Forever 21/H&M Haul

So Forever 21 opened in Glasgow yesterday and I'm so happy because I've been excited for it to open for ages. I'd only ever been to one in London before and I was in a rush so I didn't have time to properly look around. But this shop is amazing oh my god. It's got three floors, it's absolutely massive, it's so pretty inside and the clothes are gorgeous. I tried not to spend too much because I'm going to London next month but that didn't really work out, and I managed to go to H&M while I was in town, well done Hannah. 

Forever 21

Top - £11.50

I really loved this top because I've been looking for a plain-ish white tshirt for a while to wear with virtually anything. I really liked this one because it has a really nice material and has a pattern on it so it's a bit different too. 

Jumper - £14.75

It's still freezing cold with snow on the ground here, so I'm still going to get a lot of wear out of this. Again I can wear it with anything, but I got it as something to wear with jeans. 

Skirt - £16.75

I absolutely fell in love with this as soon as I saw it. I probably won't wear it until the weather is a bit warmer, but I'll wear it loads in the summer, especially on holiday. It's got a really nice pattern on it and it goes really nicely with tshirts. 

Key necklace - £3.15

Arrow necklace - £2.40

I haven't worn any jewellery apart from my watch in ages, and I'm really fussy with jewellery in general, and I hate anything too big. So I completely fell in love with Forever 21 even more when I saw their stand dedicated to subtle/pretty necklaces. I could have bought the whole stand but I'd be poor so I decided on these two. 

H&M

Top - £14.99

I feel like H&M either has really lovely, reasonably priced clothes or really plain, overpriced clothes (vests,  bad quality band shirts, etc) and it seems to be that some shops have completely different clothes from others. But I could have bought the whole shop today, I was seriously so in love with nearly everything there. I bought this top because I'm really lacking in tops that go with skater skirts, and this is so pretty and would go really nicely. 

Skirt - £12.99

So I went and bought a skater skirt to go with it, even though I have plenty already. But skater skirts are my favourite item of clothing ever and read is my favourite colour for clothes so I'll get plenty of wear out of this.

So if anyone wants to donate some money to my ever decreasing London fund, then please feel free. I've just realised that this is my first ever blog post completely dedicated to clothes which is really weird because I'm a lot more interested in clothes and fashion than I am in make up and beauty. But anyway most of my posts will probably be fashion related over the next few months because I'm bound to take more trips to Forever 21 and H&M now I've found that I can get a lot more for my money than just buying all of my clothes from topshop. (But topshop will always be my one true love). 

Frizzy Hair Care

My hair is naturally curly, and one of the big problems that often comes with curly hair is frizzy hair. I've tried so many products and methods to try to stop my hair from being frizzy over the years, but only a few of them have really worked. Here are a few that have actually really helped.

1. Shampoo/Conditioner

Organix Macadamia Oil Conditioner and Brazilian Keratin Therapy Shampoo 

I started using these a few months ago and they're the reason I can now wear my hair naturally. I've tried using the Brazilian Keratin Therapy conditioner and the Macadamia Oil shampoo too but I feel this combination really stops my hair from being frizzy and makes the curls in my hair look more defined? That's the best way I can describe it anyway. I'd really recommend trying any of the Organix products because they have full ranges for every type of hair/

2. Serum/Cream

Tresemme Split Remedy 

This hasn't necessarily stopped my hair from being frizzy but I always brush this through my hair after washing it and it makes the ends look a lot nicer/neater. 

Organix Macadamia Oil Dry Styling Oil and Brazilian Keratin Therapy Anti Breakage Serum

These make my hair sit a lot nicer if I brush them through after I've washed it. They really really help make my hair look more curly rather than frizzy and I really like them. 

The Body Shop Coconut Oil

I've had this for about a year now and it still hasn't run out yet it's the product that's helped my hair the most. Again it makes the curls in my hair a lot more defined and I just put it through the ends of my hair when it's dry.

Charles Worthington Takeaways Frizz Free Smoothing Creme

I take this to school every day and it's so so handy. It works in exactly the same way as the coconut oil but it's really handy to take away (that was not deliberate at all I swear).

John Freida Frizz-Ease Perfecting Creme

I only bought this and tried it out today, since I was running out of Coconut Oil and I really love it so far. It works in the same way as the oil and seems like it will be a really good replacement. 

3.Glossing Sprays

VO5 Miracle Mist Glossing Spray

This smells like heaven. I usually use it last and it really helps my hair.

Pure Coconut Glossing Spray

This was really cheap in Semi-Chem and it's nearly exactly the same as the VO5 spray but it smells of coconut.

4. Hairspray 

John Freida Frizz-Ease Hairspray 

If you've read the rest of this blog post, ignore it. Just go out and buy this hairspray. I'm so fussy with hairspray and I usually don't really like how it makes my hair look or feel, but this is amazing. I only bought it today and it completely takes any frizz out of my hair. 

So if you have frizzy hair then I really hope some or any of these products help your hair like they've helped mine because frizzy hair can be really really annoying. 

February Favourites/March Wishlist

It's March already wow where did winter go? I'm not complaining at all though. This month I've bought some really nice things and got the chance to wear/use things that I'd maybe forgotten I had or hadn't gotten the chance to before.

Favourite things from February 

Satchel/handbag from Urban Outfitters

I got this as a present so I'm not sure what price it is, but I'm sure it was between £30-£40. Ever since I got this bad I've been using it all of the time. I'm really fussy when it comes to handbags so when I finally found one that's good quality and that I actually really like, I made sure to use it a lot. 

Studded ankle boots - £40 from Topshop

These are probably my favourite shoes ever. They're a really nice colour and they go with just about anything. I've worn them a lot and they haven't shown any signs of the heel wearing away which is good because that's happened with near enough every pair of shoes I've ever owned. 

Rimmel matte top coat - £4.59 from Boots, Superdrug etc

I've been looking for this for ages because I was stupid enough to think that they were lots of different colours instead of one top coat, but I'm in love. Although it takes ages to dry, it's worth it and it makes nail polish look a lot nicer.

Philosophy 'pure grace' perfume - £28.80 from John Lewis

I'm really really fussy with perfumes, I hate the majority of celebrity fragrances because they're too strong/sweet. Philosophy's perfumes are perfect though, and although they discontinued my favourite fragrance ever, they still sell this one which is nearly as good. Despite being light, it lasts all day and it has a really spring-like fragrance? I don't really know how to describe it, but it's lovely anyway.

March Wishlist

Cord Pinafore - £42 from Topshop

I have never been so in love with an item of clothing in my whole life. Everything about this apart from the price maybe is perfect. It's beautiful. 

Essie 'Fiji' Nail Polish - £7.99 from Boots

I already have two Essie polishes - a nail strengthener and a top coat and they've helped the condition of my nails so much. I've heard a lot of people say that their colours are really good quality and nice and everyone seems to love this one so I'll probably buy it soon.

Satchel - £28 from Topshop

I only really have one bag that I wear a lot and this is the only other one I've found that I really like. It's a good size and an alright price for topshop and I have an excuse to buy it so that's always good.

Benefit 'Dandelion' Blusher - £23.50 from Boots

This really isn't cheap but I had it a few years ago and it's the best blusher I've ever had. It took ages to run out and I used it every single day so it is worth the money, and it's really light which is good because of how pale I am.

Skater Skirt - £18 from River Island

Skater skirts are my absolute favourite item of clothing and I've been looking for some that are a bit different/more original for a while and this one is perfect.

T-bar shoes - £30 from Topshop

I'm really lacking in nice pairs of flat shoes and these are really lovely and would go with anything.

This list is probably for people who are a lot richer than I am but you never know I might be able to resist buying two CDs for £10 and candles this month and maybe save up for something worth buying.
