Impromptu shopping!

So it is my Granddad's sixty fifth birthday dinner tomorrow night, and me being me forgot that I still need to get him a gift, meaning that today after class I had to make a dash into town with my friend Amy. Luckily for me I found a good Granddad gift (cotton pocket tissues) and somehow managed to pick up a few bits for myself..

I got this lovely dress from Zara , in my opinion the pictures don't do it much justice. It is a really soft pink colour a classic shape that goes in at the waist then out at the hips, it also has a lovely exposed back detail that adds a bit of interest to the dress and gives its classic structure more edge. I got this in a medium but I think it comes up a little big so I would recommend trying a smaller size than your usual before you buy. It also comes in a beautiful green colour and I was torn between the two, so I might treat myself to that version later..

On my travels I ended up in the MAC store, but as I was well behaved I managed to not go crazy and spend a fortune! It was hard trust me..Anyway I picked up a fresh bottle of face and body as mine was running low. This is probably my favorite mac foundation as it is build-able and gives me a nice fresh glow. Mac have a great shade selection which is why I love their products and it has a shade to suit any skin tone. I wear shade C1 and I am pretty pale just incase you were wondering.











I am having a huge thing for scented candles at the moment, after receiving a few of the the Yankee candle jar versions at Christmas. And on my way home I passed by the Yankee candle stall so stopped to have a sniff. I decided just to get a couple of mini ones first of all to try them out before buying a jar as they burn forever, and that would be awful if it was a stinky scent. The ones I chose were Bahama breeze which smells of sweets and the green one is Vanilla lime, I also got a little holder thing to burn them in at the stall for really cheap £1 or something. The mini candles were really affordable at £1.75 each and burn for an amazing fifteen hours!








Let me know what you think of the layout, did you make any spontaneous purchases this week?
Hopefully I will have another post up before Monday, as that is when my exams start.

I hope you all have a fantastic weekend!
