Jewellery Haul | Kukee

Heyy!

So I recently discovered an online jewelley shop called Kukee. I know I may be really late but I'm just happy I found it :) They sell gorgeous jewellery for a very decent price. I've seen some of the things they sell in high street shops for a lot more, so if there is something that you wanted to buy but the price held you back, definitely check Kukee out! I only found out about them 3 weeks ago and I've already ordered from them twice!

 Above the knuckle rings - £1.50 each

Aztec knuckle ring - £3 

Skull bangle - £3.50 

Skull ring - £2 

Studded spike necklace (gunmetal) - £4 

Spike stud earrings (antique gold) - £2

 Nails: Park Ave by NYC

I've worn almost all of them already and I can't wait to mix and match them up!
They offer worldwide delivery (prices shown on the website), and free worldwide delivery for orders over £40. When I ordered my items I received a free knuckle ring for ordering over £10 and now you get a free pair of feather earrings. UK delivery is £2.20 and takes 3-6 days (I got mine within 5).

Hope you enjoyed this haul :)

Africa Fashion Week London - 4th August 2012

Hi guys!

During the weekend I attended the Africa Fashion Week (AFW). This was my first time hearing about it and therefore my first time going. It was held in Spitalfields Market in London where there were many stalls selling hand made african inspired wear including dresses, blazers, shoes, bags and many more!
They also had a fashion show, which didn't include as much African clothing as I thought it would but did have a lot of beautiful pieces.
There was a huge turnout in quite a small area but other than the restricted movement space I had a good time. It was great to see so many African prints that I had grown up with used to make different styles of clothing.

New In: Blue Suede Shoes

Hello!

I bought these heels about 2 weeks ago and I've been in two minds about them ever since. Obviously, I liked them once which was why I bought them, but after a while I felt they made my feet look funny. So, I decided I was going to return them. But on the day I was going to return them I thought I'd try them on one last time and guess what? They looked amazing! I don't know if it was because they knew I wanted to return them or something but they stepped their game up and I love them again hahaa.

By the way, some of you who follow my sister may remember her posting them, but I'd just like to say I saw them first, I bought them first and she copied me! :)

OOTD | Lunch date

Happy August everyone!

I can't believe how fast time has gone! We're in the heart of summer and it's grey, cold and wet outside :(
However, a couple of weeks ago we were lucky enough to have a few days of good weather and I'd like to share with you what I wore to meet up with a couple of friends I hadn't seen in a while.
We went to Wagamama which is a Japanese restaurant. It was my first time going there and I really enjoyed it. We all found it very interesting that it was a Japanese restaurant and none of the people who worked there were Japanese, hmmm...

Anyway! :)

Maybe it's Maybelline!

Hello all!
Mascara is a must have item in my makeup bag. I love how it makes my eyes pop, such a small amount makes a big difference. I've gone through many over the years and currently my favourite is Maybelline. So, I'm going to share with you the two that I've fallen in love with and one that I've just started using.

Colossal Volum' Express

This was the first Maybelline mascara I bought and by far my favourite out of the three. I love that it's waterproof that's a must in whatever mascara I buy, you never know what you might come across during the day. I also love the size and shape of the brush, I found it very easy to use against my eyelashes. I've purchased this mascara twice and I will most definitely buy it again. I have semi-long lashes anyway and this mascara accentuates them as well as making them look fuller. After a while it does get a bit clumpy but it's usually around the time you're supposed to change it anway so it's understandable.

Colossal Volum' Express Cat Eyes

My second Maybelline mascara and another favourite. For me, it does what it says on the tin, it gives my eyelashes a cat-like look, while making my lashes look longer. The shape of the wand helps enormously with this and again is very easy to use. Unfortunately, it isn't waterproof but while using it I didn't have any problems with it running. And a plus to that it was very easy to remove.

The Falsies Volum' Express

This is the mascara I'm currently using and I haven't used it that long so this is a two week review. Firstly, it's waterproof which is great. However, I'm not a fan of the shape of the wand, it is similar to that of the cat eyes mascara but it's a lot thicker (that's not shown well in the photo, apologies). Again, I have just started using it but I find it very awkward to use. Maybe with time I'll be able to perfect it and I'll try to update this.

 

 

What is your favourite mascara and is there any you think I should try? Let me know! xo
