Laine Blogger Award






The Rules:
Tag the blogger who awarded you.
Answer the 5 questions below.
Award 5 more bloggers the Laine Blogger Award.

Well here's something a little different! I actually have another one of these type of things to do - so expect another post like this next week!

Thanks so much to Nicola for awarding me the Laine Blogger Award! She's so sweet and if you aren't following her you should definitely check out her blog!

1. What is your current beauty obsession?
It's definitely eyeshadow. I seem to constantly be looking for new eyeshadow palettes, if I let myself I'd have every one from MUA and Sleek, as well as Stila, TooFaced and Urban Decay if I had the money! Even though so many of the shades are exactly the same... I still feel like I need more!

2. What is one beauty item you wish you owned?
The Dior Diorskin Airflash Spray Foundation! It seems so easy to apply and get even coverage, which is a problem I have - I always wind up with uneven patches when I use a sponge or brush. Hopefully some cheaper brands will come out with their own spray foundations soon.

3. What is your favourite post to read or write about?
I like writing the Weekly Wants posts, because it's a great excuse to look at clothes and make-up that I can't afford (more than I already do). I also like reading other peoples wishlists for inspiration, and I like reading reviews on products, because it really helps me decide whether I want to invest it a product or not.

4. What inspired you to become a blogger?
Well I've been a music blogger for quite some time, and as I'm doing a journalism degree the more writing I do on a daily basis the better. I love watching beauty 'gurus' on youtube and reading beauty/fashion blogs so I thought I may as well try my hand at it too!

5. What nail polish are you wearing now?
Barry M Clear Nail Hardener and then Sally Hansen French Manicure on my tips - I'm not very impressed with it to be quite honest - next time I want a french manicure look I'll have to go to a salon.

Weekly Wants #2

Is it really friday already? Wow! So keeping on schedule, it's time for my second Weekly Wants post, all the stuff I've fallen in love with over the past 7 days and wish I could afford!


Oversized chunky knit cardigan - Glamorous, £44.99
Oh I'm so excited seeing all the Autumn clothes coming into stores! I love big cardigans and the aztec style pattern on this one would be great to just throw on over a plain outfit.

Cross embellished skater dress - Missguided, £26.99
You can never have too many black dresses and this one is just too cute, I love the floaty skirt and the cross detail on it just rocks it up a little bit - the cross trend seems to be here to stay and I don't mind at all.

Neon flats - H&M £12.99
Now these I am going to have to buy, I absolutely love the neon pop trend and they will brighten up any all black or dark coloured outfit.

Primed and poreless powder - Toofaced £22.00
I've heard a lot about this powder and I definitely want to try it out once my Maxfactor Creme Puff powder is finished.

Paco Robanne Black XS - Fragrance Direct £32.99
Anyone who knows me, knows that this is my go to perfume and I'm gutted that my latest bottle has run out. I can't currently afford a new bottle so I'm living with a tiny sample and the body lotion until my birthday!

Weekly shopping total - £139.96
Not as high as last week - I've improved my budgeting! I'll definitely be getting the neon flats next time I'm around H&M and the cardigan might have to come out when the weather gets cooler again.

I hope you like my weekly wants - let me know yours in the comments below or chat to me on twitter!
