Hi again cherry drops!
Okay, there's no may about it - I went shopping. I didn't spend too much time actually shopping because it was a Sunday and it's coming up to Christmas so it's pretty darn crazy and I am not too good in crowds! None the less, I did manage to get a few things so I thought I would share them with you!
So the first place I ventured was to Currys. I know, an odd place to start... but hear me out. I have been after a good camera for ages and I didn't know what I wanted for Christmas off my parents. I was looking and looking and I finally decided on the camera I wanted and my parents said they'd put half to for my present. So all of these pictures are of somewhat better quality! I'm not an expert but hey, I can try haha. I picked out the Sony A5000 and it is beautiful. It has a flip up screen so I can take selfies and everything!
Next, I toddled on over to Superdrug. I wanted a few things from there but with it being Black Friday weekend, a lot of the things I'd looked at online weren't in the shop - booo!
My hair is super thin, super fine and super soft so I need all the help I can to get textured, big hair. I love the Vo5 Plump it Up range and the Give Me Texture range. They do pretty much what they say on the can. I picked up the Give Me Texture dry texturising spray this time round.
I love me some eye lashes, but I'm not brave enough to get the big, thick black ones that touch my eye brows but these Eylure Naturals ones are just lovely. They are so delicate and they're a mix of black and brown eye lashes to make them look a bit more subtle. People always complement my lashes when I have these on and when I tell them they're fake, they never believe me haha! Big thumbs up from me!
I always seem to head right to the Essie nail counter when I go to Superdrug and when I saw this purple one, I needed it. Well, I didn't actually need it, but I definitely reaally wanted it. I don't actually have many purples in my nail collection. I have lots of pinks/reds and blues but I really like this one. Its in the shade Sexy Divide and I actually have it on right now haha.
What's that Leanne? You've gone and bought another plum shade lipstick? No, not you surely?! Well, italics Leanne, I have actually. You can't really see the colour properly on any of the pictures I took but it is such a pretty colour. It's also a really good consistency and I just love plum lipsticks. I picked this up in the shade 260 Always Plum.
Ah, the good old Lasting Perfection concealer! There's not much to say about this other than I was running out and I haven't found another concealer I like as much as this. It's in the shade warm medium which is number 3.
I have finally picked up my copy of Girl Online by Zoe (Zoella). I was super excited to finally get this. Zoe was the reason that I got into blogging and watching YouTube and things so it was super good to have something like this... proud moment!
I then wandered round shops looking for a dress for my friends 21st Birthday party and I just couldn't find out anything that I liked, and it wasn't until I went into Simply Be that I found a dress that I absolutely fell in love with.
It's a simple swing style dress, which is one of my favourite styles of dresses as they are just super comfy! It falls about 3/4 of the way down my thigh and has the most gorgeous lace detail on the sleeves. I'm just going to need a spray tan because I am super pale haha!! I loved it so much that I picked it up in the black aswell.
It's just super floaty and I can dress it up and down. It feels like such good quality and it was such a good price. The only problem is, you can see your bra strap through the lace paneling so if that sort of thing bothers you, then make sure you have a good strapless bra and some tit tape for good measure. Well done Simply Be, you have saved my bacon!
My last stop in town was to Primark. I just can't resist a walk around, although it was super busy so I didn't stroll around for very long.

I did pick up this blazer style jacket. I mean, it's not practical for this time of year because it's pretty thin and it has rolled up sleeves but I just absolutely adore it! It just adds the right amount of smart to an outfit. It is super comfy and it's not restricting at all so good on you Primark!
Warning, mundane buy alert! I know they're boring but we all need warm tights in this weather! I think I have a tights gremlin living in my draw because they're always going missing or they have holes in them so god only knows what happens to them haha!
Last but by no means least, I nipped into Asda to pick up some baubles for my Christmas tree! As my room is all pink, blue and white, I decided to buy some decorations that would match.
This is just a big box of 46 baubles (I'm pretty sure that I won't use all of those). They're all different sizes and some are glittery and I just love the colours of them!
These are my favourite ones because they're all glittery and they have stars on them and the colours are just so pretty!
And for the top of my little tree, I have this little angel. I'm going to call her Maggie....
So there is my little haul! What things have you bought recently that you love? Any tips on being a better photographer?
Happy 1st of December too people!
Lots of love, hugs and a dash of lipstick,
Leanne xo
