today's blog is going to be about my January favorites. 


These are my January favorites.
From the left to the right they go...
1. Clynol colour and care silver shampoo.
2. The body shop, cranberry joy shower gel.
3. They're real benefit mascara.
4. MAC dubonnet amplified creme lipstick.
5. Carmex moisturising lipbalm.
6. Nivea pure and natural  regenerating night creme.
7. Nivea oil free moisturising day cream.



This shampoo is amazing! It makes my hair so smooth and silky. It is a deep purple color and the first time I used it i thought it was hair dye :P silly me. My best friend Aideen gave this to me so i am not sure how much it was but i know shampoos that are this big and from a salon are normally very expensive but this is a definite favorite for this month.  


I got this shower gel from the body shop in the sales so it was only £4. It smells sooooo good and it leaves a lovely smell on your skin, where normally these kinds of shower gels do not. I would recommend this shower get to anyone if you like cranberry. This was from the Christmas collection so i don't know if they sell it all the time but i will be definitely repurchasing it. 
 These two moisturizes are for day and night and are amazing for dry skin. I have very oily, dry skin which is a weird combination but these moisturizers work really well for me and if i apply makeup without moisturising i can really tell.  
 This night cream is a much thicker formula than the day cream but it lasts all night long and leaves your skin very smooth. I think it costs about £5.
The day cream has a very thin formula and works well under makeup as a primer.


Benefit makeup is so nice. This mascara makes my eyelashes so long and full. It stays on for ages and always looks like i have just applied it. It costs £19.50 which is expensive but it is an amazing mascara. They do a smaller version which is only £9 if you don't want to spend to much money. 



This has been my favorite lipstick during this cold January month. It is a very deep red which goes with this time of the years fashion. It works well with dark eyes or rosy cheeks. It is by MAC and costs £15. It is in shade Dubonnet. I know MAC can be quite expensive but other brands like rimmel London does very similar colors which are a lot cheaper. 


Ok final favorite product is the carmex moisturising lip balm. This is not just a January favorite it is an all year round favorite. If you do not have ones of these go out to the store right now and buy one. I would not go out of the house if i did not have one of these with me. I own like 6 and they are all just dotted around my room. Once you apply them to your lips you can straight away feel it working. If your lips crack really easily then i would recommend this lip balm to you. They cost about £3. 


Thank you very much for reading i hoped you enjoyed it,

Perfect and sweet <3
