Cheshire Oaks Designer Outlet Haul



I've just had a lovely two weeks off work and spent the first in Weymouth and the second on an array of  day trips!

I turned 20 a fortnight ago - ahhhh! My chosen treat was to go to Cheshire Oaks :)

Its about an hour and a half away from where I live but the motorway journey was horrific! It felt so long and there were some terrible drivers!

I signed up on-line and received a 10% discount card that you could use in almost all the shops.

Well, onto what I bought :)

First stop - Warehouse

I purchased a top reduced from £30 to £15.


Next - The Cosmetics Company Outlet!

I was really excited to go to The CCO :)


I picked up one of the MAC tins from the Tartan Collection for £27. It contains the Fresco Rose Paint Pot, a lipglass in Budding Romance, Zoomlash Mascara and Pink Split Mineralized Eye-shadow.



Also from Mac, I picked up the Fresh Ice mineralized eye shadow for around £10 from one of the Winter Collections.

Finally - L K Bennett

I don't think that i've ever spent more than around £40 on a handbag until now... :) I switch my handbags up a lot but went to Cheshire Oaks with the aim of finding a designer handbag!
I ventured into Mulberry but decided they were too expensive.


I got the Anna Bag from L K Bennett for £99 after the 10% discount! The saleswoman told me that Pippa Middleton has it which obviously made it more exciting aha. It was reduced from £295! I definitely need to look after it and make it last!

I didn't buy as many things as I expected I would but i'm very pleased with my purchases and would definitely go again! :)

Actually i also bought some kitchen knives but they're not too exciting aha ;)

My Roaccutane Journey

This post is more audience specific than usual but I hope it may be of help to anyone going through a similar situation. I want to give you an insight into my Roaccutane journey as I know I often turned to searching Google for answers. Never did I think i’d be posting this on the internet but here goes...
Onto the back story, I had oily/ combination skin as a teenager and suffered with the usual teenage spots that cleared up as I approached my 20’s. Later, I was on the combined contraceptive pill and decided to take a break from it when I was around 23. I stopped it for 6 months and was hit with a backlash. Stopping the pill and a change in hormones is the only explanation I can put my breakout down to.
My skin broke out significantly. I had courses of Lymecycline prescribed and Zineryt (Zinc & Erythromycin) Topical Lotion. With minimal success from these, I was referred to a dermatologist.

Before all of this, I could probably count the number of times I had left the house without ma…

Top Nail Varnish Picks For Autumn/ Winter

Autumn/ Winter to me means wearing a lot of grey and black with bursts of khaki and burgundy for colour. Literally, if I see anything khaki coloured, i'm in love and now that's transitioned into my nail varnish thanks to last month's Glossybox. 
Here are my current go to nail varnishes, although I did place a Boots order on Cyber Monday for some of the Revlon Gel Envy polishes so there could be some additions to this soon!

Nails Inc Gel Effect Polish in 'Kensington High Street' Sally Hansen Complete Salon Manicure in 'Plums the Word' Color Club Nail Lacquer in 'Barely There' Color Club Nail Lacquer in 'Glossy Seal' Nails Inc London Polish in 'Battersea Park' Color Club Nail Varnishes have a great opaque consistency and you can easily get away with one coat. I actually prefer the regular Nails Inc varnishes over the gel effect ones but I love this burgundy shade. Sally Hansen varnishes have a great brush and this plum colour is perfe…

Statement Necklaces - NEXT

I have been searching for the perfect statement necklaces for so long without success. I'm a bit too fussy you see. The majority of statement necklaces in the shops are gold and it's rare for me to wear gold jewellery; I much prefer silver!

In all the shops i've looked in, there has always been something not quite right: too big, too spiky or the wrong colour. I'd actually given up hunting for one but this morning, I ventured into NEXT.

Next isn't somewhere that I usually go into but I was surprised at how many nice things they have and there were definitely a few that I wanted!

I couldn't choose between the following two necklaces so treated myself to both! They were quite hard to photograph but i've linked the items so you can check out the stock photos on the NEXT website.

Mix Plate And Crystal Effect Statement Necklace £18


Short Crystal Effect Necklace £14



Other items I considered buying:

This grey jewelled clutch bag caught my eye and was £20.
I was reall…
