payday wishlist



I told myself recently that I need to stop spending money. I tell myself the same thing frequently. It never happens. Never ever. But that's okay, because, I do really need all these stuff, and payday is on Friday, and it's perfectly acceptable to treat myself... Of course it is!

I went into Hoopers yesterday with Jordan, did a bit of make-up shopping, Jordan somehow managed to spend a hell of a lot of money on 4 Chanel items. Oops! Worth it though! I went to the Estee Lauder counter, where the girl was so bloody lovely. I had recently tried out Double Wear, which is a bit different for me. Now, I'm all for full coverage, that's me down to a T, but I've always been slightly wary with DW due to the fact that I've seen people wearing it and look incredibly cakey. However, blended in nicely with the Real Techniques buffing brush, this looks really lovely, and I just love the longevity of it, and how it lasts all day. Perfect for me. I got matched to the shade 'Desert Beige', so definitely picking this up on Friday.

Really wanting the CHANEL Soleil De Tan after using Jordan's, I'm completely sold on the beautiful product and just know that I need this in my life too. I think I might just have to wander to the CHANEL counter after picking up the Estee Lauder Double Wear. More on make up, is the Laura Mercier Tinted Moisturiser. I've seen a lot of people rave about this, and I've been intrigued by this for a long time. I used to be all about tinted moisturisers, til blemishes appeared and I was all for a full coverage foundation, however I am still itching to try this, so perhaps I'll pick up a sample on Friday too. This Laura Mercier body souffle smells absoloutley divine, seriously it smells SO good. Putting this on after a nice long bath would just be pure heaven! Lastly on the Make-Up front is this Nars highlighter. Forever wanting products that give me a luminious glow, and especially with the winter months approaching imminently, it's about time I purchased this. I can see this looking really beautiful with a peachy-toned blush and a natural flawless base.

Clothes... all of these, bar the bag and the Nike Blazers are Topshop. What can I say? I love Topshop! After work on Friday, I'm purchasing all of these FINALLY. I think it's safe to say I am fully embracing the camo trend. Like my Topshop wishlist post, I featured the MIGHTY boots and the Camo Jacket, and they're both still firm favourites and I am still eager to purchase these beauties. The boots are just gorgeous and will look lovely with jeans, leggings and dresses. I know I will definitely get a hell of a lot of wear out of the boots! I can't wait. The 'Geek' t-shirt I originally saw a few weeks back in a burgundy colour, which I did prefer, however I still really like this, and I love t-shirts with motifs and writing, and think it's perfect with the camo jacket, leggings, and flats or even the Nike Blazers. Of course, had to include a knitted jumper in here too, camo of course. So beautiful. Will look pretty over dresses, which speaking of dresses I just adore this red printed floral tea dress. I can see myself wearing it with a leather biker and the boots featured here!

How long have I wanted Nike Blazers for now? Seems like FOREVER. On Friday these babies will be mine. Not in this colour though! I'm thinking a cherry/burgundy colour, hoping they have them in my size in Footasylum! *please do*

Lastly, I really need a new bag. I have so many bags, but it has occured to me that I don't have a black bag. Who doesn't have a black bag? Seriously! Most of my bags are either tan/cream or like a dusty pink colour, so It's about time I bought myself a black one. A big one. I love this slouchy style satchel. More than likely I'll have a look around Topshop, as long as I get a bag I don't care!

I could probably be here forever with wishlists, who couldn't be? I love making lists of what I want!

Hope you're all okay! I'm currently feeling very sorry for myself, as I'm sick, solidering through it though and going into work! Think I got the worst of it yesterday, thankfully.
Much Love
Rebekah

Current Wishlist

Untitled #31
Hello beauties!
Got a little beauty wishlist for you today, just a few products I'm yearning for. I've put some of these on a list I've handed to my lovely Mother for my birthday, which is in 27 days ;)!

1. Estée Lauder Invisible Fluid
I think this has featured on a wishlist I've done previously. Yep, still haven't purchased it :( I do want to, just keep umming and aahing over it, you know when you're just like 'Do I Don't I?'
But, I love this, so I'm going to have to bite the bullet and go for it!

2. Shu Uemura pore clarifying cleansing oil.
After receiving a sample of this in the Harrods Glossybox I instantly fell in love with it. The way it melts your make up off so effortlessly and delicately just made me smile and like wow, I still need this in my life!

3. Chanel Soleil Tan De Chanel Bronze.
I've been wanting this for a good while now, after testing my friends out I thought it was just amazing and i've lusted over it ever since! Birthday money spend I think maybe?!

4. Benefit bronzer/highlighting duo.
I already have a similar one to this, but you can never have too many right?
I actually own a ridiculous amount of highlighters, but I just love how pretty the packaging is, all pink and cute! Yes, that's right buying a product just for the packaging. I'm sad!

5. Benefit the porefessional primer.
I think this has been on everyone's radar in recent weeks, and it's certainly on mine. I love primers, and this one minimizes the appearance of pores too? Even better! I'm always on the hunt for pore minimizer products and have yet to find a product that I truly love. Any of you lovely ladies have any recommendations?

6. Mac CremeBlend Blush 'So Sweet So Easy'
Love cream blushes so naturally this has to be featured on my list. And, it's mac too. I love this shade, as you know me I love my bright pinks!

7. Philosophy Purity Cleanser.
Everyone are familiar with Philosophy,I love their packaging too much and I've been desperate to try something from them, and thought maybe a cleanser would be a good starting point. Formulated to cleanse, tone and melt away all face and eye make up in one step, amongst other stuff they claim to do. I like the sound of it!

8. Mac Lipstick
I am *pretty* sure this is the 'Cockney' shade... Yes?
Anyway, I love this and I want it. I'm going to get it!

9. L.I.L.Y by Stella McCartney Perfume.
This is gorgeous! I love the bottle too, it's really pretty. I never buy perfume for myself, I always receive them off other people for presents! And well, it 
is my birthday coming up, presents... this please!

I am now going to get ready 
(yes, being off work makes it okay for me to be lazy ;)!) 
but first, I need a cuppa!

Hope you're all having a fabulous Thursday! 
Just realised its a bank holiday weekend too, aw yay! :)

Much love
Rebekah

for as little as 14pounds!

My Signature Look

I love Polyvore (www.polyvore.com) I think it's such a fabulous website, 
being able to create sets, templates and collections, with clothes and beauty. 
Check out my personal polyvore, I have been neglecting it but...

The set I created below is my sort of look. Grungy but girly. The burgendy lace
collar dress is the type of dresses I would wear on a night out, a day out, it's
such a versatile dress. Team it up with the bow heels at night, or a pair of
 brogues for the day.  And, every girl needs a leather biker jacket in their
wardrobe to toughen up any outfit. It's a staple. It really is.

Anyone who knows me, knows I love my eyeliner.
Alexa Chung esque winged eyeliner. 
Ahh, just classic, and beautiful :)
