Let's catch up...

I'm back in Essex (home) today. I have spent the week "up north" visiting family and shopping toooo much, but i had no internet access, so sorry for my lack of posts!

^^ This is where i have been- Durham and Newcastle.
I went shopping in Newcastle city centre for the first time & loved it. Its set out like London, but has a completley different vibe; some really good shops.
This is the only makeup i picked up. On the right is the Sleek Storm Palette, which i love! The colours are so pigmented & some have a shimmer, which looks really lovely. With 10% student discount i picked it up in Superdrug for £5.50, bargain. This blush caught my eye at a makeup stall in Newcastle. For £1.99 its pretty good, the colour is lovely for the summer.

(I wasn't planning to do a sleek review, as I've seen loads. But if you want to see one let me know and i shall do one!)

As my mum said "anotherrrr ring?". It was in the Topshop sale for £3.50 & there was only one left, so i had to.

I bought a few more bits too, but i'll save them for outfit posts and things.
Sorry for the short post, i have a tonne of revision & last nights Dr. Who to catch up on eeeek! (geek) :-)

the palette looks lovely and I adore your ring. At £3.50 it would be a crime not to buy it!

Ooo. That's a really cool ring! Does it bother your ring finger wearing it?

Wanna follow each other? I believe in good karma!
