The Handbag Essentials

Happy long weekend guys and gals! I am so thankful we have an extra day off, so much work to do! The other day on the way to work, I was going through my bag and inside I have a little pouch. This little but rather large pouch contains all the essentials, I take this from bag to bag and switch up small items every now and then. My handbag is a whirlwind half the time, you could get lost in there but this keeps me on track. 

If Money Was No Object

The sun keeps gracing us with its presence and I am not prepared at all. My wardrobe is still full of jumpers and leggings, my makeup is still all deep toned and heavy. It is now time for a refresh and update to everything and anything. Wishlists aren't something I usually post but something inspired me to take all my browsing history over the past few days into a post and talk about what has been on my eye. 

The Must Have Tarte Maneater Collection

The shopping channels do not get enough credit in my opinion, they have some amazing deals available. QVC are a channel that need to be shouted about more, they stock brands such as The Ordinary, Benefit and more! Last week, I spotted on their facebook that they are giving customers an exclusive deal. This deal included a range of products from the one and only Tarte, who are a difficult brand to get your hands on here in the UK. This weeks special deal from QVC is a 7 piece set at only £43.96 (RRP £60), yep you read it right all this Tarte goodness for under £50 and if you opt for the easy installments option like me, you only pay £10 a month compared to the full payment. 

Tarte has been on my radar for a while now, so getting this bargain of a deal was a no brainer! I will be revewing everything in more depth over time, but for now here is what you can pick up in the set.  

Bloggers Made Me Buy It

One thing that blogging has done for me, is a give me a negative credit card balance - all the damn time. Every time a blogger raves about something or a few bloggers share photos on instagram of a product it just has to be mine. Half the things in my makeup collection are blogger enabled so it is no surprise that my collection is so large, I think the power and influence bloggers/youtubers have is incredible. I've received such lovely messages in the past, saying that they're loving a product upon my recommendation. That is the best feeling in the world! I've tried to narrow down to the products that were mainly influenced by bloggers and here's what we have..
