amyjaneoldfield: Summer

Showing posts with label Summer. Show all posts

Hey guys! So I recently got asked by a company Cheapass Sunglasses if I would like to try a pair of there glasses and give an honest review? Of course since it's summer! I decided to choose the pair The New Black Clubmaster because I loved the style, modern yet stylish. Now before I carry on I wanner say how affordable these sunglasses are, yes! They are £7.95 each for Women's, Kids or Men's, plus if you decided to buy two pairs it is £15 and for any extra it is £5 each!!! PLUS FREE POSTAGE!!!! (To the UK).

The glasses arrived super fast, in a safe packaging with bubble wrap and there own plastic bag + I got a free candy sweet!(Hehehe thank you it was Yummy!!!) When I saw them I instantly fell in love, words couldn't describe honestly I was shocked by how good quality and stylish these glasses where for only £7.95??!?! They have a silver trim around the top and sit very comfortable on my nose, I had no problem with them irritating behind the ear either and I wore them for a good 3-4 hours straight! They worked perfect in sunlight and when I went into the shaded areas they fitted great on top of my head!!! I just love these and honestly would rate this company to anyone who is looking to buy a pair, they offer so many different styles suited for everyone.

So it's July, the perfect summery month and of course the month of my Birthday! ;) So I thought I would do a favorites post, as I haven't wrote one of these in a while. I have tried to include various products throughout!

To begin with, the Fireside Treats Yankee Candle which is sooo sugary and sweet scented I just love. I am a huge lover for all scents like this, no matter what time of the year it is! Then of course, my favorite primer? Well the Laura Geller Tinted Spackle, I love this because it not only holds my makeup in place literally ALL day but it is tinted too and looks perfect on its own, which I think is a huge bonus for the summer season! Then, foundations? Well, my all time favorite for summer or for a lightweight foundation is the Bare Minerals Original foundation. I apply this and it instantly gives me a lift of colour but it provides a good coverage which I think is more than suitable for the summer period in hot weathers.

But for the evenings or even for "clubbing" I always like to go for a liquid foundation, my newest favorite is the Clinique it provides good coverage but the colour is also perfect and it hasn't irritated my skin in any way! Plus a little tip for you guys, If I have a special occasion and want maximum coverage I use both Clinique and Bare Minerals foundations and it looks absolutely flawless! And finally, body butter! Since it has been very warm the past few weeks I find after a nice shower or bath applying body butter to my skin (Usually my arms) it feels so smoothing and the scent just relaxes me that little more! Plus I find it does help to soften my skin :-)

July Favorites!

So I was recently going through all my nail varnishes and found this beautiful bright coral orange nail varnish off BarryM and was so excited to use it! Of course before using it I shook the bottle and then applied it to my nails, at first when I applied it was bright and perfect just as I expected. But after about 30 seconds it instantly dried into a very "plastic" like orange, its very pale and not the vibrant colour that you painted on it looks very dried out and worn down with no shine.... I left this nail varnish to dry then the next morning I took the pictures for my blog and instantly noticed the paint was starting to chip away already! I have to be completely honest I am not a fan of this colour I think its more because of how it dries and how it is so not lasting..

Hey guys! So I recently wrote about two Flamingo Wax Melts I purchased (read here), after falling in love my mum decided to subscribe to the monthly subscription on behalf of me! (Which i'm super grateful for!) As new subscribers you receive a FREE wax melt holder with your first order and everything arrived yesterday!

It all came in a big cardboard box with "Frigle" tape, at first I was shocked by the size of the box, once I unwrapped it it was full of polystyrene type things.. (Not sure of the name haha!) It had a white box under them which had this beautiful wax melt holder! A small card which had details about the melts in July's box, and then a small cardboard box which had blue tissue paper (Super cute!) which unwrapped to a bag with the Melts sticker on it!

The cute black and white stripe bag reminded me of being in a candy shop, getting your pix'n'mix! I had to honestly admit the scents are SOOO strong, I could smell such refreshing and fruity scents as soon as I opened the big cardboard box. Inside it had the 8 wax melts for July.

So lets begin with the melts in this box!

1. Raspberry & Salted Caramel
This melt is so strong! You instantly smell the raspberry but it twists itself instantly with a Salted Caramel infusion, this is one of my new favorites it's so sugary and sweet I just love it! Click here to view

2. Cucumber & Melon
I must admit I am not a huge fan of this melt, unfortunately it's strongly scented of Cucumber personally I can't seem to get any smell of the Melon as the Cucumber is so strong. Plus I am not a fan of Cucumber anyway, although this scent is very refreshing and perfect for hot summer days I think this would help relax and feel fresh! Click here to view

3. Mojito
Oh my! This melt reminds me so much of what you expect a Mojito to smell like! It has a very strong scent of mint leafs which has a very citrus twist, i'm yet to decide if I like this scent or not... But it's very strong and again refreshing for hot days! Click here to view

4. Green Tomato Leaf - EXCLUSIVE
This melt is exclusive to only Melt Crow subscribers, unfortunately you won't be able to purchase this (Unless Flamingo Candles release later on in the year!). The scent is very fresh, reminding me of being in a green house or the garden. You can easily smell the "leaf" like scent but with a hint of tomato's twist it is very noticeable and refreshing.

5. Lemon Curd
I have found my new favorite! I would of honestly never thought I would love this melt but I really have fallen for it! It has such a strong lemon scent but its twisted into a sugary fresh smell making me feel all excited every time! Click here to view

6. Oriental Lotus & Rose Otto
This melt has a very floral scent to it, personally you can smell the rose a lot more! It's very light scented almost feeling warming to a relaxing evening, I can honestly say this is another favorite of mine! I just love it, plus the scent isn't too over powering its just perfect! Click here to view

7. Pink Lemonade
I have to say this a top favorite, it's so "refreshing" as I keep saying but all these are perfect for hot summer days. This melt reminds me of roses and fizzy sugary drinks, the scent is powerful and strong but smells so perfect! Click here to view

8. Island Breeze - EXCLUSIVE
I love love love love this smell, its so fresh and clean scented. I have to honestly say this is in my top favorites, I'm just so gutted that its exclusive only I hope they will sell this soon on the site because I have truly fallen in love with this!

Overall, this is my first subscription with Flamingo Candles and I have to honestly say 100% I am impressed. Not only with the packaging, but how perfect the scents are and just how much of a good deal this is!!! If you haven't yet click here to find out more about the subscription deal.

Hey guys! So I recently subscribed to the Glamour magazine, and thought why not share a few pages and super awesome info with you guys! Especially since this is the August 2015 edition so won't be on the shelves for another month.

To begin with, most Glamour Magazine I have ever received usually come with a freebie... Although I was rather shocked to find this one never! Plus you usually get little simple packets stuck to pages right? Nope, not in this magazine either! You are simply buying the magazine for its pages and info only this time. To begin with, the first major thing which caught my eye was the Topshop competition!

This is an amazing contest which can be entered very easily, following the instructions of course! To win, 7 minutes inside the store to carry as much as you can! Personally I have no idea how I would even cope, I would go mad, wearing them on my head and all as well as carrying! I'l be sure to enter it soon, but first I need to scroll through all my photos to find one I think will be suitable! ;)

And of course, as I was reading through this majorly caught my eye! That's right, the summer edit which is worth over £93.99 for only £17.99. I headed over to the website straight away to checkout what was inside, to begin with the products I was super excited about was; Vita Liberata full size brush, Nails Inc, L'occitane and the Bourjois crayon. I'm yet to be 100% sure if I will buy this box but I am hoping I will be able to!

Thank you for reading guys! Be sure to comment below your thoughts, will you be entering the Topshop competition? & Will you be considering on buying The Glamour Summer Edit box? + Don't forget to follow my blog over on the home page! X

Hey guys! So I thought I would include a post about my new favorite outfit which I personally love for the summer!

So to begin with, the trousers. They are from River Island (Size 8) which are 3/4 style at the ankles, I love this style its so perfect for the summer or walks. The style is like majority of smart trousers, which is another things I have recently become obsessed with! They have two deep pockets at the front and two fashion statement pockets on the back (for show only). With a super cute black and peachy pink colour pattern with a zip up front and clip to shut.

And then, of course... The bright orange vest top which is a v-shape at the front, this is a size 8 from Topshop personally, I find Topshop sizes to be larger than what they are! I tucked this into my trousers (loosely of course) for this look. Although I must say this top is very bright, making it very difficult when trying to add Instagram filters if you have a contrast (like my hair) ;)

Hey guys! So I recently received five EOS lip balms, I tried two of these previously and wasn't a huge fan although that could of been down to the "flavors".

1. Strawberry Sorbet - Pink (TOP LEFT CORNER)
This is my favorite out of all EOS lip balms I've tried so far! It is very sweet, fresh and pretty much "strawberry" flavor! The smell is refreshing and very appetizing making you want to apply it all the time!

2. Medicated Tangerine - Orange (TOP RIGHT CORNER)
This EOS lip balm is not a favorite! In fact it is probably one of the worst, why? Because I'm just not a fan of the scent I'm not 100% sure how to describe this, all I can say is it reminds me of some kind of horrible medicine! The scent is just beyond not appealing and puts me off applying..

3. Honeysuckle Honeydew - Green (CENTER)
This is very useful for those suffering with Gluten issues as it is Gluten Free! :-) The scent? Well its very "clean" reminds me of sweet melons and is an "ok" appeal. When applied I noticed this one did last a lot longer and moisturized my lips more than any of the other EOS Lip balms used? (Not sure why)

4. Raspberry Pomegrante - Red (BOTTOM LEFT CORNER)
This lip balm is again a new favorite! The flavor is so fruity, fresh and just pure tasty! I love this balm simply because of how attractive the scent/flavor is!
5. BlueBerry Acai - Blue (BOTTOM RIGHT CORNER)
This EOS lip balm is very sweet and a very strong blueberry flavor to it! It does genuinely want you to lick your lips another favorite! :-)

Overall, I have had a new experience with these lip balms I think depending on the flavor you use influences your love for these. Although I have had an open experience I do still think the shape of the product isn't the best and struggle applying to the inner corner of my lips (I find I end up using my finger on the product then applying to inner corners)...

Have you guys ever tried any EOS lip balms? Whats your thoughts? Favorites? Do you struggle applying like me? Let me know in the comments! Xo

This top was ordered online from Quiz for £17.99, the color is perfect for summer I feel any peach/coral color makes you look more tanned and summery! This top has an embellished neck of two rows of small shimmering diamonds. The material is a chiffon type which has two layers, I ordered a size 10 as I was unsure of the fit and prefer a baggy style and this fits perfect! It's loose and just perfect and stylish :-)

These trousers where bought online from Ravi Famous in the color "pink", I thought these would be great for the summer plus I loved the color! When they arrived the first thing I noticed was how light they were! The material is very thing and super super stretchy! Which would be great for summer, when I put them on the first noticeable issue is they are very very see through! As they are trousers, you can pretty much see your underwear! So I 100000% advise you wear some which aren't noticeable and less "colorful", they zip up the front with a clip to shut at the top.

This top was bought offline from Ravi Famous for only £3!!!!!, the item is "one size" but personally I think it would fit sizes 6 8 10 12 - the materially is very stretchy it could possibly fit a size 14 - 16 (possibly!). When this top arrived I instantly knew it would be perfect for summer, it is very lightweight thin material (but not see through). It isn't a white color and more of a cream, with pattern on the top!

These shorts were bought off Ravi Famous, the are a leather look material with a unique fashionable lace hole pattern at the bottom. They have two pockets either side on the front, with a tie at the front (which is for show). The material on the inside is very soft, almost like velvet making these shorts very comfy to wear! The tops of them are stretchy material, with an elastic waist in the color "navy".
