HAUL // BARCELONA MAKE UP

As some of you may know I went away to Barcelona at the end of July. I had an incredible time and obviously managed to get some shopping in too. The first place was obviously Duty Free. I already had in mind what I was going to buy so was over the moon to find that YSL Parisienne was on offer with a free body lotion with it. I've mentioned in a post before but I love perfume but always find ysl really expensive in stores so snapped up the opportunity in Duty Free. When we arrived in Barcelona we went around our local shopping centre and came across Sephora, I've never been to Sephora before and they've just recently started shipping to the UK so I was like a kid in a sweet shop when I was looking around. I first bought a powder and Sephora brush and decided to see how much money I had left at the end of my holiday and bought Make Up Forever HD foundation (oh my god it's absolutely amazing, never going back!) And finally I bought these lipsticks on the plane home. Four Rimmel lipsticks for £9.60, considering one usually retails for £5.49 I think I got myself a bargain, my favourite one is 08, perfect nude lipstick!

OOTD // 12.08.14

      

Kimino - H&M

Playsuit - H&M

Sunglasses - River Island

Boots - New Look

Hat - H&M 

Stylish Kids has had a little makeover. My style over the last month has changed so I thought it was only fair that my blog changed too. The weather today is terrible so this outfit is from last week - Cheating I know. 

I feel a little bit stuck with my blog right now but I am so determined to put in a lot more effort with it and focus more on personal style and fashion (however I do have a beauty post coming up haha)

Hope you are all well!

A LONG OVERDUE UPDATE

I haven't posted in over a month and I'm so gutted I have not being able to as I had so many ideas for over summer but I managed to get myself a new job at New Look. It all happened so fast as I basically handed my cv, bagged myself an interview that night and got a call saying I got the job a day later. I'm really enjoying myself the now although I was pretty nervous at the start I am getting a lot more confident and looking forward to learning loads of new things (if you didn't know I study retail management at college so it is great to get a real insight into the industry). Obviously for the past two weeks or so Glasgow held the commonwealth I didn't have any tickets myself and was on holiday for the majority of it but can safely say town was crazy for two weeks but it was pretty nice to see. 

Apart from working I also managed to jet away to Barcelona for a couple of days at the end of July. I have loads of ootd pictures and also a haul to write up about my time there but I absolutely loved it and would definitely go back. It's an absolute beautiful city and I am so glad we got to pack so much into our four days there. 

And finally yesterday I celebrated my 20th birthday. I'm no longer a teenager, it's so strange. I'm working all this week so haven't had a proper chance to properly celebrate but I have arranged a night out with my friends at the weekend which shall be fun. 

So I have spent my summer basically working, eating tapas & drinking sangria. Not too bad I'd say. What did you get up to this Summer? I've going to getting myself into a wee routine with the good old blog so keep a look out this week and follow on me  twitter and blog lovin for updates.
