Bag Collection ; Summer Crossbody's

Out of all the bag styles I've tried, i think cross body bags are definitely on my top favourites list.

Especially for spring/summer! they're just so much more convenient to carry around, plus they look so effortless and cute.

So here are my favourites :

Rebecca Minkoff Mini Mac.

i love what a pop of colour this bag is. its 100% my go to bag this summer.

all my clothes are more or less neutral colours, so literally just adding this bag onto my outfit makes it so summer ready. i love it so much!

Studded crossbody from Forever 21 

I know, who is crazy enough to own 2 of the same bag?

well , heres the thing, i first bought the black one for mai , and i loved it so much (she was leaving the country)i bought the white one because they didnt have black.

On her recent trip back, because she knows how much i love the black one, she left it for me to use .

Satchel Crossbody, forever 21.

My little sister got me this bag for my birthday . 

i love this one when I'm feeling preppy. 

as well as when i need my iPad with me, it fits inside so nicely with so much room left.

Mint Green cross body, Mango.

I got this bag last summer, and honestly , despite wearing it soooo much, i will certainly keep wearing this one this year. 

Mint Green is just so lovely.

Gold/Silver Crossbody, Free from Maybelline.

I like this bag for those night outs , it matches everything and i feel like its quite summery.

I'm not a fan of metallics but this one is a good clutch !

Closet Confidential Tag!

This tag was created by Fleur De Force here, i thought it was quite nice, so i decided to finally give it a go.

Newest item in your closet :

Shirt from Pull & Bear

I know its not exactly a massive purchase, but its so soft and light weight,  i love it so much for the summer with some jeggings.

also, I've never owned anything with a picture printed on it , so this is quite different.

Oldest item in your closet: 

Black converse i purchased in my visit to london in 2011!

i still wear them almost daily though and i love them!

Most Expensive item in your closet:

this CH bag is certainly the most expensive item i have in my closet.

i got this as a graduation gift from my dad a few years ago, and I'm happy to say it still looks like its in perfect condition. i don't wear this one too often (in fear of ruining it) but it definitely is a unique/different looking bag and the fact i can wear it in 2 ways, so beautiful! 

Cheapest/Most affordable item in your closet (that you were so much)

i wear those tank tops from forever 21, everyday of my life.

I'm one of those people that just can't wear a shirt without a lightweight tank underneath..

my stomach always gets too cold! haha

they're so comfy though. and i would totally recommend them to anyone looking for cheap but good tanks!

Best bargain in your closet :

It was so hard for me to think of my best bargain but i think this is it.

I got this bag for about 50-75% off from Charles and Keith, last year.

I love charles and keith, and every time they're on sale, i can't help but buy me a cheeky little purchase.

their bags are so durable, and so cute! and when they're on sale. i can't resist.

it folds in , and can also be worn on the shoulder, and with the 2 zippers on top, it really gives that prada-ish bag feel.

Biggest waste of money in your closet:

As much as i looovvveee these boots, it was such a waste of money, considering I've literally only ever worn them once. 

also , i feel like they're a bit too edgy for me now , but i think they'd be pulled off with the right outfits..

sadly i forgot i lived in the hottest climate ever when i bought these!

Bonus Question ; 3 Favourite items right now:

Im currently loving those 3 items.

This mango white shirt, fits so loosely and nice, and the fact that the material is of that sheer silky type, it can dress up any outfit with a simple statement necklece and look like you've put in effort.

 American Eagle jeggings.

seriously, if you've not tried jeggings from American Eagle, then i seriously recommend you try a pair! they're wayyyy too comfy! and look like proper jeans.

This denim jacket with floral details from forever 21.

I tag all of you reading to give this tag a go and link me your blogs in the comments so i can check them out :)

Have a nice day :)

A SUMMER HAUL!

So I think it's time I make one of those "haul" posts , because I love seeing what other people bought and also I'm excited with the new things I got !

First off , new look was having a massive 3 day only random sale. So I went ahead :') 

I got 3 basic tops that each had their own unique feature .

Each top was on sale for 5.5$

LOVE ROLLED UP SLEEVES!

It opens !!

The black shirt just had some colourful spots that look interesting!

Then I got me some shorts :D 

on sale for 14$

(Not gonna lie they were Men's) ... (HEY! I like the way they look :c ) .. Also I don't think you should be judged on what you want to wear.. I like my shorts baggy and a bit longer than normal girl shorts , I think it's okay :) ?

Moving on 😅... 

on sale for 10$

I filled it up to show how pretty it looks! (comes in white and subtle pink) 

It also has a secret pocket in the back to hide secret stuff *shhh*

AND MY FAVOURITE! 

A neon pink NERD ONESIE! HOLLA.

full price 33$

I know it's summer and heat but honestly I'm all for buying now and waiting till it's colder because how do you say no to something so cute?!

Okay enough new look I say.

Moving on to forever 21 

I got those cute cute boot-ish shoes I guess ?

I know .. Summer... But they're so cute :c 

shoes : 36$

I also got this pretty dress that I already featured in an OOTD Here :)

dress : 22$

Then I went to topshop , I'm not a regular topshop buyer , just because overpriced, but I managed to find some shoes on sale that were lovely ( even not on sale they weren't that badly priced )

on sale for 22$ 

I then entered the wonderful world of Zara;

shorts : 9.50$
Personally I wear those at home but hey up to you :D

And also omg PROBABLY THE BEST THING EVER !!!

okay it was 99$ but i swear its so worth it!

 I finally got the Zara city bag! Ahhhh I can't explain how excited I am to start using this when i go back for university !

I reviewed it Here btw!

After Zara, I checked out accessorise , I'm not a huge fan because there stuff aren't so me but I got my hands on this pretty wristlet that I love! 

It's perfect, it has 3 card slots, a coin purse , a middle compartment that fits the iPhone 5 perfectly (with no case) 

The bigger compartments can fit even a Samsung S3 :D and iPhone with case!

I mainly love it because for it's price it delivers!

(Came in other colours too)

it was for 25$

And FINALLY I also got this bag from Charles & Keith because 

1. Sale (it was for 68$ with 50% sale) .. And 

2. Pretty dupe of the prada isn't it?

It's not as orangey as the picture I promise its a prettier orange :D

PS; those things were bought in very very many occasions , not all at once . Except the new look stuff. I'm guilty for them.
